    aqny good preorder deals on this one? i see gamestop offering 1st paid dlc for free but HMV are selling it for 45 so tempted to go with and then get the season pass if the online is a hit.

    unless anyone has seen better offers out there

    I really should be staying away from gamefaqs but reading that the online is a great laugh and hard mode in single player is too hard (go figure). Don't want to read any more as I'm sure there are spoilers in there.

    We have 16 members in the Boards crew now, will be good to see our stats on the home page when the game is out friday.

    Where did you guys preorder from (if you preordered)? If there is many people getting that bonus map version (gamestop) then i will get that too. I dont want to be the only one in the crew not being able to fight because i dont have the map.

    I just checked amazon they have a bonus called deadly force burst. Dont think its a map though. I dont think hmv has any pre order bonus ( i could be wrong ) but the price seems to be only 45 euros.

    Let me know and i will buy the same as you guys

    Sent you an invite there Wes.

    Jmx, I preordered mine from Gamesnash. No fancy bonues but I'm fairly certain the game will arrive Friday (or hopefully earlier :)) and my money is going to good people.

    There will be plenty of other online modes being released over the summer, but will suss out the online before committing to purchases especially that season pass.

    ive always been a hmv person for buying games, never understood why people pay €50+ in gamestop for the same game, and like previous people said, if the multiplayer is a hit i'll pick up the rockstar pass
