Metal Gear Solid 4 launches worldwide

The highly anticipated PS3 title, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, has officially launched around the world and eager fans are snapping up their copies as if they were made out of gold.

Midnight launches occurred everywhere from San Francisco, New York, Japan, London and all points in between. MGS4 comes in a dizzying array of game packages besides the plain-Jane version of the video game--the Limited Edition, the PS3 40GB MGS4 Limited Bundle, and the MGS4 PS3 80GB Bundle Pack.

With so many versions to choose from, it seems that any diehard Metal Gear Solid fan will be able to buy just the right one of his or her dreams.

Konami said of Metal Gear Solid 4:

"Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots not only represents the height of the stealth-action genre, but it also defines what it is to be a next-generation game by setting new standards in gameplay, storytelling and graphics," said Anthony Crouts, Vice President of Marketing for Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc.

"We are incredibly excited for fans and gamers alike to reunite with all their favorite characters from the Metal Gear Solid saga while experiencing a game unlike anything they have seen before. We truly believe Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots symbolizes a milestone for videogames, and will be remembered for years to come."
