gaggle64 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Wait just a few days, as soon as all the pre-orders are filled, GTAIV will be stacked on shelves in all their glorious post-first-week-sales abundance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spirited away Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Why the fuck didn't I preorder this? Stupid... Stupid... Same here. I didn't because of exams. Now i'm kicking myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babooo Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I'm surprised people are still gonna buy this even though they've got exams....its the only reason why I'm not buying it right now...my A levels are far too important to overlook. But in saying that, some people manage to do things in moderation and not get obsessed by things such as games as I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariosmentor Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Just away to buy it right now. Got a pal at gamestation to hold me back a copy. Play it for awhile then head into college to get my script torn apart by some guy who's call to fame is he is in talks with writing for the new shameless season. Huzzah!

Dyson Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I'm worried by the fact that I still can't track and trace my package... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluejay Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I can't wait until we're the ones writing the trashy bullshit while our kids reverse over a prostitute again in a virtual holo-suite. Hahaha. Inevitable. Also, I hope teh kids of tommorow can do better than virtual holo-suite in terms of controversial new mediums. Same here. I didn't because of exams. Now i'm kicking myself... Your boat. I'm in the same one. Also, a series of unlucky unevents (i.e everything under the sun breaking and needing repair/replacement, bar my 360 strangely enough) has left me short of cash. I will enjoy it more post exams. Saying this, if I have the cash in hand and the game is in stock somewhere in the immediate future, the game will be bought so hard and so fast.

McPhee Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 For those who didn't pre-order the supermarkets don't take orders and have a considerable amount of stock. Most Tesco and Asda stores are doing a midnight launch, Sainsbury's will be 7am for most of the country. All 3 will have stock until 9am, maybe later.

Moohawk! Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Ooo if only Zavvi weren't giving me 6 months of Live free, I'd say bollocks to the five pound deposit and I'd be straight over to Asda around the corner to get this right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingojackass Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I think you misunderstand me.. i'm only buying it to put on my desk un-wrapped as a cheeky tease/motivator. And yeah don't get this if you're doing your A-levels (i bought windwaker when i was your age and didn't help things). Do you think the shelves will be filled again by Friday?

Adrian DX Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 anyone else got problems connecting to live? I just got home with my Special Edition GTA IV and the 500 live points + gamerpics thingy and 12 months of live, but I can't seem to get a stable connection to live =/ Could it be that GTA is more than Microsofts servers could handle?

gaggle64 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Probably, they've been predicting this for awhile. Half the universe is going to be trying to log in over the next 24hrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice9 Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I just got back from Asda. No GTA for me. Turned up at 11:15 to find at least 150 people there, the guy said they wouldn't have any more left. Going into town tomorrow morning to try and hunt for a copy. The hit list; Tesco Metro WH Smiths Woolies Argos HMV Game/Gamestation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mariosmentor Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Got to gamestation at 11.30. Got the game at 12.10. Excellent, the Gamestations actually in a Blockbuster so they handed out popcorn and drinks, the only bad points were the taxi I booked never showed up and i ran out of cigs. Now to fire it up and dissapear off the radar for the next month or two. Lol. Trying to get Rab from Consolevania to play a game of it with me.

Guest Stefkov Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Anyone with HMV preorders able to track their parcel? Nope. Like I said, it won't say anything until you're holding it in your hands. They don't update very well on there. The countless times I've used it and it's just rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domo Kun Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Processing: 28/04/2008 What does ‘Processing’ mean? We are currently processing payment for your order, which should be completed within 24 hours. Once payment is complete, we aim to dispatch orders within a further 24 hours. If we experience problems processing payment we will contact you by email to help you to resolve the problems, if possible. -play.com I pre-ordered on saturday. Does this actually mean I'll get the game on wednesday/thursday, or have they just taken my money without having enough stock before I can cancel and buy it somewhere else?

Zell Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Turns out my local Tesco only had six copies, and we were the sixth in queue! Haven't played it yet, only glanced at the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the small details just make this game so awesome. They've thought about ALOT of stuff when sowing this piece together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mariosmentor Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Out of curiosity who's bought it on the 360 and who's got it for the PS3? 360 personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
