Game comes out tomorrow.

28 sites have averaged the game at a 9.9 and is the ONLY game on IGN with a perfect 10.

Needless to say, I'm pretty excited to pick this game up.

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

Playing free mode multiplayer with 15 friends tonight and I cannot freakin wait. Multiple rating sources are considering this one of the best overall games in the last DECADE!!!!

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

Can wait for it either, I have it reserved so I'm going to pick it up from Gamestop at midnight. Earthquake, out of curiosity how come you don't like it?

You're definitely one of the last people I thought would say wasn't into GTA.

my nipples explode with delight!

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

ZOMG. I'm so calling off work for this game. I'm going and picking it up at midnight.

why is that?

[quote=EARTHQUAKE2689;445525]why is that?[/quote]

Dunno. It always seems like the guys that enjoy sports video games, also seem to fall into the realm of guys who like FPS games.

GTA is kinda FPS + Open world Sim. Seems appealing enough.

yeah i play sports games only a few adventure games ever caught my eye. I might rent it to see what the fuss is about.

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

Man you guys are really lucky. I have to wait because I still don't have a next gen system and I can't afford it atm.

Like the real world as GTA portrays it? Video games are training for the real world i thought.

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

I always run out and buy the new GTA and play around with it for a few weeks and get bored. I can never get through very many missions, I just like to cruise around mowing people down and seeing how many cops I can get on me. This new one does sound pretty bad ass though.

Pretty much lol. Ever since I graduated from high school things have changed drastically.

Duh. I'm always out shooting hookers, taking their money and running over cops.

If you aren't doing that, then you just aren't living.

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

I'm in... will have Niko on my front porch when I get home from work this evening.

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

This will be my first GTA experience, other than playing at friends' houses drunk, so I hope it can live up to the hype. My first Halo experience this year turned out to be a little underwhelming.

same here, so much so that I ended up selling back my copy

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

I'm kind of appalled by the themes involved in the game. You guys are all adults so I mean whatever. But I wouldn't let my kid touch this game with a 10 foot pole until he was 16 or so.

I totally agree. Games these days take on some very serious adult themes. Not kid friendly at all. Whenever I hear some little kid talking trash on COD4 I just cringe and wonder WTF their parents are thinking.

me too. Way underwhelmed.

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

Going to buy it now!!!

GTA has become the only game I play. Played San Andreas to 100% (not an easy feat), then returned my XBox when I realized it was the only game I really played.

But I'm back in the show today! Gonna pick up an XBox, GTA IV, the criminal pack...

the 360 or regular

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

Is GTA 4 even available on the old systems?

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

ps3 and 360

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

My copy was just delivered here to the office. I will be playing it up this evening on Xbox Live. This game is rated amongst the highest EVER and should be a good one. 25-40 hours to complete the single player and a host of side missions to boot.

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

I've played my copy since I got off of work. No disappointments. If your a fan of any of the GTA games you will love this one. Its quite a bit more realistic than the previous also, especially crashes. I recommend it.

I love how when I crashed at a fairly low speed into a building, I lost 1 headlight and the other one worked. The front bumper was a little shaky but not completely bent up.

Pretty minor detail, but I thought it was interesting, instead of how in past-gen games, the car would just smash up, no matter what rate of speed you were going.

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

xbox versions been online for two weeks already (rslog, demonoid, etc)... sorry no one mentioned it earlier.

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

I has anyone played the online multiplayer yet? I've been so overwhelmed by the story mode that I haven't tried it yet. I'm kinda confused of what it consists of.

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

I wanna hear about the online multiplayer, can you team up with a buddy and wreak some havoc?!

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

I found this info online about it.

I had that problem once but I bought an extended warranty from the retailer so I was able to get another without any wait.

Re: The Grand Theft Auto IV Thread
 

this is the second time mine has broken. xbox extended the warranty for 3 years for this problem, so they'll fix it or send a refurb. one free, it just takes about 2 weeks.
