Wich version did you guys preorder? The standard version? I decided on the Special edition since the ultimate edition's bonus's seem to be online focused.

I never buy anything but the standard version of games. For me it's not worth the extra initial cost and by time I'm done with the base content of a game the extra's can usually be picked up pretty cheaply. But that's me, I'm not a die-hard gamer or haven't found extra content that's been a must have. I can afford it, it's just something I do (or don't do).

I guess I am a sucker for deluxe packages. Also almost never by a car which isnt full options. (except keyless entry which I always omit)
 
I've decided I'm not pre-ordering & will probably wait until I hear what you all think of it. There are a few reasons for that.

The main reason is pretty important & that is, I don't have a PS4 yet. I've been looking around for a bundle deal on a PS4 Pro 1TB with RDR2 & I haven't seen any. Speaking to the retailers, they're being cagey & not coming to the party when I ask for a deal :irked:

I've got my eyes on the Special Edition at $129 & the best I've seen a PS4 Pro at is $539 but, that comes with a mono headset (not needed/interested), HDMI & USB cables (not needed) and the DS4 controller. There's no way I'm spending over $600.

Well, if you are talking IRL cars then yeah, I like me my options. Strange you don't like keyless entry, this is one of my favorite features of my cars - I never have to pull a key out of my pocket!

I worry that I will lose track of my key if I have the feature.
 
Still need to pre-order, I'll probably just go with standard.

There is this one at EB, it's not Special Edition though. Edit: I just noticed you wanted a Pro :O

I felt the same about spending that much on a pro, so I bought I used one on eBay. $520 and it came with 15 games which I then sold on eBay for $260, so the pro only cost me $260 in the end.
Just an option if you don’t mind a bit of stuffing around with postage etc.

I appreciate the thoughts fellas but I think I’ll just have to show some patience with this - something I’m good at when it comes to big ticket items.

The right deal will come along & I’ll be all over it like ants on a lollie :mischievous:
 
I'm going to wait a while, I don't need another game at the moment and I would like to give it some time to hear if a PC port it going to come next year or some time before I buy it on the PS4.
 
I pre-ordered digital. I decided to go digital with the PS4 and not looking back at all. But 2 discs? That reminds me of the days with Floppies and discs back when I was gaming on C64 and Amiga.
 
I’ll be interested to read what you guys think of it.....if you can pull yourselves away from the PS4 for long enough to share your thoughts.

Epic 30 fps gameplay :D :D
I dont buy 30fps games anymore, im sick of it and done with this crap. The handful 60fps games on ps4pro are fun to play, i buyed them and enjoyed them. Hope there is a RDR2 pc release next year.

Yeah, I couldn't resist, RDR2 will be the first 30fps console game I've purchased in years. With that said, I'm still hoping they release an Xbox One X enhanced patch (performance mode - 60fps). I bought the physical disc version so I could possibly sell it if they release a PC version.
 
30FPS has never really bothered me unless I’m coming right from playing a 60fps game. Even than it’s just a few minutes of adjustment than I don’t even notice any more.
 
Yeah, I'm really not seeing the big deal with it. It's never even a thought to not purchase something just because of that alone. That seems a bit out there. Sure, a higher FPS wouldn't hurt, but I also don't feel not having that is hurting
 
Aren't most open world games 30 FPS, better yet, wasn't GTA5 30 FPS ?

Dang, on two discs? I wonder just how big this game is then. Wow, it wouldn't fit on a singe Blu-ray....pretty sure the last game was also on two discs, DVD-9 discs.

RDR was on a single disc.

It was only if you bought the special edition that came with Undead Nightmare that it came as a twin pack.

I guess you guys are not that old. I am from a generation that didnt see the importance of fps over gameplay. I mean movies play at 24 fps. GTA5 runs at 30 fps and honestly 30 fps is more then enough for most singleplayer games.

When I was growing up we only had Pong... so no issues with framerate for me :D.

I think it boils down more so to being spoiled by modern technology rather not being around during a time that had a lack of it.
