I can't wait to see complaints about the gameplay, etc in a few weeks.
Too much hype over a silly game, that about 75% of this forum, including myself, aren't actually legal to play it.

Yeah, 'cos then people will actually see it, instead of going into all these other threads, and I can't be arsed to post the same thing over and over again in the other threads.

According to reviews gameplay is amazing and gets 10/10 so I doubt I'll be bored.

I don't actually care that its coming out LOL. I've got a 360 just sitting there, aint been on it in ages &, to me, I could compare GTA IV's release to when they found out Pluto wasn't a real planet.

amazing...

I have to agree.

Wont GTA IV be the same as GTA III and GTA II and, in the future, GTA VIII or whatever it goes up too?

They cant really add much more to a game that has been basically the same since it started.

Elighten me?

Exactly, I don't give a flying **** if it's out of not.
What really frustrates me is the all the hype over a game. Even Halo 3 pissed me off so much, I mean why would you go buy it at midnight, or cry about not getting it ONE freaking day before the actual release day?
It's not like it's going to be any different to the other copies..

Same gameplay, different location, different number, different characters.

Supersam, they have totally redone the script. none of the crappy bits repeated over and over and over like in the others

gameplay is ALOT more reallistic

you can feel your this character as you start to like him where as i couldnt give a **** if the character from san andreas died.

in a way its had a total re-do

It's not an Anti-GTA IV thread. It's just that there's too much hype over this game, and the fact that there will be flaws to the game as it is more than likely to have aspects to the previous grand theft auto games, and after a while people will get bored of it, guaranteed.
Too many underage kids crying about not getting it ONE day before actual release.

Ok ive never played for more than like 10 mins and the storyline didnt really change gameplay from basically:

-Run
-Nick a car
-Run people over
-Get these people's guns
-Shoot people
-Run from police
-Get busted by police or wasted in process of finding a way to escape

And that seemed to be what happened every time I came back to life (not sure how death means nothing?)

What is actually different?

i agree they can wait
i agree they can calm down a bit
i agree they can shut their mouths untill they have actually played the game

but its gotta be ******* sweet. i have played this game since i was 4 (no negative effect tbh) and every single one has made me feel excited to months before release date.

GTA is a BIG series in gaming. without it there wouldnt be many of the games we have today. the hype is expected, deal with it for another week and dont get so annoyed.

Ok.

I just think for all those games out there exactly like GTA including the whole GTA series that multiplayer doesnt make it much different.

Oh but it does, it takes the ENTIRE single player map and puts it on MP.

It's in my blood to get annoyed, because it's just a new location with the same gameplay as all the others to me.
Just like how I was pissed off with Halo 3, etc.

What frustrates me is all the 12 year olds on here (no offence) saying, "OMG Y HAVNT I GOT MY GTA GAME YET!! OMG NOT FAIR!"


Oh but it does, it takes the ENTIRE single player map and puts it on MP.

That reminds me, I wonder how many are getting the game purely based on the multiplayer...

Breakfloor
28-04-2008, 04:26 PM
fair enough, im also getting annoyed with all the kids crying because they didnt get their game when they got home from junior school.


and i totally agree with you with halo 3

OMG ITS COMING I CANT WAIT

day after the release

I've completed it and would like that 3 hours of my life back.

I have the game and it's really good. I'll never get bored of it. Online is just amazing and fun, you fight round the whole city and you can get any cars and everything, even police can be turnt on. It's got 10/10 too so.. Yeah..

Hiro
28-04-2008, 04:33 PM
It's like COD4. There wasn't this much hype about that, there wasn't hardly any, but in my opinion, COD4 is probably one of the best console games to date.
It seems that most games that cause loads of controversy soon become lame.

I'm not saying that it's probably not a good game, I'm just getting annoyed by all the threads and kids crying over it.
But one is entitled to one's opinion, yes?
It probably is a good game if you're into the whole, steal a car, kill people, get chased by the cops, do side-missions etc, but to me it can get a bit repetitive. It's not going to stop me from buying the game though (it's always fun to shoot down some civilians to get the frustration and rage out).

Have you played the game? No..You don't know what flaws it may have, when you play the game then you can say what flaws you think it has but until then you can't just assume it's gonna die down just because of hype, the hype is so big because everything about the game is amazing, and it IS amazing, if IGN gave it 10/10 then it's definitly something big.

Just because you suck it doesn't mean it's the same as the others

The story is alot more in depth, you have a much more realistic environment, you can build friendships/relationships with the characters, if you actually play the game more then you'll actually see this, it doesn't just appear :rolleyes:

Pardon?

1. I dont own this game. Playing it at a friends for a short amount of time was all I could stand.
2. Nothing I said called for an insult.
3. IGN also gave Halo 3 a 9.5..... ratings from one source mean next to nothing

Im disagreeing with the view that GTA is an amazing series. Im not insulting you personally, so do the same for me.


Oh yea and... Halo 3 was a disgrace I agree.
It wasnt even worth the gamerscore to be fair.

Its a new GTA since about 4 years? What do you expect!
And with how gaming is now, it should be amazing.

But I think when the next GTA comes out, this game will be as crap as San Andreas is today :(

Actually this game is a lot better than previous GTA's. If I drove my car into the wall my car would have realistic dents etc, the wall would crack or whatever. The police don't just go after me, they don't actually arrest you for crashing into other cars on this one. If I flew out of my windscreen and went into another car the car would have my blood on it. If I had blood on my shirt and went next to the police they'd go after me.

And driving is like Forza, it's so good just like online.

16% Into it. ;)

Your rant is bull. You've not played the game, evidently. Probably why your arguments such a waste, no evidence to support your points etc.


CoD4's just the same as all the other shooting games. You just try and kill them before they kill you.

Would that be your anti-CoD4 argument?

Andeeh

Well why are u reading the threads if ur fed up?

dont read them

and tbh i wont get bored of it its got online this time

I've already stated that I haven't played the game, but there ARE bound to be flaws, just like every game.
It cannot be 100% perfect.
You lot just don't get what I'm trying to get at.
But why would I even care from a bunch of people that get so hyped up over a game?

I'm not gonna back down because I really couldn't give a **** what you think about me, so this thread can stay open for all I care.
Have fun ranting about me.

I mean, this forum is now trying to stop people from having opinions?
This forum keeps going downhill..

Exactly, I still play CoD alot, it's one of the best games I've every played right behind fable, I do get sick of online sometimes but if I leave it a day I can still enjoy it

The whole foundation of his argument is its been done before, which I don't quite understand.
Off his logic, we're allowed one game of each category.
1 shooter
1 football game
1 GTA-type game
1 racing game
1 RPG
etc. etc.

Hardly a convincing argument :rolleyes:

And people who are selling them in some cases. They cannot sell an 18 game to under 18s, but they won't care if you play it. It's to make sure they're not giving a way a game which the parents won't be too happy about :P

Exactly, apparently some idiot in Austrailia is saying that if parents allow underage kids to play GTA4 then it's a crime :rolleyes: I just wanna hit him, luckily I don't live in Australia, cut version of the game and that idiot

Most likely yeah. All people do is complain about games either because they think the graphics are poor, or the gameplay is bad and basically they don't like it.

Different people prefer different things.
