Where in the world do you pre-order the physical 'code in box' edition?
>>
>>741836782
I checked, you can order the box on UK's Amazon but not in an actual good country. Im guessing when the its midnight for the Hawaiianfags it will be site wide.
>>
>>741836897
If it's only available via big retailers i'm going to have to pre-order in person because PS5 game cases always get partially crushed in transit

>GTA VI does the typical $100 Collectors/Deluxe/Founders Edition
>Has your typical handful of cosmetics/guns/cars
>People freak the fuck out like they locked 1/5th of the game behind an extra $20
I mean I don't like it but have gamers not learned how to interpret Corporate greed lingo after all these years? TakeTwo/R* literally just placed the exclusive items in exclusive "Stores" to make it sound more impactful and everyone is falling for it with FOMO.
>>
>>741836118
I'm not preordering anything that's not a disc. At the very least it will be a last moment buy on the PSN store. That's if I'm still feeling excited for it which I'm not right now.
>>
itll be just movie game cutscenes with driving forever into subpar third person shooting
gta5 wasnt even a good game
not hyped for this at all, i will just rent it for free from library or pirate it on pc next year
>>
>>741836118
Yeah, every retard thinks they're intelligent
>>
>>741837420
Rideout Customs Mod Shop is only available for the ultimate edition so that's kind of a massive pay wall, limiting vehicle modifications unless want to fork over the cash.
Once PC version is out can just pirate ultimate edition or get a mod to unlock it all anyway.
>>
>>741836118
It's just like when a tranny considers themselves a woman.

>>741837420
The "physical copy" that literally isn't a physical copy is way worse.
Not to mention the minimum $80 just for an incomplete product.

You're a dumb piece of shit anyway. Fuck you, bootlicking filth.
>>
literally no point if theres no pre-download. PSN is guaranteed gonna crash on that day.

>>preordering a digital game.

You're not wrong. But I hate this type of post because it is phrased like there is an alternative. There is ONLY digital games. Physical games are GONE for anything new.
>>

>I'm not preordering anything that's not a disc
Here is your paper disc with a download code, sir. What year are you in, man?
>>
>>741840285
There is, pre-download according to Playstation is 11/12
>>
>>741840460
It's only the patches that fuck up a respective offline install experience in getting a potentially buggy game. Peace of mind is still the initial install. I've done offline installs from disc before even on the DRM'd Drive for PS5 pro. The way the phone home thing works is just having your connected at least once to PSN. It doesn't have anything to do with the install of the games after that.

>not waiting for the superior PC version

Does gaslighting even work as a marketing strategy?
>>
>>741840660
buy both goyim. they're counting on it.
>>

>Physical games are GONE for anything new
You're absolutely right
>it is phrased like there is an alternative
the alternative is not pre-ordering digital games

So there was no new trailer to go with the preorders opening? wtf? and people still opened their wallets?

You are a simp, simp's are not intelligent. They are followers and sheep. You are a bitch-boy and a paypig for leftwing radicals.
>>
>>741840685
this game is mostly marketed at normies where poor shaming is highly effective, so yes

>crossing your fingers and hoping your $60 sorry $90 game doesn't bork on install
>doing hacky DRM workarounds and using the phrase "phone-home"
This is absolutely insane and will eventually backfire directly in your face. Oh no, Sony cracked down on it and there goes all your shit. You're not wrong for wanting this. It's just so lame this is the status quo.

Hey retards. If you're gonna buy it anyway, then you might as well pre-order it. It's not rocket science.
>>
>>741836118
Does it have pc yet or are the doubling down on the meme
>>
>>741841062
Retards pay for nothing, that's you buddy. You are a cocksucker. You are so stupid you should have never been born.

Even more reason you shouldn't exist. Gas yourself you stupid kike
>>
>>741836118
what is there to pre-order they aren't even selling you the actual game files in a disk
>>
>>741841060
>doing hacky DRM workarounds
I don't understand what you're saying. All I'm saying is that once you register your PS5 slim disc drive add on onto the PS5 pro it requires only one 'phone home' to get it working which means the drive registers with Sony's server. You can pull your PS5 offline afterwards and never connect again and insert all of your games into your disc drive afterwards with no internet connection required and those games are actually on the disc. It's shit about the first step but it's still pretty close to the same idea we've always had about what a physical game actually means. Rockstar threw all of that out of the window and it means I'm not preordering this shit. Because i still know what the difference between digital and physical is. I cannot ever be hyped about a digital preorder. It's just giving them money in advance.
>>
>>741841280
You people are fucking cattle for real.
>>
>>741841670
You are the cattle. You are defending pointless consumerism and wastefulness and gluttony. All things that are not revered and make you look like a fucking pig. Yet you call people cattle for pushback? You are delusional. This is why your people were killed in the millions in the 1940s.

Explain why people are preordering my god it's over

ill just wait for the definitive edition on PC in 2028
provided the video game industry survives
>>
>>741841841
So... what do we *do*? Embrace the indie developer fully and hope they do not also buttfuck us? Because AAA gaming is no more

it's all performative these niggers are not that excited. They rob and steal for real. That's where they get their rush.

Better to sponsor NEETs than pay for NIGGERS
>>
There's no point in preordering in the year 2026 unless there's some unique preorder bonus but that's still gay and jewish anyway
>>
>>741845327
If you want to play on release you will need fiber internet or a week of preloading.
>>
>>741836118
>i consider myself intelligent btw
just like indians consider themselves good-looking or white
>>
But why? There isn't anything to gain from preordering a digital game. Just buy it when it comes out. This makes no sense.
>>

Your retarded

You're* retarded, retard
*learn to spell before calling people retarded, retard

>>741847083
They put in some stupid digital bonuses like giving you a fancy cosmetic costume or hat to make your preorder look like it has worth and they've been doing this in zoomer nostalgia years for the PS3 and Xbox 360. It's still as anti consumer as it ever was but they just give you some effortless crap that they could probably AI gen in couple of second nowadays. Not much has changed from that era except now they just give you an empty case.

Not interested in playing vice city again, I played the ps2 game. I shan’t be buying.
