  1. Have to admit I still can't get my head around the stock market. Others have said they've made a fortune on it... god knows how. Most I can seem to make is a few grand which isn't enough (even when buying at a low price - for example I bought some shares in Gruppe Sechs for about $3.50 and apparently the highest its been, according to the stock market is $59.36, yet its been struggling to get to get to even $10). How long should I wait before it actually gets to a decent price? Investing in one company and 'attacking' its rival makes very little difference too.
  2. Which ones are the best/easiest to invest in with regards to you having an effect on the stock market value? (i.e. investing in one company then attacking the vans etc of its rival). For example, I've tried to invest in TacoBomb then attack the trucks & staff at the Cluckin' Bell factory but I can't get a real 'good' go at it as the cops soon arrive on the scene...
  3. More from me - got to admit I love this feature... when it actually works that is!
  4. I mentioned this in the snapmatics topic but one of the funniest moments for me was when I unintentionally (honest!) ran over and killed a blonde woman. The paramedics soon arrived and attempted to resuscitate her. Then, a passing motorist slightly bumped into one of the paramedics and she stopped her car. The paramedic she bumped into then opened her car door, dragged her out and both paramedics beat her to death! It was absolutely hilarious!
  5. Some more from me - still very erratic, sometimes it will work and upload and sometimes it won't. Missed some good shots as a result. Yes, I had run the cow over! Wish I could hit Amanda!
  6. Quite a number of stuff I can mention! I am particularly glad to see the return of car customisation - its been sorely missed. Quite a number of things you can do - even customising the horn. Random encounters - loving this feature (as I did in RDR). Its great how you can just suddenly come across them just while pissing around
  7. Agreed and its great to be able to drive at a high speed without fear of your car flying wildly out of control.
  8. It truly is stunning and I'm absolutely amazed by the sheer amount you can do. I've been playing practically all day and there's still a lot of the map I haven't even explored yet.
  9. Largely just random stuff from me so far... This was a funny moment - I had inadvertently knocked down the woman in the blond hair. The paramedics turned up but the woman in the white dress accidently bumped into them, next moment the paramedics drag her out of her car and beat her to death! Had to laugh at that one. Taken from the blimp.
  10. I've been playing for the past few hours and the map is that big I've barely 'skimmed' the surface! To say its stunning is an understatement. Just been cruising round in the blimp too (just plummeted to my death as Franklin from thousands of feet in the air, which was pretty spectacular!)
  11. Glad I saw this! I'll be adding it onto the list of 'things to do'!
  12. Heading to the midnight launch at my local GAME store later - they've left me a voicemail (last week) and sent me a text earlier today (as if I needed reminding!). They've also said there's still some special editions left over so I may just get that if they ask if I want to 'upgrade'. I think these next few hours are going to drag!
  13. For those (like myself) in the UK, GAME have a list of their stores that will have a midnight opening/early opening (8.30am): http://www.game.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/HubArticleView?hubId=183532&articleId=183537&catalogId=10201&langId=44&storeId=10151&cm_mmc=game-_-multi-_-GTAVPreorderCustomers-_-copy Thankfully the store I pre-ordered from (I've got two GAME stores where I live) is having a midnight launch - needless to say I'll be there!
  14. Too late now, majority are sold out. Ah well, serves myself right. Just hope my local Game shop are having an early opening on release day.
  15. Pre-ordered way back last year when they started taking pre-orders so obviously before the Special & Collectors Editions were announced. Been umming and ahhhing whether to change my pre-order to the SE.
  16. Have to admit, this is all far beyond what I was expecting. Only 16 players is just a slight negative. One things for sure, I think that's me sorted for the next year or so!
  17. Ha ha! Just what I was thinking! I wonder if we'll be able to tie Chop to the bumper and then 'forget' about him!
  18. I'll be booking the 17th off - learning from past mistakes where I've been working and spent the whole day clock-watching! Then of course once I have the game, I'll only be leaving my room for refreshments and asking the girlfriend not to disturb me!
  19. Bunch of bastards! If I'm honest, I was expecting a delay but certainly not by this much! Really, really disappointed as I got myself worked up and looking forward to spring. Ah well!
  20. I'll be swiping a bus/coach then driving to the nearest train line and park it on that.... I think you can guess the rest! Although this just depends on if pedestrians can actually catch the bus/coach. Other than that, I'll probably be boring and go exploring.
  21. Going by that, there's a brilliant choice of artists to choose from but on the other hand, there's sadly a chance talentless fuckwits from X Factor could be included!
  22. Absolutely immense and after watching that, these next few months will be painful waiting for it to come out.
