20 minute drive into Dundalk. Have to work for a few hours in the morning and already tired due to flu. If I got it tonight I more than likely would stick it on just for a 'minute'

Obviously though I'd end up playing it all night and be fcuked in the morning!

have to figure the 25-30 minute install in as well

Apparently for xbox users its recommended not to install the play disc (disc 2) because its faster to load textures from 2 areas as opposed to having it all load from the hard drive.

Not sure if I'll be following that recommendation though, the Xbox is a bit too loud otherwise.

EDIT : Didnt see the other thread on it

I've just been up in Tesco Artane and got a friend to ring over to Clearwater where his mate works after seeing this, in the hope that I'd get a copy.

He said it's absolute bull. First of all the game's 55, and they haven't put any dummy boxes or anything on the shelves, the display stand is just empty.

Your mate's just fobbing you off.

You just said it was a photo he posted on facebook, and you aren't with him because you were watching the match.

And it's 100000% 55, I'm literally just after being up in the store.

Right lads, out of office is on and I'm done. I'm not coming back to work until I'm at least 25% of the way through this bad boy.

There'll be a lot of ignored wives and girlfriends/boyfriends tonight :pac: awful dose of flu going around from midnight tonight too

You get a virtual chop that you can teach tricks, That he will be able to do in the actual game!

You can also reserve a licence plate for a custom car in the game with the iFruit app.

I was in the omni one the other day and a guy switched his pre-order from another gamestop to the omni one. But it's definitely too late now

Can someone please tell me the opening hours of Gamestop in Stephens Green SC for the midnight event?
I mean if they open at midnight, will they stay open for the rest of the night? I'm hoping to drop by on my way to work in the morning.

They're 'hoping' to be closed by 1am.

Open all night? Nope. All gamestops are opening at 8 tomorrow I think.

Would this be the GTA flu that's doing the rounds at the moment?

This game is amazing, been driving around for about an hour and finally made it to the top of the mountain, worth it for the view up there. I might never leave the house again if it weren't for college.

I'm heading up at 11 to Artane, if there's a huge queue at Tesco and xtravision I'll just go home. And cry.

Anyone else really happy that Rockstar delayed it until September? Reviews make the delay sound extremely justified.

"Now I've only seen a trailer on youtube"

then shut up about something you're admitting your own ignorance about George.

By this logic why isn't this TD asking for tv shows like Game of Thrones to be banned? it's easier to watch stuff like that than play GTA for most kids, I don't know any 12 year olds who have a spare 65 quid lying around.

I don't need to listen back to that then to know what tone the piece took. :rolleyes:

When are the mainstream media going to grow a set of balls and say "It's an 18s game. Your kids shouldn't be playing it, no moreso than they should be watching hardcore pornography. If they do, it's on YOU. You made the choice to spawn a mini-you, don't punish the rest of us because you couldn't put a rubber on."



Argh, this "Vidja james r evul" debate gets my bloodpressure up without fail every time.

Furp

This is not really a spoiler but if you have an ios device you should check the App Store, search rockstar games and look for something new. Give you something to do for the next few minutes of anticipation.

Yeah, I got shipping confirmation around 4pm.

I'd say if you haven't got it by now, the chances of you getting the game tomorrow are slim unfortunately. Unless they give it to a courier in the morning and it could be with you in the evening.
