Sounds like you can.

Though with The Last of Us, you could get a deal on it if you were upgrading from the old console. But still, I'm not all that into spending $60 to a game company twice just to play an upgraded version a year later...

I hate switching between different consoles for older games, so it's worth it for me. Plus extra stuff and improved graphics...yeah, I'm sold. :p

So...Did I hear that you can copy your Xbox 360 saves over to the Playstation 4 version? Because if so, that's pretty funny.

Don't know about 360 to PS4, but maybe...
They did say "your choice of." :unsure:

Doesn't really seem like enough to be worth $60, but did they even say it would cost that much for people who have the game already?

Since because of the Rockstar Social Club, as a Xbox 360 user, you are going to be able to transfer your save data over to the PS4 if you upgrade your Grand Theft Auto V, I'm curious how many Xbox 360 users I know that have decided after the shit Microsoft did with the Xbox One will get a Playstation 4 and still be able to play the same game they had on the Xbox 360....

Also, I'm kinda curious if someone playing the game online on the Playstation 4 can see the same people who play it on the Playstation 3...If so, maybe my sister and I can play that way :P

...Though I'm probably being hopeful.

They didn't.
Maybe they'll give people who already bought it a discount of some kind...or let you do a trade-in. :unsure:

Maybe. Though, since the graphics wouldn't be the same, I doubt it would work.
But I know nothing about that kind of technical stuff, so maybe there is a way it could work. :p

Well, multiple PC gamers play online games on different computers with different graphical capabilities, and that doesn't seem to cause any problems, so it seems like if it was on the same server it should work fine, but I don't really know how it works with consoles...

That's a good point. I say there's a good chance that would work then.
But like you said, depends on how it works with consoles vs PCs.

So, you guys know that annoying-ass IP thing you have to do every time you hack something? Well, I just redid the Bureau Job, and it was there literally the second I started looking. I didn't even have to move the thing.

I had one online job I did with somebody where you had to hack into the gate to get into this house to steal some cars (Early mission I think), and god damn, it moved so freaking fast, neither of us could solve the god damn thing after like 10 minutes of trying.

So I get a bounty from an NPC on solo play online and I go into a free play session with other players. I get a text from Simeon asking me to get x cars for him and texts reminding me of the bounty. So I go, find the nearest player and try and get their attention to the point of standing in the middle of the road and jumping up and down. They run me down, claim the bounty, I respawn and go about my business and the guy that takes the bounty gives me the money it was worth.

Someone gave me half of the money they got off of me once. Was surprised. Even I'm not that generous....

There have been a couple of times where i have given my target some or all of the money from the Bounty. Usually if it is something very low like a grand or three i will just give them it back, but for higher bounties if they give a good chase and make me go through a lot of stuff to get them i would give them some of it as a reward for a good game.

Game looks fantastic on the new consoles. When will heists come out? I'm running out of things to do.

Also, I heard a rumor about horse racing.

Who knows. R* said Spring but...Spring is pretty much over. Either they'll surprise us and release them in the next couple of weeks, or we'll be waiting 'til god knows when.

Haven't heard anything about horse racing but that...doesn't sound like something they'd add. :p

Libertarian California wrote:You can have more than one character?

Yes. Next time you're online, go to Character Selection. You'll see that the 2nd slot is open to make another character.

There's a total of five slots, three of which that are locked for whatever reason...
