Really glad GAF finally accepted my application!

Got my GAME special edition dispatched now! SO much hype!

(I haven't been this excited for a game since ever and that spoiler thread is annoying tempting)

Ayo! Welcome aboard!

Strength in numbers, haven't drifted from this thread at all. We're so close now, Los Santos is going to be an amazing place to get completely lost in!

i've been begging for over 5 years.
Welcome to all first time posters. What a great thread to post in to pop your cherry.

If any of you new guys/gals are playing on PS3 be sure to join the GAF crew. Head over to the community tab to view to OT for PS3 GTAO community.

I'm gonna pimp Franklin to look like CJ :p

Gonna do my best to make him look like Kendrick

I'm not a PS3 guy, but for the sake of everyone here has has preordered the digital version from the PSN, I hope their servers hold. I really do. Can't even fathom the potential disappointment for all of those who cancelled physical preorders only to have difficulties downloading the digital version.

I hate R* right now because of that mistake. If it wasnt because Sony wont refund the money i would've cancelled the digital already.
 
One last thing before I bail out to watch the movie.
Last week, some member which name I don't remember, put a list of movies together aka watch before GTAV arrives. I saved it and here it is:

Heat
Collateral
Thief
To Live and Die In L.A.
Goodfellas
Casino
The Town
Drive
The Driver
The French Connection
Oceans 11
Oceans 13
Now You See Me
The Italian Job
Scarface
Mission Impossible
Entrapment
Romancing The Stone

Add Carlito's Way. One of my favorite movies.

Any luck in NYC? J&L and VGNY both told me Monday night. Craigslist is pretty dry. Nobody I contacted responded, even though I replied very soon after they posted.

If anyone finds anything, please PM me.
A couple of other NYC GAF members have already asked this. The answer is always the same no matter which store you call: It's going to be available on Monday night. You're not gonna find a copy in the wild before then because again, Rockstar has a very strict policy against releasing it before the street.

I would advise against looking on craigslist because it could be a scam where people are selling pirated copies, people trolling and not having the game, and the pictures could very well be pictures of review copies or European folks that got it early which is a only Google image search away. You're better off waiting until the game is officially out.
 
Ok. So i can either with 95% chance get PS3 version on Monday around 19:00 and play all night long, or i can wait for Tuesday and buy 360 version which might or might not work better for me. What should i do GAF?

Two out of the three I talked to had the game but could not sell it. One of them informed me that Rockstar made them sign something.

Interesting, I do know certain agents were being picky with vendors so perhaps they had to sign a contract 1st before being allocated stock?
 
As I get older I become less and less of a movie person. It gets harder for me to sit for 3 hours and do nothing.

How old are you (If you don't mind me asking)?

I'm 31 and lately I'm always finding myself looking at the timer when I'm watching a movie to see how much time is left. Even some TV series (it's less problematic here because of the smaller duration). That's pretty annoying because I love movies and TV series but I can't help myself.

Sweet OT. I actually showed this to a lot of my friends to help convince them! We have our PS3 gang ready!

Does anyone know the extent of the car customization, do we get hydraulics, boost, get to raise our car up or down, and so on? That was one of my favorite parts of I think San Andreas.

From what Rockstar has said and what we've seen from previews and stuff, car customization is really robust.

If you'd like to know more, I'd ask in the spoiler thread, they'll know

What! What gives? Why is mine set to be shipped on the 16th?

I expect you chose guaranteed next day.

As I said earlier in this thread, it's because next day deliveries are done through couriers who guarantee the delivery date, this means Amazon don't even try to ship those ones until the last minute, because they can be certain it will reach the customer on release day either way.

Royal Mail on the other hand is a lot less reliable, so Amazon ship those a couple of days earlier to stick to their release day promise, which results in some people getting them early.
