What's the proper way to reserve a copy of the upcoming Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots in Akihabara? You simply walk up to Snake and grab a reservation coupon from the man, that's how.

Standing guard in front of Sofmap in Akihabara is a life-sized replica of Solid Snake, the series' main character, proudly shilling for his bosses, and holding coupons for both versions of the game: The standard edition at 8800 yen, and then a special package edition for 1000 yen more.

Both versions are set for release on June 12th, and reserving means you putting down 500 yen.
