Like someone else said earlier in the thread, some of you guys must suck to play games with.

Cars handling is more arcadey than IV 
Feels similar to SR3 for me.

I played the PSN Version for a few hours (EU). I really don't have a problem with pop-in in general, what can you expect from those old consoles?
BUT: If I'm driving around in a fast car, sometimes part of the streets and buildings are just grey, without any textures and stuff - thats even to much for me. I'm using the latest Slim Model (not Super Slim) with the standard 160GB HDD. Note, that I don't have any comparison with the disc version, I simply don't know if that one would run better (I also didn't watch any streams).

This is the one thing that worries me most about GTA V.
Can just imagine Trevor listening to that 'our song is slammin' screen door' while beating down dudes in Blaine County.
I said it wasn't ideal...it's obviously still playable. You sound like one of those who don't give a shit with framerate so why bother commenting.

That's my plan. Not leaving for another hour or so.

Depends if you spend the majority of the time trying to stealth past zombies and slowly scouring the environment for resources I'd guess.

They've upped the texture resolution big. Roads have much more detail texturing and sharpness compared to IV.
I swear I read some technical differences with both consoles and they showed that 60 gig PS3 output better quality, forget the details exactly but they proved it using a AC game.
Yeah, getting the disc version now for sure instead of the PSN version. Might wait for DF and decide between 360 or PS3.
How many in a group for the Gamestop thingy. I'm in group 4.
Also,
can't wait!!
I'm in group 6 person 3. I believe every group has 10 people.
Ive got a 60gb but its incredibly precarious, games make it ylod so I have to stick it back on my IR heater to revive it. I just use it for on demand stuff these days as it seems to come with that. Will stick GTA in it just for shits n giggles though and see what happens.
buddy texted me back theres about 200 people in line atm
DJ, Pizza, Jimmy Johns, tons of t-shirts, posters and even game copy give aways........
I remember my cousin winning assassins creed brotherhood when that came out.....lucky.
Hell I took a whole case of NOS home for free MW3 night 2 years ago.

Then hopefully it is not nearly as bad as some individuals are making it to be. I would be slightly concerned due to the R* statement that Xbox 360 users should not install both discs. Kinda of surprised that a fully digital version is out there if this is the case.
Witness the arrival of the latest in lowered standards: "25fps most of the time" is now 'fine and perfectly playable.' Christ.
Hey, in five years, will 20 or 15fps be perfectly playable as well? Do we have a floor on these standards or is it open season?
I can't believe people lashing out at those who have higher standards than this. WE are not the problem.
Same thing for me. My disc version is coming tomorrow, I guess I'll keep it and play that.
WAT.. Streams are the complete opposite, I've seen cars crushed beyond recognition

It genuinely wowed me. That was just the city too, so can't wait to check out somewhere remote.

4:30 am here and I'm still waiting for the US download to go live. The tiredness is slowly murdering all of the hype. Help me GAF.
Shit, someone trustworthy just wrote on another forum that the digital PSN version does in fact have worse pop-in, textures and in his opinion framerate than the ps3 disc version.
Anyone here only getting the digital version? And can someone knowledgeable tell me why the digital version can theoretically have these problems and whether it's fixable?

After all of the negative comments in here, I had to slip the game in to check for myself.
Now I am not someone who is overly sensitive to frame rates, aliasing, pop-in, screen tearing, but i still have my limits!, and it sort of sounded like a disaster and started thinking, maybe I'll have to get the PC version of a game, which would have been first time in a long time, so I decided to play a bit and really??!! its absolutely fine.
Are there framerate dips? Sure but nothing game breaking - it really is not that bad.
Is there aliasing? Obviously but less then GTA IV and again nothing game breaking
The game is way beyond that of GTA IV and that pixelated stuff that you see in the console versions of GTA IV in the foreground is non-existent
People must of had unrealistic expectation for this game, or PC people jumping on it who couldn't wait for the PC version. Now we all know how overly sensitive PC gamers are.
The game is fine.
But thats me
Again everyone has different sensitivity levels
The good thing?
There's options - 360, PS3, PS4, PC

Any issues with fat PS3s? The 80gb ones (which I have)
I can say from streams I've seen that popin was NEVER like that. Really shitty if the digital version suffers from issues like that.

Would spinning the ps3 help the digital version?

I'm well aware of that. I can already see the PC version post coming. From best game of the generation to why this generation needs to end, lol.

Well, my day didn't go at all as planned (so no postponing at least part of those plans, I sure as fuck ain't doing it tomorrow if GTA V is in my house) but I was still plenty distracted, hopefully it won't happen again tomorrow.
Lots of new pages, can't and won't read them all about 14/15 hours to go on my end! My copy is currently two hours away from where I live. Sometime tonight it'll be sent to the closer facility to be delivered into my awaiting my hands, no they won't be shaking. I'll probably post my "OMG IT'S HERERERERE!!1!1" message and then disappear.
I actually did a database rebuild last night in preparation. It seemed to help a little when I was getting more crap than usual popping up in GTA IV and JC2.

100% true. I feel your pain, the handling sucks.
I'll live but still, a huge bummer.
