Metal Gear Solid 4: Box cover indicates 4.66 GB HD space requirement

First off, we’re letting the guys know that Metal Gear Solid 4 appears to be at some stores, just waiting for its launch this June. While we can’t get the title just yet, this does provide us with an opportunity look at some extra game-related details, such as its hefty disk space requirements. More details are available in the full article.

While Metal Gear Solid 4 isn’t launching until June 12, it appears the retailers have already received their shipments of the game. Flickr member David-Heffernan took advantage of this fact to sneak in some pics of Europe’s MGS4 box cover, which in turn provides us with some interesting details.

For instance, MGS4 will require 4.66 GB of install space in your PS3’s hard drive. While this should speed up the game’s load time, admittedly, Konami‘s asking a lot of your console’s real estate. Clean out the demos and other unnecessary items you’ve got in there, folks.

Another detail that’s been confirmed is that MGS4 will run at 720p resolution. This should put to rest all previous speculation you may have read indicating that the game was going to run at 1080p. That said, if the game’s already shipped to the stores, then all that’s left for us to do is to wait. Visit us again in case we encounter any more related news.
