Earlier this month EGM claimed to be publishing an all out exclusive on GTA IV. We are now being notified that EGM's journalists were invited to Rockstar North's offices in Edinburgh to get a first time look at the new game. This is basically a privilege to EGM since they are the first an only for the mean time. They are also set to get an exclusive interview with CEO, Sam Houser. The issue goes on sale March 11th. Should be a great read for days. Read more here

Recently, Next Generation was able to get an interview with NaturalMotion's CEO Torsten Reil. One of the topics was the new "Drunk" apsect of the physics behaviour engine (Euphoria). He commented that this was a recent add-on to the game to give it an even more realistic experience when gamers play GTAIV through the eyes of Niko. Niko would react just like how any real life human reacts when a certain amount of alcohol is in their system. This is yet another area Members of the NaturalMotion's team explained how the engine worked: The interviewers were also shown examples of the other games such as BackBreaker (football game) to reall let them understand the shear gravity of the realism of this engine. They also continued by discussing other newer engines they are currently working on. In the end, what does this mean for us? Well the team at R* have really planned to make this game as real as possible and are doing a fine job at that. Source: http://gtahq.multiplayernetwork.net/news/332/

hmmm apparently, better lock this up quick.

HotDevil666 came across a stunning discovery. The company that does Facial animation services for the GTA series has GTA V listed in its future plans. Here is a screen shot: I can't even comment on the accuracy of this but it's food for thought. Check out the Image Metrics page for the listing.

yes that's right rockstar asked all websites to take the video down since it's not officially released. not saying that it might be but anything unofficial is not allowable for distribution.

ldavid has made a great discovery among one of the screen shots of GTA IV. There will apparently be high flying aircraft in the game. Check out this frame capture.

Rockstar has been in all force showing off GTA IV to all game review sites out there. The Vice President of Product Development, Jeronimo Barrera has admitted that the game is a class above the previous games such as GTA 2 and GTA 3. Kotaku, an online gaming review blog, has described the game as A One Man Army. This comes in reference to the shot when Niko blew up a helicopter with his rocket launcher. Here is a quote: Check out their full review here

No probs mates....yes it is a great country... should come by sometime and visit.

God no...he is gonna jump on R*'s case again. Im sure. So where is the catch...I mean the game is gonna be pretty much violent and bloody, how did the Aussies allow it to slip. I mean, ya I know VC and above went by without hindrance. Maybe their level of violence is a bit higher than what we think. I don't know honestly.
