wålf-kun has much to be proud of
Gta Iv

We're getting closer to the release of one of the most anticipated and, according to critics, best games this year: Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto IV. Now, I presume you've all at least heard of the GTA series, known for sex, drugs, violence and outstanding entertainment.

So, who are getting it? Release is April 29, and I've pre-ordered my copy for the PS3 a long time ago, and I'm really looking forward to it now! The reviewers are giving it 10/10 and full scores all over the place!

Here's the official website for you slugs still not sure if you're getting it or in need of more information:
Rockstar Games: Grand Theft Auto IV

And here's the IGN video review:
IGN Video: Grand Theft Auto IV PlayStation 3 Review - Video Review



(PS - why won't it allow me caps in the thread title??)

Caps = shouting. Not allowed, annoyingly.

I'll probably get this for the PC in some distant future, but I've never been a massive GTA player. I do like it, though, and this game looks so complex an massive it'll be hard to resist!

But it's ruining my abbreviation! Such a cruel world...

To me it seems you've both picked most unfortunate platforms, but I bet it's gonna be one hell of a game anyways

From what we've seen till now it truly looks like a game to remember and play for many years to come. The helicopter shot of Liberty City at night, e.g., looks so awesome I can barely wait...

Guess we'll get some more input once it's released and people can play it for themselves

I only saw a bit of it in trailer. There is this guy who comes to New York and is welcomed by his relative. His accent sounded russian, and also I see him shooting with a Kaleshnokav a few times.

I really like all gta games! This will be better than the already very cool san andreas. I think it is released on the 29. 4. 2008. this is the release date from here, but i don`t know the date from other countries. so tomorrow, i will buy it and try to find some cheats. normally cheats take the fun from a game, but in gta games it is different for me somehow. I will buy it for the ps3.

The only thing I hate about the game is that when fans love it so much that they try to make it win in every category game awards. Shietloads tried to make Saan Andreas win for graphics the year it came out. Obviously we all know GTA's graphics aren't too impressive. It is always pretty blocky.

Well, that does not matter. I actually also don`t want to do the missions. I want to do nonsense, like just shooting people or destroying cars.

Haha, that's pretty much how I play, too. Probably because I've never actually owned any of the games since GTA 2, though.

I miss the 2D games

you guys should really try playing the story this time It's apparently great and from what I've played till now (the status bar says 6%) it's truly awesome I also believe cheats takes some of the fun away, at least before you've beat the main missions. But of course - much of the fun in GTA is cruising around gunning and driving down innocent people...

PS - I saw in my first post that I wrote release April 27, that's wrong, release was today - April 29, worldwide. I've got my copy, and so far I'm loving it!

The protagonist is Niko Bellic, and I believe he's from Serbia. Thus he's fought in a couple of pretty nasty wars, and doesn't really hesitate to remove people he might find an obstacle

and "this game" refers to...?

Wouldn't bet my life it's any less violent at least, as for the graphics they're up a bit (to be expected from "next gen" I guess), but it really haven't captivated me yet... I haven't been airborne in night-time yet, though... Looking forward to that!
