TGS 2007: METAL GEAR SOLID 4 INCLUDES ONLINE STARTER PACK

From the Konami pre-TGS press conference comes news that the long awaited Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots will in fact come with an online “starter pack”, giving you a small taste of the Metal Gear Online experience. Exact details aren’t available just yet - however, this does mean that you will have access to some kind of online functionality with MGS4 straight from the box, without buying Metal Gear Online which is classed as a separate game.

In other MGS4 news from the conference, a new trailer was shown (not available to the public just yet) and Hideo Kojima said that the game was still on track for an early 2008 release.
