I can't wait to learn all the roads and highways...very fun to not having to use the big map in a GTA game. Lol...many people's real towns have less roadways/streets to memorize...

Interesting you say this. I had that exact thought. I'm thinking it will be FAR easier to position yourself in the map, and to know where you are/where you're going, now that the render distance is so goddamn far and there is such disparate and unique geography to play with. Jesus I can't wait to just DRIVE AND DRIVE

 

[MetalGuardian]

Though one thing I WOULD like to know is if there was indeed a missing radio station. I read from one lone soul in this thread that only 220 of the 240 songs were discovered, even though everyone else I've seen speak on the matter say that all songs are accounted for. That still technically counts as conflicting information! I STILL WANT TO BELIEVE IN A METAL STATION, DAMMIT

 

[TheAbsolution]

You lucked out and aren't the OP over there (just how the mods merged the threads). So no, you're safe. TheAbsolution?

Nooooooooo! I don't think that I'll get in any serious trouble though.

 

[Raptomex]

Lol I've been testing my 360 daily for the last few days to make sure it's working fine. I will do daily checks until release.

Tell 'em Duke!



Baha, I just left. Clicked last page, missed some things on purpose, scanned all the way down. Averting everything! You?!

I bailed for a bit too- glad to see bish kicked ass and took names!

I only saw the first pic with Franklin! The rest I avoided!

 

[Goreomedy]

I can hear Bill Hader voicing this character...

Haha, I know that feel. I scrolled so fast, puffs of smoke were coming out of my mouse.

 

[Bullza2o]

For downloads, they need to unpack, hence the extra space initially. At least from my understanding.

Since you're doing an install, hopefully the 8ish or so that you have is enough. I don't imagine it taking up 9GB or anything.

Well I still have the Madden 25 demo which is 2GB, so if I have to delete that I'll have 10.3GB for this game. This install is only for online but required right? I don't plan on playing online.

I love that idea- been doing that just by replaying some Rockstar goodness. Preparation on all levels!

Staying strong! Nice! This is going to be one of those moments we won't forget!

"Where were you when the first unofficial GTA V image dropped?"

Haha, I know that feel. I scrolled so fast, puffs of smoke were coming out of my mouse.

LIKE A BOSS!

 

[KAP151]

Sorry if this has been answered a bunch of times already, but I only have a 20GB HDD for my 360. I just cleared some space (8.3GB free now), so will that be enough for the install? I'm asking because whenever I download Wii U demos they're always like 1GB download but 700MB installed. With my 8GB I get pissed a lot because of this lol.

8GB is the mandatory install (from the 2nd disc I assume), which means you should be okay, but then you will have the disc 1 constantly reading off the disc. I would try and make enough room to install both. A game like GTA will be horrible on your drive constantly spinning.

I believe the first (?) disk is for installing everything. I'm sure someone that has the right info will correct me on that

 

[Raptomex]

With the mandatory install I can still install the play disk, correct? I believe I've done that before.

Edit: yes I did that with Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen.

Yeah definitely.

Much like Forza, install 'em both! And get ready for bliss!

Yep, should work exactly like Forza.

Permaban of all time for anyone dumb enough to post spoilers, links to said spoilers, etc. in this thread before the 17th.

Released media ONLY. This is a safe haven, you dig?

When bish says permaban of all time a small Ethiopian baby gets its wings.

 

[More_Badass]

I saw gameplay.....

Good lord, looks like I chose to eat dinner at the right time.

Missed it all!!.

I took a few shots to the left thigh and bruised my upper arm but I'm through!

Some of those custom cars are seared into my retinas. I laughed out loud at one of them.

 

[SirNinja]

Is the map going around on twitter with the Red Dead to GTA size comparison accurate?

If so wow.

That feeling when you realize Mount Chiliad is almost as big as Red Dead Redemption's entire map...

I think there's only 13GB max on my HDD. I've always played all my retail games on disc, and I don't really mind the noise my 5 year old Xbox makes. I'm sure I'll barely notice it due to my 5.1 surround sound setup.

 

[superdeluxe]

Can you install both to a large enough USB drive?

 

[jet1911]

Videos are starting to pop on Vine

 

[Gaz_RB]

I saw gameplay.....

Was it worth it?

 

[Alienous]

I don't care what this said before, Bish is watching.

 

[valkillmore]

Both discs? Why not? Sure.

 

[More_Badass]

The wait is even harder

But damn, the graphics are fantastic

[Sorcerer Supreme]

Are local game stores selling the game already?

Ditto. No spoilers, but my impressions

Kind of weak.

changing your metacritic prediction? Or maybe you're just trying to lower out hype to manageable levels

Chalk it up to shitty gamers, and a desire to just do something and get it up as fast as possible.

 

[josecitoxnyo]

Btw, anyone who doesn't want to get spoiled, avoid gtaforums like the plague right now

Gotta be careful around here.

I call bullshit.

 

[Derrick01]

I don't believe anything I see from people who get games early in random places of the internet. I still remember that bullshit about Dishonored being like 5 hours long and causing a mini panic.

People really do just want to rush through things early so they can....I don't even know. I guess be the first to give a review on it?

 

[Unicorn]

Be the first to say it sucks after playing it.

Can we get this posted in the OP or title please? I feel like people are going to be idiots and come in here and ruin shit.

Yikes, I can't even imagine how much of a spoilery warzone it is in GTAF country.

Thank Odin for GAF. I don't know where I would be venting my hype if this place didn't exist

 

[Megasoum]

I can just imagine the Rockstar engineers looking at the number of currently online players going up and freaking out lol.

 

[Lazloisdavrock]

No Spoilers. Watched some gameplay on Vine. We are in for a treat my friends. I cannot believe the graphics, they look incredible for this gen.

Also i can now confirm it does have

Spoiler

seemless cutscene transition

just like MP3

I feel like there's someone out there who has been nursing a throwaway neogaf account just to spoil GTAV.

I cant get over the graphics I just saw in those gameplay videos.

Jesus Christ, I'm abandoning this thread for fear of spoilers.

Its safe here. no spoilers

 

[oxidax]

i want to know the secret formula please!! please!!!

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Eff it.

 

[Fried Food]

so is motion blur in or out? I don't want to view any media

 

[RadioactiveLobster]

Everyone keep in mind the VINE videos appear to have been taken with a cell phone camera held in one hand.

We arn't looking at direct capture footage so don't bash the graphics yet.
