    I was always gonna play this particular game to death because I was a big fan of San Andreas and I was excited to hear that the series was returning to Los Santos, but that gameplay video did go beyond my expectations. If it's as fun to play as it looks then it could be outstanding.

    I think I'll be like you wnolan1992, driving to Grove Street at the first opportunity to see what it looks like. It's great to have the entire map open right from the off, and as others have mentioned, I'll probably spend a lot of time just exploring the surroundings before doing any actual missions.

    A bad back is a good one too. You can stay at home and because of your back, you can't be expected to do anything but sit down with a lumbar support cushion ;)

    Great to see the men of the forum aren't afraid to stand up to their other halves... :P


    A fellow on the GTA V Forums made a little remix of the music in the gameplay trailer. He put two together, they both sound good but one is particularly great. It's from the character switch part of the video (and i have to admit the music from that part of the video became an instantly-loved track by me, I hope it gets a full release or becomes the main theme or such so we get to hear more of it and it doesn't just disappear into the abyss).

    Here's the video. It's extremely catchy. Should come with a 'you'll be humming this all day' warning:

    The Tesco a few miles from me is open 24 hours, what are the chances they'll already have them on the shelves if I walk in there at 11:59pm on the 16th ? :D

    High, It is what I did with GTA IV and its what Ill be doing again this year. Its surprisingly cheap too. I got GTA IV for €40 when it was 45-55 in most other places.

    Only just got to pre-order this too. Had intentions to get it with hmv, but then I found out that the special edition is only available in gamestop and apparently they are running very low on overall pre-order stock.

    Anyone wanting that particular version, dont hesitate and get your order in quick.
    the special edition is also available in smyths.

    What's the difference between the standard edition and special edition? Preordered the standard edition yesterday in GameStop, worth changing my order? Lazy question I know, thanks for any replies :)

    You're most likely looking at the Collector's Edition. The CE comes with a little bag and some extra DLC. Post a link to the one you're looking at?
