GTA IV - how to save if buying at EB Games

Post by SILVERFISH »

if anyone is planning on buying GTA IV from EB Games tonight/tomorrow,
keep in mind EB have a price matching policy
so they'll match any advertised price.

print out a copy of this page and take it in with you -

(or save & print this)

a lot of people have had pre-orders with EB,
and EB will be having stores open at midnight tonight for pre-sale copies.
plus some suburbs may have EB more convenient to them than Big W.

(also, there's a rumour going around that Big W might not be releasing it til thursday)

if you can find a cheaper advertised price on the GTA bundle, EB should match it.
but i haven't seen the bundle advertised anywhere other than EB.

u can get this off ebay for around 70ish dollars. the only difference with paying the 8 dollars more is the peice of mind of going to a store, and not having the hassle of delivery.



I WANT THIS GAME ! I still play gta vice city, and i still have the very very first gta on my comp (not the greatest, but the start of a classic) !

Because of 1 asshole South Australian senator last month, we have no R18+ ratings for games, and as such Australia becomes the only decomcratic country in the world that gets an "edited" version of the game :roll:

http://blogs.smh.com.au/screenplay/arch ... 18027.html

And as such, to declare my protest against the political correctness barons on this f*cking country, Im going to download the full US version... with all the filthy bits.

While you can spin the camera 360 degrees around the car and see Niko and the hooker bumping and grinding in the US version, during the act of sex the camera remains locked at the rear of the car, focusing on the bumping car itself and the sound effects in the Aussie version.
