Anyone from the UK preordered it from Play.com? I wanna know if there's a guarenteed delivery by the 29th if you ordered by a certain date or something? I know Amazon is doing that.

Looks amazing, even as pixelly as the video is and I can't tell if it's the sh*t video quality or not, but looks CHOPPY as hell.

It's the video. People have been recording either with webcams or some ****ty cameras and putting them up on the web. All of the reviews from magazines have said that the frame rate is butter until you get a ton of action on the screen (multiple explosions, etc.). So, I wouldn't worry too much about the frame rate you see in these videos.

I think it's a shame all these people have got it before the scheduled release, makes the 'big day' a little less big.
Meh, majority of us won't look at it its not like you're gonna be forced into getting the game spoiled. I know that since I paid fifty some dollars, I'm gonna get the full, unspoiled experience.

**** THAT! I AIN'T WATCHING THOSE. I'M REALLY NOT. AAAARGH.

Sorry for the caps as I'm trying to resist the urge to see GTA IV footage.

I managed to stay away from any major spoilers so far. Here's to hoping it stays that way till the 29th.

/leaves thread till April 29th. Later dudes. :D

Mate, you got a PC monitor or a TV that is capable of rendering 1080p? Then it's a no-brainer, get a PS3!

I'm blown away by the awesomness of it. Gran Turismo Prologue on my Dell 27" PC monitor @ 1920*1080 looks just like a PC game :eek:

Needs to be said that I'm a BIG race games fan and that I got an expensive as hell USB Logitech G25 racing wheel that only works on the PS3 (not the 360) and that GT5 Prologue is a PS3 exclusive. Not to mention, I also have an ATRAC Sony mp3 player that wouldn't work on the 360 and finally that I had a PS2 before and that I loved it. Oh and I hate Microsoft fascist policy aka everything you want to use on our 360 needs to be a Microsoft product since the normal format won't work.

So, yeah, get a PS3 if you fit the criteria. You won't be disappointed. Was definitely the best purchase I made this year.
