    Do you have an external hard drive (USB 3) that you could go to someone's place and download to that by signing there.

    Buy it on disc. It's 70 on PSN so it's basically the same price as Gamestop.

    GTA V is 75gbs so same if not more. Much more if you get it on PS4 Pro or XOX. 4K stuff usually comes in a patch yeah?

    I have pre-ordered the regular but I'm tempted to go special edition

    Actually scratch that it's 89.99 in smyths even with the fiver off that's too much of a jump for me

    With the trade in 2 games and get new game for a euro offer in Gamestop, you can pay the price difference for the special edition on top of the offer, so extra 20 euro

    Most likely alright,it certainly wont be less than that,add in the Multiplayer and it could be getting to over 80gb..

    I never played the original, is it basically a western version of GTA?

    Pretty much yea. Same mechanics, but you don't go around stealing horses to the same extent that you steal cars in GTA.

    Try and get your hands on it. I've played through it recently and it still holds up. Plays well and the vistas are still unreal.

    If you've an Xbox One you can play it via Backwards Compatible.

    Also if you're on PS4, you can get a free trial of ps now and play it on that.

    Special edition can be got for around 63 Euro on the Indonesian PSN Store. I’ve noticed that most preorders there are around €22 cheaper than Irish PSN. Only thing I’m not sure of, is if the preorder dlc is tied to the purchasing account or not.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,252 ✭✭✭AidoEirE


    So thinking of getting a pro for this. I know gamestop do the 99e offer. 2 questions

    -where can i get the list of games for the price, cant seem to find it

    -more importantly
    I play on a 1080p tv, will the pro make much of a difference on the tv compared to the ps i have now?


  • Registered Users Posts: 274 ✭✭scottigael

    Have you done this, does it actually work with red dead as I dont see that game on 1 euro list?

    It'll make things look nicer even on 1080p screen, better framerate with the supersampling feature it renders the game like it would with a 4k TV but makes the 1080p picture better.

    I was in Gamestop today and asked about it as offer says standard edition only. The sales assistant said I could pay the difference for the special edition which would be an extra €20 .The offer is on all new games. I haven’t preordered yet as not sure if I will go digital instead

    Never considered upgrading to the pro until reading this thread. Is it worth the upgrade?

    Also I need decent headphones. Playing ps4 through a PC monitor with built in speakers. Decent monitor but cant help feeling I'm missing out on game immersion.

    I got these last summer for 70e, price seems to have gone up now, shop around and you'll get it for that price. They are fantastic though, brilliant
    surround sound and very comfy. Best pair ive ever gotten, couldnt recommend them enough

    Edit: a link might help :p

    Cheers. Prolly not for me so, I tend to get burned out with GTA fairly quickly.

    Going by that GameStop offer, anyone know what two games would be the cheapest to pick up second hand?

    Only realising now you can play the original in 4K/30 FPS on Xbox One X. Wish the PS4 Pro had the feature! PS Now is fine, but it looks worse than the PS3 version. (which only ran at between 20-30 FPS 640p anyways)
