[Krappadizzle]

Is surfing a mini-game? I just read an article saying it was, but I've not heard a single word about it until today.

 

[un1que]

Are dogs confirmed for online? If so I hope you can select different breeds and go all snake eyes/shadow dancer on it!

 

[Fjordson]

I always wandered whats up with Quarter to Three reviews. Why doesn't GAF ever talk about that?

Some of GAF likes him. Gives low scores to AAA games, likes stuff like Saints Row, etc.

I have no opinion either way. He's actually a pretty eloquent writer to be honest. But at the end of the day it's just one random dude's opinion, like any other game reviewer out there. Of no concern to me.

Hype through the roof
Payday
Shaking
At work...and it's just morning
AND ORDER STILL NOT DISPATCHED FFS - still preparing state :/

 

[rouken]

Not really getting that feeling in the other thread, whenever something unpredictable or outlandish happens people go wild. There have been a lot of jokes about the PS3 version, but almost no one is hoping the game is bad.

yeah that's what i really mean. the over reaction is too much in there. but also some people are trying so hard to find faults in blurry footage.

 

[TheLegendOfMart]

Assuming they actually ship it today I might have it on Saturday, or Monday at the very latest!!!

Mine still hasn't dispatched yet


4 more days people! We can do it!

 

[flipswitch]

New ps3 slim - check
DS3 fully charged - check
Cash to buy game - check.
Catalogue for price match - check.

That's everything I believe. In the meantime I have KZ:M to kill time with

 

[Covfan]

It's coming back Friday for Europe. But who knows what time they'll actually enable the preloading.

They'll enable it at random o clock today, you should be able to download the Blimp now anyway.

 

[Ploid 3.0]

The amount of crow needed for people doubting GTA V is going to be murderous.

Rockstar seem to have really listened to complaints of GTA4. It looks like they fixed a lot of the problems I had with it. GTA5 looks like GTA:SA-III, they were just sleep for GTA4 to me, and made me sleepy. I'm still skeptical as I haven't seen direct feed hd footage that's not marketing by rockstar and it's only the first day. It looks fun though, that's what matters. My kind of GTA seems to be back with this game (sandbox fun).

I hope this isn't considered a spoiler. I saw the framerate discussion, I'll delete if it is (double checks).

That Spotify playlist is sort of helping. I can't take all this waiting :/

If you want time to go faster, it's best to take your mind off of it. Do something else, forget about the game for a bit. It's like watching paint dry, it makes time feel slow. Do something fun (time flies).

Lucky. Youll have it by monday!

 

[Gaz_RB]

God this game looks good.

Technically and from a gameplay standpoint. Rockstar is a rockstar

 

[lem0n]

What was the big deal with the punch video? Can someone be a sweetheart and PM it to me? I'd appreciate the heck outta ya

 

[Dead Man]

Noooooo! Abandon Internet!

Been spending time pretty much exclusively in this one thread on all of GAF. Haven't seen anything / nor ventured far away from home, since Bish is keeping a close watch.

Just a couple more days!

GAF should be pretty safe in general at this point.

 

[Wilester]

My Amazon order moved from 'dispatching now' to 'not yet dispatched' some time in the night

Sucks pal. =/


At least you don't have to wait till 8.a.m in the morning of tuesday to actually START THE DOWNLOAD of the game >___>.

Ok, I got it. It is brilliant. XD

I thought you were able to download the game right at 12:01?

 

[kittens]

Fantastic pun.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Fantastic pun.

I get it!

 

[Zukuu]

PST
which is 8 am over here lol.

 

[dreamfall]

On the road back to D.C.! Xbox Slim sitting in the back, raining in Jersey and "Street Dreams" by Nas blasting.

GTA V back home for launch- wouldn't trade it for anything.

 

[Screaming Meat]

Fantastic pun.

Ha, I didn't even noticed. Goo eyes.

Morning all. Any major events since I last visited or has the info peaked? Too scared to step into... THE OTHER PLACE

 

[rouken]

I'm not saying it will be a bad game, not at all, I think it'll be good to great.

But some people in this thread are acting like it's the second coming of christ earning a perfect 100 on Metacritic.

Take a step back and look at what you are saying.

lol funny you should say that. i think that's what also happened with TLOU. and it was really appropriate because that game was made by naughty gods.

every game gets its fair amount of hype, let the fans drown themselves from the hype and we all know that a few months later we would all step back and look at what were saying.

Safe trip homie! This weekend will go by fast and on Tuesday I'll look at my friends list and see you and everyone else playing GTAV

Ha, I didn't even noticed. Goo eyes.

Lots. Nothing safe for this thread haha

 

[krimsoncharge]

[idonteven]

Haha! Fair enough. So definitely avoid the other thread, gotcha

We gotta avoid that calling- we're too close to jump in there now!

Aha much appreciated homie! It doesn't feel real! So many years of waiting, and we'll be playing it so soon. And then we are going to be certified gangsters reppin' GAF.


SO READY!

 

[Gaz_RB]

Indeed. Game is officially pirated too, so the internet just got 100% more dangerous for spoilers. Be careful!

That firefox plugin that hides youtube comments helped me a lot haha

 

[Squire]

Man, you guys work quick.

Anyway, the hype is getting bad. I have tomorrow off and I already want the weekend to be over. It's actually my 21at birthday next week, so I'm calling GTA V a gift.

I hope there are lots of housing options. I want a place in Vinewood or by the beach. Or both.

Full lockdown: ENGAGED

 

[brokenbeans]

Gonna record every second of my gameplay for the first few hours just for the heck of it.

 

[KAP151]

Torrents have hit the public sites now, so be even more careful. This weekend is going to be Internet free it seems!

Dunno if I could resist if I had a modded box tbh. =/ I mean, who can blame them? (I'd obviously still get my normal copy of the game )

 

[dreamfall]

Nice! I wonder if we'll be doing the same things- I'm getting that bike and riding as far as I can for hours!

 

[doby]

Do GTA games have difficulty settings? I cant remember.

I usually play on hard difficulty to make single player last longer and be more of a challenge in other games.

Not really. The aiming options are the closest thing. Whether you want hard lock on, soft lock, or free aim.

Yep grabbing a bmx and a fun melle weapon and heading into the woods!

I may spend it getting 100% again in the PS2 GTAs. Well 3 & VC at least. Probably not SA, and definitely not GTA4 because fuck those pigeons.

 

[red731]

TBoGT all over the weekend for me.

 

[crackhead_bob]

Will this game have hills and varied terrain? I remember playing Vice City and realizing just how flat and small the entire map was compared to Liberty City in GTA3.

I wouldn't burn yourself out of the GTA hype. It will dampen your lust for GTA V if you play the previous games now for longer periods.

 

[Gaz_RB]

Ohhhh yeah. Polar opposite from Liberty City.

Balls. Free aim it is then (assuming its not a frustrating experience)

 

[GroteSmurf]

That Spotify playlist is sort of helping. I can't take all this waiting :/

What spotify playlist? I think I missed that one...

 

[VE3TRO]

Don't know if it's been posted but the 360 version has leaked on the net so expect loads of spoilers now.

 

[crackhead_bob]

Will there be a noticeable improvement in the combat system? GTAIV's was sketchy.

Yes&Yes
