Because all the members above said it is a requirement if you want to be in the MGO beta.

I believe you can take their words for it.

Nothing this is for your metal gear beta account user id to be in the coming days.

This is the ultimate response...
It was posted in full on the mgo open beta thread, and here is the exert of the part that states the requirement this is from the playstation blog.

"Once you’ve got the MGO Beta client downloaded and installed, it’s time to load it up. Upon launching and going past the main menu, you’ll see that you need to sign up for a Konami ID. What is a Konami ID you ask? It is Konami’s service that has actually been around for a while in Japan, which basically allows for a unified account and access across various Konami products and services. Konami ID will be used for the first time in MGO for the US, and using the Konami ID allows for some of the really unique features we plan to offer the community with MGO. Once you hit the Konami ID sign up menu option, you should notice something subtle, but really cool: MGO launches the PS3 web browser from in-game and takes you to the Konami ID registration page. You can also simply visit http://id.konami.net from your favorite Web browser right now and sign up as well, to get a head start!



After the simple registration process, you will attain your Konami ID as well as GAME ID for MGO (the GAME ID is your MGO specific ID, basically). From there, it’s on to character creation …"

Nice info. Thanks!

The page won't come up via the Beta (which accesses the browser) or the link provided in this thread (via the PS3 browser). Weird. I take it you guys aren't using your PS3 to get your ID, right?

im think i might just join you on that. its so stupid that day 1 you have to update the beta via thier http site that doesnt work or use p2p which really doesnt work and then on top of it all you gotta get a konami id which when you get to step 2 i get this message:

"Due to a period of inactivity, the page has been deleted.

ISNT THAT A KICK IN THE SUT NACK.
