Sony unveils limited edition MGS4 wireless headphones

After rumors circulated earlier today about a limited edition Metal Gear Solid 4, the latest limited edition exclusive for MGS4 has surfaced.
This new limited edition feature comes in the form of wireless, 7.1 channel headphones. These new wireless headphones sport the same finish as the limited-edition Sony PS3 that will be hitting Japan. A technical feat to say the least, Sony has managed to reduce a full HD 7.1 channel theater system into the confines of two earphones.
Assistant producer to MGS 4, Ryan Payton, has been adament on his podcast that to obtain the full MGS 4 experience, gamers should have at the very least a 5.1 surround sound system. These wireless headphones give gamers the option to have surround sound without waking up the neighborhood. The only downside to the announcement is that only 30 of them will be handed out randomly to those buying MGS4 bundles from the Japanese Konami store from now up to June 1.
Unless this offer is announced for other territories, the probability of getting your hands on these headphones will be near impossible. Keep those internet auction sites bookmarked as a couple of these will inevitably end up there and sell for way more than their worth, but every penny will be worth it to the biggest of Metal Gear fans.

If SONY actually made the headphones, then there could be something very similar on the market we could purchase so that we don't miss out on the night time stealth experience!
But I do hope they decide to release this to the public and make it available to everyone!

Well, I saw these Metal Gear Solid 4 headphones on the Japanese Konami store website last weekend, so it's not anything new really. I went on Gametrailers.com last weekend and someone posted some info and a link to the MGS4 heaphones in the forums. There is also going to be other MGS4 merchandise because I saw it on the Japanese Konami store. The Japanese just get all of the goodies don't they? They get the PS3 in different colors, they get most Japanese developed games first, and now this.
What the heck is Konami thinking? Don't they know that they could make a BOAT LOAD of money if they made those avaliable in the U.S.??!!! Come on Konami, I know that you guys are smarter than that. It would have been really cool if these headphones could have been included with the Special Edition of MGS4 or something.

I'd crap my pants to get a pair. Count on someone hawking them on ebay for $300.00
I really wish developers would provide enough of the cool stuff for limited editions, so more people could get it. LIke the FFVII CC PSP's. US or UK had no chance of getting one unless you paid $400 on ebay. Fans of series really like this kind of stuff.
