Metal Gear Solid 4 has shipped 3.94 million units worldwide, according to a recent sales report from Konami.

We don't know the exact number of copies sold, but about one out of every four or five PS3 owners has purchased Metal Gear Solid 4. Simply put, there's a lot of tactical espionage action going on.

With sales that have started to become slightly sluggish in Japan, will the game reach the lucrative five million sold mark before the end of the year? We think so. Leave your input in the comments section below.

    I know this is blasphemy, but I kinda want to see it got to the 360 only to see how many it would sell on both platforms combined.

    I think by the end of the year that MGS4 will reach at least 7 million.
