You may want to order it again. I had to order it multiple times since the app kept crashing on me.

But it should show up at some point. The idea is that you'll be able to use the app to do the customization for all 3 characters when you have them unlocked.

AFAIK, my order went through. It was before the servers were being slammed like a porn star in Gangbang Sluts XVII: The Sluttening.

Better ask in the PS4 thread!

I did some searching, seems like the digital download version is fine, so I went ahead and grabbed it.

Damn, Best Buy was sold out of the PS3 version. Which controller is easier to use for this kind of game?

That would definitely be the Wii controller.

I've only played for one hour and no issues. But we will see.

Sadly I haven't played my Wii since the month I bought it.

I got it for the ps3 since the online is free but am using a 360 controller for it. I tried with the ps3 controller but can't go back to it since putting in 35 hours of GTA IV with the 360 controller

How are you using a 360 controller on the PS3?

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

So how does the Stock Market work? I'm assuming you buy low and you destroy a rival company causing the stock you have to skyrocket?

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

Just went to pick up the mail and there was no GTA V.

Once my PS4 and XO consoles ship in November, I'm probably going to cancel Prime. If I'm not going to get media on release date, the service is not worth it.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

Mine arrived properly today with Amazon Prime. Although i'd almost prefer it be a day late so I can complain and get credit. Heh.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

Everything I'm reading about those adapter pads is that they're not worth it. I'm fine using the PS3 controller.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

Ugh, my copy has been on a fucking UPS truck for the last 10 1/2 hours. I really HATE the last leg of delivery.

I don't care that it's release day, I just hate knowing how close my package is (and this happens with every package), and having to wait as the truck goes to EVERY OTHER FUCKING STOP before they decide that I'm worthy enough to deliver to.

But this is only the second time they haven't come by 6PM. Last time it happened they didn't show til 8:30.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V

Did someone say the driving controls were improved in this? I'm not seeing it so far. Failed the first racing mission 4 times in a row because the pavement might as well be Super Mario-style ice. Less than 2 hours in and I'm already super-irritated with AI drivers constantly pulling or even swerving straight into my path.

So I can use that $15 for another game that won't ship until release date?

I've already shot off another email. I pointed out that every video game pre-order states "Want to receive this the day it comes out? Select FREE Two-Day Shipping at checkout" and if they can't guarantee it on release date, then they should remove the verbage.

I wish I put this on my American Express or Discover. I probably could've gotten the transaction disputed.

the worst part is you have a huge Amazon warehouse in your state. I get stuff from there all the time. Usually next day from Amazon. There's no reason for them not to have it to you on release date with the warehouse nearby.

There's multiple warehouses in Nevada. Despite what Amazon mentions, Vegas has two. One in North Las Vegas which has been there for at least two-to-three years and they just opened a warehouse recently near McCarran. I know this because I work in the general area and I was also trying to get my unemployed stepdad a job there.

If I don't get the PS4 and XO on 11/14 and 11/22, there's going to be Jewish lightning happening up in there motherfuckin' warehouse.

I'd sacrifice a day or two for $15

I can almost guarantee that you will not get the PS4 on 11/14.
