Title: so, who else is struggeling waiting for GTAIV, and whos attained it early (UK)
Post by: mrlee on April 28, 2008, 05:52:23 AM
i cant take it anymore. Theres people who have got this on the saturday just gone and i cant find any shops that will sell it me early cause they are all nobs.

ive phoned everywhere i can think of that isnt too far to travel n ive had no luck at all. I wouldnt of minded waiting till tommorow, i have it pre-ordered at a cheap price, but then i found out via email, they didnt ship it today to arrive tommorow. They ship it tommorow so it will most likely arrive wednesday, i will have murdered someone by then.

Who else is in severe pain in waiting for this?

and who knows a way to get it NOWWWWW (in the voice of the girl from willy wonkas chocolate factory movie)

It's just another game...

What I heard is that some people got it early by mail because there was some mistake, no store has the balls to break the street date 'cause it will get them in serious financial trouble.

But I will admit that the Euphoria technology the game is using is pretty cool

I'll be able to get it at 10 tonight when I get off work.  I know the girl that works in the electronic department at Wal-Mart and she'll usually slide me a copy of what I need (in return I'll generally buy her a beer at the bar at a future date).  It's a sick and dirty operation, but it keeps me 2 hours ahead of the rest of the people.

Ever heard of torrents? Half internet has been palying the game since last week. And yes, it is the best GTA  and there is still so much to do even with missions complete, it is huge :peace:

I'll be getting mine tomorrow after work. I can't wait. It'll be awhile before my other games ever see my PS3 again.

Been playing it for 3 hours now, pretty fucking fun.  The online games are kickass.  The dude at Wal-Mart was saying that there is a $5000 fine PER game if they got caught selling it before 12:01 AM on 4/29.

I've played about 8 hours total and I can't put it down. The game is incredible. There's so much to do and the city is so immersive.

Game of the Year for sure.

How would you compare it to San Andreas?

Like comparing getting kicked in the nads for 2 hours straight to having sex with the entire playboy 2008 monthly centerfolds at one time.

I personally hated San Andreas, this game owns all.

I've been waffling on getting it, or waiting on it.

I'm in the middle of like 4 or 5 different games at the moment...

But I have a sneaking suspicion that I'm going to pick it up this weekend.

And I have both a PS3 and an Xbox 360.  I think I'm gonna pick up the PS3 version as I hear that the graphics are just a tad better.

that's a small tad i think :P check this out, it's a head to head comparison with a dude telling the small differences http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFLkArK3c7s

mommy's telling me i can't afford it :'( might visit my friend later :hihi:

Oh, for sure...it's a very small difference.

But EVERYTHING else being equal...and given the fact I have both a 360 and a PS3....I figure I'll go with the version that's considered "better", even if it' just by a small tad.

Also, my PS3 is hooked up via HDMI.....my 360 via component (it's an early rev of the console...about 2 or 3 months after launch...so no HDMI on it).  Again, a small advantage but an advantage all the same.

Anyone know if GTA:IV supports the new dualshock for the PS3 (as in, is there rumble?).  Just wondering.

ps3 version is best.

why?

xbox 360 has some frame rate issues with the game. And the online game is very much a big fun factor, with xbox360 your gonna have to pay for xbox live and get milked, whereas on ps3 online play is FREE  :D

But also remember........Xbox360 is going to have some exclusive downloadable add-on missions and such coming out in the next month(s) that PS3 isn't going to.

Well, I came home last night to find that I had the decision made for me.

My wife and I had been talking about picking up a new Sony video camera.  My oldest has just started T-ball, and the school funtions are starting....and our old Canon Hi-8 camera is a handful and a half...not to mention a pain in the kiester to transfer to DVD.

So...you're asking what this has to do with GTA IV?

She decided to pick up the camera, yesterday, at circuit city.  Decent sale going on and we had a 10% off coupon, to boot.  While there...she decided to pick up GTA IV for PS3 for me. 

I played for a few hours last night....and I'm sucked in but good.

the hardest part to get used to is the car driving and the aiming IMO, also the camera view while driving is fucking with me sometimes but you get used to it pretty quick anyway

Yeah, like all of these types of games...I find the camera can get wonky sometimes and screw things up.

The aiming and driving thing drives me batty sometimes.  Sometimes it's super easy....again, I think the camera angle that you "get" effects how much adjustment you have to make, and thus how hard it becomes.
