Man claims to have bought PS3’s MGS4 bundle from Wal-mart way early

The news that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots‘ street date has been broken isn’t exactly new, but to everyone who still believes such a thing isn’t possible, we’ve got another thing coming. It seems that reports and comments about Wal-mart selling the PS3’s 80GB MGS4 bundle seems to be true as you can see in the image after the jump.

We all know how much gnashing of teeth there has been out of envy or disbelief when we reported that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots‘  street date has been broken in several locations around the world. If that kind of news drives you nuts, prepare to go wild with this one.

NeoGAF member Randam_Hajile posted the image reproduced above and said he got his 80GB PlayStation 3 bundled with Metal Gear Solid 4 a week early from Wal-mart. He was shady on details, so feel free to theorize how he got it from his post quoted below:

So I walked in to Wal-Mart tonight to get a Father’s Day card with my fiance’, and walked out with this! I pre-ordered the Limited Edition MGS4 at Gamestop, so I don’t know if I’m even gonna open this copy of the game, but at least now I have the 80 gig PS3 I’ve been waiting for, and a week early at that! My college graduation ceremony is tomorrow morning. Happy graduation to me!

There you have it, folks. More people claiming to have picked up MGS4 and related items before launch.
