Really hope my Shopto order is here tomorrow.

Wondering what the midnight launch was like at Game in Penzance. They didn't do the midnight launch for Vice City or San Andreas, but I was there for the opening. Only around 50-60 people there then.

 

[DukeBobby]

Yep, I'm now seething with jealousy.

Time to play a bit of San Andreas, go to bed, and hope the postman delivers the game tomorrow.

 

[tehbible]

GTAV is G.O.A.T. People will argue it. I can see it coming.

 

[Flanimal Lover]

Purchased. Installing. Hyped.

 

[sappyday]

Asked this in another thread but will I be able to ddl the game at 9 or 12 here in LA

 

[CorrisD]

Finally home from Game, for a video game specialist I always forget how awful they are for midnight launches, so disorganised.

 

[coughlanio]

It works! PSN

 

[WJD]

awww yeah, here we go!

 

[Figboy79]

My copy has been shipped from Amazon, and is already in Los Angeles, but I probably won't get it until tomorrow. No biggie, but it's going to be a long day at work, that's for sure.

 

[Covfan]

Here we go hype hype hype.

 

[d00d3n]

Anyone else finding the pop up of street lights in the eu psn version quite bad? I don't have any disc version to compare to, but it feels quite intrusive just after playing an hour ...

 

[jacksepticeye]

Think I already gave my advice. Hope some are instore tomorrow but best get there early before work imo, just in case.

edit: plus correct me if I'm wrong, as you've already tried to download it, you must have already paid for it and it's non refundable so surely it's worth another go?

Yeah, gonna download again overnight and see what happens. Should have known better with my shitty connection anyway but I wanted it for right when it unlocked which is actually right this minute funnily enough

it was gonna be perfect timing

 

[Chance Hale]

About to order via the online sen store, will that 75% coupon run out at midnight?

 

[RDreamer]

Screw midnight release. I'm probably just going to wake up and walk to the Target behind my place and get it at 8AM. Play until I have my work meeting at 11.

I'm probably not nearly as hyped as anyone here, but I know I'll enjoy it. Hopefully it blows me away. We'll see.

 

[Fjordson]

Man, I was dead set on going to the midnight release at GameStop, but if people are already camping out 7 hours in advance then I'm not so sure I want to wade through that.

Maybe I'll show up at like 12:15 and try to just get in and out quickly.

12

That's what I'm doing. The point of preordering at gamestop is that they don't have to ring every single person up, and they just hand out copies at 12 to everyone that has been confirming for the past 2 hours. It always goes super fast

 

[TedNindo]

I heard they were expecting 1500 people.

 

[carlos]

think so; i'm also undecided on what to use it on.

 

[Raptomex]

4hrs left. My friend and I are first in line. I won't be sleeping until tomorrow night. I'm so happy I planned for the week off.

 

[Ishida]

Ok, I know this is an extremely "Late to the party" question, but anyways: GTA V doesn't have a Custom Soundtrack feature, does it?

 

[cdkee]

The past two weeks I've been playing San Andreas in my spare time. Hopefully that will make V seem even more impressive.

 

[Goldrusher]

I heard they were expecting 1500 people.

There were huge crowds everywhere.

Holland:

Belgium:

Czech Republic:

Sweden:

Iceland:

England:

Scotland:

 

[Moxx19]

wtf? PSN still isn't unlocked for me?

 

[Lucario]

PSN store says it'll be available at 12:01 AM PST. Someone tell me that's bullshit please, not being able to preload is already an annoyance.

 

[MikeE21286]

Work tomorrow is passing me off already

 

[kutthoat5150]

those kids in iceland look 12 lol I'm guessing the same rules don't apply over there as here in the states

 

[Darklor01]

Which is it?

My PS3 store screen still says after 12:01AM PST. People show me online posts from PSN US saying EST. I don't want to argue, but, if my screen says PST, I have to believe that's when it will be available, even if its set at the in error.

 

[Inferno313]

It's been confirmed on the PS Blog that it's actually gonna be 12 EST.

 

[Yawnier]

Some people here are already playing this damn game and I'm just here reading a chapter on thermodynamics. ZzZzZzZ

 

[Scott32020]

Getting all my (college) homework done for Wednesday tonight. Only one class that ends at 10 AM tomorrow. As soon as UPS/USPS delivers, the holiday begins. I wonder how many will just skip the morning class I'm going to

 

[Darkgran]

I have NEVER gotten a game early and the trend continues!!!

 

[CrazyDude]

There were huge crowds everywhere.

I love how Iceland is just a bunch of little kids.

 

[Darklor01]

It's been confirmed on the PS Blog that it's actually gonna be 12 EST.

At one point this weekend, my US PSN Store screen did say EST. maybe, the PST is just text in a box, and it will be EST.

 

[Cindres]

Finally in the store, moments away from getting my copy.

 

[NoSkillz187]

I need more people to comment on this.. I really hope the PSN version doesn't have worse pop in than the disc version. You gotta be kidding be. I hope this isn't true.

 

[VE3TRO]

How do we access the photos we've taken on the phone? Got some hilarious shots I want to share.

 

[Cheddahz]

My order finally is shipping (no longer "ready for UPS"), I am happy!

 

[Chance Hale]

think so; i'm also undecided on what to use it on.

Haven't played Red Dead in a while so I might get the collection, would be nice to own it digitally and my 360 retail copy was lost in the move.

 

[RoadHazard]

Done installing!

Timed the PS3 install (from disc), it took almost exactly 17 minutes (on a 2008 40GB Phat fitted with a 320GB HDD).

The exact install size is 8486MB.

Playing now, aw yeah!

Good to know. What the hell am I going to do for 17 minutes after I get home tomorrow!?

 

[Spine_Ripper]

Thank god for Gamestop. Did I actually just say that? Oh man...

 

[SJRB]

Jesus Christ I can't believe how good this game looks.

Los Santos during nighttime is something else, man.

 

[Joeki11a]

Play GTA on Vita

 

[MercuryLS]

Traditional, Assisted or Free Aim?

 

[tehbible]

GTA V is a great tourism tool for the state of California. Even though it's a violent game, the state government should acknowledge that the game benefits the state.

Another win is Scotland, since it was made there (Rockstar North). Good win for the city of Edinburgh.

 

[valkillmore]

Four hours and I'll be screaming around town. Cannot fucking wait.
