After playing it some more the PSN version is fine, the framerate is ok it drops frequently but it's not a huge drop. The pop-in is not that bad for the most part.

MetalGuardian · Sep 17, 2013

I'm heading out for the midnight release. See you gentlemen on the other side.

I think the best feeling is going tomorrow and being the only guy that is getting their preOrder Game, assuming all went to the midnight launch.

In line, there is a really cute guy. He is ignoring me. I keep trying to talk to him. I can't believe I'm buying this at launch without a system to play it on. Consider you guys lucky but I'm a dedicated Rockstar fan girl. Too dedicated. Need new ps3 stat. The lack of manual really shirts because I want to read it right when I get home. Oh well, I guess I can just go to sleep or play GTAIV instead.

Make your move and make him buy you the Ps3 bundle

So, anyone know where I can get a parachute yet?
There was a certain plane I was trying to steal but got completely destroyed trying to get to it, the aim being to fly a bad plane and parachute down next to it and be on my way.

Also, anyone know if you can steal a moving train? I managed to jump on the back of one while it was on its way but couldn't seem to get in the actual thing to drive it, I even shot the driver to see if that stopped the train but it just kept on rolling.

Not sure. I think it will be unlocked later after story missions possibly?

Seeing as it is midnight EST in 20 minutes are we now allowed to post spoilers in here if correctly labeled and tagged? Not story spoilers as much as just stuff to do with heists or things spotted around the world? Or story spoilers for those who want to talk about that kind of stuff.

Just flew a plane for the first time and it was awesome

poor development team must be crushed, people are playing gta5 for all the wrong reasons! I mean, what's the point if nobody really gets them?

Just hit 100 people, mostly college kids. I cannot imagine what the GameStop in Bowling Green (huge college town half an hour north of here) is like right now.

What is this about the PSN version having all of the same problems as installing both discs on the 360. Please tell me it is bullshit.

potam · Sep 17, 2013

Jesus Christ. Turns out the guy who pointed me towards the other line doesn't even work at GameStop. Just a security guard. I still managed to snag one of the last preorders

You block yourself from society and cry about it in a documentary...and then you later mock Japanese games in a big press conference

NBtoaster · Sep 17, 2013

Okay. I was climbing a hill near the countryside in a cement mixer, the usual...when

I hit what I thought was a dog. Nope. Mountain Lion. Found another one and got out to see it, and it killed me.

Seems up in the air, some people are saying it does, and some people are saying it doesn't. Everyone's basing it off of streams and videos though, and not actual side-by-sides. I'd wait and see what Digital Foundry has to say about it, hopefully they test this.

It's impossible to have a countdown when you're given to different times. Eitner its 18 minutes or 2 hours and 18 minutes.

Exactly. Its almost as if he's forced to belittle popular games. Every other month he says something like this. Its getting tiring. Hell, Braid was over-hyped too...

Well I am going to just hope it is not the case as I have no way of getting the money back from my preorder.

I think it's fairly even, until the probable PC (and PS4?/Xbox One) version hits.

Lol, I still remember waiting in line at midnight for GTA IV at the same location 5 years ago. It's crazy how quickly life goes by when you're out of high school.

Who knows by the next GTA, I'll probably have kids or something.

Just left my friend who's gonna go to his GS on his area to pick up his Collector's Edition. Meanwhile all you folks are waiting in line, I'm waiting for the crosstown bus to go home from my college; it's taking ages and it's kind of chilly outside.

Newegg charged my card and sent the game out. I didn't know Newegg was in Edison, New Jersey. Since it's in Jersey, I'll probably have it by Wednesday or Thursday but I won't have a lot of time to play it this week since I'll be busy this week/weekend (plus homework).

I wonder how the NYC launch at Union Square is going for any NYC GAF members that are there.

Yea NYC GAF reporting in. Went to Union Square to just see how insane it was. Line is fucking crazy. I took a couple of shots of the Banshee. I also got a few free beers courtesy of Rockstar/Take2. Had to head out to pick up my copy in a different GameStop. Pretty decent night so far.

When I read your post immediately an image popped up in my mind where Trevor is sitting in such a thing rolling downhill like in a gravity racer, screaming and laughing like a maniac.
But then I realized you are probably just talking about something like this.

Damn man... Can we just let people like what they like. If its not your cup of tea, that's fine, but no need to go the "brainwashing" route.

Nah you gotta assert your intellectual superiority for maximum points in the game of snobbish asshole.

Vol5 · Sep 17, 2013

I'm having a nightmare.

My DD PS3 copy is corrupt after taking around 8 hours to download. I won't be able to play now until about 2pm BST assuming a new download isn't also corrupt.

Not sure I can hold out. Might have to find a physical copy.

Indeed this is truly awesome.
Has anybody checked it out yet? Is it "just" a PDF or is it interactive to some degree?

Fully interactive native app. Universal too, optimized for iPad. It's fucking awesome.
