i was just wondering if people are only pre ordering from Australian suppliers or if anyone is doing it on sites like play asia. is there any difference? i'm hesitant in pre-ordering a US version just in case there is something i don't know

So why are you all paying more in Australia rather than importing for cheaper????

Becuase the weight of the special edition pack isnt cheap to import Its not a light package

$150 is only $30 more than the game at EB So i think its worth it Even though you get mainly useless stuff

as if any of the extras are worth the extra money they are like easter show bags they might be cool for about a day or two and then you will get sick of em i reckon. The game will b hellas sweet though

well look at it this way, once the special edition isnt available anymore, you could put it on ebay and someone wold probly pay a good price for it

Be honest what of that would you actually use (besides the game), or would you just stare at it all for an hour or so and just store it away somewhere never to be seen again????

The cd soundtrack for me, that alone gotta be worth around $20. I've always wanted the San Andreas soundtrack, if its near as good as that then it will be kick arse, also want the bag and keychain

If people want to get it on the day of release I think u guys should just pre-order at EB Games and use the 15% off webmail offer, that way it will be $150 - 15% = $127.50.

Now that compared to the Dstore $120 + $6 = $126.00

You save $1.50 but you may have to take a day off work or receive it in the arvo from auspost store which closes 5 i think.

Plus you get the satisfaction of seeing the EB Games getting exploited losing money.

Anywayz how many of you are gonna buy more than one copy and sell it after they get pulled off the shelves to be clean, and sell them at ridiculous prices like Aussie 60gb ps3.
