GTA:IV-ever
April 28th 2008, 21:28 CEST by CheesyPoof Talk, play, bitch, whatever. The game is getting A+'s and 10/10 all over the place, including the tight wads at EuroGamer. We must also strike while the iron is hot to organize any PC play sessions, 360 only, sorry Bob. And doubly sorry to PC only gamers (sorry Dum). |

I didn't pre-order. I'll just walk into Best Buy and pick up one of the eighty billion copies they'll have stacked in a heap on the floor. Lady, people aren't chocolates. But you know what they are, mostly? Bastards. Bastard-coated bastards with bastard filling.

Count me out. GTA:SA sucked balls, and I haven't really seen anything all that great about gta4. You need to watch the Gametrailers review then. Me buying it the picosecond it arrives on the PC is pretty much a given, but seeing it in action there has really got me jonesing for it. Droolworthy stuff. MP3 Of The Week: Too many projects!

To all of you who are going to be playing this before I can: I hate you! That seals it, definitely getting it day one. And no preorder for me, it's faster and simpler to just go to Future Shop. This shouldn't be like Rock Band that was supply constrained. Witnesses in the house heard Jones say "why did you pee on me Pooh Bear?" A few moments later, the witness heard the son say "Mama you done stabbed me."

Looking forward to stories of kids murdering to get this game. Hey, wait... "Action stars of two decades ago shot .44 bullets out of their cocks. Honestly, if me and Charles Bronson were in the same room I'd kill myself just to make sure he didn't hurt me."
|
|
I can't say I'll buy it tomorrow, but I'll try to get it sometime this week. And then update my 360 to point to the current router. At which point we can all get our murder and prostitution beatdowns on. |^^^^^^^^^^^^ |||__

Usual fear mongering article is out already. <Hugin_len> Basically, cheesy doesn't have awful taste in music, he's simply very white.

Eh, I don't know when or if I'll get around to the multiplayer. But I am getting excited about it. With Gametrailers saying you'll go long stretches without ever dying and Eurogamer saying it only takes around 12 hours to unlock the full map, it sounds like the frustration should be lessened. I've got it preordered and paid off; since I basically work in a mall, that was the easiest way. "I don't like story in games." - Soren Johnson

I'm not looking so much forward to GTAIV. Because I haven't been watching trailers and reviews much. The self-imposed media blackout is to make the time until I get the damn game survivable, and so far I'm juuuust about scraping by without collapsing in a heap of glee. With that said I've preordered it from some crappy place to save money and don't expect it to arrive for another week or two. But that's okay, I'm not in such a big rush to get it nownownow (due to the precautions described above). I will play it online, but probably not with any of you because you're all limited to the wrong (so wrong…) geographic locations.

The multiplayer modes sound like a lot of fun. I want to play cops and robbers already. "the concept that a happy worker is a productive worker is hardly an entry from Matt's Big Book Of Things The Fairies Said." - Dum

I work in an office building connected to a mall by a skybridge. So I can just walk down to EB (and the food court) on my lunch break. It's nice; I take the elevator down to 2, walk down the hall, and suddenly I'm in Nordstrom's. "I don't like story in games." - Soren Johnson

Attention: After viewing the extended review video at Gametrailers I'm leaning towards buying GTA 4. Reasons: With the improved graphics the world finally begins to be compelling for me. A lot of the environments they showed seemed...grounded. Solid. Shooting seems notably improved over previous versions. While the narrative is clearly still quite violent, it feels like the game is less jackassishly sociopathic this time around. "Bioshock, sadly, is no Painkiller." - BobJustBob

Yay! Shadarr, re: your misplaced post. I spoliered myself on the review Dum linked, and they said you'll keep your weapons after death. I think you lose them after arrest, though. Regardless, they said the game is easier and you won't be dying as much. <Hugin_len> Basically, cheesy doesn't have awful taste in music, he's simply very white.

My god, Cheesy:this thread :: Jibble:his baby Witnesses in the house heard Jones say "why did you pee on me Pooh Bear?" A few moments later, the witness heard the son say "Mama you done stabbed me."

I'm sorry? I'm too busy changing the thread's diaper to get that. <Hugin_len> Basically, cheesy doesn't have awful taste in music, he's simply very white.

So in honor of Shadarr's goal of sports'ing up this thread, I found out that the Flyers are playing at home on Wednesday night, the same time I'm going to the Phillies game. Should be fun. And by fun I mean annoying until my car is actually parked. Then it should be fun. |^^^^^^^^^^^^ |||__
| こんにちは | ||'|"\,__. |_..._...______===|=||_|__|...,] (@)'(@)"""*|(@)*(@)*****(@) |
|
All those stadiums are in the same complex, right? I remember reading that about the Philly sports scene. So, do you think the Sixers can take down the Pistons? |
|
They should show the hockey game on the big screen. Assuming it's sold out, there should be no issue. And then all the poor sods stuck in a baseball game will have something to watch during the 5 minute breaks between pitches. Witnesses in the house heard Jones say "why did you pee on me Pooh Bear?" A few moments later, the witness heard the son say "Mama you done stabbed me."
|

