I keep refreshing the UPS tracking page hoping to see movement on my copy! I got the tracking number yesterday with next day air so it probably won't ship until Monday

 

[PrimeRib_]

I'll be able to tell you in a little bit. Cross your fingers.

I'm crossing fingers, legs and possibly the short and curlies as well

 

[Heimbeck]

Same boat, got the collectors edition with expedited delivery. Think they really are going for a Monday dispatch...

I imagine with expedited they are because they know they can do it in one day.

 

[dandoolan]

Yeah, same here. Is this only for everyone in London?

I'm London and mine shipped at Lunch time.

 

[Metalmurphy]

Did you choose first class postage?

No, that changes the day it's shipped? I thought it was just the carrier oO

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.

Ooooooh. That makes sense.

 

[Wasp]

My copy just shipped from Shopto and when they send out a game it usually arrives the day after. Obviously it won't be delivered on Sunday but maybe I might get it on Monday, fingers crossed.

Maybe on Monday but I think it's unlikely. Read the small print of the email:

We are pleased to inform you that your order has been packed and will be dispatched with next ROYAL MAIL collection. We do not dispatch orders over the weekend.

 

[Prologue]

I just called up a bunch of places and no one is getting it until Monday (no one is sure when the distributors will drop it off).

Yep, here - http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/crew/gaf_street_

I sent an invite too

First class means you will get it release day.
Free means you might get it on release but it will probably be the next day.

 

[Avixph]

Okay.

 

[Nicktendo86]

Yeah, same here. Is this only for everyone in London?

Same for me

 

[diamount]

Yeah, same here. Is this only for everyone in London?

Nope, I'm in Luton and it hasn't been dispatched yet. But even if they dispatch it on Monday I'll receive it the next day.

 

[DukeBobby]

Yeah, same here. Is this only for everyone in London?

Manchester here, and it's still not been dispatched or even changed to 'dispatching now'.

 

[Heimbeck]

Yeah, same here. Is this only for everyone in London?

Mine hasn't dispatched and I don't live in London.

 

[mocoworm]

I am in Manchester UK and I just got an email saying mine has been dispatched. Est delivery date 17th.

 

[Derrick01]

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.

Almost 26. My personality is a lot older than that though

I'm up in the North East and still on 'not despatched yet' from Amazon. I've got Prime though so will be getting a courier delivery, just a bit frustrating to see it might have been better off going through regular First Class postage.

On my ride into Sunderland today I saw like half a dozen ads on boards, don't usually see them for games round here, mostly just films!

 

[ISOM]

How much gb does gta v need to install?

 

[Rebel Leader]

How much gb does gta v need to install?

8-9 GB

EDIT: or is it 7-8 GB

just down the road in hartlepool just got a dispatch about 10 mins ago first class

 

[abundant]

But even in the comments or whatever R* says it was a mistake earlier.

He's talking about it being up at 12am est. Every Day 1 Digitals went up at 12am pst and the PSN Store still says 12am pst.

 

[Ghost23]

Getting One day shipping for fairly cheap, so I should be getting the game on Tuesday now! It will be a nice present for finishing my exams.

[DukeBobby]

Oh ok.
My mistake.

 

[cdkee]

Amazon let me down once...I got Halo 4 the day after it came out even though I had release date delivery. They better not do the same thing here...

 

[ISOM]

8-9 GB

EDIT: or is it 7-8 GB

So a 40 gb harddrive should be ok? Would I need more if I bought it off psn?

 

[Bsigg12]

You have to have 36gb if you buy it off PSN because the full game is 18gb

 

[SLV]

Fuck, i tried to create a countdown timer to the US PSN unlock, but i dont know the right way lol...

 

[hlhbk]

8-9 GB

EDIT: or is it 7-8 GB

If you are on 360 and install the 2nd disc how much total? 16 GB?

 

[ISOM]

thx

 

[valkillmore]

Wondering why you would order a game you may be anticipating even more than Halo 4 from Amazon if they dicked you once already. Do you not have any other options?

 

[EGOMON]

I applied at GAF crew, name is GeoDarky
is there conditions to fulfill to get accepted?

 

[Garibaldi]

Ordered mine on the cheap from GMG. They ain't dispatching till Monday :-( Oh well. I'll just have to deal with just having Breaking Bad on Monday. But please come on Tuesday. Pleeeease!

Just joined the PS3 crew btw (Garibaldi007, PSN: TannedHide). Seeya all online on the 1st

I didn't take the chance on this. I took Tuesday off, and am going to the midnight release at gamestop to pick up the CE. I had the SE preordered at Amazon but they don't deliever until like 6 PM. Unfortunatly I gotta work at 5 AM Monday morning due to some off hour maintainance (I work in IT), so I don't know how long I will stay up before I crash.

 

[SLV]

[kev26b]

Added myself on social club.

[GazzaScotland]

So despite saying 'Dispatching Now' for over 24 hours my order hasn't entered the Dispatching process? Cheers Amazon!

 

[hlhbk]

Is there a 360 GAF crew yet? If so how do I join? Do I have to wait to get the game?

 

[kittens]

Finally got around to pre-ordering. Midnight launch here we goooooo

Is there a 360 GAF crew yet? If so how do I join? Do I have to wait to get the game?

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/crew/gaf_street_

I'm not sure if you're just supposed to add yourself, or...? I heard something about a google doc?

 

[newsguy]

Quick question. Do we have to wait till October to get online at all or will there be a free roam/mess around online hub until then?

 

[Bsigg12]

GAF Street

 

[uncleniccius]

I think I applied for the PS3 crew, my PSN is my username.
I think I applied for the 360 one now . Can I have a link to the ps3 one?

 

[SLV]

Reposting for new page i guess.

US PSN GTA 5 unlock timer

 

[TheContact]

I should have taken off Tuesday from work. It's going to be the longest 9 hours ever.

 

[Heimbeck]

No online until October.

 

[Balphon]

I added myself to the PS3 crew. My PSN is my username.

Don't kick me. I'm cool, I swear.

 

[Hoo-doo]

I need to get in on that GAF PS3 crew.

My PSN ID is the same as my username on here.

Edit: I'm way cooler than that guy above me, seriously.

 

[sw26]

Just got a shipped email from amazon uk. Should be here on Monday, cannot wait.

 

[Rebel Leader]

So a 40 gb harddrive should be ok? Would I need more if I bought it off psn?

PSN size is 18GB


You will need a bigger HDD if you are getting it from PSN


and why haven't you upgraded the HDD?

If you are on 360 and install the 2nd disc how much total? 16 GB?

It may be the smaller than the ps3 so I'm guessing.


It may be around 16-17GB
