Didn't see a thread yet so thought I would start one.

Preload now complete after buying from Green Man gaming for less than £30 so if I get 30 hours out of it I will be happy! Not played it on any console so quite looking forward to it. Anyone else got it ordered or plan to pick it up?

Just watched it full screen at 1080x60, looks brilliant I have to admit. Don't think it's my cup of tea though.

Do you have a link to it for £30 on GMG? Could only find it for $60 for NA version which is ~£40... I am trying to do it on my mobile though so may have missed something obvious

I did consider giving this a go but I see GTA as a 'sofa and console' game rather than 'sat at a desk for hours' game.

Really want to buy this on pc after being rather disappointed with the current gen version of gta, but I know my pc would really struggle with it, I could upgrade but can't really justify it at the moment

I'm waiting as well.

I actually bought a PS3 when it come out on that so i could play it, but don't get along with console controllers (the last one i played on was the 8 bit NES as a child) so the PS3 has turned into a spare blueray player biggrin

I ordered my pc verion of game in december, which back then had a delivery date of 27/01/2015, which has obviously changed a few times again.

Can't wait to play it on the pc, i hope the car handeling is good so i can try and hook up my G27 steeringwheel thingy.

You need to add your address details to your account first.

Still works, I just tried it:



(real total shows on next screen)

Gotta make sure your address details are set up in your profile, I had the exact same problem.

Early reports look really good.Even if your PC is of a lower spec, by making adjustments, simply getting more than the 29 (or less!!) fps that the "next gen" consoles offer, transforms the gameplay.However, if you are way up there in the power stakes, apparently you will be left with a wide open jaw as it trounces the console versions in every single department.

New features and enhancements also look good and I would imagine the modding community are going to have a field day with this!

Mine is downloaded and waiting to unlock & I'm pretty sure I will dedicate more than the five minutes of time I did to the laughable xbox one version.Bye bye 20+ year old frame rates byebye

I'm stuck on the fence about buying it again. From what I've heard, modding wont be easy and that would be my primary justification for getting it again. Also I don't believe there is cross platform play and all my friends play it on the PS4. Although the ability to play it again in 4K at 60fps...
