    Wanker! I'm stuck in work and you get to play SA early. The world is unfair. Damn these people who "know" the shopkeepers. :)

    I'm seething with jealousy. I preordered my copy yesterday in a videoshop cum game store while a friend was working there and he didn't give me a copy.

    A friend of mine works in Xtravision and told me that the release was to be broken today at 6, if not earlier. I wouldn't be surprised if it was out at lunch time.

    Do you mean xtravision will break it by 6 or that some one will break it by 6.

    I'm not excited. Then again I never really played any of the games, bar the second one I think, properly.

    Yeah im just kinda 'meh'. GTA3 was revolutionary, VC was fun but just a rehash with motorbikes. SA looks like a re-rehash with bicycles. Ohh ohh, and haircuts.

    I was kind of excited about playing this but after seeing the ad for it last night my interest plumited. I'm just gonna rent it on Friday and give it a whirl.

    More of the same will do me deadwing. I'll be home by 6 so will check if they broke the release date. If I don't reply its because I'll be too busy playing it.

    xtra-vision sometimes break release dates with video's, but not that often with games, i think. i work in chartbusters, right across from an xtra-vision store, and we basically do whatever they do.

    So if you see it somewhere else, xtra-vision will quickly follow.

    I'm more concerned about the amount of little skangers I'm gonna have to deal with in work this weekend. As one who owns only a GameCube, I won't be playing it.
    And the GBA GTA is also out this weekend if anyone's interested.

    The Computer Centre in Kilkenny (opposite Compustore) had it for sale last Friday I think, only saw it on the shelves there but didn't do anything else (the whole not having a ps2 yet is a bit of a kicker). They usually break nearly every release date, mainly because not many people know they exist...

    Ye nevermind going to xtravision and the likes. Head down the ****tiest shops you can find cos there more likely to have it early and they probbaly wont even be after taking prebookings on it
