If you haven’t gotten hold of a copy of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain yet, consider this friendship over. Not that any of you would call me a friend anyway, but that’s beside the point! The game is good ok, so good that I went out of my way to order the limited edition MGSV Playstation 4 console almost immediately after playing it! My sexy hardware finally arrived yesterday, after the longest wait of my life (over two weeks… THE PAIN).
Because I love you all (even though we are no longer friends), I recorded myself unboxing the beautiful console. No really, it was so you could all see what it looks like up close. I would never do this to incite jealousy or anything I swear!
Here’s my recording, filled with casual knife waving, surprise cats, and my silent squeals of joy. Prepare to be jealous… I mean… ENJOY THE VIDEO!
Unable to watch the video? Here are some snaps of the hardware:
Typo? What typo? I have no idea what EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT! Ok fine, here’s a close up…
I’ll give a thousand points to whoever can tell me how to correctly spell the error – without Googling it or anything (or reading my article on the whole debacle). Heck, I’ll even throw in a bonus 5000 points if you can tell me why I believe ‘Molybdeum’ is the atomic answer to life!
Anyways, here’s what all the goodies look like when put together:
Oh my, am I glad I waited! I’ve had enough saved for a Playstation 4 for a long time now. I’ve been waiting in the shadows, patiently, biding my time, eyes wide open for the perfect bundle or deal. I think I made a good choice!
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to make excuses to get off work for the rest of the day. I think I’m coming down with a severe case of Snake Flu!

We, do however, use our wireless Xbox One controller as a remote for our streaming needs. What do we call it then? A controller?
The Xbox One Media remote is crap, wants to be pointed at the actual controller instead of work with 2.4Ghz like the controller.

One question.. Whats up with that “Day one code”?? I was scratching my head last night when I never got ANYTHING after activating it.

You probably did – it’s a bunch of unlockables out of the box. When you get to the point in the game where you can do stuff on Mother Base, you’ll have more gear to play with (as far as I know)

Aaaah I see… Was wondering why I couldnt change my camo yet.. Still kinda pissed that they force you do do all those side missions and all wish I could skip all that and just do the campaign.

Did I just see a tube tv and a vcr machine. What year is this. Oh PS4… there’s a typo… it’s a knockoff… I guess this is 1999. Oh my god the world is ending.
Don’t Support DRM. September 23rd is coming.
