Who said I paid $50 for those games? I just think it's ridiculous to charge $60 for a CD and a manual. I'll just wait until I can get it used. I'm only getting 8 hours a week at my job right now, and @ 8.xx an hour, this game would be my entire week's earnings. Not worth it

Jesus, how old are you and where do you work? 8 hours?!

I'll have it tomorrow for the 360. I thought about heading out and picking it up at midnight, but it's only GTA which isn't a huge deal to me. Quite frankly, I find GTA to be highly overrated.

Side note: I joked with my friend and said I'd be the one at the police station reporting my car stolen while I picked up GTA.

i have to agree with i Vtec in the sense that games cost WAY WAY too much these days. i am carefull with the money i spend on games, and im a bargain hunter especially this generation of console games. i still havent truley paid $60 for a console game yet.

as for my PS3 ive never paid a more than $60
1st game. heavenly sword. free under BB promotion with PS3 purchase
2nd: Warhawk: $40 game.
3rd: Assasins Creed: $40 on sale
4th: GT5:P. $40 game.

but i have to disagree that i tink a game can be worth $60 if its good enough.
there are 2 games in which ive paid $60 and both have been worth every single penny:
-Warcraft III (PC, 2002)
-Half Life 2 (PC, 2004)

technically i ended up spending $100 on WC3 since i also spent $40 on the expansion, and you know what, it was still worth it.

m gonna nab the Circuit City deal with the $10 gift card net cost $50. regardless, with the added multiplayer, i think that GTA IV is worth $60.

oh, btw does anyone remember the cost of N64 cartridges when it was new? $75 to $85 was not uncommon. in 1996!

Its not 1996 anymore. Technology is getting more advanced and it costs more money. Just going to get worse and more money as time goes on.

illusionstwice · 04-29-2008, 11:24 AM

hialeahzbg · 04-29-2008, 12:28 PM

***Zeuceone*** · 04-29-2008, 12:59 PM

Any one having trouble connecting to multiplayer.

07SI FTW · 04-29-2008, 01:03 PM

picking mine up this afternoon

razasasin · 04-29-2008, 01:22 PM

How are the servers coping with multiplayer demand? Any lost connections/timeouts? PS3? XBOX?

***Zeuceone*** · 04-29-2008, 01:29 PM

It won't let me get on multiplayer. Something about cannot connect to game provider, please try again later.

shawnono · 04-29-2008, 01:31 PM
