eBay.co.uk. I think it was from a UK seller. You have to be patient before a good deal comes up there, though.

Sorry I didn't answer before. They went with Gustava.

You can also lay more mines in MG2, it seems. And for some reason, the music sounds a little different, like Zanzibar Breeze. Hard to describe, but judge for yourself.

Wikipedia wrote:after finishing the game, when the Game Clear message is presented on-screen pressing Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, X, O makes Big Boss remark "One More to Go...". This is a possible hint that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the <B>Patriots</B> is the last game of the series.
I've only found that cheat code on Wikipedia, so I wonder if it's true or not. :?

I think the last time I played I was saved at the Volgin battle, so I might try it soon.
