Have you pre-ordered GTAIV?

[Technologic]

I have just done so... have you? or will you be going to tescos or Asda at midnight to get hold of a copy?

[Fez]

Pre ordered the SE from game.co.uk the day I heard 'bout it.

[Energizer]

Na, not yet.

[e5]

Yeah dad has for PS3, one of my bday prezzies :D

[Neil]

Yep pre-ordered, only standard though, can't be bothered with the special edition version xD

[Azul]

Yeah, I don't normally pre-order because I feel you can get most games on launch but Game persuaded me with the 500 MS points and gamerpics.

[brandon]

No I haven't. Like Azul said I'm confident I'll be able to get hold of it on launch.

[c[__]]

I will soon :) for £35

[Wootzeh]

I havn't, will get it on the day of release though.

[GhostFace-]

no i didnt.

[Technologic]

Same here.. All the special edition is is an extra bag and a soundtrack CD :l.

I was tempted by it because I'm a huge GTA fan but I would rather get another game afterwards sometime

GAAAAH *stab stab stab*


The metal gear series is like best series ever.

MGS2 was hilarious, especially the bit with all the guards in the hall

[Ashley 12344]

Pre-ordered. Debating whether to go to one of the midnight sellers though.
Doubt I will - take a day off college but 'go' to college at normal time and get when shop opens.

I think you should either get it in the afternoon or the midnight release, it wont be worth messing your education up xD

[Ashley]

Haven't pre-ordered it yet, but I plan to. :D

[Technologic]

Lol, mine's getting delivered :D I don't have to trek into town to get my copy

[Moh]

No, im getting it during college (well some one whos 18 is :P)

[Ashley 12344]

I think you should either get it in the afternoon or the midnight release, it wont be worth messing your education up xD

Tbh, I think it will. This will be the death of my education.

Might cancel my GAME order and get HMV. Will student discount go on top of that?

[mangle]

Pre oredered in febs

[Ashley 12344]

How srict are GAME on ID?

[Neil]

How srict are GAME on ID?

Pretty strict, they wouldn't let me buy UT04 one day before my 16th birthday lol

[Azul]

Been in the papers recently too hasn't it? Get your parents to buy it you or summet.

[Oleh]

pre-ordered from hmv you get 1000 ms points free :P

[k]

Nope, will do though

[mangle]

pre order online , comes to my house

MEBBE EARLYYYYYY

[Ashley 12344]

Now I have a problem. I completely forgot about the ******** of an age restriction. Racking my mind as to who I know will be 18 and in town. Might tell my mate to pick it up with his fake ID, as I'm presuming GAME staff don't see as many ID's as bouncers and the like.

Why not ask your parents? :S

[Ashley 12344]

I want it on the day, and its pre-ordered from GAME. They won't be in town during the day I doubt.

I think someone from work should be able to get it. I work just around the corner, I'll just ask one of 'em to pop in briefly and get it on their lunch.

[Frodo13.]

I pre-orderd from GAME, over the phone. Will be going to the midnight release hopefully :)

I pre-ordered online, if I'm lucky I'll get it on the 28th because I pre-ordered from GAME xD

[Fez]

I cancelled my special edition pre order, I only wanted it for the soundtrack, and I want GT5P.

I'll order normal edition tomorrow

[Robbie]

Do you need to pay the full £39.99 when you pre-order, then pick it up on release day, or is it just a deposit?

[Johno]

AFAIK you get charged on the release day (on the GAME Website).

When pre-ordering in store, you normally don't have to pay anything, unless you want to pay for some (or all) of it when you pre-order, or you can wait till you pick it up.

[mat64]

Well I promised myself I would buy it along with either the PS3 or the Xbox, still debating which would be the better choice, however as a long standing Playstation boy I think that's where I may end up once again.

[Jericho]

Yes I have pre-ordered, look forward to my 500points and 4 pics from Gamestation.

Gonna have to pick it up with my Dad which is pretty stupid.

Anyway, cant wait! :D

[drama]

I've pre-ordered mine.

[CJW93]

Not going to pre order this because its not going to sell put everywhere, and I usually dont get games on day of release so its a no from me.

You pay on release day or when your order is siapatched depending if you order online or in store

[shizzle]

[Robbie]

[Neil]

MINES COMINNNNNNNNNNNNN THRU DA POST

With GAMEs history it'll more than likely come early but you never know really

[mangle]

Yeh , they may have signed some form of deal to secure no early release.

That said , i dont want it returning before my 360!

[shizzle]

Thats not me aswell, I get em later when its released a few days.

[Ashley 12344]

If I just ignore my pre-order at GAME, will they say/do anything? No cash been handed over or anything, just card and name taken.

And do HMV guarantee delivery on the 29th? Wanting to pre-order from there, as if its delivered I won't have to worry about the 18 age restriction as well.

[Energizer]

Please Note: We cannot guarantee delivery on the day of release for orders placed on or after the 7th of April.


Due to unprecedented demand for the standard editions of Grand Theft Auto IV, we are no longer taking pre-orders for this version. We do have the Limited Edition available for pre-order with delivery on launch day.

No it would probably interfere with my GCSEs because I would be on it constantly haha :P

[Andeeh]

hmm apparently its 1 of the highest pre-ordered game on play.com

[Breakfloor]

yeh, ive preordered it.

[Johno]

When GAME posted that little warning (I posted it up there ^) the Special Edition shot to the top of their Pre-Order Chart.

Shows that people are VERY willing to part with their cash for this game, I really want it but even though I might not get it for release, I can't justify paying for the special edition!

There is many reason why paying for special edition is good but no point if you don't really care, I only really want the game xD

I was only gonna get it for the soundtrack , IV's music is epic, but MGS4 got 12 June release date and I cancelled my SE order

[Grindie]

I cancelled my pre-order with amazon today, they had a scheduled delivery date of 7th-13th may

I'm not sure what i'm going to do now, I have exams in 4 and a half weeks so i don't really want to be addicted to it

I'll see how it goes, i still have a few weeks to decided I spose..

[Fez]

I think Rockstar went smart about the release date, makes under 18s ,taking exams, think twice about getting it. 'Cos of all the fuss from Jacky Thompson etc.

[Neil]

The release date is because the biggest target age group finishes school about may, these being 15-17 year olds, they finish school and now have a lot of spare time, so GTA4 is there for them now, then the summer holidays slowly creeping up which means more people buying it to keep them entertained

[Fez]

Yeah, I guess so. But kids taking there exams won't get it because it'll affect there concentration. Younger schoolers will get it but it'll keep a few bugs off Rockstar's neck

[Neil]

They don't really care xD They're in it for the money, they don't care if a bunch of kids skip school to play it and I highly doubt many kids will choose to put education before GTA4 to be honest

[Ashley 12344]

The majority of companies couldn't give half a **** about people messing up exams. Its all about profits.
