You certainly couldn't accuse Kojima of under-doing anything.

@lieutenantkirtar: i told sascha to add the preorder stuff, guess he did that by now BUT i although wanted to add more details... like how many Firing Range drills or how many Racetracks, what are the new Holograms, number of unlockable Backpack Patches... and so forth.

So it's basically just a more detailed version of the list mentioned.
