I pre-ordered mine on the PS network, Goes live at 12:01 on tuesday. The only thing I hate is its gonna take pretty damn long to download (36 GB) but I figure I'll download it cause the days of me going out in the middle of the night to pick up a game are over, i'll just download it and play it in the morning.

Didn't PSN have pre-loading? Or did they pull that since people started "decrypting" the files?

No, when I pre-ordered it told me I could download it at 12:01 on the 17th. All I was allowed to download at the time of purchase was GTA V Theme. 

Meh, bonuses give me an incentive to shop at other stores. So what if they release it as something else down the road, usually they all come out to everyone else for free down the road any way.

Think your in the minority there, Id rather not be hauled round 2-3 stores and spending 2-3x on same game. Simply to have a full item set you barely use, or which is purely cosmetic. Im afraid I hark back to the days when you bought your disk/cartridge, and it came as a complete game, and any "dlc" you would have to enter a cheat code to get.

If Im to get any pre-order bonus it should be ?2-3 or $4-5 off of the game as a thank you. That will then do me nicely for some munchies as I go home and get stuck in, no?

That's why there's this thing called the internet. You can look at the games on their website.

But stores are offering different bonus's though. Everyone gets the blimp but stores are offering different bonuses to that to. I know Wal-mart is offering the blimp and a keychain. Game stop is just offering the blimp I think. The PSN is offering the blimp, a theme and a certain percentage off other rockstar games.

They aren't releasing it for the PC, at-least I don't think so.

Not yet, but seeing as every major GTA has a PC release (even the older ones), I'd be willing to bet they will eventually port it. I just hope they port it a little better than they did GTA IV, I have a pretty nice computer and even now GTA IV has graphical issues that other games which look a whole lot better do not.

 

If they do port it, we won't see anything until mid-late 2014 though, but its almost a guarantee that it's coming to PC IMO.

    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
    • Watch Louis Rossmann's recent experience on YouTube about trying to get a warranty replacement from Samsung. It's crazy.
    • That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.
    • They use FREE AI. They aren't paying for this meme-generating slopware...
    • Gotta' buy that there Rufus guy a beer if I ever meet him. He makes good stuff.
