This thread is moving along. It was nice to get away from here for a bit, made the wait easier.

 

[Fracas]

When is the embargo up tomorrow?

edit: nevermind, seems to be 7 AM PST

 

[Con_Smith]

I think waiting for this game made Breaking Bad go by too quick....

 

[The Grim Heaper]

When is the embargo up tomorrow?

Seems to be pretty early, lots of sites are putting it up around 7AM Pacific.

EDIT: haha, damn

I just read a Kotaku article that was actually a pretty decent read:

How I fell in and out of love with GTAIV's Niko Bellic.

Sure, it's just meaningless fluff, but it's a nice little anecdote.

 

[Unicorn]

I've found that indie music is a lot like the present state of indies in gaming. Basically I'm not going to keep wasting my time endlessly shoveling through the shit to hope I find something decent.



Yes this would be ideal. I would never turn the station off.

Yeah, I don't dig through it all, I have Last.FM parse through that and suggest new stuff to me based on what I already listen to. If you haven't heard of it, maybe it will help?

 

[ieatzombies]

I Am the Night is a brilliant album. Far better than Kavinsky's 'Outrun'

I'm really digging it man! I thought I recognized perturbator from somewhere too. They habe a track on hotline miami. Gonna have to put it on my Custom playlist for Los Santos.

Surely you have to shovel through shit in any genre. Music isn't handed to you on a plate, it's there to be discovered. Relying on recommendations or just what is popular just seems so limiting to me. Plus it's a free 2-3 minute commitment to judge a song. Personally I love digging around for new artists to love.

Do not trust that kind of stuff when suggestions like you have just listened to Municipal waste how about Black veil brides or being suggested Nickle back after listening to some Shadows fall

 

[kasane]

Hey, random question, but is the cover paper of the game embossed like the GTAIV cover was? R* seem to be doing that with all their latest games.

 

[antitrop]

The abridged final trailer that they used for the television spot during Breaking Bad this evening was disappointing.

They cut out the best part.

 

[geebee]

X360 or PS3?? Which has worse pop-in and framerate?

I struggled to read this whole piece. I regret giving Kotaku my click.

 

[DukeBobby]

Both have some pop-in and frame rate drops. There's not much difference between them.

Nope, just flat.

Enjoy, my good man!

Just 11 more hours for me...

ROFL. High standards for blog posts.

TOOOO LONG!!!

 

[LifEndz]

It's going to be tough, but I'm going to hold out until Friday. Having it in the house when I can't just sit and play it for ten hours straight might get me fired.

As horrible as retail is, it can have the occasional perk

 

[Cheddahz]

I literally have been working on my homework all day today, so I won't have much to do Tuesday

 

[Darklor01]

I would rather eat my young than work retail again.

 

[Timu]

360 has worse pop in, but I hear PS3 may have worse FPS, though both suffer it they still do very well considering the hardware.

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

So the only question now is, can I get up at 6:30 for work and manage to stay up long enough to play this for a few hours after midnight and still sleep before work Tuesday. Hopefully my poor old body still knows what to do with adrenaline and caffeine.

Well, hopefully that's kinda what Rockstar did for you as the soundtrack curators.

Don't do it! You're gonna feel terrible

Hell yeah. In my veins.

Agreed. Outrun sounded terrible to me after discovering Perturbator. Is he in GTAV or something?

 

[Unicorn]

LOL

You can adjust the recommendations so it'll suggest stuff that is lesser known. Last.FM I've used for about 7 1/2 years now. The larger sample it has to pull from your music listening the better results too.

 

[tomshreds]

I preordered the digital PS3 version and I was wondering, will my PS3 turns on by itself or should I leave it on tonight so it starts at 3AM? (North America) FYI I'm a PS+ member.

Thanks

 

[antitrop]

I would rather eat my young than work retail again.

I returned from Iraq to use up my GI Bill, and I'm working retail for extra money while I go to school.

Every day in retail is finding new ways to destroy the deadened parts of my heart that I didn't even know existed, anymore.
I am one bitter person. Video games are my escape. And lots of drugs and alcohol. At least until I graduate and get a real job.

My degree is in Marketing, where I will be able to make fine use of my blackened soul.

No, but I really wish he was.

 

[Courage]

Yeah, there's considerable pop-in in the 360 version, but no fucks are given. The game is gorgeous otherwise.

Didn't some files say that there was a PC version?

Yeah, but, yknow, actual retail listing and all

 

[Ostinatto]

bought it today in a flea market here in Santiago de Chile.

 

[Gaz_RB]

"Ha, gangsta shit!" *Shotgun Blast*

I think I've watched the trailers too many times. Gonna be awesome to see those scenes in the game.

San Andreas ran like dogshit on the PS2 back in the day.

I'm willing to accept some things for GTA V. So far it seems to be a step UP from GTA IV, which is absolutely incredible.

I can quote the launch trailer from memory. It's kind of creepy. I've seen it over one hundred times. Maybe only a dozen of those were on television...

I cant play until Friday too brother!

Lol so true, I orginally played it on xbox, saw a friends PS2 version and it's drastic.