Yeah, they decided to keep it all in one place. Might not be so bad as I believe the Vet is now a giant parking lot, but who knows. I'll just leave work earlier than I had planned. As for the Sixers, well, if they play like they did the first half last night, sure. But they can't let Detroit get those second halves. |^^^^^^^^^^^^ |||__
| こんにちは | ||'|"\,__. |_..._...______===|=||_|__|...,] (@)'(@)"""*|(@)*(@)*****(@) |
|
Sounds like what I'm seeing in this series vs. the Spurs. |
|
Only you're down 3-1, where the Sixers are in a best of 3 with Detroit. |^^^^^^^^^^^^ |||__
| こんにちは | ||'|"\,__. |_..._...______===|=||_|__|...,] (@)'(@)"""*|(@)*(@)*****(@) |
|
Yeah, but I meant having a good half and then letting the other team back in after halftime. |
|
Popavich making better halftime adjustments? Inconceivable! Coaching doesn't matter! Witnesses in the house heard Jones say "why did you pee on me Pooh Bear?" A few moments later, the witness heard the son say "Mama you done stabbed me."
|
|
D'Antoni not developing a bench? Absurd!!! |
|
Yeah, I haven't been very excited about GTAIV but now that it's here I am ready to play it for a week or so. Finished No More Heroes the other night, which was a much better game than Killer7 but not quite as good as Killer7 overall. |
|
I have GTA IV preordered and paid for. I fully expect to kill some 'Crappers online this week! |
|
I'd kill you, but you are too far away. "Action stars of two decades ago shot .44 bullets out of their cocks. Honestly, if me and Charles Bronson were in the same room I'd kill myself just to make sure he didn't hurt me."
|
|
eh, it looks pretty good, I'm sure I'll get it....someday. but I've never been a huge fan of the GTA games. Crackdown was more my speed. "Testiculos habet et bene pendentes" - "He has testicles, and they dangle nicely."
|
|
I'm just glad I'll finally have another this-gen sandbox game. Ever since I sold my 360 I've had to do without. I miss physics. :( "I don't like story in games." - Soren Johnson
|
|
If only you could've kept your 360 and continued to play great games with crappers. Oh well, no use crying over things that can't be changed. Witnesses in the house heard Jones say "why did you pee on me Pooh Bear?" A few moments later, the witness heard the son say "Mama you done stabbed me."

I managed to bribe someone to get my 360 copy early last thursday (Beer and a Parma!). I've been playing it off and on since then. I skipped vice city and San Andreas, although I watched housemates play through most of them. Played a heap of GTA3. So far I'm really enjoying the game. What I have seen of the city (still on the first island) seems really solid. There's rubbish bins and such on the side of the road, an appropriate amount of people and cars and I haven't noticed much repetition in the buildings or textures on the buildings. The city looks very detailed and "dense" so far, more so when walking rather than zipping by in a car. The driving feels exactly as I remember GTA3 feeling; kind of floaty at the start, then you get used to it and fly around. I'm playing the censored AU version. Not sure what they have taken out really, there's a huge amount of swearing and a whole heap of violence. I really dig the way you can turn off the story progression at any time and just run around exploring. |

What do you mean "turn off the story progression"? "I don't like story in games." - Soren Johnson

#46 by BobJustBob What do you mean "turn off the story progression"? One of the main ways story gets pushed at you is through your mobile phone. You can put your mobile into "sleep" mode, effectively halting the story progress. |
|
That. Is. Awesome. My favorite part of GTA has always been finding the packages and stuff without a guide. My wife likes the missions so, save a few where they were too hard (I'm looking at you, Zero), I get to just do what I like. |
|
Are people waiting for the PC version because we're assuming eventually there will be one, or has it been announced? |
|
I too shall have GTA this week. With any luck I can complete Crisis Core by then. Funk. |
|
haha, PC |
|
The only people who will wait for the PC version are pirates and PC zealots. Witnesses in the house heard Jones say "why did you pee on me Pooh Bear?" A few moments later, the witness heard the son say "Mama you done stabbed me."
|

PC gaming is deader than Abe Vigoda. |
|
I'm holding out for the PC version, which they definitely are making because it's either that or I'm packing a sniper rifle and taking a trip to Edinburgh. MP3 Of The Week: Too many projects!

I will buy GTA 4 this week too. But I have never, ever beaten a GTA game and I've bought them all. The missions become so freaking hard I end up just driving around kicking up dirt. |

Had a conversation with a Scientologist today. It was so illogical that I just listened. Man, human nature is so strange...we'll believe anything. Anything. As long as it promises a profit at an incredible expense. |

Great. Now everyone's chillin' in the lounge playing GTAIV. "Gaggle doesn't believe anyone should bother gaining skill in anything because anyone could gain skill in anything if they just put the time to it." - BjB

Dumdeedum (#54): I'm holding out for the PC version, which they definitely are making because it's either that or I'm packing a sniper rifle and taking a trip to Edinburgh. I'll carry your ammo crate. For some reason I thought you were FROM Edinburgh. Dingle (#57): Had a conversation with a Scientologist today. It was so illogical that I just listened. Man, human nature is so strange...we'll believe anything. Anything. As long as it promises a profit at an incredible expense. Were you wearing a Guy Fawkes mask at the time? |
|
It'll be, like, a year. The game won't be impressive-looking anymore. You will feel oddly unsatisfied. You will regret your current way of life. "Gaggle doesn't believe anyone should bother gaining skill in anything because anyone could gain skill in anything if they just put the time to it." - BjB
