This is it! It’s less than 24 hours away until the release of the most anticipated game of 2008 hits US store shelves. The release is already under way in other parts of the world. As I predicted, many stores will be getting a midnight release, but only in popular areas. A Best Buy store in West Hollywood is having a very special release party, with autograph signings featuring Solid Snake’s US VA, David Hayter. No fair, California!

Sadly for me, I won’t be able to get my hands on Metal Gear Solid 4 until the end of the month. It’s no problem. These few months of dodging potential spoilers has been a breeze, and went by sooner than expected! I am going to do the same thing after release day, but this time… I might as well just keep my eyes shut until the end of June. If you’re like me (keeping eyes away from spoiler warnings left and right), and can’t get Guns of the Patriots right away — stay the heck away from GameFAQs’ MGS4 Board! Actually…stay away from MGS fanboys. Period. So far, I’ve found out a partial reason why Snake is aging…It appears to be a Botox injection gone horribly wrong (Not a spoiler, but hoped that this averted attention away from the real reason). I vaguely remember a couple of parts that happened in the first trailer that was shown at E3 a couple of years ago, but I’d rather keep that a distant memory for the next two weeks…

If anything…Solid Snake’s back, and despite his “new look”, he’s better than ever!
