BTW, the new nvidia game ready drivers for GTAV are out. I checked the official forums and so far there are reports of problems with SLI and DSR, but other then that they seem good. Not going to install them myself though, unless I encounter problems with the old drivers I have, and wait a bit longer to see if any more problems with the drivers arise.

Sorry buds but $70 plus whatever I'm going to have to pay for tax is just too much m00la for me to fork over for a game I already own. I never hooked up with any of you on the 360 so I just can't justify it.

Realistically I'll play with you guys maybe half a dozen times or so at most so it's just not worth it.

If I move into little P's basement then I'd reconsider but for now it makes no sense.

Sorry guys.

We kept inviting you but you never joined!

lol Shilka you numpty

Quick - I will be loading it up and tweaking the graphics tonight to see how it runs etc. but I really can;t stay up late tonight, I have a mental day tomorrow and I need to be alert. I just know if I start playing the story or GTA Online I will most likely play all night and be a zombie the next day... dammit. Life has a way of getting in the way of gaming. But, at least it will give you a chance to get to level 12 and buy a high end apartment so we can do some heists Saturday evening eh

As for '42 I'd love to but in 10 minutes I will be sitting down with the missus to eat pizza and watch Interstellar... But once that's done I will hop on TS and see what's happening fo' sho'

I've installed them. I never have any problems with drivers (he says, inevitably having problems with these...)

Just read this;

Custom Soundtracks
It may not be the Spotify integration we were hoping for, but Rockstar is letting players make their own radio station using music files on their computer. After putting copies of song selections into a specific folder, you can listen to them on the Self Radio station. An auto scan will identify new songs as you add them upon starting the game.
Players have a few different options for listening to these custom soundtracks. You can play them sequentially, shuffle the collection, or have Rockstar integrate them into a radio experience complete with commercial breaks, station IDs, bumpers, and banter between DJs Cliff Lee and Andee, who you may remember from Lips 106 in Liberty City Stories. In the pause menu you can choose whether you want to have the songs play in the order you have them in the folder or to let the game analyze the collection and build a playlist order.
If you don’t want to build your own station, you can enjoy some new tunes on the in-game stations courtesy of Rockstar. For the PC version, the developer added The Lab FM, hosted by Alchemst and Oh No, to the rotation. Artists featured on this eclectic new station include Earl Sweatshirt of OFWGKTA fame, Little Dragon, Tunde Adebimpe from TV on the Radio, Phantogram, Freddie Gibbs, Gangrene, Future Islands’ Samuel Herring, and more.

Oh my fack I will spend almost as much time creating my own radio station and making movies as I will playing!

Do you have a windows user name that contains special characters? (characters other then A to Z, a to z, 0 to 9) Then read this:

13 April

Dear Steam Customer,
We recently learned of an issue that can impact players attempting to install Grand Theft Auto V on Windows PCs. For those experiencing this issue, you have three options available to you at this time.
First, Rockstar Games intends to have a fix for this issue soon.
Second, customers can try the manual work around detailed below.
Third, if neither of the above works for you, the self-refund tool will continue to be available until the official fix is released.
We apologize for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience.
Please see below for more information from Rockstar Games, including details on the manual workaround.
The Steam Team
We have identified an issue where players with Windows usernames that include characters not found in the table at the bottom of this page will likely run into difficulties when attempting to download, install, or play GTAV. We are currently working on a fix for this issue.
If you do not want to wait for a fix, you need to create a new AdministratorUser Account for your Windows system that only includes letters A to Z, a to z or numbers 0-9 from the basic roman alphabet. For a full list of supported characters, see the table at the bottom of this page. Please note that simply renaming your current User Account will not correct this issue. To create the account, follow these instructions from the Microsoft website:

• Windows 8/8.1:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-user-account#create-user-account=windows-8
• Windows 7:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-user-account#create-user-account=windows-7
• Windows Vista:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-user-account#create-user-account=windows-vista

We will update this support article with any new information as soon as we have it, including expected timing of a fix and whether you will be able to transfer progress on the newly-created Windows username over to your original Windows user account.
If you would like to receive an automatic update via email when there is more information about a fix, please log into the Support Site and click Subscribe at the top of this page.
Supported Characters At Launch for Windows Usernames for GTAV PC

Mine decrypted just fine, and (after a steam restart) I've got the play button now. First need to get my kid to school, and ofcourse there is a school market this morning my wife wants me to go to with her. Will report back later!
