the futureshop ones are never to busy. They usually have MORE then enough stock and let everyone in right away. You can get there just before they open no problem and get your copy with ease.

well I"m going there because of the free NECA headshot figurine with Cog tags.. lol.. or else I wouldn't be going there anyway. Besides, it's only 5min walk from my house.

Hmm just tried this online and....

I've never been so underwhelmed in my life.

Lag is measured in seconds rather than ms. Therefore people warp like we're playing on our old 56k modems back in 1997. Hits don't register properly and people are glitching about the map and sound effects are out of sync too! :s

Needless to say I'm unimpressed. :/

Your probably playing people not even close to your location like across the seas...

Are you sure its not just you? I watched a couple of leaked multiplayer gameplay and seem very smooth to me.

Agreed.

Try waiting until the game actually comes out before passing your judgement on the multiplayer...

Oh and Spookie, if you want to stay away from glitchers why not submit a player review against them and file a complaint? Submitting a player review will give you a less chance of joining their room.

It doesn't for me, I did that for PGR3. Ended up giving up in the end as I kept getting lumped with them.

System link? My connection is fine. sub 80 pings in WoW, 15 pings to local servers in TF2.

If you want a game on time, or before the release date stick with gameplay/game (same company now) or shopto. Game tend to be ruthlessly efficient when it comes to dispatch and Shopto work hard to get the games out as they are only a small company and need the biz.

    • Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last week, Rockstar revealed Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will be starting soon, and just a day ahead of that, now the studio has announced the official pricing for the highly anticipated game. This has been a hotly debated topic among fans and industry veterans for a long time, considering the game is expected to be the biggest entertainment product launch ever. The confirmed pricing for the Grand Theft Auto VI standard edition is $79.99, which Rockstar says gives access to the "single-player experience set in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the series yet." This follows what most of our readers thought would happen with the pricing too. At the same time, a $99.99 Grand Theft Auto VI: Ultimate Edition has been confirmed as well, which lands with "an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia’s story." Pre-ordering will also give fans extra bonuses, including a Vintage Vice City Pack of cosmetic items as well as a free month of GTA+. Head to the official website of the game here to check out all the cosmetic rewards the Ultimate Edition and pre-orders bring. Interestingly, the studio does not mention Grand Theft Auto VI multiplayer at all in today's announcement. Perhaps this will arrive later, following the campaign launch, or the studio is keeping that reveal for a later date. Digital pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will begin on June 25, 2026, at midnight local time across regions for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. The title is slated to launch on November 19 on those same platforms. Pre-loading for Grand Theft Auto VI will kick off on November 12, giving players a week to get the game ready on their consoles. As for the physical edition, Take-Two has confirmed that this will be available without a disc, with the box only containing a download code inside. This will be purchasable starting November 12, giving players who take this route time to pre-load the title as well.

    • Anyone Here With Turbo Pascal Experience?

      By Almohandis · Posted

      Turbo Pascal was my first real programming experience more than 30 years ago at university. I mostly taught myself from the included examples and help documentation, because the university only taught the basic syntax and philosophy of Pascal, without going deeply into Turbo Pascal’s advanced features. I still remember when I discovered that I could embed assembly language directly into Pascal code, call BIOS functions, manipulate screen memory, use mouse interrupts, and control peripherals from my programs. That opened huge doors for me. Programming back then felt really fun, direct, and close to the machine. What I loved about Pascal was its readability and the almost instant compile time. Turbo Pascal was an amazing environment, but unfortunately Turbo Pascal for Windows 3 did not feel like it fully carried that legacy forward. Later, Delphi got things back on the right track after the messy transition to TP for Windows. Sadly, Delphi suffered from years of uncertainty as it moved from Borland to CodeGear and then to Embarcadero. That instability made many developers lose confidence in it, even though Delphi itself remained a powerful and productive tool. I still work with Delphi from time to time, but I definitely miss the old days of Turbo Pascal.
