I had mine pre ordered and paid off in full for months. I got the collectors edition.

Also have pre ordered and paid off in full

MGS4 LE X2
MGS LE GUIDE X2
FALLOUT 3 CE X2


All I see is a black hole, and sooner or later they’re going to suck each one of us into it. But when they come for me, I'm going to take as many of them with me as I can.

Preordered? Pfft. I downloaded my copy a couple of days ago. I gotta say, I'm not that impressed so far. With Niko's accent it's like playing Borat - The Game Of The Movie and the controls are totally off from what I've come to expect from a GTA title. But maybe I'm just nitpicking.

From what I've seen so far (only about 2 hours into it, damn work), I would say that Vice City is still the best game in the series.

Do you remember the old anti-grav cheats? Yeah that's pretty much what the driving is like this time around. I used to be pretty good at driving in GTA but I just cannot get a handle on the cars in this one!

I'm guessing 360 since there is no mod chip for PS3

Yeah I've got it on 360. The PAL version got leaked a whole day ahead of the NTSC version. I had to take precautions though. If I get caught playing it early then I will definitely be banned from Live so I have to leave my ethernet unplugged and reset the system clock so any achievements I get won't show me playing the game a week before I am meant to!

I think it's more like Yakov Smirnov the movie to my ears.

I got the phone call today about the midnight release on Monday. The festivities start at 6pm. My Gamestop is like 2 miles from the projects and I know most of the trashiest people in Stratford are going to show up

The GF gave me a $50 gift card recently, so I may as well get the new hotness with it. I was skeptical at first, but I'm interested to see how the GTA series advanced. I'll probably get it Tuesday/Wednesday.

I'm not huge with online gaming...Think I should go for the PS3 or 360 version? I hear the PS3 version has a lot less pop-in, which I hate.

I'd go with the PS3 version... I second my thought on the 360 pick-up...

Especially with the ring of fire still out there. With all that's in this game, I fear it will be the end of alot of xbox's

I really hope the PC version comes out soon but knowing rockstar it will be at least 6months to a year.

Yeah, I'm about to be on xbox number five or six. I lost count. They really are the most poorly manufactured electronic devices in recent memory.

I hear there's an optional install for the 360 version, though I haven't read it on any real website. Just hearsay.
