Oh god, is this Webhallen Göteborg? Can't believe someone here is so close to me.

Yes, indeed!

 

[Hag]

so background download is not recommended? I really don't want to download again with my shitty internet lol

I'm waiting for the US psn launch

Just got it, it's currently installing.

Where do you live? Love the rating sticker. In a game with an insane amount of all kinds of despicable behavior, "drug use" earns the top spot?

 

[The perfect Dark]

Wave Race fans in here?
You'll love Jet-Ski.

 

[sqwarlock]

The Gamestop I pre-ordered from is having the launch event at a bar/restaurant next door. Best launch ever.

 

[Avixph]

I heard the same thing. J&L told me to call at 9. Gonna call both at 9 and probably end up at either if they have it, otherwise it's Union Square.

The Gamestop on Union Square is going to have a DJ and representatives from Rockstar Games at the event.

 

[Derrick01]

My friend texted me at 5pm (eastern) that there were already people lining up at gamestop. Now that's ridiculous lol.

Melbourne, Australia.

Our EB opened at 8am ( it's currently 08:38am)

 

[ChimpanzeeThat]

After I enter my login, password and accept the TOS, it says it can't login at this time.

I'm a little further than you it seems, i've loaded up the menu screen and tried to login to Los Santos Customs, got to the custom plate menu and then it crashed on me.

 

[dreamfall]

The lines out here are so wild! 6pm , forty people here already!

 

[Freezasaurus]

Ha, that was my thought as well.

Not sure I wanna go to the midnight launch. I may just pick it up in the morning. I don't go back to work until Thursday anyway, and I wanted to get a bit further in Kingdom Hearts HD first.

 

[lastplayed]

Here we go. Stuck at work though.

 

[kittens]

Jealous of everyone who has it already. I have to wait 8 hours and 20 minutes before midnight even hits, then I have to wait in line, and then who knows how tired I'll even be when I get home...

But whatever, it's still really close. :-D

 

[Chance Hale]

Jeez, just going to drive out to walmart at around 11:40 and hope they have plenty of copies.

 

[ronny_1]

20min till game unlocks PSN EU version, can't wait!

 

[Loomba]

Anyone know the install sizes for 360, both disks?

Want to clear the right amount of space before I get it.

 

[Moozo]

//might// be able to go and grab it from Asda now via late night McDonalds trip. Will see what the lines are like, not going to queue

 

[SonnyBoy]

Is it worth preordering for the blimp?

 

[Jomtos]

I might die, i need to find something to do

 

[seventynine]

I'd also advise a standard download. Had a problem with a game in the past which was somehow being corrupted during background download.

I've just made a thread about this since it catching many of us out.

Seems to be a common problem.

Yeah I think I have to redo it but keep it in the store. Fuck.

It's such a hassle. A waste of time and bandwidth.

 

[Gangxxter]

My thoughts exactly.

 

[tehbible]

Not a particularly great image, but here you go:

Thanks so much for the lines queuing up in Europe! (in this case, it was Stockholm Sweden taken by RoadHazard)

Really cool! Loving the hype! One of the few games where the hype matches expectations!

 

[Coffee Dog]

7 hours D:

Ughhhhhh

 

[Avixph]

Here we go. Stuck at work though.

That's an ugly ratings sticker.

 

[nowai]

A quick fap to calm myself down, then it's ready. Nice.

 

[nikos]

Oh, nice. Should make the wait a lot more enjoyable. I didn't preorder there though, so I probably can't queue up.

Maybe that will at least mean there will be a shorter line at Best Buy, then I can run by with the game in my hands and troll everyone before crying about the L train being screwed up.

Yeah, I left after taking this picture...

 

[Linius]

I'm just gonna get a good nights sleep and wait for my copy to arrive in the mail tomorrow. Don't wanna wait out in the rain at midnight

That's pretty sad.

[Orbis]

My brother reporting a large number of people here at a GAME store in the UK. He says 200 but I very much doubt it's quite that high. I think there were about 10 for the Wii U launch.

 

[MacNille]

I got it. I waited for it from 15:00 to 00:00 in cold rain. I will play it tomorrow. Thank god for Webhallen (stockholm).

 

[boredofcanada]

So it turns out the GS I preordered has a new system where you get a number but its not your number in line. You have to actually wait in line, first come first serve. That's retarded and there are already fifty people in line. I can't take there for the next five hours waiting. Guess I'm getting it tomorrow.

 

[BFIB]

Dexter, dinner. Power nap. Coffee. Then heading to GS!

 

[Aleph]

If I do a standard download on the PSN store, will it install automatically?

 

[Cindres]

The benefits of your local game store being in a shopping centre

Shit, I still have to go to my jersey launch than meet my brother at union square(probably.) Still awesome how much love gta is getting!

 

[flipswitch]

The game starts installing almost instantly after a splash screen or so.

Ok, it's going to finish installing. Took less than 15mins on super slim ps3

 

[Sn4ke_911]

This made me laugh :lol

 

[Alienous]

Am I reading that correctly?

What?

 

[valkillmore]

Anyone know the install sizes for 360, both disks?

Its not recommended you install both disks, brah.

 

[ironcreed]

Installing PSN version.

Corrupted.

Try install again.

Corrupted.



FUCK YOU.

Oh no, not this again. Same thing happened when I bought L.A. Noire awhile back and I ended up having to get a refund. I am going to be absolutely livid if this happens again with this game.

 

[Falifax]

Xzone, Prague.

 

[zinder]

I got it. I waited for it from 15:00 to 00:00 in cold rain. I will play it tomorrow. Thank god for Webhallen (stockholm).

Why the hell did you wait for that long? Did you get it cheaper?

 

[GQman2121]

I'm thankful that the managers at my GS are sensible enough to hand out numbers when they close at 9. I'm going to go down the street, and watch Cincy/Pitt at the pub, and then go back at midnight.

 

[Linius]

I got it. I waited for it from 15:00 to 00:00 in cold rain. I will play it tomorrow. Thank god for Webhallen (stockholm).

9 hours of standing in line for a game and then you go play it tomorrow? I don't follow :lol

 

[Covfan]

Installing PSN version.

Corrupted.

Try install again.

Corrupted.



FUCK YOU.

Redownload it and disable automatic updates for a few days.

 

[Loomba]

Its not recommended you install both disks, brah.

Thanks, but I'm installing the play disk to usb, which is supposedly fine.

again, anyone know the install sizes for the 360 (both disks)?
