Not sure this time round but usually GTA packaging is epic.. contains map and proper book etc.

Well, I gotta say, for the couple of hours I got in before calling it a night, I had a lot of fun
They really do have a way with their humour/no punches pulled attitude.
I may yet end up playing with a controller though.... that or I need to check and see whether there is a way to lower the sharpness of turning on the KB. It just seems counter-intuitive though, as I much prefer my KB and Mouse when running on foot.
Edit: OOI, did anyone else have problems launching? I have to momentarily disable my AV for the social club to launch, then re-enable and all is well again.

What are the other/better options?
I see no proper book...
In any case. 55GB install. 50MB download. 5.04GB Download. 350MB Update 1 download. Had to babysit that 5GB bugger like mad to stop it from heading down the 6KB/s path...

Thanks for that, I'll take a look when home!
Got a free poster with mine. Getting a physical copy is mainly for the collection value and its a faster install if you have a slow line.

I had more fun with GTA Online than I did with GTA V on PS3. My character is rank 111 with over $20m cash. Griefing with the sniper, Buzzard, tank etc. in the lobbies and showing off ultra expensive vehicles never got old. One of the coolest moments in the game is when your team is in a mission and is struggling away on the ground and you come soaring in on a Buzzard with rockets flying and save the day.

Dunno. Europe I imagine. As long as Rockstar wasn't having server issues I never had latency problems.

I would be surprised, the game is "kind of" FPS'y, would expect lag to be more of an issue than it apparently is.
