Gotta to agree with you Hunter, at least with the previous versions.

However, with Online Multiplayer coming with GTA4, that's too good to miss.

I'd get GTA4 just for the Free Roam MP functionality.

GTA:SA has (i think) modded MP to it in the PC version. Was a blast playing it on a server with over 100 ppl. :p IIRC, the whole SA city was accessable.

Have fun with it, though.

Funny thing is, GTA4 is really going out of its way to create "reality" in a sense. If you read a list of features, you'd be surprised as some of the thing you will see. Things I would normally expect in a sim.

I'm looking forward to GTA4. Which is saying a lot because I despised all of the previous games with the exception of 3. (Hey lets make the same exact game over and over again and pretend its totally new!)

What's this, a popular frat dude demographic game series that i'm actually looking forward too? It can't be!

After you've had a large vehicle and gone tearling around the game world, well, not much else is there.

You said it in your post. Thats what makes the game fun - you can be a bad dude and get away with it.

Man i was soo good at stealing cars and getting away from the cops sometimes stopping and taking them out, until they sent in the helicopters then i just headed for my Homies crack house to get the brothers to back me up!

Yeah i was one mean badass:rotfl:

Am I the only one who sometimes follows traffic regulations?

I once drove from one side of San Andreas to the other whilst doing that and it took me almost an hour

Yeh, I do that at times... then I go into roadrage and blow up half the city.

Yeah I did that a couple of times. I tried to drive from san fierro to san andreas without damaging my car or killing anyone.... nah only lasted a couple of minutes guess i'm just impatient

Kapitan_Phillips · 03-31-08, 09:35 AM

Well when some idiot in a taxi plowed into the side of my customised hearse, I got out and smashed him in the face with a bat. Does that count as roadrage? :hmm:

Na, that's just GTA etiquette.

To be classed as road rage in GTA, you need to kill the Taxi driver and the destroy/kill anything/anyone with in the same block radius, preferably using the RPG or Minigun.

Hmm, I wonder if you can do a Vinnie Jones from Lock Stock in GTA4. Car doors make wonderful weapons.

Nah this one is on it's way. According to this site http://www.gtagaming.com/ the BBFC has awarded GTA IV an 18 certificate without making any cuts whatsoever

.

It's comming

It looks cool, but I got a bit bored of the same style gameplay after VC! The series has come a long way since its 2D ancestors!

Spoon 11th · 03-31-08, 01:36 PM

I am possibly getting it if it gets ported to PC.
San Andreas (I call it the gang ****** city violence simulator) is in my top3 of all time best PC games. The other two are MS flight simulator 2004 and SH3. I just recently completed it 100%, again. Took me five months this time.

Have it on pre-order. Thought i will not get my hands on it till a week before im due to deploy, So i will have to wait 6 months to really play the game.
