Gta Iv

So I played the new GTA game today.

All I can say is... WOW!

If anyone in here is excited about it, it's definately justified!!
It looks stunning and feels like the most realistic GTA so far. I found the driving a bit of a bugger to get used to at first, having played the previous games. Once you get the hang of it, it's fantastic.

Also, this time around, beating up random people can get you into more trouble than before. I punched a guy and run off quite a distance. I wandered into a sex shop and when I turned around, the guy had followed me there with a mate. So yeah, I got a bit of a beating

Roll on Tuesday!

How did you manage to get a hold of the game before the release date? I heard that there was a rip online somewhere. Can't wait to see what it's like.

I work for a certain retailer. Not saying that it was that particular retailer that let me play it though, hehe.

You will love it though mate, it's been a while since i've been this excited about a game.

I'm looking forward to it. Preordered it today

I've got Tuesday and Wednesday off next week, so I'll be playing it for a good part of the day at least

i had to punt my ps3 when i got a new job (wasnt gonna get paid for 6 weeks to begin with!) but actually almost made a profit on it as i got it for a good price (and the games.)

ahhhh really want one again though, i miss motorstorm! and now GTA is nearly out ahhh

My last ever exam ends at 12.15pm Tuesday lunchtime. GTA comes out on Tuesday. Result!

Is it worth pre-ordering it? Would I really have a problem getting hold of an xbox 360 copy SOMEWHERE in town on Tuesday lunchtime???

RiseAgainst · 26th April 2008, 12:52 AM

its got rips online already aye

i doubt you'd have a problem getting it in town

also i dont like the fact its only Xbox getting any updates to it after release. kinda sucks to own a PS3 version

Had this game pre-ordered since 15 May 2007, it better be good!

Says on Amazon "Due to high demand for this product, we have sold out of our pre-order allocation for dispatch on April 28th", i would imagine that would take a hell of a lot of orders.

I've read on the net that they'll have problems meeting demand on the first day, but when I went to HMV to preorder, they said it was fine as long as I was only preordering the normal version, and not the special edition.

It looks a lot more gritty than before.
Does it still have plenty of humour? That was the best thing about the GTA games.
It's one of the only computer games I'm interested in these days.

They've started selling their second shipment on Amazon. Those orders get shipped on the 2nd of May apparently. The multiplayer sounds amazingly good, with over 15 modes some people are saying. I can't wait to see what the cops and robbers is like. Also during multiplayer the citizens go about their regular business and the police get involved too lol. 16 players. Ace.
