[Official] Grand Theft Auto IV

[Sethos]

Well, have a few copies coming :laugh:

My Online Order has been packed.

And I've Pre-ordered 4 Copies from my Local EB games in a trade-in ( 3 x Xbox 360 games for 1 GTA IV + 25$ Gift certificate ).

So I'm gonna sell 3 copies, take on of those orders as a PS3 version so i can compare the two games.

WTF?

Nutter for preordering as many :p

[Sethos]

On the bright side, I'm getting rid of all my cheap Xbox 360 games i never play, plus the money i make will make up for what i paid.

So I'm getting the game for free, plus 4 x Gift Certificates, Plus 3 Happy friends who get the game a bit cheaper and cleaned out in all my 360 games :laugh:

JTV cut my feed off .. think Rockstar is applying pressure

can't you just make a new feed under a different name?

[JMSASRA]

IMHO, putting multiple preorders in is a very sensible idea. Remember what happened with the Wii? Everywhere was sold out in less than a day, and people were flogging them for ludicrous prices.

If you were to sell them while people were still able to happily murder to get their hands on a copy, then theres a lot of money to be made

Well done that man! eBay is waiting!

Yeah make the stream but dont name it GTA 4, name is something random, like "cooking chicken with ketchup" or something... that wont raise a flag... unless they are hungry.

My brothers copies have been despatched from gameplay. So if my special edition doesn't turn up on tuesday... my brothers copy would suddenly not turn up and find its way into my 360 ;)

[JMSASRA]

what are we all complaining about? its not even officially released until tuesday, so monday is a miracle!

If you had put in your order with Game then you would have been guaranteed a release day delivery, but the pre-orders are sold out now

I think its more of a interest thing, normally I get the game on Thursdays when they are meant to be released on Friday.

However is odd to release a game on Tuesday.

Here in North America, games, movies (dvds) and music gets released on Tuesdays. Movies (theatres) open on Friday. Must be different across the pond.

It's odd for the UK to have a game release on Tuesday but this relates back to the US and having their game releases on Tuesday. Hence for a worldwide release and to stop the pirating of the game where people will download the game since it isn't available at retail in their region Tuesday was selected as the day for world wide release.

That may be true, but it's a bit different with games. They are very easy to mass produce. They may be sold out for a week or so. But by the end of the month everyone that wanted the game will have it by then.

[JMSASRA]

But still the game will be tricky to get hold of for a while. if he sells it say the day after release day, then people will be tripping over themselves to get their grubby mitts on it.

[jelli]

Huzzah! My order has been posted from Play.com

[ramsy66]

I ordered from Amazon UK. Hopefully my copy will be shipped Monday. I called them and they say they haven't even recieved their delivery of games yet though!

Best be shipped tomorrow otherwise I'll be angry.

I am picking it up tonight from a guy who claims to have the PS3 version on Craigslist for $85

[gregb0b]

Just went to the mall and pre-ordered it in full from GameStop :). IGN's 10/10 review really sold me :|!

[richardsim7]

Everywhere's sold out!! :(

-Rich-

[Sethos]

I'm dying to see how much it sells, really looking forward to the salesnumbers.

But I'm glad i can sit back and relax, my copy has just been shipped today, so i could possibly have it by Monday if I'm lucky.

One of the restrictions in sales would be that, the next gen consoles have not penetrated the market as much as San Andreas did. It does push console sales though.
