Agreed, sleeping and trying to forget about this game. I haven't enjoyed the gta series at all really. The first game was fun for a little while but then it just got stupid. So I commit crimes build up a police meter and then get busted. Rinse repeat.

Yeah. Sleeping. Crappy weekday release dates! Has anyone heard if LIVE took a dump or not? I haven't logged on yet.

I'll be at home doing homework and then picking it up tomorrow morning. The local shop I reserved it at isn't having a midnight opening, but they're selling the game for $54.99 + a $5 off coupon. I can wait 10 hours to save 10 bucks.

Im heading to an area that has a Futureshop, Best Buy, EB Games and 24 Hour Wallmart all in the same parking lot all of which are doing a midnight release.
Im just going to choose the place that has the shortest line. Did the same thing with the Halo 3 release and I was out the door at 12:15am with a copy.

I have a 6am start at work tomorrow, so no midnight launch for me.
I will, however, be going directly to Circuit City (not passing Go), to get my GTA4, and a $10 gift card that I'll immediately put towards Mario Kart.

Dude, seriously, you are definitely missing out... I'm such a Halo fanboy I never bothered with CoD4 and all I play is Halo 3... and even I'm picking up GTA4.

Does anyone know if Target is doing a midnight launch? I pre-ordered the game there for the system wrap at the beginning of the month, turns out I'd almost rather have the game 8-10 hours earlier than the system wrap.

Wal Mart in Gladstone.
It's less than 10 minutes from my house, and I just confirmed they're doing midnight.
Might get my friend to go with, and hopefully there's not a line.

Sleeping, since I have my last exam tomorrow at 9am. Picking GTA up after the exam.

I will be finishing the game. :) Joys of retailers screwing up with release dates!
Posted: Apr 28th 2008 7:14PM (Unverified) said
I'll be waiting online. I'll get to Gamestop around 11:45 and then once it's 12 the line will move fast. No point in waiting online for 2 hours when the line moves rather quickly and your out of their in 15-20 minutes once they start handing them out.
