Cannot wait.
Right?

I've got graduation Friday, so after that I'll be ready. :)

I am going to try to make my on sub-lore.

Also, why does everything in the game look like paper mache to the car that you drive when you crash into it?

I'm not particularly impressed with the driving or cars for that matter. Looks alright, but definitely not what I'm buying the game for.

Also, GMG gave me a voucher to get 25% off a preorder of Watch Dogs.

Sooooo, I guess I'll be breaking my own rule.

ill buy the 25% off coupon for 40 bucks

Smart man.

Can't, it's linked to my account.

Sorry for not holding your hand.
I found it in three seconds, just you're really really bad at giving information.

Also I'm rather irritated that all the leaked footage / early reviewing I can find is just videos of trying to blow stuff up and killing random civilians.
Seriously does anyone in these positions even know what game this is.

No, doesn't seem that way. Plus it's PS4 footage, which makes the guy look handicapped when he's walking around and running into stuff with the controller.

Of the little leaked footage I saw all it seemed to be was him just chasing some guy, actually waiting by a stop light for like 45 seconds waiting for a car that he could have just as easily stopped on a loving bridge. He actually made me bored while watching a game that I've wanted to play for two years.

You're making the assumption there's much else to do.

I know you can hack random civilians phones and get these "moral choices" where you can take all their money or not (not sure if that's been in a trailer), but otherwise most of the gameplay I've seen is related to driving, running, shooting, exploding, doing the typically poor stealth and occasionally hacking.

That said, it was an early prototype, so they could be hiding some revolutionary gameplay I've never seen before.

Hacking is the whole reason to get the game... In the leaks the guy barely uses hacks, pretty much showing us a generic GTA clone.

It's the hacking that's going to make the game.

maybe cuz the gimmick gets old after 2 or 3 times, and has no practical use outside of missions. i can guarantee you that they try to shove hacking down your throat when you're in a mission so it seems important. i can imagine the "press x to hack!!!!!!!" gets old pretty fast. it's pretty gta but with 'hacking'

im watching a stream of it now and it seems really lame. the graphics are basically the exact same as gta4. super long loading screens all over the place, this is honestly hilariously terrible. i hope it's just because it's running on a stuffty console.

Loading screens? I haven't seen one, I assume going into missions?

Regardless, $45 on pc ain't bad, so even with the anti-hype going on after people are seeing the livestreams I'll still get it simply because I've been interested in it for two years.

THe only reasy its 45 is because they took out two hours of game play, turned it into DLC and up'd the price so the whole game is probably like 70 bucks

It's an open world game. You can't really take two hours of gameplay out of it for me.

GTA IV, the stuffty port that it is, is still fun to just drive around and shoot up stuff in.
