Next Day Delivery on GamePlay is Royal Mail Special Delivery which is guaranteed next day where as First Class is next dya most of the time, sometimes isn't and you can't complain if it doesn't come the next day. If Special Delivery doesn't come the next day you can get your money back I think?

 

Thats why i reckon mine really has been dispatched, they gaurantee it to be with me on tuesday so sending it monday could be too late as i haven't paid for next day

One of the most impressive things are the social interactions of it all. Every action has a reaction kind of thingh.

I've not read it, i take it they love it?

 

They gave it a perfect 10.

 

 

But all this realistic reactions, and it says how you will be walking down the street, and see people in coffee shops chatting away and it just excites me so much :D

 

I have never owned a GTA game, due to the fact I never owned a PS2 and didn't really bother with the PC versions.

 

Doubt I will be getting it soon though, looks like pretty much everywhere is already sold out of pre-orders.

Previous GTA's were good in the day but i can't really play them now.. framerate is crap etc.

 

If you go to a shop like Argos i'd say your pretty much sure to get a copy.. you can reserve it at a store now if you go in or reserve it at a store via online from around midnight monday.

 

Can't wait for this game :heh:

 

I looks almost as much fun as playing with my womans boobies :yay:

Rez what are the visuals like on GTA? Is there any problems like screen tearing or jaggy edges like Halo?

 

Also how does the frame rate hold up?

Frame rate is perfect. The graphics are actually not quite as good as in some screen shots/the few videos Ive seen, but it is still pretty impressive. Like the roller coaster, that looks really nice, and the general realism of everything like the wheels turning and moving on a car, and just how everything happens just gives it a really realistic feel. The graphics are great though, just not "OMG" but everything else just makes up for it. Its not even let down by the graphics so I cant really say that.

no mate, i'm a manager at argos. It only says out of stock becuase it's not been released yet. When the system for the website is updated for tuesday (prob around midnight) it will say you can reserve for store pickup. If you go to a store say tomorrow you could reserve one right there (like i did with Wii fit).

I dont think I know what screen tearing is but there is a little bit of jaggys, that you can kind of notice on the "story bits" especially on this guys hand. But its really not that bad.

 

The audio and script is amazing aswell. And the phone.

 

Its basically a life sim with emphasis on criminal based controls.

Recieved a mail a few minutes ago telling me the game has been shipped. I should have it on Monday.

If you check the shopto forums they havent posted them yet by the way. Despite any emails you get. Infact ill hazard a guess that any email you get before Sunday saying its been posted is false.

So is there a rule about spoilers in this thread yet? I don't want anything to spoil this game :shakehead

 

 

I was hoping that was a link :(

What do people mean by spoilers?

 

For me it's things that would be nice to figure/find out yourself when you play it. Little things like what you've been mentioning.. but thats prob just me taking the spoiler thing too far. I've not really read what you've said just so i don't ruin some things so it's no real biggie :)

 

Spoilers as a rule would be plot/storyline revealing etc.

I'm with you there though Smowza, I'd rather not know about the cool bits and bobs that you discover as you play.

 

I know this is a GTA4 thread but still, it hasn't been released. I don't want to know anything. I come here to find out how people's orders are doing and peoples impressions of the game, but not how to play the thing.

 

But, er, yeah. That's just me.

Bollocks are they bad now, they're still awesome, just as long as you're not touching them on a console

Didn't mean to offend m8, i've not played them on PC so i guess i should have excluded that : peace: Last one i played was GTA lib city stories, barely touched it (prob due to having a 360 and playing crackdown thou)
