So, as GS promised, those who preordered or reserved MGS4 would get a code that would let you access the online play beta being released the 17th. It also came with a short DVD explaining all of the Snake's relationship to each other and foxhound.
The DVD is short, only about 25 minutes to the actual movie. The movie is just gameplay with talking over it and the occasional spreadsheet showing peoples relations to each other.
The chapters are:
CHAPTER 001: Prologue (Prologue)
CHAPTER 002: Metal Gear 20th Anniversary
CHAPTER 003: Big Boss - The Origin Of Snake
CHAPTER 004: Liquid - The Second Snake
CHAPTER 005: Solidus - The Third Snake
CHAPTER 006: Solid - The First Snake
Also, there are all the official trailers on this DVD. It's pretty cool, there are some that i haven't seen on YouTube yet, but that could just be poor search results.
I'd go throw down $5 for this if you haven't. Even if it isnt much, it looks pretty next to the rest of my Metal Gear Solid collection.

about me
Hey Dtoiders. I'm just like you guys, i love video games, and video game related stuff. I dig music, tv, all the regular shit, and i love my PS3. I think all the next gen consoles are good in their own ways, but i can only afford one. I'm pretty average.

I have the first volume and this second one looks sweet even though I dont have a PS3 for that MGO beta.
I'm tempted to pre-order this just to sell someone my Beta key. haha.
that sounds pretty sweet, i have to pick mine up. I considered the beta key to be the real meat of it anyway though
Im all about the beta
I hope my EB games in Canada will get this DVD, I preordered mine a couple of days ago
I picked mine up yesterday. I haven't watched the DVD yet but I plan to tonight. I'm excited about the beta also.
I could care less about the beta, but I want that DVD.
The pre-order bonus disc that came with Subsistance was sweet, and I'd like to see part 2.
I get it for free, MUAHAHAHAHA!
Also, I'll see if I can snag some extras as Dtoid giveaways!
It really is an amazing disc. I just barely finished MGS2 for the first time, so I'm on an MGS overload right now, and I love it.
