    €59.99 for me in Xtra-Vision...with a free can of Burn,lol!

    Having the same prob as with Assassains Creed though now,can't hear the voices during cut scenes only the music,but can hear it during normal game play:(

    Anyone care to help?! I'm using a HDMI cable,and the settings are right for it AFAIK!

    What audio options does the game have? Are you just running the TV speakers via the HDMI cable?

    If the game is set to surround sound or 5.1 then the voices will go down the 'center' channel, your tv may not play this through the stereo speakers, try setting the sound to stereo in game, or your TVs audio menu may have options for surround or the center channel

    Was thinking along those lines too. Center channel missing if set to 5.1 etc.

    Just back from Clarehall to pick up my pre-order in Gamestop. The Ques were unreal, alot of people had the same idea. Not too sure on stock levels, but I heard them ask repeatedly to the que, 'do you have your deposits'. People who said no we're told there was no chance of getting a copy because they only had enough for pre-orders.

    Had a wander into Tescos for some monch, and there was no sign of copies there, don't think they are selling them till the morning by the looks of things.

    Anyways, the install is nearly ready. See y'all in LC!

    I was thinking of picking mine up at the weekend. Maybe even afterwards.

    Self-control? Patience?

    Yeah right.

    Too much ****ing work to do.

    Bastards with yer copies now.

    Where are you? I'll either buy GTA off you for €80 or sell you my 360 for €300.

    Woohoo just arrived home with my copy of GTA! I went to Tesco in Tallaght but they didn't have any so i decided to join a rather large queue in Game in The Square. I waited for about 40 mins but when I got to the counter I was asked for my Game card and then told that they were only open for pre-orders...

    I must have looked pretty degected because the guy behind the counter took pity on me and said it was cool! he even gave me 500 Xbox Live points. So big thank you to that dude from Game in Tallaght if he ever reads this!!

    Now to play.... :D:D:D:D:D

    Oh dear god. Sorry to hear that. Last thing you need right now. Slightly worried over this game then any other game I've bought for causing the dreaded RROD.

    Graphics seem good,game plays good,handling on the cars is going to take a lot of getting used to!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,748 ✭✭✭Cunny-Funt


    So whats the multiplayer like? In other words, are there cars and peds moving around the city like GTA1?

    or is it a big empty city like the GTA online mods

    Hell yeah, just got it on my lunchbreak in Tescos Maynooth, a lot of sleepy heads strolling in to pick up a copy.

    Only 19 PS3 copies and 23 suXBox copies ;)

    Crap, have to finish work and play when I get home.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,504 ✭✭✭✭DirkVoodoo


    I was blue top with the hat. Have ya played it yet? I've found it pretty hard to see at times, lots of shadowy places. Cars are tough to handle. Living up to the hype, not as revolutionary as I would have thought which isn't necessarily bad, it definitely feels like a GTA game from the get go.
