As far as i know it'll be released @ 12 midnight on the 28th going into the 29th!!so ya best bet if you've not reserved is to be around a 24hr supermarket around that time.
I can tell ya this the major stores won't release it till its time as the code for the game won't even register @ the checkout so its impossible for them to sell it and also the threat of a fine

) less there given permission to release early ofcourse

Makes sense.
I've never queued with gaming geeks but they can't be any different to trainer geeks !
The woman at Sainsburys seems to think it would be midday.
Much investigation tomorrow methinks.

Okay, that'll be Tescos then.
Seems odd that Sainsburys are gonna do it at midday rather than opening.
I better get me deer stalker on and do some investigating.

Tescos should drop it at midnight, anything to get one over on saisburys

Here's hoping. I'm gonna head down there later to see what the dealio is.
No sleep for me if I get a copy at midnight !

Apparently you can download it on the xBox, might be the same on PS3?
RE: PS 3's about to go on Pre order. -

I'm a bit dubious of that kind of thing.
Shelling out the same amount for a download as a hard copy, no thanks !
RE: PS 3's about to go on Pre order. -

Is it the same amount? Do you know how much GT Prologue was? Apparently you could buy that online too.
I assumed they would be cheaper as there is no tangible product.

They're a bit cheeky like that though.
Last time I saw a download copy it was pretty much the same price as the boxed version.

Just rung my local Blockbuster and all the copys they are getting have been pre-booked which is most odd as normally we dont have to bother. Im gonna go to Woolies i think as they dont do Pre-booking, so fingers crossed! I will be in tears if i dont get a copy!
RE: PS 3's about to go on Pre order. -

Ditto !

Our Woolworths had stopped pre-ordering last week

Thankfully my one doesnt do Pre-orders so im hoping i can waltz in there at 9.00am tomorrow and bag one or failing that snatch one of someone else coming out! Just getting into the spirit of GTA!
