preorder GTAIV, a question


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

 

Decided it was time to preorder GTAIV, so I went to my local Gamestation (its a UK chain retail store for video games, duh)

 

I ordered the standard on PS3, and the Special Edition for Xbox 360, however I was told they won't stock special, only the websites are, perhaps due to the size of the package, apparently none on them are gonna be doing it, at least Gamestaion.

 

Anyone else have this, because I'm thinking i'll need to buy online at this rate.

Whats so special about the special addition? it seems like money down the drain to me.

That may be your opinion, and your opinion isn't wrong but a lot of us like the special edition, what it offers and since we love GTAIV.

 

I didn't go with any store and decided to pre-order with Amazon.co.uk

I agree with that and I rarely buy Limited/Special Edition much. But I will be getting the Playstation 3 (Special Edition).

 

I also pre-ordered with Amazon.co.uk but why the hell do they still have 25th April as the official release date confused.gif talk about taking ages to update their website.

 

I find it odd that they will not be selling the Special Editions in the shop themselves. What would the size be to do with it? I mean they stock consoles which are large. What the person said in Gamestation doesn't really make much sense to me. confused.gif

Well I pre-ordered the special edition on PS3 from Infinity Games, and they never said anything like that.

 

I'm assuming it's going to come in a box of some sort.

This is gonna be my first real special edition purchase (well except for the Gears of War one, but the price was good for it when I bought it)

 

And yeah, weird the way Amazon haven't updated the release date, I was a bit suspicious at first but just went with it anyway.

 

EDIT: Dunno why the stores wouldn't stock it. Probably just the size of the bag and their laziness.
