xxDaltonxx28 76 Report post Posted June 25, 2013 I just preordered the Official Grand Theft Auto V SG.. So I'll be picking it up along with my Collector's Edition Box in September.. I figure I've waited about five years for this game, so I might as well go all out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DuPz0r 5361 Report post Posted June 26, 2013 - Just watched a video of a blimp taking off, looks shit scary. It's like blowing a balloon up and not tying the end. Letting it go and watching it unpredictably flail around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlackSox9 448 Report post Posted June 26, 2013 You realize with internet nowadays you don't need to buy a strategy guide. Yeah you'd be better off making your own strategy guide. And it would probably end up being more helpful and accurate than any of the official guides... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rm80rams 62 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 I just upgraded my pre order at Gamestop to the Special Edition. The Collector's Edition didn't seem like it was worth more than $125, let alone $150. I might of considered it if it had like 10" statues of Michael, Trevor and Franklin, like many Collector's Editions have. And not to mention I got a nice poster of the game cover. Gonna put that shit on my wall. :3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ViceMan 1380 Report post Posted June 28, 2013 Quite a lot of places had unique preorder bonuses, remember with RDR, L.A. Noire and I believe Mafia II, certain retailers had specific items or missions you got which others didn't have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheBrownGuy 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2013 So I've placed my order for GTA 5, which I'm sure 98.7 % of you have done as well. My question is this. If for instance I purchase the base model GTA ($60.00) would I in turn have to purchase all the extra amenities found in the collectors edition VIA downloadable content or would It only be available to those who purchased the collectors edition.? Another question I have is if in fact it is only available to those who purchase the collectors edition wouldn't that effect online play.? This is just something I've just recently wondered on. anyone's take and/or opinions are appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted July 12, 2013 i'm pretty sure the downloadable stuff is only available for those that bought it... if they plan on selling them in the network stores afterwards, who knows... maybe someday down the line they will do that, but not right away... also yes, having that extra content will effect your experience online, but i am sure it will have no effect on anyone else...

See LA Noire for example. The real benefit of buying the Special/Collector's Editions is day one use of the DLC and the actual physical objects like the art book and the blueprint map. Whether or not that's something that appeals to you is just something you'll have to decide for yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's when he shoot's you to death and throws your corpse outta the car and gives it a test drive himself I was actually wondering if that would be possible though.. If someone has the DLC, can others who don't still drive that car, if the owner is killed for example ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
