I've just cancelled my Amazon pre-order and pre-ordered through Tesco instead. Use this code: TDX-PYXM to get £5.00 off any game over £35. They do have a pre-order price guarantee too though I'm not sure whether this is quite as good as Amazon's. However, if you have any Clubcard vouchers you can use Clubcard Boost to double their value.

I'm another one who is switching from 360 to PS4.

Also might be worth looking at trade in values on Amazon as they were offering a £10 bonus if you traded in £25 worth of games / accessories against certain new releases GTA included.

Rockstar have quietly put an update on the social club about character transfer: http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/tut...

Doesn't mention cars, clothes, apartments or Pegasus vehicles transferring, just money (and not cash card money from XBox->PS4). I'm wondering what happens when I have two characters, as well. From what I can infer, the combined progress of both characters is transferred to one new character.

I really hope cars do transfer, to rebuy and mod them all again would cost a fortune!
I will be watching the GTA forum closely to see whats going on before transferring my account.
It might be a case of having to sell everything first, that will be rather annoying to say the least

Selling everything first would be annoying (and take a while - I now seem not to be able to sell cars more than once every 48 minutes across both characters, even ones I've purchased) - I wouldn't have enough to re-buy all the cars I currently have anyway if I did that. Definitely going to watch what happens to others before I do the transfer!

For some reason I can't login to social club, any chance of copying the text wording here?

Rockstar Social Club said:
Character Transfer
You will need a Rockstar Games Social Club account linked to the console accounts used when previously playing GTA Online.

When entering GTA Online, you will be given the option to transfer your previous GTA Online character and progression data. Once you have chosen to transfer your previous character and progression data, the transferable in-game money, RP and Rank of all previous characters will be displayed. These are the characters that will be transferred to the PlayStation®4 or Xbox One. Once the transfer has completed, you will be prompted to choose a character and enter GTA Online.

You will still be able to play your existing characters on PlayStation®3 and/or Xbox 360, however any progress made with versions of the characters on those systems after a transfer will remain on those systems only. Any existing PlayStation®4 or Xbox One GTA Online character and progression data will be replaced by the previous character and progression data during the transfer, except for any existing in-game money, which will be combined with your transferred balance.

All earned in-game money will transfer. Purchased in-game money that has not yet been spent will only transfer within a console family (e.g. PlayStation®3 to PlayStation®4).

Yeah I must admit, If I cant transfer the cars over, the 500k in online credits for pre ordering is a slap in the face, as that would probably only cover buying and fully modding 2 of my 20 cars.

I don't see how they couldn't transfer the cars - too much time and effort has been put in to buy / customise them. Having said that, if they did get rid of them all, and as much as it would piss me off, it would make me re-think what is in my garages and I'd probably end up buying a completely different set of cars. I have too many in my garage that I never use, but just can't bring myself to sell.

Funmw2 (the creator of Field of Screams v3) has said on the GTA forums that cars etc will transfer. I am not sure how he would know but all of his other predictions have been correct, so I am hopeful.
