Here you can talk about anything and everything Grand Theft Auto IV in anticipation for the release date.

I'd recommend you check out the IGN review – 10/10!

Anyways, I've been a huge fan of the GTA series – Vice City being the best! – And I'm honestly hyped-up beyond belief for this game. I know for sure that this game will take many hours of my life away, but I'm sure it will be worth it.

Anyways, the first thing I'm going to do is just explore the city and get used to some of the new game mechanics before I even touch the story mode. Once the story mode is 100% complete, and that means no deaths, find all the packages/jumps etc. then I will try out multiplayer, which looks fantastic.

Discuss.

Yeah, the forum has a lot of GTA threads right now, but I expect that with every major release.

tuesday will be the day that sandbox games have waited for. it looks amazing, first thing ill do is the first missions prolly. blow some cars up. find a hooker have my way with her, then kill her. just like old times. GTA has always been a favorite series of mine since the first one. GTA III revolutionized it, and i think GTA IV will come close to perfecting it. so many good games coming out this year, but this is deffinately in the running, and prolly one of the top contenders, for GOTY.

I can honestly say I have no idea what I will want to do first. Everything i've seen so far looks amazing and I can't wait til Tuesday. I might just get used to the city and see everything it has to offer first, but yet again i don't know. I guess I will just go wherever the Liberty City roads will take me.

I simply cannot wait for this game. By a stroke of luck, I think I have Wednesday, Thursday, then Friday off from school as well. Boo-yah! Ever since GTA:III and GTA:Vice City, I've been a huge fan of the series. Looking at the various reviews that are available it looks like we can expect another blockbuster title!

One thing does worry me though. The image below is said to be taken from the Xbox 360 version of GTA:IV, and it looks like a real glitchy sequence. I've seen a few gameplay vids on the Net, and haven't seen anything this bad in regards to pop-ins, and I hope to never experience it. What do you guys think?

That video worries me too, but let's just hope things like that rarely happen.

Can somebody confirm if there is a optional install on your hard drive or not.

you guys think in the multiplayer Free Roam mode, two people will be able to get in the same car and pick up a hooker and run a train on her? I think it will cost a few more hundred dollars but thats nothing a baseball bat cant handle!
