preview tommorow?

When they say it will be released on September 7th, what time & what time zone? Because in Europe it's already the 7th, but it's still September 6th in the US. In the Eastern Time Zone for the US, we've got only half an hour until September 7th.

well as seeing your in the u.s. probably tomorrow morning. not midnight i mean like 10.

you can probably find it at certain stores. but if you don't want to buy it, it will end up online somewhere.

i don't see the big deal of posting scans. i mean i understand if r* doesn't want the info out.

but if xbox world 360 is supposed to be the mag with the first official preview (i know it's technically not the first)

then if r* allows them to put it in the mag and allows the information to be put out there, i don't see why it can't be shared.

the mag being copyrighted is my only guess.

Each magazine wants to sell ads on the idea they have the exclusive preview in their country. Sales are undermined if you don't buy the US magazine because you already saw the screenshots in the Spanish magazine.

 

If they wanted the material online worldwide they would put it on the web. Choosing to put it in a magazine means they don't want it online.

It's a UK-based magazine I believe (although apparently it's sold elsewhere) so stores should be stocking it today, or tomorrow depending on when they do the stacking.

I doubt it's a big deal to Rockstar, but it's certainly a big deal to the magazines because it's their work based on the previews they were personally given. We get requests all the time to take stuff down from magazine editors. Some of them threaten us with legal stuff and are real assholes about it, but most of them are okay and appreciate that we can't babysit the forum 24 hours a day, moderating every post.
