Welcome to Grand Theft Auto V Week on IGN

You no doubt already have your calendars marked for September 17 -- the day Grand Theft Auto V releases. It's going to be a loooong couple of weeks to wait.

Fortunately, we can help pass the time. We've lined up a ton of fun Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online content that will hit IGN between now and launch. Here's the schedule, which will be updated as more pieces fall into place. Note: each day's content will be posted at 9am PDT/12pm EDT/.

Just a heads up posting the info like that is considered spamming.

[HammadTheBeast]

Why? It usually gets people helpful bubbles.

[inmusicutrust]

I agree with hammad, but generally that's on the pages that require you to click through each page to get through the list so I guess I can see how this would be questionable.

[maximus1985]

your annoying, its not spam hes helping.

[MestreRothN4G]

I did it because I appreciate when people do the same, bringing the core info here, specially when I'm spending my miserable mobile bandwidth. No hard feelings.

[HammadTheBeast]

Tomorrow's article is the only good one, the rest I don't care about unless they can finally show us a GAMEPLAY PLAYTHROUGH PLEASE.

[inmusicutrust]

Not gonna happen.

[Jeff257]

I can't wait to read the online hands on. But I want to play it more. I hope I can get through the Single player before Online launches but with the massive amount of things to do and the things that might make me distracted says that I will probably be trying to do the SP and MP together.

Still cant decide whether to buy GTA V or wait and save for Next gen console

[koh]

A tough decision if you genuinely don't think you can (or should) afford both. But if you can sit around waiting for next-gen GTA V, for at least 6 months if not longer, while everyone else is playing it then you're a stronger man than me.

[LakerGamerEnthusiast]

Get the game now, and trade it in for the next gen version if that's ever announced. don't hold out for something that is not even announced yet whether it should be or not.

Because should the occasion never come, you would have missed out on an incredible game while waiting for another release that would never have happened.

Just my two cents, But go for it ! Don't hold out.

EDIT: Wait, do you mean saving for an actual Next-Gen Console or buying this game? If so, then that's a bit tough. If you're slow at saving money, then I'm not sure what you should do. How about you sell some things you don't need to accumulate the money you would be saving for next gen ? that way you can still buy GTA and not lose much in your grand total for next gen.
