After reading the notes, i looked for the newly released version and i had the cloud symbol instead of the price in Euro. Pressed it and it started downloading without asking if i want to purchase it. Guess i got the new version for free.

It looks like it was the iPhone version that became universal but Rockstar seems to have merged the seperate iPhone and iPad purchases so nobody get's left out. amusing Grace Well-Known Member Dec 23, 2008 1,685 8 38 Music, Muse, Magick Berlin, Germany #5 amusing Grace, Dec 18, 2014 Last edited: Dec 18, 2014 I have now the old HD and the new universal version on my iPad. I took a screenshot of the storepage with the cloud symbol before i started the download, just to be one the safe side in case they want to charge me for the game. And if this free and painless update to a new universal version is intended, then i have to applaud Rockstar for doing the right thing in a way that i haven't heard of before. marker1c Well-Known Member Sep 14, 2010 307 0 0 Philipines #6 marker1c, Dec 18, 2014 Supports mifi controllers, awesome Hambo12 Well-Known Member Jul 23, 2012 1,943 28 48 on the internet #7 Hambo12, Dec 18, 2014 Omg.
