+BeLGaRaTh Subscriber¹ Posted April 21, 2008 Subscriber¹ Share Posted April 21, 2008 A shop here which will remain nameless has already promised people it early but will be charging ?75 - ?100 per copy depending on how well they know you. I hasten to add it's an independent and not a big retail store. It sickens me thought that they will charge that much for something, yes I know people will pay it, but I just feel it is wron:(:( FYI he says it wil be just for the normal version, not the limited edition.

Guyro Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 ya but if it is an independent store and not part of a retail chain, then they wont care that they wont be getting any big games in future, especially when they could preorder the games themselves to put on sale the next day Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/623986-official-grand-theft-auto-iv/page/11/#findComment-589347364 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted April 21, 2008 Veteran Share Posted April 21, 2008 They won't.http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News-137440.aspx http://www.shopto.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2988 "Take2 have sent a street date agreement to online retailers to sign which means they cannot ship GTA IV until Monday next week (April 28), this also includes an embargo on staff getting copies either paid for or free." They just need to package them earlier due to the demand, since you usually package them all the day they need to be sent out. Heh it aint stopping my mate from getting it early at his work :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/623986-official-grand-theft-auto-iv/page/11/#findComment-589347428 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guyro Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 DrunknMunky was it you who got Bioshock early from working at game? and so would stand a reasonable chance of getting this early, or was it someone else?

what Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Psy (owner of the site in my sig) just got back from a tour of NYC. He spoke to a Rockstar employee and found out that there won't be ANY DLC for the PS3 version, hidden packages are in the form of pigeons that you have to kill, and you can't kill Ricky Gervais. Now he's off to the Rockstar penthouse for a 12 hour GTA4 marathon with the rest of the fansite admins.
