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

Blista Compact is by far the best car, reasonably quick and the handling is great

Plus its easy to do the 360 reverse turn in it, which impresses a few people in Multiplayer ;) :p
 
Did anyone else who's got to the Times Square-equivalent place stop and stare at the screen for a while? This game continues to amaze me.
 
But why would you need planes in the first place? Who ever flys from one location in a city to another?

Me? I always used to spawn a hydra in SA just to even fly from one point to another on the same island.

The police helicopter is pretty good for getting around fast, but i'd still love a plane.

Never know, since they can add additional content through xbox live it could still be possible.
 
Anyone else GTA looks very blurry and very unlike the video here - http://www.gametrailers.com/player/33469.html, i cannot understand it, the shadows look to have very jagged edges and am afraid to say do not look at all impressive, whereas on a friends SDTV they are crisp and sharp, its as though the game thinks i'm running at SD and upscaling it all.
I am using a Dell 2407 24" screen, Xbox is set to 720p, and have never had this problem before, anyone else experienced something similar?
 
Forgot that getting arrested takes your weapons away.

Now I have no money, and no weapons :( need to get some cash before attempting missions :D

Have you already grabbed the weapons that are lying around the map? I'm not sure if they ever respawn but I've picked up a pistol and a bat pretty close to the starting safe house.
 
Well if they both have the problem, i think i'll skip both versions and just wait for the PC version.:(.

You may have a while to wait. It hasn't even been confirmed as coming to PC and considering R* didn't release their last two major games on PC either then they could well be moving away from it as a platform.

Probably looks blurry as you are letting the Dell upscale it from 720p - unless you are doing something really daft and running it in a box in the middle of the screen.

Can you not run it at 1080 - either interlaced or progressive - the xbox will do a better job of upscaling it to 1080 than your dell does, I bet.

Bah it's ook, but like a honda CRX with some VTEC y0. But pretty poor top speed if I remember.

still great handling though, bit like a go kart.
