*** Grand Theft Auto IV - The Official Thread ***


Lol -

Point 1 - Xbox 360's break.
Point 2 - We dont need any DLC

(they arent making much of an argument here are they?

Point 3 - Play online for free (already paid and bought for)
Point 4 - DLC will come eventually (so much for not needing it)
Point 5 - 360 controller not as good (seriously? its twice as good!)
Point 6 - it belongs on sony - lol
Point 7 - hard drive space - whut, really?
Point 8 - ps3 dosent sound like a jet engine

No actual reasons why the game is better on the ps3 then, pretty good article for having zero content :P
 
As for what we'd like to see in the game, in San Andreas I was ALWAYS partial to grabbing the always spawning Truck from the docks opposite the garage, and the trailer from nearby and going trucking (This was after doing all the trucking missions!) Trucks with Trailers would be great fun, and amazing for a race! :D

Hard to get big 18 wheels around the streets of New York though. I too enjoyed the cross-country-ness of SA. :)
 
I wonder what res this will be rendered at internally, if it'll be like cod4 and not be true 720p.

I don't think so, I'd actually prefer that to be the case though tbh, it's what helped make COD4 so smooth, and hardly anyone was bothered about the lower internal res, why kill the frame rate when you can lower the res and have a much smoother game, 99% of people don't notice the difference anyway, but allot more people notice slow down.
 
Surely they can't ban you if you legitamately received a bought and paid for copy early - it's the retailer that has broken an agreement, not you!!!

I'm sure R* would have a moan at the retailers, but some of these supermarkets are so big that they really don't give a stuff. Don't you remember a few years back when a few top name sports brands tried to stop them from selling their trainers etc cheaper than other retailers?

Yea I guess most of the larger retailers dont really care but it would be interesting to see if they did decide to pursue the case, MS/Sony/R* Vs Supermarket A/Game Retailer X. But yes I agree they will be hard pushed to punish the end user but you never know, theres so much here say and BS floating around the net to do with the release of this game its getting crazy.

Im going to try and intercept my order at work tonight, chances are pretty small I get it, but you can but try, one advantage of working for Royal Mail. :>

I always found it odd that people criticized CoD4 for not rendering internally at 720p, especially when it looks a lot better than almost any other games out.
 
I think I'll be picking up a loaf of bread tonight. ;)

Maybe the people who get it early 'legit' should start another thread to talk about gameplay - if we put a BIG spolier alert in the tilte it will keep those of you who are happy to wait until tuesday from seeing it.

Can a Don confirm that woudl be ok - we can provide pictures with bread to prove we bought it legit... sales receipts even ;) (with competitor info edited out obviousley!) If it's ok then I want to see some interesting variations on the bready theme :p

Probably because these consoles were marketed as hd gaming consoles (and free 4xfsaa in all games for 360) and clearly exceptions are being made. Though more in the way of the 4xfsaa being total bs with the exception of a handful of games. :eek:
