    No PC release has been announced yet. Could be months before it's even announced let alone released. PS3 or 360 only for now.

    like every other business ever in the history of everything?

    Most other businesses try and stay competitive and attract customers in whereas gamestop have in recent times started to give two fingers to customers by charging well above rrp for many titles. They're also not above lieing to customers in order to shift some product.

    +1...i have seen + overheard staff in William St. Limerick do this, several times....the staff are rude and clueless, especially the girls who have ZERO interest in gaming or being there.

    The manager of Gamestop Parkway SC is a top lad! :) - a real gamer, he has every console + handheld...he'll often chat away with you for 30 mins just talking gaming or consoles and knows his stuff.

    But overall, yes...Gamestop are rippoff merchants in every area of their business :mad:

    It looks pretty massive. Hope the areas outside the city are more lively then in San Andreas though, as that was quite boring at times. I do look forward to exploring though.

    I've just been reading up on this today - am I right in saying nobody will be able to play online until October 1st?

    'Grand Theft Auto Online' has 500 missions, takes place after campaign

    Grand Theft Auto Online contains more than 500 missions and takes place after the events of the main campaign, it has been revealed.

    The aim of GTA Online is to make money and accumulate assets such as cars and property, although there's no definitive conclusion

    Some of the 500+ missions can be completed solo, while others require a team, with players able to call for backup from biker gangs and airstrikes from security firms, and receive other technological perks by befriending criminal figures.

    http://www.digitalspy.ie/gaming/news/a514564/grand-theft-auto-online-has-500-missions-takes-place-after-campaign.html




    It'll take quite some time to complete this game.

  • Registered Users Posts: 132 ✭✭Praetorian22

    Same here. Even in real life I'll be thinking about things to do in GTA. I'll be walking past cars thinking of pressing triangle. And PES 2014 is released 3 days later. Dear lord.

    Finally got a job offer the other week, thought I'd be starting Monday, turns out it won't be for a couple of weeks - all I can think is how glad I am to have some time to play GTA!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,547 ✭✭✭✭Varik


    Heard that online starts before the events of the single player game rather than after.

    Makes it all the more sweeter for when you get back.

    I finish my contract in work tomorrow, so i'll have two or three weeks off to enjoy this. Really looking forward to getting stuck in.

    Nice :) I have Tuesday and Wednesday off work and will be doing nothing else on both days but playing it (and occasionally taking a break to roll a joint or eat :D)

    I'm really excited for the online aspect of this game. If the stock-exchange system and cash systems are as detailed as they're hinting it could be really cool to do things your own way. I was thinking of investing stock in train transportation system and then bombing up a lot of planes in the airports, nobody going by plane anymore and my stock would hit the roof (I think).

    I'm also thinking of setting up a team to solely intercept and take down other teams while they're performing heists so we can steal their loot. All the money and only a fraction of the heat. Guess I'll be glued to the in-game TV waiting for news choppers to show me what routes they're taking :P

    Ah man, so hyped. Getting PS3 version and game-sharing it online with someone else to save money.

    I don't think 65 quid for hundreds upon hundreds of hours of gameplay is that much, it's a night on the beer really. You get an absolute ton of value for money on games like this. Like cinema prices, I went to see Riddick the other night, cost me 20 bucks between the ticket, a drink, popcorn and sweets, and the film was sh1te, that's a third of the cost of GTAV and I'll still (hopefully) be playing that for months to come.

    I don't think anyone is saying that the game isn't worth €65... the point people are making is it's available for considerably less. The debate is about how much extra are you willing to pay to get the game at midnight next Monday. So, let me throw an example at you... if it was for sale for €25 on Amazon, and you were guaranteed to get it Thursday morning, would you still be buying from Gamestop for €65? Would you pay an extra €40 for 2 days play?

    I bought from Amazon for €42.63 delivered... €22.37 is my lunch for 2 weeks in work.
