Heard that there are some stores in Cologne selling it. Not worth the 200km for me though haha
Hoping it's available tomorrow morning in Luxembourg!

This is how insane things are getting for me. I dreamt that I woke up and read the new posts in this thread... and there were only ~40 some new posts! "What in the bloody hell GAF, NOTHING IS SUPPOSED TO STOP THIS HYPE TRAIN, INCLUDING AND ESPECIALLY MIDNIGHT HOURS TYPICALLY RESERVED FOR SLEEPING"
Imagine my relief when I ACTUALLY woke up to find there were over 400 new replies. Good job guys, I knew you wouldn't let me down
The French?
Screw those guys
<3 France
The French, Spanish and the rest of the people in Europe who snagged an early copy.
Oh damn, am at 8% now and thought it was slow. Good thing we got it early!

Just got my game. The evening is saved
that was confirmed as mistake by Sony twitter and Rockstar twitter as well.
No preload for US
What I don't get is why I was charged upfront 60 bucks for GTA V, while all other seem to only have a preorder on US PSN =/
I'd like to know how they are sorting out the "who gets what and when". I preordered on the 9th of July and am pretty sure that I'll get it by Wednesday only.
Welcome to GAF am fairly new too but been a reader for a long time anyway welcome and have fun discussions
Will do! What I like about GAF is the prevalence of higher level discussions.
Well, I'm not Irish, but living in the Emerald Isle for the craic.
Tip: Call of Juarez Gunslinger for 7 on XBL is a good and quick way to stop thinking about GTA V!

This is what I imagine a midnight launch is like. Dozens of people talking to themselves, some just shooting the shit, and about 70 different conversations happening at the same time
hahaha

Exactly, I was gonna get it in a store on Tuesday but found out the EU got to pre-load today so I thought I'd go for the added convenience.
I hope it's done by tomorrow night but I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't lol
Don't feel comfortable leaving my PS3 on for almost a day though :/

Midnight launches are so much fucking fun I think
With all of this delivery kerfuffle, I was sure you were talking about your order.
The sentence makes much more sense now.

Doesn't it install automatically? Have you looked into your theme setting?

I hope Sony fucked up and forgot to lock it until the 17th...
I wish yurop cared even less and sent me my copy already.

Apparently a lot of people who ordered from Amazon UK already have the game
Think that's in Northern Ireland, their distribution centre fucked up. I wouldn't be able to handle it if everyone I knew was playing it already
What? Those lucky bastards :'(Apparently a lot of people who ordered from Amazon UK already have the game
Edit: Oh, so was that just Northern Ireland only? Still, those lucky bastards :'(

Lol! I was hoping the US store would just allow the US to preload to ease server issues on release day.
I don't care about playing it as much as downloading at the moment.

Okay so I pre-purchased GTA V on the US PSN store and my question is will I get the pre-order DLC blimp when the game unlocks?
The only thing that worries me right now is that my old launch 60gig retro compat PS3 might not hold long enough.... Especially the bluray drive. I really wish you could install the whole game to the HDD instead of juste the 8gigs.
I also should have ordered a spare bluray drive just in case. Now it's too late to get it by tuesday.

If it's same as EU you should be able to download blimp from your download list already
Yeah been reading about it on different forum. Think it's not just NI. Maybe it depends on where you live though.
I love the GAF spoiler policy btw, on that other forum they are just posting streams and gifs all over the place!
Yep, but I believe I saw someone from Cork (or somewhere in Ireland) who preordered only recently and had already got it - not sure if it was here tho.
I hate GTA for taking my hype to insane levels every single release.
It should be in your download list with the game.

I don't see it on there, only the pre-order theme. SCEA better not screw this up.

ToysRus apparently is giving out a free Rockstar game of $19.99 value or less, plus a $10GC with a GTA V purchase.
Walmart misprinted the GTA V ad saying the Special Edition is priced at $59.99. You could potentially get it for that price if you price match to the right people.
Can't be done. Well, it can be done, but they need to process the request to determine if you're "worthy" of getting your money back for a product you don't have yet. It takes about 7-10 business days. Unless you're willing to risk buying GTA V twice, you're stuck with that preorder.
Why the fuck is the EU PSN so much better? They get preloads, preorders download automatically, and they can return preorders right from the PS3. What gives?

I ordered a game before from Amazon (UK). On release day, the post didn't come until around midday - and the game didn't come through. Then, around 5pm, my neighbour popped round with it - the postman put it through the wrong door (maybe an accident, maybe for a laugh because I was watching through the window).
Anyway, i'm not ordering online anymore, certainly not for big games like this. Although it could come early, that never seems to happen for me - and i'd much rather be in control of getting it very early on release day.
I'm thinking probably ASDA around 7am or something. No chance of them selling out on release day morning - right?

In the download list it says "purchased at 17/9", and the DL file is 18GB instead of 17.2. Could it be? :O

Do you not get a second chance if you don;'t do them when they're first open? Also, do they pop up like the ones in GTAIV (have to run into them) or are they on the map for you to find ala RDR?
Answers in spoiler tags pls

I download this part already. It was like 75k or so file I think.
