Recently in America and Japan, boxsets of the Metal Gear Solid games have been released to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Metal Gear series. These packages were all released at budget prices so that newcomers could easily be welcomed into the world of Metal Gear.

Despite this, there has been no announcement on whether such a package will be offered in PAL regions, namely Europe and Australia. In Australia, it has become exceedingly difficult to locate old games (such as MGS1 and MGS2), so it has become almost impossible for people to experience past MGS games before MGS4 comes out in June.

The PAL gaming community would be greatly appreciative if Konami releases a similar boxset in PAL regions so that newcomers may catch up on Metal Gear in time for MGS4's release. If possible, the inclusion of Metal Gear 1 and 2 would be also very much welcomed.
