Back on topic, HMV have already posted this bitch, by special delivery. I'm thinking I'm going to get it before the 29th.

You lucky fuck. I'm worried now because Amazon haven't even listed mine as 'packing/ ready to be shipped' or whatever it is. Those motherfuckers.

Mine's not dispatched yet either. It's got a predicted dispatch date of the 28th, so presumably it'll arrive on the 29th.

If it comes tomorrow that would basically mean you were cheating by playing it. You legally have to wait until Tuesday or something or Bill Gates will send you a cross e-mail.

I've just been to the store here and reserved my copy - get it at around 9.30 am tomorrow, then after tuesday I have 6 days off to enjoy it. Darryn, you can pre-order at the free record shop on the langeleidsestraat and probably any other branch, and they are no longer doing the silly pre-order thing where you pay 10 euros - now its just they scribble down your name and number and tell you to pick it up tomorrow or loose it.
Damn I am pumped and psyched - this was the game I bought the PS3 for. I even have my pants ready and shall despatch my flatmate away from the house for the week - Sod looking for a new job, I'm off bitch slapping and Twocing for 6 days solid!

No I am still having to "attend", though I am making a point of just doing basic incident management - helping my girls out, as they really seem to appreciate me.
All project work I have just dropped - I'm half messing about with silly things, the other half job hunting and dreaming of GTA IV
Judging by the reaction in the shop, if you are going to wing it, wing it very early - seems a lot of people have been reserving copies at the free record shop - I'd play it safe and do the same

I noticed the critics score on Eurogamer was 10, whilst the user score was 5.5. I thought this odd then noticed it was for the PS3. so assumed a lot of younger XBOX and PS3 users were using this rating thing for a bitch fight.
Only fault so far for the PS3 is the update time prior to getting it on (yep its GTV prologue all over again...)

It was 64.99 for both PS3 and Xbox (my colleague came with to buy a copy)
We were walking over and I saw one guy actually jump for joy waving his copy - bless
Been over at GTA Forums reading what I can from people who have got it - one guys hates it because the driving sucks (controls are different, and you can't turn corners at 90 miles an hour before). Everyone else seems to love it - the driving takes a little getting used to, but some people are saying when you do have it nailed its a joy to drive.
Did you know you even have a TV station in this one? And loads of music stations, including a Russian language one.
I am unable to concentrate on anything today, and still another 7 hours before I can head off and play

Well, 5 shops later and I can officially report that its sold out pretty much right through Amsterdam, though I did hear that the guy who came into Toys R Us 5 minutes before me and bought all the copies they had will be selling them on Queens Day (which is tomorrow) for 85 Euros a copy - Nice !
200 Euros a copy on the Dutch version of Ebay too.

When I track the package, Post Office special delivery site site still says
"come back later - Special Delivery™ 9am items are first tracked when they reached our mail centre. This may be late in the evening on the day the item was sent.
Information on your item is not yet available online."
Unlikely, considering it was supposedly sent 5 days ago.
