I forgot the card reader at the office.. with all the scans and pictures I'd taken. I promise I'll go to the office tomorrow and bring them home for uploading, sorry about the delay.. But rest assured they are way better than these ones.

BTW

THANK GOD (AND KOJIMA, SHINKAWA AND KONAMI) ...

THE COVER IS REVERSIBLE!!!!!


(Well, not exactly, but it does have beautiful Shinkawa san art there.. and that makes me a happy man.. I didn't like the American cover....and even more so when it appeared in the Premium Pack, it is too "look!!! there are explosions and action in this game!")

It's times like these that I wish I took my Japanese language lessons more seriously, and saved my money for moving to Japan.

True gaming Heaven.

Hi!
Does anyone of you know if the Japanese version of MGS3:SE has english subtitles?
If yes, i think i'll buy the premium package.Is Play-Asia a good choice to buy the MGS3 PP?
I hope the European version will have a better dvd cover than the Us and japanese.

Just wondering, does anyone know the general pricepoint that PSP games are being sold for in Japan?

I didn't get Acid, it is a friend's. I am not interested in the game at all, though maybe I'll get it at some point if I like it whenever I play it. What I did play was not bad fro a card game, and the graphics were really nice and polished.. though the art for the characters is really odd.


I'll collect all the differences I can, and post them here later.

Yeah,I just saw those images of the game cover for MGS3. Yikes! I didn't think they would do that. Don't worry Artemio, once I finish the scans today, I'll have that and the Chirashi sent out so you don't have to see more of the American/Japanese box cover.

It's interesting that the cards used for AC!D look like the unproduced trading card game that was shown on the Document of Metal Gear Solid 2 disc. It probably still retains some of the card based action and strategy that was made for the TCG. Perhaps they might even release the card game scince they released AC!D. We'll see.


Interesting, I just noticed that AC!D isn't produced or Directed by Hideo Kojima. I wonder how much involvment, if any, he had on this project.

I keep editing.
Another interesting thing... Is that a "Region 2" symbol on the back of the package for AC!D? I thought the PSP was supposed to by universal. I didn't check the UMD packages at the store near me, so I can't comment too much on the symbol and the words under it.

Now you know why I am not interested so far =P

And BTW, thanks for the concern on the cover of the game, take your time ok? Thansk a lot =), I can survive with the alternate art hehehe

There's a lot of people that still doesn't have the game, there are tons of countries in which it has not been released, and there are a lot of persons that didn't want to see the trailers.. tahts' why the title is "trailer level spoilers" just for the Shagohod....

The stand alone version of MGS3 in Japan has both the American art (in limited numbers) and the Japanese art, which as seen before has the white background and the art of Snake and The Boss on it. Just thought I'd clear that up. I bought both, because....well because I'm dumb.

PSP games are slightly cheaper than PS2 games, I dunno, by about 1500 yen or so from what I remember. I haven't bought one yet, but I might get one soon if there are games for it.
