I'm quite surpised that there's no thread here yet about GTA V, with all that hype. I'm really looking forward to the game, because I always liked them, finished GTA IV some time ago only, and I'm eager to see what the new one looks like.

From all the reviews I've seen yesterday, it must be THE game of this generation consoles, contentwise, visually and gameplaywise. The map is apparently bigger than those from GTA San Andreas, GTA IV and Red Dead Redemption combined, which tells a lot.

The game is also the second most expensive thing ever done in entertainment, Pirates of the Carribean 3 being the most expensive, with a budget of 300.000.000$, GTA V being at 266.000.000$. Wow!

I made a good deal on the game, I bought it for the 360, although I could download it for the PS3, but I would like to enjoy perhaps a bit the online part of the game, thus buying it. When I pre-ordered it, the price was 37.95£, when it was in dispatch yesterday, it was at 33.50£, and when I got the mail that it was shipped, yesterday evening at 19:20, I finally got it for 29.15£ (35€), quite good price. I can see now, that the 360 version is at 55.99£ at the moment, although Amazon Germany still has it in stock for 50€.

I also ordered the strategy guide, the limited hard cover edition, I guess I might use it a lot, as, like mentioned before, there's so much content, you might wanna peek from time to time. The guide has 448 pages.

So is anyone else interested, or do we have some of the GTA haters here?
