Grabbed my copy, traded in a few old games and didn't have to pay anything. I even got $10 credit back
At EB games they have a deal trade in 2 games with $15 value or more and get $60 credit towards a new release
I'm happy I have a job where I can go when I finish, started early and rushing to be out of here by 2

I'm with you on this too. I really don't like the "do whatever you want" games like Skyrim but I do find that I don't have that problem with GTA games. I do enjoy driving around and trying to pick up different things but I my primary focus is on the story. When that story is done, however, that's when I put the game away. I don't have too much incentive to stick around.

I was more drawn into the story of Red Dead Redemption in that I played it to the very end, something I could never do with a GTA game. Maybe hunting animals and wild west shootouts are more fun for me than stealing cars and gang/mob shootouts as I even managed to finish most of the side quests. RDR was a brilliant game and I'm hoping that this new GTA has a more compelling story like RDR.

Hmmm...I never really read anything about GTA V until some of the reviews today. My biggest problem with GTA IV was that I just wasn't drawn to the character and as with most GTA games it got monotonous. I'm extremely happy to see that you can switch between a few characters so that if one story arc is getting old you can go to another. may have to pick it up on the way home tonight.

Is this game going to sell out at the retailers? I'm wondering if I should buy on my way home today or run out at lunch...

With pre order at EB you get the blimp to mess around with.

Lady from the post office brought it to my house today. Got the atomic blimp download, nice map to work with. The only thing that could top my excitement is Red Dead Redemption 2, make it happen Rockstar!

This game is totally unrealistic...If you flirt with the stripper enough, she'll invite you back to her place.

Can this game be any more flawless? Is there anything you can't do?
So many of the missions are unique and really neat.

####. I don't have extra money to throw away but screw it. After reading all of the unbelievable reviews from everyone, I have no choice.

Did you spend it all on some sort of vacation or something?

Running and punching people in the head is way too satisfying

Loooong install, but I've been enjoying it so far, 3 missions in and a lot of messing around. Already jumped off the high skyscraper crane to see if I could get a trophy for my suicide
And my stripper denied my request
