Seriously, hold your monies and do not pre-order GTA V. Otherwise you might get disappointed as with most games that have been released recently.

2015, the year of no more pre-purchases!

You may notice that doesn't say -80% discount. Just -80%.
That is the difference. If you are specifying it is a discount, it should be '80% discount'.

This is not a 'how percentages work' thing, but a 'how the English language works (or doesn't)' thing.

Using Steam and the same game as an example... http://img42.com/ELnSY

  • 360 gamepad support wasn't in there until they removed the music
  • Additional content in a game of that scale is often unneeded IMO
  • I already have a beaten save on PS2, no way am I replaying all of that

That's why third party software exist. You may have a point with the second item, I mean, you can add your own music to the game. Mission Master allows you to choose the mission you want to play, and there are 100% saves you can download in several sites.

3rd party software is a pain in the arse to set up, which is why I'm ignoring some of my current collection of Steam games. Still wouldn't be likely to play it anyway. The 100% saves aren't a problem, just that I'm not going to return to the game, I haven't even played it on PS2 for several years.

Yeah, wasn't happy to hear it myself. At least when Vice City lost some of the songs, it only effected new buyers. Not so with San Andreas.

Wait WHAT? They removed songs from Vice City? B-b-b-but... Vice City's soundtrack is the best ever. Seriously, words cannot express its glory. Well, wow, I have played Vice City at least a dozen times - same for Vice City Stories - but, sheez, thank you for making me aware of this, now I'm sure I won't get it on Steam in addition to my non-Steam version...

How could anyone do such a horrible thing to the glory of Flash FM. :(

It happened because certain companies think that the game should only be allowed to have their content for so long.

Nah...

I'm pretty sure that logic only applies to games like Titanfall, DayZ, Evolve, Hatred, etc that are/were brand spanking new and you have/had no idea whether the game will/would live up to the hype.

GTA 5 has been out for a long time on multiple platforms.

Unless the game comes to PC completely unplayable, people have no reason to complain once it is released because they ought to know what they are getting by now.

I pre-ordered the upcoming Resident Evil Remaster HD. I haven't done such nonsense in years, but am a sucker for RE games. I just couldn't resist at 25% off before release. Even if it sucks, I'm happy. It doesn't make sense, but I'm okay with it.

Resident Evil HD, Heroes M&M 3 HD, Project Cars, Dying Light, Witcher 3 are all pre-ordered right now along with GTA 5. Might will refund Dying light, I just wanted to stop myself from impulse buying during the winter sale with my steam wallet.

Hotline Miami 2 and MGS5 are ones I will buy/pre-order.

There are some other games I have my eyes on but probably wont pre-order them.

Actually, it's confirmed every pre-order means R* moves one GTA-port-worker to work on console content.

Seeing how more then 3 preorders were made, whole PC-team is now working on console content and current crappy build will be released in March. Thanks!

Eh, another one of those threads where some random stranger tells you not to do something, even though whether you do it totally won't matter to him...

9 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

The reason these threads exists is that when people keep pre-ordering games, publishers will keep releasing broken games. If they can get money in advance, they don't have to make sure that the game is polished and has no game-breaking bugs. Do you think Ubisoft would have released AC: Unity in the state it was if they hadn't already cashed in on the pre-orders?

I was going to buy it, I had budgeted it and bought steam bucks for it so I wouldn't spend the money on something else. But then they delayed it one too many times. They'll get my money in the summer sale, maybe. Instead, I got some stuff for myself and got some games for the community (giveaways already concluded).

If R* had put this at $50 instead of $70CAD, I would've pre-ordered it. Asking that much for a standard PC game is just too much. The pre-order extras suck too.
