Konami seem to be running out of ideas when it comes to marketing Metal Gear Solid 4. They have recently announced a special "bonus" for their Japanese fans. If you buy a copy of MGS4, you will get a bonus ... shopping bag. Yes, you will recieve one of those environmentally-friendly canvas shopping bags with a picture of Snake's face on the front.
How ... special?

Your first thoughts may be that the Metal Gear Solid 4 marketing juggernaut maaaay have gone a step too far this time. The offer? Buy a gunmetal or regular MGS4 bundle in Japan and (while stocks last!) you get this...bag. It's one of those cotton, canvas-y type bags that you all should be using to throw your groceries in instead of plastic bags. Which may sound boring, but seeing as it's big enough to hold a PS3 box in, it's also mighty practical! After all, most gaming trinkets are just junk to clutter your shelves with. It's nice seeing one you can not only use on a day-to-day basis, but is environmentally conscious to boot!
