    Thanks ;)

    American date system?

    e.g. 9/11 not being on the 9th of November

    Sorry man, I'm a little lost. I was wondering the year as I heard on another forum that it says 2012. Not 2013.

    I just checked there and it says 05.12.2012. Yes, 2012.

    Below that it says "Grand Theft Auto V is coming Spring 2013. Pre-order now and visit rockstargames.com/V for more details."

    I think the 05.12.2012 is the date the trailer was released on PSN.

    My bad - sorry for the panic, but could it be a hint?

    Rumours around that pre-order prices were temporarily put up on 1 or 2 sites at about 70 euro. Don't have the link for that, will find it when I get home.

    The price on Amazon is £39.99 http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0062KICQ6/ref=pe_267661_33396821_pe_epc_dp5

    New screen from some Hungarian magazine.

    Only really shows SWAT, and that a good few of the Vinewood sign letters will be climbable.

    Hopefully that'll be accurate.

    Had a weird dream the other night. I don't currently own a console (360 red-ringed on me) so plan to buy a new one when V comes out (looking at PS3 if 360 will have multiple discs).

    Anyway, In my dream, i woke up and it was 11.45pm and GTA V was getting a midnight release. I was panicked as I forgot about it and just as I woke up my brother rang me asking did i want to buy a second hand 360. I said no, I'll get a new one. So I rush down to XtraVision to get V at midnight and realise I don't have enough money for both the game and a new console.

    So I buy the game and ring my brother back repeatedly to ask if i could get the second hand 360 off him. Couldn't get through to him. So I get back home and go up into the attic and start mooching around. Pulled out an old SEGA Megadrive that was up there. Cleaned the dust off it and stuck on GTA V.

    Because I was playing it on the Megadrive (don't ask me how, but apparently V works on all consoles, past and present!), the graphics were crap. Everything was just a load of random pixels and polygons and I couldn't make out what I was supposed to be looking at, at all. Went online to ask about it and seen someone on here banging on about how brilliant and fun the jump over the Vinewood sign is, and how you should get a sports car and do it.

    So I went back to playing it, but couldn't find the Vinewood sign as the graphics were too bad. Ended up taking it out of the Megadrive and heading over to my brothers to play it on his 360.

    I woke up before I got to play it, but I remember the dream so vividly, like it really happened. Even when I woke up I was lying there just thinking to myself "What the fcuk was that all about?!". Really odd dream.


    I'm not sure why, but I thought I'd share my great dream experience. There's clearly very little happening inside my head. :(

    For some reason I keep thinking I'm getting it for Christmas. It's annoying as fcuk when I cop it :mad:

    We all know its gonna look awesome and do all the things gta does but i just hope they get it right with the fun factor
    Last gta i barely played it i found it boring dull and storyline uninteresting
    Maybe its just cos im in my twenties now and grew up on vice city and san andreas but i just hope the fun factor is back in this

    If you guys think this game will be a blockbuster - consider buying TTWO shares. They recently took a beating on news that the Kindergarden Killer is fan of GTA franchise - but Icahn and other hedge funds are apparently backing the stock. The release of new gaming platforms would propel interest in the shares of companies in the gaming sector (EA, ATVI etc).

    I knew we would get some today....

    A submersible?! brilliant! although wouldn't that mess up defining the maps boundaries?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,845 ✭✭✭py2006


    Also, looks like the dog is a buddy so perhaps can be used to attack victims on command? ;)

    and is that a chick flying the fighter jet?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,128 ✭✭✭✭aaronjumper


    A bloody shark! No more escaping the cops in the water I guess.
    That will probably double my hospital visits.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,248 ✭✭✭Plug


    My wish list came true, Subs and sharks. Bangin....!!!

    Going by the trailer that looks possible.

    As for the fighter jet pilot it seems to be just that, a fighter jet pilot.

    Dog, submarine and all that! :cool:

    Ah, sharks. Shooting down aircraft over the ocean just got more interesting.

    Also, it looks like there is snow in the picture with the dog. Out of place in SoCal perhaps, but an interesting addition all the same.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 386 ✭✭bitch please


    driving would be way more fun if there was snow but never mind that theres sharks in the game im gunna replicate jaws with it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,296 ✭✭✭EdenHazard

    You will when it is modded on PC.

    Looks like snow/frost to me, too.

    The 'leaked' vehicle list from MP3 also had snow-related vehicles mixed in amongst the other GTA vehicles, so it's plausible (and I expect it, to be honest. I'm fairly certain that snow-related stuff will be featured in Trailer 3).

    Yeah but when the PC modders get a hold of it you'll also be able to drive the shark down the road and fly it around like a helicopter :p

    Hmm, who drives a convertible on a snowy day?

    Snow would be cool though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,314 ✭✭✭sink


    Let's not forget there are mountain ranges so that's probably where the snow comes in.
