Someone on my friends list is playing this just now for review. http://imgur.com/1gGLBAr
Meh. Played it a year ago. Admittedly it was a very different game back then.

All being well, I should be able to grab a quick go this weekend.

Don't believe so.

The price of upgrading from PS+ to the retail version will be £42.99:

I'm planning to get the PS+ version to check it out & if I like it i'll either buy the upgrade or maybe buy the disc if I see it cheaper than the upgrade price somewhere.

I don't normally do full game Digital Downloads, but I got myself some cheap PSN credit yesterday, so will basically be paying under £37 for a AAA racer from the UK store.

Can't complain really.

PS+ Upgrade is showing in the UK store at £34.99!

My cdkeys credit means I'm now paying less than £29 for Driveclub. Bargain!

Pre ordered and set to auto download.

Happy days.

I've got £29.07 in my wallet. Don't know if I should just add another tenner so can get it at that price. Everything looks great but don't know if it's worth gambling on just yet

It's official. Sony's own people have mentioned it on Twitter.

I just turned my PS4 on and it's not downloaded anything (I bought it using store in app) so I checked the store on the console & it just says set auto download. When will it download? I thought the whole point was you can download now but not access it until release date? the thing is, I'm sure I saw the orang bar start to flash when I clicked to buy

I had this problem with Fifa. I didn't know when it was going to download.

When you go into Driveclub on the store, is it just showing you a countdown timer ? And if you click on the time, there's an auto download option ?

I'm not sure when it downloads but mine didn't download up until the day before release. And at time I had to go into the store where a download button had appeared under the timer. So I guess I ended up manually downloading it before the release.

Yeah, just a download timer for now. Lucky that I went into look though as Driveclub hadn't been ticked to download, only the DLC cars.

The only other time I preordered from the store was Infamous First Light & it cancelled on me

Assuming £34.99 is the permanent price (which it should be!), then I'll just wait until I've tried out the free version. If I like it, I'll upgrade...simples!

Out of interest, why bother pre-ordering if there's "free" PS+ version to try out first. It might be a rubbish (but beautiful) game!

It's not an unknown title. We've seen so much of it in the past few months that some people will know if it's to their tastes or not. And some people want it day 1 anyways.
