Sorry to be a bit of a numpty, but can you guys some up the multiplayer for me please?

I've never managed to get into the GTA series and so have largely avoided them. I think the closet I came to it is that 360 jumpy jumpy futuristic kill the bad gangmen game. (I can't even remember what it's called!)

I don't doubt it's going to be an awesome game, I'm just not sure it's going to convert me...

Thanks! smile

Tuan
Car chases, gun fights, helicopters & police chases.

Very, very cool. cool

Someone's already put a gameplay vid up on youtube, I got as far as to where the intro started and then stopped it, don't want to ruin anything.

I have a feeling that the free mode described above will be right up your (and my) avenue Tuan. I wasn't going to bother with GTA but after reading up about some of the online multiplayers bits I placed my order today.

I've really missed being called a gay . When are you getting back online? smile

ooh, I think ive found it...
Obviously this is a spoiler biggrin
linky
edit... this link is better, same thing, but has a 1 minute driving scene afterwards.

To be honest, the quality is so poor, its hardly a spoiler.
I'd guess better gameplay videos will be appearing on youtube shortly as of... now-ish onwards.

The quality/sound is so bad, I couldnt watch the whole thing. I kinda skipped through it...

Me and my son used to play co-op system link too.

Good game in multiplayer, shame about the occasional lag spikes (even on a home network!)

I skipped past the intro bit and watched the driving section, car looked like the suspension was made of jelly, but it was an old Yank-Tank so that would make sense, hitting the handbrake really does send it wildly out of control, going to be fun to master the cars this time around as they look a lot more twitchy and prone to over/understeer if you try to take a corner at speed.

I'm not going to watch it, no point wasting it for the sake of a low quality youtube video

Anything more than a poster of the luscious lips girl might be deemed obsessive or questionable behaviour.
Although I suspect your admission is safe 33 pages into the thread.
Besides, I'll bet a few twonks will be naming their new baby Niko this month!
And if you can read this, you probably dont play enough video games anyway...

Starting to feel like a bit of an idiot for now pre-ordering! None of my local 24 hour supermarkets have enough copies to fill their orders, let alone put any on the shelves and even blockbuster thinks they'll have any 'spare' copies. I'm going to have to come up with a plan for either late on Monday night or very early Tuesday morning... All ideas greatfully received!

Do supermarkets actually wait until 12 until putting them out or will they go up sooner/later?

I'm going to try Tesco's.
