Rockstar has poured a lot of resources into GTA V Online since release and has made a bucketload while doing so. Don't think they kept game production up to meet demand either so the price has stayed near RRP for so long.
Yes, you need PS+ for PS4 online play. You can buy monthly, 3-month or yearly subscriptions.

Because its the best game for re-playability ever made by about a million miles! Its still my go-to game most the time. Although thats just my opinion!
Heat added, this was posted last night as an in store deal and some of us were doubtful so nice to see it online.

Anybody else having problems ordering from GAME at the moment? I keep getting "The store has encountered a problem processing the last request. Try again later. If the problem persists, contact your site administrator." at the basket stage.

is this a digital game version?

Couldn't the game order be cancelled and the user just keep the game card this way and not pay anything?
Gamerofgames
22 Oct 16#12
No, I think he meant the game card in game cash
SavageDonkey
22 Oct 16#13
As stated. the game will be coming by post in physical form but the Whale Card is digital delivery.

Cheers op. Had ordered from Tesco but cancelled. Always nice to have money in the bank, even if it is virtual....

I'm new to ps4 from ps3 I heard that you have to pay a monthly subscription to play gta v online is this true? thanks for any answers.
Gamerofgames to Spikeywikey
22 Oct 161#22
Yeah basically to play online on any game you need to have a playstation plus subscription. You are eligible for a 14 day free trial when you first sign up and after that you can either order a 1month, 3 months or 1 year subscription for £6, £15 and £40 RRP respectively. There are websites which sell these subscriptions cheaper than this and you can find them by searching the HUKD site.

unfortunately You have to pay an online subscription for all games on PS4.

Can you purchase from Game online using a Game gift card?
Gamerofgames to n7hea
22 Oct 16#24
Yeah, if you go into GAME and use the voucher to top up your GAME card account it will register as a balance which you can use on any online purchase.

Above comments state it was/is instore also but unsure, I've asked my gf to look today as she works at the white rose

Someone posted the same deal in store yesterday, so I would guess so.
dhc28791

just bought one from Tesco Direct £28. Free UK delivery
creepyg to dhc28791
22 Oct 161#31
Doesn't include cash card though. I originally bought from Tesco too but cancelled and went for this instead. Figure for the extra £1.99 it's worthwhile.
zen200
22 Oct 16#32
Cheaper in Smytha toys
Gamerofgames to zen200
22 Oct 16#33
Again this does not include the cash card which by itself is about £30 as others have stated
JonnyIrish
22 Oct 16#34
Great deal. Picked this up a couple of months ago and got over £25 for the shark cash code on eBay, so it worked out at less than a fiver for the game. I'm sure the code will still be going for a similar price
Eden0032
22 Oct 161#35
Thanks OP. :smile:
comshoplesce
22 Oct 161#36
so you buy game and sell the code for shark cash? :smiley:
darkspace100
22 Oct 16#38
Honest question what do you actually do in the game not to get bored? I bought this on download in 2014 and got bored in the middle of 2015 and haven't played it much since. Theres barely anything to do and most modes are empty. GTA 4's multiplayer was so much better.
creepyg
22 Oct 16#39
The cunning stunt mode looks like it could be quite entertaining. Anyone who's played it care to comment?
chumpyuk
22 Oct 16#40
Thanks ordered and got the code through straight away :smirk:
dodoegg1
22 Oct 16#41
so is this whale shark card just for use in grand theft auto? or can it be used to buy a PSN subscription? also, has anybody seen this in- store (got love to shop vouchers I need to use up so this would be perfect)
creepyg
22 Oct 161#42
It's in-game currency for use in GTA online. You can buy cars, guns, clothes etc with it. AFAIK you can't use it in the main game, only GTA online.
csr
22 Oct 16#43
Got this in Watford store today.
trainspotter777
22 Oct 16#44
Thinking of getting this and selling on the code as I don't play online. I know the code is supposed to be worth £30 but has anyone had luck selling it and for how much?
Whyte901
22 Oct 16#45
Anyone else ordered and not received the code? I ordered on Xbox one just had confirmation email
Warnic05
22 Oct 16#46
Well I went into store today but they were sold out of new copies but the bloke behind the counter had heard of this deal in store. Ended up ordering online as it's not urgent and only a present.
chrisjordan666
22 Oct 162#47
Ordered and received the code straight away. Thanks OP.

