I (apparently) have a hard back on the way but had a quick flick through the paperback version in my local WH Smith when I was out and about this morning.
Looks like it will be a decent read, it did look like a glorified magazine special issue but seemed to have a decent amount of written content and wasn't padded out with bare picture pages or other wasted space.
I was also interested to note a contributor credit for George Weidman of Youtube Super Bunnyhop fame, which is a good thing imo as I am a big fan of his 'Critical Close Up' videos on the series.
Looking forward to my copy arriving.
"The ruse cruise: How MGS's marketing destroyed everyone's sense of reality"
Can anybody read that part of it and tell us what it says?In the back of my head I want it to confirm all the crazy stuff happening at Konami is just part of a marketing ploy.
Interesting way to f up some commas I never saw it coming
may i know how much was the hardcover initially priced at?
now its 29.99

I've seen people on Twitter and I think in another thread on GAF post photos of theirs (hard cover), but like you I haven't received mine yet. Like you said it's been a week since dispatch and they don't offer tracking numbers. On the site I ordered from in pretty sure they said allow up to 3 weeks for delivery.Has anyone got theirs yet? Been a week since it was supposed to dispatch.

I'm too excited, I need this book so I can have something safe to read, too much risk of spoiling the story online!
Gotcha, it is coming from the UK so I expected it to take a week+. Hopefully it arrives soon, no tracking number on mine either. I ordered directly from myfavoritemagazines.
I ordered from the same place, now that I think about it wasn't it ONLY available there as an exclusive? It's a shame tracking isn't available, I tend to obsess over things getting delivered to me, particularly when it's MGS related. I'm in California, hopefully it doesn't take too much longer! If I get mine first I'll post a photo and answer any questions you have
Edit: I checked my browser history and found out where I saw the photos of the Hard Cover Book earlier. Check page 7 of the NeoGAF August 2015 Pick-Up Post!!

I received my hardcover order like two days ago. NYC USA.
Still waiting for mine too, I'm in Atlanta. Hoping it's not lost...the address formatting looks a little funny, but the info is there.
Mine looked the same way on their email (backwards), but on the shipping label it was actually in the correct format. I live in central US so I would think yours should be pretty close, if it dispatched on 8/13 like mine did!
Got mine its awesome
When you guys ordered it, did the state for your billing address not show up in the confirmation email?
Just dug up the email now and nope, no province is listed in my confirmation email under my address.
Hmm.. that's weird. I hope it arrives safely to me, but I just emailed them about it.
I wouldn't worry about it. My Edge subscription confirmation emails are the same as well and everything has arrived at my place OK.

My state is missing in the confirmation email, but everything else is there. I'm still waiting...
