I'm expecting it to just come out with the Wednesday update.
If it doesn't, I may die.
Why does it say disc only?
(edit: its probably the japanese version)
We are so lucky here in Europe, we got the retail game! And a year earlier than the US!

I'm sure nothing is going to change at midnight, i'll consider myself happy if i can start the download tomorrow in the afternoon...
Yes.
cuz it was only made for the PS3 originally when it came out and no one has the resources to port it.

It's only 22 or 23gb, right? An email I got said to have 50gb free.

You gotta have double that free for the installer, which deletes itself afterwards.

Lots of disk games intall part of the game to the hard drive, just delete that, not the saves.
Unplug your PS4 and plug in PS3, use DS4 via cable.

Does anyone know if it checks for save data at all? Know it won't but it'd be nice to be rewarded for finishing all the sidequests in 4

It does, and for every PS3 game too, including Kenzan and the remasters. Just having save files for 3, 4 and DS should be enough to get the rewards, and maybe they reworked them to include the other stuff as well.

Yes, cj_iwakura should be launching it very soon...though if I may ask, can there be some kind of notice to people who keep complaining/begging for a PS4 version? Unless RGG Studios had a justified reason to go back and make a new version of 5 ala Kiwami (plus localizing it), the PS3 release is the only one available and we're lucky we're even getting this one at all.
Having played the Japanese version here is my impression before launch:
If you're still on the fence, get it, you may find your self scratching your head at some the plot points and even make a drinking game at how many times the word for Dream gets dropped, but the game is well worth the price of admission (the discount is great!) and download size.
It's great and the Another Drama stuff can eat up your time, but they're pretty enjoyable as well...heck I was afraid of not liking the Haruka rhythm gameplay, turned out to be the opposite, it's very simple and fun.
I'm just glad to finally play it in English.

I don't know where the OT is but the game has been up in NZ and Aus for a while. Use search.
They STILL haven't applied the PS+ discount though, so you might want to wait for SCEE and/or Sega Europe to fix their stupid mistake.

They told in EU PS Blog Europe will get a 15% discount as well but just for PS+ users. No Pre-order available for EU.

Same. Because I'm starting to lose hype for this.
Still buying it, through my tears and anger
Well, this is as good a time as any to subscribe to Plus again I guess
It's up for download on PSN in NA right now.
Not sure if the game will actually start... but I have a free day off to take from work. Didn't take it tomorrow because I didn't expect it to be up before the evening..
I think I'll get that day off on Friday anyway, more uninterrupted time.
I'll finally be able to finish this game. Stopped back in the days on Chapter 4 or 5, whatever chapter you're with the new guy.

One hour to go, can't wait.

A sentence I never thought I'd ever see.
Yeah... my bad, edited just now about this.
Also, I read your impressions further up, pretty much lines up with what I would say.

It's been awhile since I've paid attention to store updates. It never really made sense why they were all on different days anyway.
