The usually ship DVD's that are due to be released on a Monday, on the Friday before. I've had loads of DVD's arrive a couple of days before the shops start selling them.

Got it on Sunday from the local market, before anyone complains, i have it on pre order from Play
Well worth the wait, IMHO
The city is fecking massive with loads more detail in the scenery and cars. Language is colourful and very descriptive, not for the kiddies
Only done about a dozen or so missions but you know your onto a good thing when one of the characters in the opening sequence is voiced by Samuel L Jackson
One of the best aspects so far is the Talk Radio presenters

If you order with Play it will generally get shipped on the day of release..
Gameplay.com guarantee delivery on day of release. ( or in my past experience the day before release.. )

I'm going to get this one. I was a bit disturbed by watching people playing the first one, it certainly highlights personality traits. The playlist looks great and the map is huge.

Oooh the media are going to love this one when it hits the shelves
If they thought Vice City was violent, they ain't seen nothing yet !
Prepare for a wave of media hype blaming games for the rise in gang related crimes.

set my ps2 up today. Had to blow off the dust.
Connected it to my LCD tv. Unfortunately doesnt look very good. Not a nice crisp image when I tried using GTA vice city. Played a dvd though the ps2 and it looked great. not sure why vice city doesnt look any good.

Recaro - The DVD will play at max res of 1280x1040 through the PS2, but only at 320x240 for most games, sometimes 640x480. So the quality in not up to much on a high res screen.

That should bring out the best in it Switch the motion blur off too, but you've probably already done that Its not on in San Andreas, it only blurs when you get some real speed up, um, allegedly.
