Does anybody know what Play.com would be like for their Pre-order delivery?

Highly thinking about cancelling it and going to the local

If I download it from psn onto this machine and in a few weeks get a new one, will I be able to download it again for free or would I have to pay again?

You'll be able to download for free once you use the same psn account. You might have deactivate the psn account on the old ps3 if you are using that account on another other ps3's

Thanks.

And just cause I'm too lazy to boot up the ps3 now and look, can anyone tell me the price on PSN? Thanks again.

€69.99 plus 75% off any other Rockstar game.

Always amazed as to how they are more expensive to download

Squidgy Black · 15-09-2013 12:35AM

10 euro extra and it's an 18gb file. I'd just wait the extra day and buy it in store on disc to be honest. Preload time is 3pm so it'll probably be near midnight by the time you download it :pac:

I'm still unsure as to whether I should cancel my preorder with Amazon seeing as they're out of stock. Hopefully they'll get some in Monday and I could get a copy to me by Wednesday.

Preload time is 3pm tomorrow. And he can't get the disc version as his PS3 disc drive has broken.

Oh right, thought I read somewhere that it had been pushed back to Monday.

As the others have said, you can download it to active systems (in this case, "active systems" mean a PS3 with your account details; you can deactivate the old one when your done with it).

Have a look at the data transfer utility, you'll be able to recover all the data from your old console and not have to worry about re-downloading such a large game.

Myself as well. Somewhat surprisingly, the Vita games are priced competitively. Sometimes cheaper than retail. Pity it couldn't like that for all platforms. They'd sell a lot more copies if they we're the same price if not slightly cheaper.

It was but it was brought forward again.

Any news for Gamestop Pre-orders? Haven't heard anything bad yet but I might be wrong :eek:.

What's going on?

ironictoaster · 15-09-2013 01:33AM

Lads, can anyone recommend me a USB flash drive for the mandatory install? I am limited on space with 20gb HDD.

Same as this. I've only got a 4gb xbox

Squidgy Black · 15-09-2013 01:54AM

Easons were selling 16gb Sandisk drives for 10 euro. That's of course if it's just for the add on thing and not the full game download ie the 18gb or so.

nkay1985 · 15-09-2013 02:04AM

Just got the text saying my game is at my local Parcel Motel. Think I'll pick it up and install it and then just play it tomorrow. It'd be a bad idea to start playing at 3am!

Ordered it early last week from Amazon.co.uk, selected free First Class delivery to UK addresses and used Parcel Motel's Belfast address. Shipped from Amazon Friday morning. Arrived at Parcel Motel's depot at 11:30. Loaded onto a delivery van in Dublin at 16:30. Arrived in Waterford around 02:00.

How can you leave it sitting over there in the cold?

ShaneU · 15-09-2013 02:41AM

Avoided ordering with Amazon because I was convinced they would have shipped on the Monday, feck it anyway

nkay1985 · 15-09-2013 02:43AM

Done.

Mod: Previous mod warning requesting people don't post pics of their case (or else we'll get swamped with them). Linking to them is okay though.

mossy95 · 15-09-2013 02:46AM

Is it actually possible for people to play the game now before the release date?

Haha I'd say I was out the door within 3 minutes of the text arriving. Parcel Motel is about 3 minutes from my house so I reckon I had it home and installing just over 10 minutes from receiving the text!

Install is just about to complete.

Where's that happening? (purely for the comedy gold of the comments that these kind of attempted sales receive!).
