    Yeah, bet there's some cracking views of Los Santos from the blimp. Wonder if you can base jump from it? That would be effing awesome :D

    Back to the map...this video shows how three GTA IV maps can comfortably fit inside GTA V, with plenty room to spare: http://youtu.be/Kip1zIXx9h8

    I got a cheesy email from Amazon for my pre-order.

    Apparently i'm getting an Atomic* Blimp bonus DLC

    *Atomic Blimp doesn't have any nuclear capabilities.

    Well I got mine from Amazon as well? Wonder if I'll get a blimp?

    I'm sure GAME are advertising this with their pre-orders. I've opted for the tin version (which is exclusive to them in the UK I think)

    They've got their version of Facebook up and running now....

    Lots of money off of things for "stalking" the companies...

    Still not as big as Just Cause 2 though....that was 400 square miles! :D
    I think GTAV is about 50....

    But the Just Cause 2 map does feature a lot of very similar looking areas, and was maybe a bit too big! Hopefully GTA's will all look different.....

    My pre-order has been cancelled! They tried to bill a card that doesn't exist anymore; it did exist when I ordered it, but I've since removed it from my account and added a current one, not sure why they didn't just charge that instead?! Anyway, I've re-pre-ordered it now, hopefully it'll still arrive in time. :(

    The opening 30 minutes of the game: http://youtu.be/dKga5dQecJE

    Due to my impatience and lack of willpower, I watched a fair chunk of it, and now wish to have my memory erased. :-P

    What big game just came out or is out as of today?

    Reason why I ask is because earlier this morning I was expecting a package in the mail but I missed the postie. I waited for him on the corner a few houses down. He recognized me and said he had my parcel.

    As he rummages around in his white Postman Pat van he says something to the effect of lot of people have been waiting for the game, and then he hands it over. I thanked him and started walking back home with my package.

    A house down the street I went over what he said. He must have assumed I was waiting on a game and apparently I'm not the only one waiting on it today.

    It's not this thread's name-sake, is it?

    PS For those who are wondering, it was not a game but an Android tablet I was expecting, and got.

    It was probably GTA V, Norm. It's a big release (the biggest of the year) and due out Tuesday, but a lot of people will be hoping for it to be delivered a day or two early.
  • edited September 2013
    Hmm, well I must assume then that some people hereabouts have been getting it today.

    Is it only available physically? Do they offer something like what Steam is all about? i.e. digital download version?

    (Sorry, don't know much about consoles beyond PS2 (BARELY!))

    I appear to be back in business! Pre-order now shows up as "shipped" (although I haven't received an email saying so). Fingers crossed it arrives on time...

    I'm hanging fire I'm a sod for losing interest in gta's. I've only ever completed vice city and I'm just playing through san andreas at the moment. I've played the others for a short while then something happens where I don't game for a bit and I lose interest. It's been rekindled recently with redballoon's edge cover. So I've popped off and got some HD mods and I'm getting into them again. Although must admit the online aspect makes want to get it asap although doubt my pc is up to it, it can just about do san andreas. So I'm torn between ps3 and my 360.
