MGS4 is the reason I bought a PS3 and i'm not missing out on this!

Anyone else feeling the same way?

So I was wondering, If you pre-order the game from a gamestop. Will I have to pick it up from the same store I pre-ordered it from, or is it any gamestop?

I also wonder how they'll distribute the beta, probably through a PSN download.

What did you read? So in order for this to happen, you have to wait until your retailer starts this deal to pre-order it?

It says it'll be a nation wide promotion, meaning US only.
Konami and retailers are probably working out the deal now. It'll probably sometime before its official w/ the retailers.

Maybe you should wait a week and see if anything Official is made, so you can pre-order it correctly.

I'm going to look into this a bit more. I pre-ordered this back when I picked up DMC4 and want to know if people on board prior to this announcement will still be able to be a part of the beta.
