Its torture! I'll probably end up buying it anyway...

Nope. We're grown ups. With jobs.

And we can stay up all night playing it if we want to!

Hhhmmmmm.... now if only I had a copy.

Yup, I'm in exactly the same boat. Have the leaving cert to get out of he way, then I'll get it.


Bloody leaving cert...

A lot of my friends have the leaving cert too, and they aren't even allowed play the xbox 360! Then there's a mate that has chemistry exams coming up.

As much as i love the GTA games, i think its better to just pass the exams then play GTA as much as i want after.

Well there is an "Addiction" title in the stats menu, maybe you could play just a little bit??

ahh the joys of doing college work placement.

you still feel like you're in college but you get paid and have your nights free to play GTA

Showing how lack of GTA is the cause of crime not the game itself

Ah you'll learn more about life from GTA than you will from a secondary school education. It's a tough world out there.

the worst thing they did was relesase it on a monday nite sure if be a fri or sat

I get paid tomorrow. I'm strongly considering going out and buying a 360 with GTA IV. Then I may stay up all night drinking expensive imported beer and eating expensive pizza. Cos that's what you can do when you have a job.

I suppose just after the exams are finished, when you are free to lounge about all summer long would be a good time for you?

Stephen

sucks to be you :pac:

Amen brother! Still though... work is pretty much getting in the way of me being able to actually pick up said pre-order. Tis a double edged sword!

Im on placement from college so have money but the only copy of the game i could get is at home in Galway and Im in Leixlip role on Friday!!

thebman

Its a conspiracy to make you fail your exams so you stay immature and remain in the target audience for the game

Clearly! Several newspapers will be running with this story and are interested in your comments, PM me for details

Failure is not an option...

Ciaran500

Got the game and have exams in two weeks. Was orignially planning not to but I feel I can manage it, I just stopped playing a few minutes ago to study (hence why I'm reading boards)

Holsten

I had it in my hand and didn't buy it.

Same as others, exams in two weeks!

Unearthly

I'm in the middle of exams right now, so annoying
