    I think the same thing happened with the last 2 GTAs, I could be wrong though. But they are trying to set everyone up for failure.

    I've had this on preorder for a while now and I'm super pumped to get this game. Sounds like it's going to be absolutely amazing from every review I've read. Also, I'm blaming this for me not getting sleep tonight, because it's inevitable that I'll be up all freaking night playing this.

    PlayStation: Official Mag (US), Game Informer, Playstation: Official Magazine (UK), PSW Magazine (UK), VideoGamer, GameSpy, 1Up, IGN, and GameSpot have all given it perfect reviews. Holy hell. It's the first game I've ever seen given a 10 on GameSpot.

    There's a Circuit City right across the street from where I work.

    I went over there at 10. The parking lot was empty.

    They opened the door just as I was walking up to it.

    I went to the counter, purchased my game and they gave me a $10 gift card as well.

    Why in the world would anyone worry about the availability of this game? Because some scumbag at Gamestop got in your face and scared you?

    You could just buy the game and return your sealed copy with the receipt when you get it. Or just return it to Amazon.

    You could probably have predicted how sad future Chingy would be waiting for Amazon to ship his game while everyone else was already playing it. [​IMG]

    I've put a few hours into this game and so far, it's amazing. Coolest thing that I've seen so far:

    Me and my friend had a piece of crap van that we felt like destroying. So, we beat the crap out of it to the point where it lit on fire. We got out and waited for it to blow. It did, and that prompted a huge massacre. The van blowing caused another car to blow. That car actually caused a cop car to blow up next. The cop was on fire and proceeded to try and run but ended up dying at my feet, which was pretty funny. A few more cars blew up and then the funniest thing happened. This dudes car was on fire and he was just kinda sitting in it. He went to get out right as the car blew up. He was launched probably 100 feet or so, smacked into a lamp post, and landed next to me. Probably the funniest thing I've seen so far. Crazy thing was how real it looked to. His body was just flailing in the air. The physics in this game are just incredible.

    Got it, freakin' awesome. Still feels a bit reprocessed though what with the missions and crap. However, they are funner to play with the new control scheme and mechanics. Plus, all the new stuff to do makes it a better all-around experience thus far. I'm just taking a break.

    It's not available anywhere here and they were all sold out weeks ago. At least this wya I'm more likely to get some revision done before the exams which start in a couple of weeks.
