Thread: Grand Theft Auto IV

  1. #16

    Default

    I originally bought the 360 for GTA 4 (and the fact that there were no games I wanted for the ps3)

    then they post-poned it until around now

    I was angry

    Now that it's almost out though I'm getting pretty giddy, I'm taking the day off of work when It comes out, and I already have my pre-order set

    to say the least.... I'm excited

    I wasn't particularly eager to get the game beforehand (though I was going to get it), but after seeing that article and a few others I am definitely looking forward to it.

    In fact, it convinced me to go out and purchase my 3rd Xbox 360 last night, since that's the version I want it for.

    I hate them because their target audience would find that kind of joke funny.

    Anyway, I've said my piece. Continue fangasming.

    Well that's the thing about GTA games. Yeah, they have all that really god damn obvious innunendo and "69 hurrr" bull on the surface, and while that might get a quick snicker or a roll of the eyes, the more subtle satirical stuff they've got going on is pretty damn tasty.

    I'll say now, I have hated every GTA to date. I never played the PSP one, or vice city stories, but they looked just as horrible as Grand Theft Auto 3.

    Yet will all the things they are adding into IV I've been reading and hearing about, I think my hatred of GTA may change, as I really seem to want this game.

    I might get it, but I don't think it supports local multiplayer (ie, two controllers on the same Xbox 360) so I probably won't get to do much multiplayer online as it would end up with Danielle and I fighting over the controller.

    So if the review is correct in that the only real advance on the other GTAs is the multiplayer stuff and Danielle and I can't both play at the same time, then it's not much of an advance for me. Still, here's hoping there is eventually a Windows release so we can both hitch on that way.

    The other advance is that it is MASSIVE. Plus pedestrians are meaningful.

    From what I understand, based on the GTA IV review by FHM since they got a play-through themselves, it's not as large as the likes of GTA San Andreas.

    It's not as large in terms of sheer space, but that's because much of SA's map was empty countryside in which very little happened. The urbanised area of GTAIV looks to be about as large as the three cities of San Andreas combined, and you just know that every street of it is going to be packed with stuff to do.

    Besides, the big advances are in the new physics engine and the revised combat system. That's more important than multiplayer to me, but I think I'm in the minority.

    Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.
