Picking it up tomorrow for PS3 along with probably half the planet. IGN gave it a perfect 10.

Is this going to come out for the PC too?

It will come out for PC. Just not very soon.
You can blame PC gamers for PC gaming to be in such a pathetic state. Too many people steal games, instead of buy them. The slightly more difficult level of pirating consoles, plus the much lower entry price, make developing on them the clear choice right now. I'm actually going to be responsible with GTA IV. I'm not buying it right now. I keep buying games and not playing them. I have a stack of games I haven't beaten yet. Maybe I'll pick it up on the cheap a year from now. It looks awesome though.

You're being responsible and not buying a game being called "the best since Ocarina of Time"? You have far more will power than I, sir.

All I have to say is:
Online play. I will probably be picking it up either this week or next week. **EDIT** And who picks up Grand Theft Auto games to beat them? Honestly, I havent beaten 3, Vice City, or San Andreas. I just buy the GTA's to have fun going on killing sprees with unlimited ammo and health.

True Meynards. Usually though, I just let one of my brothers do the story mode. Then, when they aren't playing...I go on my hooker killing spree.
It will be interesting to see the online portion...the GTA worlds are always huge and I think its only up to 16 people at once. |

Maybe he did it because he was excited for the new game?

I picked it up from Wally World last night after work. Not bad, so far. It's nice that instead of an ordinary street thug you're a Russian street
thug. The accent makes all the difference.

I'll get this eventually, but GTA series has never really been in my most wanted games list.

Pretty awesome game so far. Its basically just like GTA:SA, with much better graphics, tho. So far ive found there are no taxi/police/fire/ambulance
missions. (unless they have to be unlocked somehow). Also, no graffitti tags, or hidden idols etc either. There is a "faction" system tho. To keep
relations up with the various characters you have to do things with them, like go to clubs, or play darts, etc. If you turn them down, you lose faction.
Also, just sitting and watching the TV in the first safehouse is hillarious. :) More thoughts to come as i get further along Gadin |

I heard there is a 'pigeon killing' side mission where you have to shoot 200 pigeons. So that's kind of like the tags/idols. Probably more than
that.

It took 4 dates for that Michelle chick to put out. Prude. But at least she doesn't ask questions when I pick her up in the flaming wreckage of a stolen
Corvette.
Also, I highly recommend putting the subtitles on because trying to understand what the hell the Jamaican is saying while you drive his mission nearly made my head pop. Not that the subtitles were much more intelligible, but they at least help. Definitely liking it so far. |

They really did a great job with the storyline. Very smooth, almost movie-like. The voice acting is actually pretty damn good. I expected the usual cheese
voices that games have. You can really tell how much time they put into the cut-scenes. I think im at 43 now (tracks em for ya in the stats page). Top notch
game in that regard for sure.

GTA has always had awesome voice acting. Definitely one of its strong points.

Fed,
Hah. Michelle put out on the second date for me. I guess she just didn't like you. Mind you, she hasn't put out since then. Constantly mad at me since for some reason. I even let her win at bowling and pool and she still hates me! Although, she thought my stolen convertible was a really nice car. I gotta say, this is my first GTA game and I like it. Some of the driving chase stuff gets slightly annoying but I'm getting used to the driving so its improving. |
