    Re: So who's off to get gta4 in an hour and a half?

    I considered it, I really did, but its just too much like hard work. I think I'll retire to my bed, have a nice 8 hours, and get a lift to somewhere tomorrow morning.

    I don't want to be playing it at 4am this morning.

    For anyone off out into the night though, have fun.

    Re: So who's off to get gta4 in an hour and a half?

    If IGN are telling the truth its - the best game so far this generation, the game of the year, the best looking game ever, the best acted and scripted game ever, the most realistic game ever, the first game to score a perfect 10 for over a decade, the best game since Ocarina of Time, and pretty much the best thing since sliced bread.

    And if, when I'm playing it tomorrow its not, I'll be pissed right off. I will believe the hype!

    my brother got it this morning (delivered), apparently it's really really good, and decent graphics, but he's not very good 'cause there's no cheats

    Well you can tell me in an hour or so.

    Drag yourself away after the first mission and tell us if the hype monkey was telling the truth.

    I got mine from Eldon Square (Newcastle) Game

    HMV did a midnight launch, with a load of charvs waiting outside while their parents bought them the game, no joke one kid looked about 6!!

    was a quick trip though, got my student discount and played for over an hour already, bit tired now though

    Re: So who's off to get gta4 in an hour and a half?

    I'm waiting for mine to arrive... The bugger? I've got an exam to go to for 11.50, and about 11 is when the post turns up

    Gonna have to wait a few more hours.

    I was coming back from band praccy last night, was about 11.45, and there's an asda next to where we live, took a look in, there was a queue of literally 60 people waiting at the entertainment desk. I heard the security guard say to someone else that walked in 'Are you one of the lucky ones who got a ticket?'.... Ticket! They were sold out hours before it went on sale.

    Halo 3 launch, I went down... Noone there!

    Re: So who's off to get gta4 in an hour and a half?

    I ordered one with a ps3 online along with 2 other small items. For some reason they posted the small items fine, then the card declined the ps3 I moved house recently, so I guess it's to do with the change of address, but what **** timing.
