    If he stole the pic from here, he is also reading this thread.
    Funny thing is that he wont know the genuine bids from the time wasting bids.... good luck with that :pac:

    Yeah, good shout actually. Maybe we could have one for pre-release (this one), one for general gameplay (where we can discuss **** we do in free roam during the week without being spoiled by people who are further in than us), and the current spoiler one for story stuff (like which character you start off as, first mission, etc)?

    Yeah that sounds perfect.

    One thread for those who don't have it so hype and excitement about getting it etc.

    One for those who have it but that doesn't mention any story items, just general gameplay.

    The spoiler thread or a new one which focuses on the story. I will avoid this until it's completed!

    Think it's time to start a GTA V Gameplay thread for those that got it early, So we won't get spoilers in here?

    Anyone got a link to the Adverts link for the GTA V ad?

    Yep, me too. Mine is Topaz Dunmore Road in Waterford.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,061 ✭✭✭PickledLime


    To anyone who has the PS3 version - what's the disc drive like playing this?

    Mine makes so much noise seeking daya on the disc (when it comes to R* titles) that I ditched LA Noire and ditched RDR, only to buy a 360 to play it!

    I'd prefer to get this on PS3, but can't abide the sound of the disc drive on mine.

    Do people want me to discuss the driving aspect or leave it for ye to figure out for yourselves. TBH i dont wanna go near the spoiler thread because id imagine there are discussions about missions and i still have alot to discover.

    So id rather avoid it.

    DRIVING mechanics: (i said id spoiler it in case people didnt wanna read it, mods, delete if you want)
    Driving is a lot more dynamic. Its a bit twitchy at first but once you get used to it it is much much better as you can do more with the car. Cars certainly tend to understeer less than they did in GTA IV. Steering is a little more sensitive but again, you will get used to it. There is also a setting to change the camera view from high to low for those of you who had issues with not seeing ahead.

     [USER 6] [USER 6] asked a question 14/09/2013 6:57 pm (58 minutes ago):
    I'm not sure if it's illegal to sell before release daye, considering Amazon have already shipped the item!
    
    Aside from that, this ad is either a joke or a scam. The picture was lifted from another Boards.ie user.

    I wont get a chance to play it until late Tuesday night, so it'll really be the weekend before I get a proper go.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,613 ✭✭✭tony1980


    Gutted I didn't order through Amazon last week, was tempted to but thought it would probably be Wednesday by the time I would get it! Pity as I have plenty of time this weekend to play it and all, working all next week, so it will be hard to put in a good few hours each night but still excited anyway. Delighted for the lads who did chance it though, enjoy lads, ye lu**y Fuc**rs!!
