Benji Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 I was just offered a cookie in line by some kid too young to be buying this game.Oh jeez, this. For a midnight release, the amount of kids and parents with them buying the game for them was ridiculous. This is a school night, and you're out past midnight with them buying an M rated game for them? Quality parenting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDK Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 How about a separate thread for spoilers and discussion of gameplay while us plebs are waiting for the postman to ring twice? My missus isn't around for him to shag, so I doubt he'll hang around for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaney Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 I think that's not really needed cos in a few hours pretty much everyone will have it anyway no? Just picked my copy up. I still can't wrap my head around buying a strategy guide when you've not even played the game yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris2K Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 It's on its way We received item QE030560967GB at Chippenham DO on the 2013-09-17. The item is now ready for delivery. It had better be, Royal Mail. It had better be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still can't wrap my head around buying a strategy guide when you've not even played the game yet. 100%'ers. I do it with FF games. Play it once without the guide, then start a new game aiming for 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colly Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 I've had a text to say somethings getting delivered today. Bearing in mind I a) haven't ordered GTA (skint and my 'to play' pile is huge) and b) am in London for the next two days, I think Royal Mail are trolling me.

GoGo Yubari Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 I've been playing the game for 40 minutes. First "holy shit it's GTA" moment was when I ran into some random thief driving down the street, boxed him in between a couple cars, dragged him out, and Garvin Stomped him to death. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 I wish Trevor had more customisation options. Oh well, mullet and hobo beard will have to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaney Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Apart from some texture pop up in the opening video bit it's been gorgeous. I spent the first five minutes with Franklin just customising his phone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benji Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 I haven't delved into customisation, I got a near-bald haircut and some stubble for Franklin and that's it. Does anyone know if you can customise the crosshair? The tiny one you get is tough for me to aim in the wrong lighting/background. Oh, and my gamertag is benjirino, but send me a message somewhere when you add me, cause I tend to ignore names I don't recognise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 For a current gen game and the size of the world. It does look very nice. There's a scene with Trevor when you overlook Los Santos at night and it looks amazing. I went to the top of Mount Chiliad last night on a quad which was fun but the weather was awful so the view was terrible. Then I attempted to jump off the quad and parachute onwards but ended up being impaled on a tree 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoGo Yubari Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 For anyone who doesn't know already, I'm mechamummy on XBox Live. ADD ME.First impression is that I'm liking it but after a week and a half of heavy San Andreas playing it's clear I'm going to need time to adjust. I definitely don't love the tiny dot crosshair, and the controls feel very weighted where I think SA had the perfect balance. When I played Vice City the controls were way too loose for the way I like to scramble around and be reckless, but V is taking a while for me to adjust to. World itself looks fantastic. The camera angle is another thing I have to process but everything looks really good, and I loved being able to suddenly just drop in on a robbery in progress and take down the thief.I'm now going to bed because I have work in the morning but I imagine my entire afternoon/evening is going to be GTA non-stop.
