FYI

if you do decide to pounce on the digital copy of GTAV for £15 after the main download it wants to some weird install thing for 45 mins when you first load it!

When I played story for the first time it did this as well, I guess it happens for everyone!
Aye it’s loading normally now

The city honestly amazes me. It feels so alive with everyone out and about doing this thing. Lord knows how they code the whole thing!!

I'm trying to get the consoles of my youth. I never owned a MD but my neighbour did and before that, I occasionally used to rent one! Can you imagine it? I'd go to the local independent video rental place and they had 2 megadrives to rent - £5 a night but a £50 deposit per time!

Playstation was something I had at university.

But both were boxed how can I say 'no'???

I had a radio rentals tv growing up. When the 29" Sony 4:3 broke they would only replace it with a 28" Widescreen or we could 'upgrade' to the 32" Widescreen ...if we paid another £3 a month. We didn't want to pay so my dad went out and bought a TV....and that was the end of the rented TV.....

Nice one. I've been after one but holding out for a specific version with its box. Gaming was better back when consoles were made of wood.

I wonder if anyone ever went back to dig up all those Atari games buried under Arizona. Would be worth a few quid or ebay by now.
