No planes in GTA IV. We’ve been grounded – Todd_Easter
Yeah, I was disappointed when I heard this too. But now that I play, Im not missing it all that much. Would the game be enhanced with planes and parachutes? Yes. Am I playing happily without thinking about the missing planes and parachutes? Yes.
I enjoyed all the empty space San Andreas had. It was a nice break from the Urban Environments. Nothing like driving in the desert as the sun set, while listening to Free Bird. Some of the Desert and even the mountain/forest area were just cool to cruise through. Made it actually feel like it was a real world. -blading2001
I couldnt agree more. Completely disheartening to know that enough chuckleheads needed constant action to whine about ruined my ideal of fun. If you were out in the middle of nowhere and smashed your ride, YOU SHOULDNT HAVE SMASHED YOUR RIDE, ASSHOLE.
I still remember my most guilty pleasure from GTA3 I would use a cheat where all peds had weapons and they were also hostile then i would just sit back or drive around and watch the carnage i still remember when this one chick in a skirt wasted a cop car driving by with a rocket launcher -shyguy5454
I liked gambling on horses. Still do, in fact. I also suggest filling a bus with gang members and driving it off Mount Chiliad. They scream like little girls one by one as they get off the bus into a free fall. Hilarious.
What’s your favorite radio station? – Kyoot_Hilly
My stats claim Journey as my favorite radio station. I listen to Radio Broker, The Jazz Stations (Fusion particularly) and Journey. Journey gets a bad rap, but I think its great driving music. It doesn’t drown out the sound effects and the voices of NPC’s. Also, if you are in a cab and change the station, the way Niko asks is great; “uhhhh, I don;t want to be trouble, but can we listen to something else, my friend? I WANT to HEAR Juuuuurrrrrney.”
Which version are you getting? I don’t care DLC because Im sure all versions will have some sort of exclusive downloadable stuff in the future. – HazzardUSS
Though the XBox Achievements looks pretty cool, I decided to run with a PS3 for a few reasons. Blue Ray DVD player for my new 52″ Flat screen, the friends I want to play with have PS3. (Save one important exception whos lady friend thought systems were the same and got him an XBox. Hes not unhappy though, we’re not Sony Fanboys or anything) im familiar with the controller, and I am pretty interested in PSHome to drop round Christmas.
Detailed chronology of your plans for 4/29/08. Go. – the_future420
8a-5pm = work
5-5:05 = 2 bonghits
5:05-6pm = Around the Horn and PTI
6pm-7pm = Dinner (Homemade Chinese food)
7pm-11pm = Nap
11-11:30 = more bonghits
11:30-Mid = BlockBuster for game
12:15am-8pm Tuesday- GTA:IV and bonghits
I took Tuesday off of work to play the game all day. Also, I pre-ordered the game at BlockBuster. I showed up 10 minutes before midnight. Was first in line. Meanwhile Gamestop, less than 800 yards away had a line of at least 100 people. A lot of stores re-opened at midnight, yet all I heard about was Gamestop, like the game was better from there or something. I even got a free picture frame with Nikos picture inside.
New driving, Buy or Sell? cause it seams like the diving gets knocked the most and IMO the driving is great and much improved over past Gtas -jewbacca32
Ill be honest, I was worried it had ruined the game at first. Now, I legitimately enjoy the challenge. Its better than SA for sure. Makes racing on-line fun, also. And it is the main reason I now consider GTA no longer a game, but a simulator to avoid police capture. Combine realistic driving with better cop AI, factor in the tactics you need to use to lose the cops, and this is no longer a game in my eyes. BUY.
It is absolutely incredible. I mean .. It’s so amazing that I took a cab to my next mission, it was like an 8 minute ride, and I didn’t rush the cab driver (thats an option). I just stared out the window and appreciated a living, breathing city. Sorry, but just had to get it out there. -Albino_Ferret
Taxis are great, they let me get to your destination in the amount of time I desire, with no hassle from the cops, while I learn about the city as I’m packing my bong! Romans cab service is better even, because the poor guy astutely ridicules you for the entire trip!
For us Eastern European guys, GTA IV is heaven Finally a game we can relate too.. seeing the Albanian mob in the game is awesome! San Andreas sucked balls.. worst theme ever -Negativiteen
In GTA 4, Game plays you! Finally, a poster of someone other than Vlade Divac on Serbian bedroom walls everywhere. Congrats to all of you.
The TV shows in GTA IV are amazingly funny. Such creativity, you can actually sit there and watch them for a long period of time haha. -Babedlam
Republican Space Rangers, for the win. When they shot the tentacle off the purple octopus with the light bulb on his head offering peace, I almost fell out of my chair. My friends and I have a controller rotation going. I get three mission attempts, safe house to save, watch TV while we all take a bong hit, hand the controller to the next man for his three missions. The TV keeps us all well entertained.
GTA4: Brucie or Patrick. I can’t decide Which character do you like more? -Orangepeel
Brucie is irritating. Packie seems to run things effeciently, plus I feel like I am part of his family and he’ll never turn on me. Patrick, in a landslide.
Do you stop and pay the tolls in GTA4? I did at first, now I just haul ass and outrun my wanted level. Eat that toll booth guy!! -OKSteerChalupa
Yeah, Im embarrassed to admit that I do.
I like squeezing to the front of the line and honking at the bastard standing at the open gate.
What’s your PS3 multiplayer name? -Nizbart
Metacognitionist. Feel free to add me to your friends list, anyone.
Stay well in Liberty City, all!
