    Well that's embarrassing :o

    Sat 14 Sep 10:35 Belfast Package left depot

    The worst thing is it's gonna spend the weekend in the Nightline warehouse directly behind my house :(

    Haha no problem. As I said, I was the same earlier on. Don't see why it'd end up in a warehouse from when it leaves Dublin. :confused:

    Because they're absolutely enormous!

    You could get into the spirit of GTA and organize a heist on the warehouse.

    Kinda reminds me of Father Ted when Tom robs the post office.
    Father Ted: (as Tom comes out of the Post Office with money, to the sound of a robbery alarm and a gunshot) Ya haven't been up to your auld tricks again, have ya?
    Tom: No, Father. 'Tis my money. I just didn't want to fill out the forms.

    I know a PC release was always likely to be on the cards, but by keeping quiet about it or denying the plans; it pissed off a lot of PC gamers and likely alienated them.

    I'm genuinely surprised that it's going to be released on PS4 though. I thought they'd start afresh with a new series set in a new 'universe' on the next gen consoles.

    PC gamers getting pissed off? You must be mistaken sir! :pac:


    Insanely jealous of all you guys getting it today/tomorrow. But I suppose it's for the best given I have assignments to do.

    Shame though, I was hoping there'd be more of us on the thread on Monday building up to the release. Now half of ye will be playing it, which will diminish the hype somewhat. Sort of bad form by Amazon to ship so early, shipping on Friday for UK addresses is a bit mad and was always going to break street date.


    Re: the Xtravision and Gamestop guys, I think the Gamestop guy was fair enough, probably getting loads of calls asking the same thing and is just getting frustrating having to repeatedly say they're not breaking street date. The Xtravision guy on the other hand... :eek:

    I'm tempted to head out to the nearest Parcel Motel and offer anyone collecting the game €100 for it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 834 ✭✭✭Heart Break Kid


    I say a group of us hit a few parcel motel locations , raid them for copies of GTA5.

    Just got a text there! Going to run over and collect it now!

    Bounties placed on all the Amazon purchasers

    I'd say parcel motel locations would have some sort of silent alarm linked to the likes of Eircom phonewatch because the locks are all electronic so could be easily opened.

    So after you open the first one someone would be notified and you can't be sure you'd get the right box. Plus even if you were lucky to get a GTA game on the first box its 50/50 if its the right platform.

    I can't believe I have even thought about this in such detail :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,960 ✭✭✭DarkJager


    Can't believe some of ye will be playing this tonight, makes the wait for midnight on Monday even worse :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,346 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    I thought Saints Row 4 would tide me over until I get this but I need it now.

    I need it now!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,690 ✭✭✭✭Skylinehead


    I got a text off PM this morning saying I didnt have enough in my account to process the parcel. Now I do, and it still says no parcels :(

    Not a hope in hell. Most stores probably aren't even stocked up yet.

    Garda is only around the corner for it but any panic alarm I've been around still has a 15 -30 minute response time.

    There was an issue a while ago where a girl was going jump into the river. Called Garda, never showed up. Old man dragged her up. Someone went to the garda. They were told "she would've been grand, it's only a small drop and it's not that deep"
