I might not, waiting on reviews to see how it is,
I know they removed a bunch of features that were in SA, like buying clothing, eating food, etc, which is irritating.

I'm only renting it, never thought the series was worth buying ;)

Although I'm probably in the minority here that wouldn't like the series.

As of right now I do not plan on purchasing this game, I never really got into them just used them to drive around in cars. I always thought the story in the games was not worked out well.

IMO, if you're not getting GTA4, it would be like not buying Mario 64 back in 1996. And even moreso since GTA4 is a multiplat, giving you a better chance of owning a system that has it. This will be one of those once-in-a-generation, can't-miss games.

At the moment, I don't have any plans to buy it... I guess it's hard to explain to all the "hardcore" gamers, but it really just doesn't appeal to me all that much.

However, if it gets really good reviews, I'll be sure to at least try it out.

You're a Sopranos fan and you're not gonna give GTA4 a look? I guarantee you that since they're including a New Jersey borough, there are gonna be a bunch of Sopranos-influenced storylines.

:lol: I think that's different. I need a dramatic reason why you need to bash someone heads in. Not because you had a bat and it so happens a guy walked pass you...

I can't get it now cause I'm consoleless.

I'll probably be too busy playing Spore.

But I will get it. no doubt about that.

Ever play a GTA game? The main storylines are often the strongest part of the game, and their plots are critically acclaimed. There's a reason for everything you do within the main story. They're not going to have you bash someone's head in with a baseball bat unless there's some purpose. And I'm talking about relative purpose, obviously, since there aren't a whole lot of legitimate reasons for doing something like that.

And besides, in the Sopranos, you can get your head bashed in simply for looking at Ralph Cipharetto the wrong way. Numerous people have been killed throughout the series simply for being at the wrong place at the wrong time.

I'm definently getting it, but who isn't getting the most hyped game of the year (if not of the current gen)?jharv

The Sheep won't be playing GTA4. You know why, Nintendo has refused to join us in the 21st century.

What? That doesn't make sense.... Even if you call the Wii a Gamecube with a wii-mote, it's still a 21st century machine since the Gamecube came out in the 21st century

You know, I find it funny how people are demanding that everyone buy it because it's obviously the most important game of the gen. Lemmings said that about Halo 3, Sheep said that about SSBB and Super Mario Galaxy (which every self respecting gamer should buy by the way ;)), and Cows will say that about MGS4. GTAIV may be multiplat, but that makes it no different. It is not more special, it is not the messiah of gaming, it is not single handedly the best game of the entire generation (SMG takes that). I'll probably buy it by the end of 2008 or rent it, but I'm definitely not buying it any time soon. It looks like a great game, but not worth a purchase from me as of now. GTA games have always been pretty low on my priority list.

I'm not getting it because I've already got my most anticipated game of the year - Brawl. I might consider going back to reality in 2009.