Theres this thing called "google". How about you use that.
dodoegg1
23 Oct 161#49
Ew. Do one you troll.
MrGimmeThatHeat
23 Oct 16#50
Surely this should be alot hotter. You could sell the shark card for £20 at least. Surprised this hasnt hit 4 digits already.
jayc1980
23 Oct 16#51
yes, sold mine for £20.99 on Ebay. making the game about £10 for me. not interested in playing online so it's perfect for me.
jellypawn
23 Oct 16#52
So cex are doing 25 store credit, so game would match and add 1 to 26. You could theoretically buy the card for £3.99 over and over again
Old Man
23 Oct 16#53
Does anyone know if this is available instore?
EvilA
23 Oct 16#54
Yeah, this is a great deal.
Taz1106
23 Oct 161#55
Did just the same from game when it was £32.99 months back. Managed to sell the card on ebay for £22.
I can see how it would be useful in game to keep it but you can earn the cash by playing anyway..
danlers
23 Oct 16#56
good deal for new
darkspace100
23 Oct 16#57
I won't "do one" you sack of potatos.
trainspotter777
23 Oct 16#58
Price up to £81.99 now.
DW21
23 Oct 16#59
Reckon it will still be £30 instore?
iz123456789
23 Oct 16#60
no longer available at this price, damn!
i dont even own a ps4/xbox (still on ps3) but why do i feel like i missed out on a good deal?
Whyte901
24 Oct 16#61
Cancelled my order and now gone up to £81! Tried calling to see what was gone on but they wont honour it
trainspotter777
24 Oct 16#62
I tried the same yesterday when they still were still advertising it on their homepage at 29.99 but they refused to honour. GAME are crap when it comes to customer service in my opinion.
jayc1980
24 Oct 16#63
did you get your code though?
bigphil2003
24 Oct 16#64
I stuck the code on ebay for £18.99 and it was sold within an hour. Could probably get more if you don't mind waiting but I was just looking to recoup my money fairly quickly. £11 for GTA V is a stonking deal so thanks a lot!
Whyte901
24 Oct 16#65
Nope ordered Xbox for click and collect and just got confirmation and then a cancellation email
how did you find that out?
its actually £29.99 in my basket with the code included! hmm VERY tempted but i dont own a ps4 or have Playstation Plus!
Gamerofgames
25 Oct 16#72
Haha it was just on the homepage, its also back on for xbox one if that helps, you could also just buy it to sell the card and keep the game until you do get a ps4/xbox one. It would only cost about £11 that way as well
trainspotter777
25 Oct 16#73
Could do but card isn't even selling at 19.99 at the moment on eBay.
Was considering buying but just remembered I bought gta off the Canada psn so the points won't be compatible will they?
JumpMan1980
27 Oct 16#76
That's exactly what I am doing.. brill value.
trainspotter777
27 Oct 16#77
How is this deal not hotter? Basically GTA for £10-£15 depending on what you can get for the cash card. Stonking deal
luxton_9
29 Oct 16#78
Really tempted by this, but I've got in for the ps3 and am about a third of the way through. Is it worth it to have on the ps4?
trainspotter777
29 Oct 16#79
Item has disappeared off their website now anyway so offer is no longer available. I would stick with ps3 version unless you can pick up the ps4 one cheap as its basically the same game. :smiley:

Opening post
This is better than the Tesco and Smyths toys deals as you are effectively paying £2 more than those 2 for in game credit worth £30 on its own.
