Dunno why anyone would be desperate enough to go and buy this at midnight! Isn't it just vice city with a bit more freedom and eye candy?

monkeyleader · 28-10-2004, 4:58 PM

You are joking yer - this is like saying Halo2 is going to be like Halo1 with a bit more eye candy ... each to their own I guess but yer if I could I would be down at 12:00am getting it ...

i also heard a few spoilers on the radio too!! grrr

Didn't think about this at all. As I am working nightshift I'll try my local tescos then come back and start playing it at work. I'll be playing this and getting paid at the same time

Im getting mine with a shiny new PStwo at about 10am, shop opens at 7am but im not that desperate for it.

Its going to be my first GTA experience, hope it lives up to all the hype.

prepare to be amazed. and what a game in the series to start on. problem is if u like it so much and wanna try GTA 3 and VC u will be dissapointed by them as this is meant to be such a leap in the series

I thought of the Tesco idea earlier but just read in another thread that a guy rung Asda to see if they would sell it at midnight but they replied they will be selling the game at 8am not midnight.
Will Tesco be selling the game at midnight for definate? I have to be up at 5 20 am tomorow so dont really want to go to tesco and find they wont be selling it untill 8.

I downloaded it 2 days ago, and have been playing it off my PS2 Hard Drive
The game is really good, about 8hrs play so far

Del Boy Smiffy · 28-10-2004, 10:08 PM

Charlton Fan · 28-10-2004, 10:24 PM

Ahhh, it's slipped out of my grasp! Had a letter from the PO saying they tried to deliver it today but no one was in and they had closed by the time I got home. I'll have to pick it up tomorrow AM b4 work and stare at it all day until I can get home.

I stuck it on for a bit the other day but GTA games aren't really my thing. If you like the others then you'll like this it's more of the same really - nice graphics although the fuzzy effect is a bit weird!

Del Boy Smiffy · 28-10-2004, 10:27 PM

Im a sports and driving games man, i bet i hate this. :-/

Kinda hard to define as the whole experience is so huge.. you have to work yourself through the mafia underworld in general terms but the game is so much more than that.. it brings all genre's like driving, shooting etc in one package. I kinda see it as a whole 'virtual world' where you can do almost anything you choose!

Yeah I must say i'm a sports & driving games man myself and whilst this is a good game that will appeal no doubt to quite a few people, I can't really be arsed with it. I enjoyed driving around and smashing up the bikes & cars that i'd nicked but couldn't be bothered with the missions. I'll probably give it another bash sometime but I find that these games take up too much time and that's precious time that could be spent playing PES4!

Yep, PES is too important, i know what'll happen, i'll play it for an hour, then PES will start calling me and that'll be the end of GTA SA.
