Spoiler alert! Instagram/Vine user, jsticks11, is leaking footage, as are youtube users TheVideosIncredible2 and GrandTheftAuto5z

 

Had a quick look, short but interesting clips.

 

I'm really surprised the game hasn't long since leaked, Halo, Gears, CoD have all leaked like a month before retail. Rockstar have done something right it appears!

I don't see why, it stops people losing out because they pre-ordered from the one store around that only had one pre-order bonus, while somebody in another city gets a better one, etc.

Nah, you should be able to choose what you want. That's what I liked in other games, I got to have what other players didn't and it gave me a choice in which store I would buy the game from. 

So you just want better stuff than other players then?

There's only one "game" shop around me, nobody else is doing any form of preorders for games, in that situation I don't have a choice about what stuff I get when preordering. The fact that the bonus is consistent means I don't miss out.

Im with The_Decrypter, store exclusives are a load of mince.

What happened to just buying the game? Why do we need all this fragmented content?

To fool you into thinking your getting something special on top?

Or so that if you want to collect these store exclusives you have to buy more than 1 copy of the game from more than 1 outlet.

Then ofc they release it all 6 months later as a GOTY Edition.

Internet shopping?

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.

Rarely free, usually DLC.

Off the top of my head I don't know of any good places that would ship here, Amazon fluctuate between considering us a penal colony and an actual country so randomly refuse to ship things here.

Yeah, the RDR pre-order bonuses were paid DLC, the Fallout New Vegas bonuses were paid DLC, etc.

    • VidCoder 12.20 by Razvan Serea  VidCoder is a DVD/Blu-ray ripping and video transcoding application for Windows. It uses HandBrake as its encoding engine. Calling directly into the HandBrake library gives it a more rich UI than the official HandBrake Windows GUI. VidCoder can rip DVDs but does not defeat the CSS encryption found in most commercial DVDs. You’ll need the NET 8 Desktop Runtime. If you don’t have it, VidCoder will prompt you to download and install it. The Portable version is self-contained and does not require any .NET Runtime to be installed. You do not need to install HandBrake for VidCoder to work. Feature list: Multi-threaded MP4, MKV containers Completely integrated encoding pipeline: everything is in one process and no huge intermediate temporary files H.264, H.265, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, VP8, Theora video Hardware-accelerated encoding with AMD VCE, Nvidia NVENC and Intel QuickSync AAC, MP3, Vorbis, AC3, FLAC audio encoding and AAC/AC3/MP3/DTS/DTS-HD passthrough Target bitrate, size or quality for video 2-pass encoding Decomb, detelecine, deinterlace, rotate, reflect, chroma smooth, colorspace filters Powerful batch encoding with simultaneous encodes Customizable Pickers to automatically pick audio and subtitle tracks, destination, titles and more Instant source previews Creates small encoded preview clips Pause, resume encoding VidCoder 12.20 changes: Updated HandBrake core to 1.11.2.

    • Too soon, I'm still not over this death!
    • Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary to compete against AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update bug that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.
    • ALL versions or ALL SUPPORTED versions? Neowin does it again.
