Precisely what Chris said. Because I read an article which I posted a topic about here I'm no longer convinced that I'll get the game on release day and that it may arrive 2 days later. Plus my brother-in-law and my mate are already going to the GAME midnight release anyway, and I'll be in their area on the 16th so I may as well go with them and get it.

I definitely have to agree Chris...bastards got such a lucky chance to win that beast!

1/8 million chance of winning, but meh.

Me, my mate and brother-in-law cancelled our pre-orders. We're all going to our local GAME store about 2 hours before midnight to be the first ones to get the game!

I've cancelled my preorder with GAME, I'm gunna get it from store at midnight instead.

I hope so. I suppose. Except I probably won't be in for the parcel when it arrives lol

Huge frickin' SIGH!

I wonder if some of the old characters will be mentioned from time to time in radio or something like Tommy Vercetti, Claude and Joey was in SA..

I wonder how vehicle damage graphics/collisions will look in GTAV compared to GTA IV... This is one of the many things I can't wait to see. It was my understanding that R* was originally going to make the "next GTA" (this one) more like San Andreas as far as the graphics as well, but it looks like they have turned it around to make it a little more of a realistic feeling.

Why did you register on TGTAP just to advertise your site? If that's all you're here to do, then go elsewhere.

Except it is in pretty much every other country in the world. I was shocked when I found out Americans have to pay taxes on winnings made in contests and such, not only that but even if you win a lottery you still have to pay HUGE taxes on it, huge like almost 50%. In the UK and I believe most other countries, the prize they state is the prize you win, it's not tax-deductible, you get 100% of it. Of course with a road going car there ARE some necessary taxes which will differ by country, but they are simply running costs and you'd be paying them regardless of how you obtained the car, unless you stole it. Yeah I'm worried about the fate of that car, I can just see the headlines now. Of course GTA will "ironically" get blamed for teaching people to steal cars (because it's as simple as pushing a button on your controller in real life???) and so it is fitting that a car from GTA would be stolen. That said, it is a fucking awesome prize and whoever wins it is damn lucky, just hope they live in a safe area otherwise they might be kinda fucked. I'd also be tempted to sell I think since like you said it could solve a lot of problems, especially if you or your family isn't so well off, plus the running costs of that thing will be sky high. Would be sad to do it though, it's such a unique car, I'd wanna keep it forever really, might even be scared to go out for drives in it, not wanting to damage or even scratch it. I'd have to agree. Having such a unique vehicle and driving it around with some drivers around would be highly risky, and I'd definitely be scared of doing any form of damage or scratch to such car.

That looks fucking hawt!

The GPU will share memory as well as keep memory for itself. Sometimes it shares it with your RAM. Not sure exactly if your laptop will run the game smoothly. http://www.thegtaplace.com/gta4/system-requirements/

So abusive. Should call the RSPC-fucking-A. (just kidding) Sherman, so pro sarcasm.

Of course I remember pacman and the standup coin ops in arcades. What I'm saying though is, Even 18, 19 and 20+ remember what Pokemon is, and many of them I wouldn't be so surprised still watch it. Personally, I don't watch it, haven't watched it since back in the day and like 8 years ago.

I disagree. Many people may actually remember back in those days what Pokemon is/was. Doesn't necessarily mean they are too young to play GTA, though if they are under 18 then obviously they are too young to be playing such games.

First obvious questions is can your laptop even run GTA IV? What are the specs of your laptop hardware/software? Have you installed Games for Windows LIVE?

Besides, what on earth does Pokemon have to do with GTA V? There's absolutely no evidence to support any "Pokemon DLC"...and if I'm wrong, then prove it.

You know!

I got stuck trying to do this one, unfortunately almost killed the car...

Spartan has the idea here! The PC version won't be released at all soon, since I don't think it's even being developed yet.

Can't wait to play GTA Online...but tbh I think I'm going to do the story first.

I agree. A huge "car pileup" on the tracks and making a head-on collision was quite fun. I hope to see this in GTAV.

Was researching today and I actually am planning to learn similar languages. Python for starters and Java later, then C++ and C (Is this the same as Objective C? I dunno..) I'm getting pretty interested, though. Do you have any books or online resources that you'd recommend? C++ isn't the same as Objective C. Objective C is more "powerful" than C++ even though it's older, and has a strict superset of C/C++.

Now the Hydra I definitely can't wait to get my hands on again!
