Ugh. Not a fan of playing games from disc, especially lengthy ones. Also, what is disc 1 if disc 2 is the "play disc"?

I don't think it's iOs-only, I just think the Droid app is running a little behind. One of them had to launch before the other.

For some reason it won't let me link my social club. I don't know if the app isn't working right now or what. It keeps saying "Failed to get linked account info, please try again later."

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

Amazon just shipped my copy ...

... for guaranteed delivery for Thursday.

I love paying for Prime when it's doing absolutely nothing for me. Amazon gave me a $15 credit for not shipping Kingdom Hearts until after the release date (despite having it on pre-order since the beginning of the year). I just shot Amazon an email, let's see what they'll do for this fuck up.

Mine is doing that now, too. I was able to do the license plate and the Life Invader but Chop has me getting the same error as you.

Probably just slammed with people using it.

Disc 1 installs a bunch of the assets. Playing the "play disc" from the disc drive allows the Xbox to pull info from both sources instead of just one. I think Rockstar probably could have organized the files in a better way for 360 installs, but whatever.

I've had it tell me that before, and still arrive on time.

Don't be surprised if it shows up tomorrow.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

i honestly wasn't gonna pick this up tomorrow, but i feel like being immersed in a game again. something i couldn't do recently with Halo 4 and Tomb Raider. though, i don't deny they are incredible games, i just didn't stick with them.

i want to be immersed again. i want that feeling i had with Red Dead Redemption. i want to game again.

this game, i believe, will do it...

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

I loved Tomb Raider but was disappointed by Bioshock Infinite and Last of Us. Hopefully this will be good.

anyone have any experience picking up games @ Target? do they always have regular copies throughout the day or are they all pre-orders or something?

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

I think regular copies will be easy to come by even without pre order.

I think Special editions/collector editions will be the challenges

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

I think long gone are the days where finding a game like this on launch day would be difficult.

Short of that one of them is gonna have their stuff together before the other, even if the content provider is delivering their apps simultaneously.

One article said that the problem didn't occur if the play disc was installed to a USB stick rather than the HD.

You'd think. When Mass Effect 3 came out and UPS decided to lie to me about my delivery I went on a mission to buy it locally and it was sold out everywhere I went.
