 |
|
Has anyone spotted GTA:IV for sale anywhere in Seoul, Yongsan or one of the big department stores?
I've been reading all the online hype and am frankly desperate to get my sticky little hands on it. If there are any reports of a sighting, I'm dropping everything and heading into Seoul after work! |

| No sighting of it at Emart in Jukjeon / Bundang yesterday. Of course, they only have about 10 Xbox games there. |

Right, I'm going tonight!
Was it 360 or PS3 you asked about? |

No credit card for getting it online I'm afraid.
I went to the games alley in Yongsan tonight and I saw some magnificent specimens roaming wild and free, but sadly all were of the 360 genus. The vendors claimed they were getting the ps3 version tomorrow however, so it looks like my long vacation will be spend exploring Liberty City. |

No sadly it won't. Ironically on blackcats torrent site they posted a PAL version which also works on an NTSC-J 360 but NOT a NTSC (American) 360.
The status of my order at playasia remains "preparing order" with the release date of May 2nd. |

| I should have been more clear, I was pointing out that if he happened to get an asian version NTSC-J that it would NOT work with his amercian console. If he happened to have an NTSC-J console though, he could (supposedly) play the PAL version (if it were available here for purchase) on an NTSC-J console. My point being that strangely a PAL version would work on an NTSC-J console, that's all. |

Incidentally, if anyone buys the Hong Kong/Europe PAL Xbox360 version at Yongsan don't pay more than 70,000 for it. There were some idiots selling it for up to 90,000 won last night.
Believe the hype..it's an amazing game. |
