A friend of mine is a video game reviewer and he will get the game straight from the importer. So he will get it a few days before and has promised to contact me immediately when he has the game that I can go and test it.

Should get it on the morning of the 28th (or whenever the postman turns up. Sometimes he doesnt show up until the afternoon. Not like the good old days).

 

Game have never let me down with getting my games before the official day of release smile.gif

I work at blockbuster, anyone gets caught giving copies to customers before the street date they loose their job, the computer won't even let it happen so idk how hes going to sell it to you.

He said he was going to give me an SE copy and I would pay for it there and then! After that he will right my name of and scan the intem of the 29th. He said hopefully nobody will notcie one copy,

I went down to rent Dark Sector today and he was there and he said that there could be majory issue with sortages because with all major game retails. Since GAME owns Blockbuster and Gamestation this could be a problem for people who haven't preordered. He said this has got more preorders then anyother game in this store, including Halo 3! ANyway I am preparing for the 25/26th, but I cpould be a boarding scool still confused.gif It depends if I stay the weekend or go home which is up to my mom

i have a local small game retailer and as soon as he gets in the game in the back door it goes out the front door, so far ive had fifa 08 and splintercell double agent 4 days early but he doesnt recon he will get gta in any earlier than maybe 2 days or 1 day as rockstar are a bit tight, but he is gonna ring me as if i was a pre-order to lemmie know when he has it in so i can pop down there and grab it. i was gonna post a few youtube video's to answer any questions anybody has but i think people will riot, steal the game a week early and there will be many many video's early anyway.

hehehe, dude, don't ever connect your Xbox or PS3 to the net before the 29th then, or you'll get an instant ban and an invite to the court rampage_ani.gif

Well I've ordered mine from play.com. The game's coming out on a Tuesday, so to guarantee delivery on the release date, they'll have to send it out on Saturday 26th. In theory, I could get it Monday at the earliest. It's happened before!

I don't know it all seems dodgy if you ask me monocle.gif Somehow I can't see your mate jacking some copies of Grand Theft Auto IV successfully and get away with it. I think people hoping to get an early copy a week before the game is due out is setting themselves up for disappointment if you ask me. Hell I will be delighted if my Playstation 3 (Special Edition) of the game arrives on actual time on April 29th thats good enough for me smile.gif .

 

Also I don't know about regular shops (stores whatever) but I would think online retailers like Amazon, HMV, GAME etc will get copies of Grand Theft Auto IV at the begining of the week starting 21st April, the week before Grand Theft Auto IV releases as they need to send out the pre-orders enough time in advance in order for customers to receive their copy of the game on the release date.

Thats a man right there.

 

Thank you.

 

Its just immature the whole i have and you dont.

 

I mean, you can have it for the rest of your lives. You already waited since october, im sure 16 days shouldnt be a problem.

I even said i am making a different account so i don't get an unfair advantage, i probably won't even do any missions. I won't upload any videos because by that time I guarantee you some douche will fill youtube with spoilers

I have placed my order via the slowest method of delivery. This will give me the weekend to give it a go rather than the working week.
