Preorder MGS4, Get Into MGO Beta!

Vito Raliffe | February 26, 2008 | News | Playstation 3 
So we've already heard of the possible June 12th release date for Metal Gear Solid 4, but what you may not know is that if you preorder MGS4, you'll have guaranteed entry into the Metal Gear Online beta set to hit late April.
The title says it all. Those who preorder Metal Gear Solid 4 will have guaranteed access into the multiplayer beta test of Metal Gear Online, which starts in late April. MGS4 comes bundled with a basic “Starter Pack” for Metal Gear Online, and now MGS fans can test out the game themselves before official release. I guess I’ll reserve it when I go to pick up GOW: Chains of Olympus.

I remember how excited I was when I heard there was going to be a beta test for MGO way back when, and then my disappointment when I discovered the websites that broke the news forgot to mention it was for Japan only. Now at least I’ll be able to play a more final build of the game. I just hope it won’t interfere too much with my Grand Theft Auto IV time.

    Holy shit. Sign me up. This is going to be the first game I've preordered since Metal Gear Solid 3.

    The question is, who am I reserving this from? Sony?

    I don't get it. If I preorder the game at my local GameStop then how the hell is Konami going to know my PSN or whatever it is they need?

      Exactly. That's why I'm assuming it's gotta go through something else.

    The same way EA did with Burnout Paradise. You'll probably get a code that you later use as 'authorization' when you sign up.

    I thought that MGS4 came with Metal Gear:Online anyway?

      It comes with a Starter Pack for it.
