Grand Theft Auto 4

are there any GTA 4 fans out there? if so start a discussion!


5..4..3..2..1... GO!

 

Aw man. I wish I could play it again. Last summer, it was in my 360 and it broke for no reason. D:

But for all you fans with Xbox Live/PSN, DLC is coming soon.

 

cool!!!!!!!

 

It's an entire new expansion, the character is the leader of a biker gang that showed up in a few missions(Drug deal mission, the one where you worked with a dude and he just disappeared). It's his story, and you see Niko and other familiar characters along with new ones. New weapons, areas, characters, cars, etc. are gonna be in it too.

 

sounds interesting man do you know a specific date on when it's supposed to come out

 

Same day as Street Fighter IV, February 17th.

...

O_O NEVERMIND! IT WAS PUSHED FORWARD TO THE 9TH! O_O

 

awwwesoome!

 

I enjoyed it quite a bit. We got a great single player in exchange for no fun sidequests though.

It's Xbox only.

 

Boring game was boring.

 

I was hoping for that. But it sucks for PS3 owners. =/

 

Zack is just butthurt because he'll never be an alpha male like Brucie.

 

it was good but the hype is way too huge
GTA IV is not the best game 2008 >:
i had more fun with vice city than with any other gta including this
although 4 comes in second definatly

 

Yes, you got me. It isn't about the terrible story that makes no sense with a character who hates killing then goes and mos down fifty people. Nor is it about the pointless choices about killing two characters you don't care about that have the exact same result anyway. Nor is it about the repeatitive missions that were 'drive here, shoot this group, leave.' Nor is it about the so called amazing graphics having worse load graphic load times than the actual load times of the original Resident Evil. Nor is it about the cops who are baffled and lose their perp when he takes a left turn or goes to sleep. The game contained everything needed for a bad game and lacked the fun. Why did it get 10/10's and GOTYs?

 

I didn't understand why it was given 10's. In my opinion it was a solid 9 because although you're right it was repetitive as **** and didn't have any of the things that made the old games fun I still had a blast just racing through the streets and shooting *****es.

 

I can do that in Saint's Row and Crackdown and have more fun. Hell I can do that in terrible GTA clones and still have fun. Thatt doesn't make the game a fecking 9.

 

GTA4 is a solid 9. It had a decent story, fun online, great graphics, change of gameplay was necessary and worked out great, and it had some memorable characters. Probably not as wacky as the other GTA games or Saints Row, but it was still good.

 

I played it once at a friend's house and I really want to play it again. Once I get a bit of money I'll buy it for my 360.

 

While that aspect of the story was a bit iffy, it's still the best story GTA has had to date, while it did get a bit melodramatic

Spoiler

the end was still good. I picked the ending were Romain died, but while his Hey Cousin phone calls got annoying, not having my ring me made the game feel dead inside...almost empty, i was weird, I started to miss the annoying ****er

totally agree about the all 10's. I personally agree with NRA and say a 9.

 

i own a ps3. is there really difference in the xbox version?

 

I completely disagree about that. GTA: VC and GTA SA plot were perfect for the series. Absolutley ridiculous. They characterized the characters the way the player would most likely play them. Specifically for VC, a psychopathic killer who wanted the world to burn. You couldn't do anything fun in GTAIV because it tried to keep that story about it. And sure, you'll miss those two at the end. But no matter what choice you make you can't talk to either so wtf is the point? It was exactly the same for every character you chose to kill. GTA is not meant to have a serious aspect or be over-dramatic, it just doesn't work when right after the drmatic scene you're going to start laughing and drive on the sidewalk. The more ridiculous these games the better.

If it was rated on our scale, I'd give it an average. It wasn't good and fun and a gurantee'd good time like gaming is suppossed to be, it wasn't anything to push the gen forward, it wasn't anything new, but it wasn't cooomplete sh*t. It just was an average GTA clone.

For starters it's the only version getting the DLC. Second, the screen doesn't look so damn dark.
