I'll probably edit this up until launch and then be done with adding anything new most likely,
unless there's some crazy special deal.

I originally posted this in Deal/Shopping Discussion but decided to move it here since it should be useful to many. I thought we could create a thread where we list all the GTA IV Deals & Bonuses we come across. Here is what I found so far. Please add any stores, deals, or bonuses I have neglected & indicate if it requires preorder.

I think Target has a free GTAIV skin for your PS3 if you preorder. In store, not online.

Thanks! I will add that once we get confirmation from another person, just so that I don't post things that might potentially not exist.

Yeah, I remember seeing something like that. I think it is also for the 360.

The free console skin is true for both the Xbox 360 and the PS3, but you need to reserve it with a $10 deposit.

I got the Amazon codes and I thought the pics were worthless.

Yeah, I think I will go for the T-shirt. If I can get it in the store.

Thanks.

Big thanks for the thread, J7; I've been getting really excited about this recently, and have been wondering just what kind of preorder deals are out there. If I can get it in my gold box, I might go with Amazon, or I might still look preorder it at a B&M store, we'll see...

I've had it pre-ordered on Amazon forever, and still no gamerpics for me. :/

you should message them if you haven't gotten your pics. I also have had mine pre-ordred for not too long, but a while and got an awesome deal.

I am going for the 15% employee discount version!

Glad I could help you out guys, at first I was casually searching to see what was out there, then I realized I could type it up + put links and share it with all in the process. I have a question myself. I am wondering if you preorder at a place, say BB, to get the poster... is the poster going to be all folded up? How would they ship it?

I'm leaning towards ordering Mario Kart & GTA:IV from Newegg & save close to $15 over in store with taxes. I'm waiting until the ads for that week are known just in case there's some gift card promotions somewhere that might make it more worthwhile to go out & get it. Thanks for the thread, I was curious as to what the big pre-order bonuses were for GTA that are out there.

dam it i already pre-ordered over at gamestop, the special editions for both ps3 and 360 and canceling which ever offers more as far as download able content. i keep hearing that the 360 version is going to offer exclusive downloadble content. anyone know if only the 360 version is really getting more than the ps3.

i think im keeping my target reserve. I need a skin for my ps3

If I hadn't of gotten an awesome price mistake from Amazon on the LE, I would totally go for the skin or the t-shirt.

I might go for the T-shirt.

The Newegg link doesn't work for me. That's probably where I'd preorder it.

MS played a boat load of money to get exclusive missions. How big they will be has yet to be confirmed. Already stated that the Xbox 360 version will be superior because of the content. I have never played a GTA on Xbox but this content will probably sway me to buy the 360 version.


I will most likely preorder it work and go for the employee discount. Should get a decent one on the Collectors Edition.
