Cadaver

Don't worry so much. This game is gonna be good. Relax.

Is it just me (perhaps it is the way the sunlight is hitting a wet ground) but is the ground covered in a thin layer of snow? Look at the pavements on either side.

There's a good boy! There's a good boy! DOG LEGS!

I absolutely hated the multiplayer in SA. I do hope that IV will give us a chance to roam around with friends - double the chaos.

I guess that'd be kinda cool. I hope they include a number of new cars. I'm bored of the repetitive models they've used throughout the playstation 2 era.

I think it may be like all other GTA games. In the previews I've read, the authors talk about being able to pull a rocket launcher from your "pocket"! Perhaps this is an indication that the game is much like the others in the sense that weapons can be pulled from no-where with no apparent method of storage.

80% complete! Are you serious?! It's supposed to be out by 29th April. How will they fill in 20% before then? I have actually heard that the game is complete - 100%.

I would really like to see some gameplay footage. Other than that, I'd rather wait for its release than have too much info spoiling the surprise. Personally I don't see why they can't release it sooner! But that's how it is!

Once I've pushed people around a bit and got into a good shootout, I'm gonna dial 911 for the fire service. When they arrive I'm gonna jack their truck. Then I'm gonna pick up speed and see what happens when you slam into pedestrians - hopefully with the new physics engine they wont simply fly over the top of the vehicle like a piece of paper. I really want dead bodies to fly through the air and skid on the floor in a crumpled heap! Perhaps I'll try reversing over the bodies - hopefully they'll move with the motion of the tires. Once I've had fun with that I'm gonna test the intelligence of peds; I'll walk up behind some of them and shoot them in the back of the head - hopefully the crowd will give a realistic response. When the ambulance comes I'll take it and run over the paramedics and start a "paramedic mission". When I've got patients into the vehicle I'll drive like a maniac. And when the Liberty City day draws to an end, I'll enjoy the sunset....beautiful!

Aparantly you can now push people. If the traffic has been revamped, I'm gonna try and push people out in front of speeding cars. This probably wont work as I wish, though. If not I'm gonna try the new driving physics, then go on a shoot out, start fires, blow s**t up, blow some more s**t up, go for a swim, climb a building....ah, who knows how it's gonna turn out. I might just decide to go for a nice ride around town!

Cool! Did he get torn apart? One thing I have found with GTA games is that the size of the jets and other planes have never really been realistic in relation to the character. Even the most massive jet in SA didn't really seem a realistic, true-to-life size. Oh well....

It'd be the greatest news to hear, but I doubt it's true. I've seen all kinds of release dates from all different stores: some say that it will be released in early March, some say a few days before the official release date....

I doubt it'll be bursting with new information. PSM3 and GamesMaster have already covered it. The only new aspect will be the interview with Sam Houser. I can't wait for the reviews of the game - that's when things start to get interesting!

One thing I have noticed about GTA is how they keep the cars looking similar. Some cars in SA looked the same as they did in VC and III. I really hope they introduce quite a variety of new vehicles.

Yeah, that's really annoying. Traffic must be improved. Indicators would be a good thing.

Well, yes, it was a bit of an exaggeration about the motorcycles - but you know what I mean. Realism is good, but if its too real it would perhaps be annoying. If you're not experienced on a motorcycle you might find that you constantly crash in the game which would undoubtedly sap the fun from it.

I haven't got the copy of GamesMaster at hand for me to quote, but the preview said something about a dashboard view that will be available in cars - happy days!

I really don't think it will disappoint. GTA games never have. And besides, even if it isn't that great, we'll still get some enjoyment out of it because of the new physics engine. It's gonna be good!

I just hope that the cars handle well. The last thing I want is a great game with cars that handle as they did in Driver: Parallel Lines - that'd really suck. What I really hated about Driver: Parallel Lines was how the bikes handled. You'd turn left, then try and turn right and it'd take a few seconds for the manoeuvre to be made leaving you crashing into a car. At least with all previous GTA games that included bikes, the handling was light and responsive. Lets hope they continue with that trend.

Two months is like two years when waiting for this game. I guess I'm worried that it wont be all its cracked up to be. A bit like assassins creed. But, as someone rightly said: "when have R* ever disappointed us"? Quite right.

April 29th seems like such a wait. I haven't really been keeping up to date with R*'s progress on the game, but I don't see why the release date has to be in late April. I have heard that release dates in March have been considered. Does anyone have any views, ideas or info?

I think it was like the planes in GTA 3 - one flew over but you couldn't fly it. Well, actually, I suppose you could fly the dodo, but you know what I mean - there for show.

Cool! I think it's a good thing that R* haven't included flyable planes in the game. I think that would sap the realism out of it. I really hope we will be able to fly the helicopters to the height that we could in SA - now that'd be great! I remember when I first got into a plane in Vice City. I was gutted at the height they allowed you to fly - I could jump higher! I hope a helicopter journey across the city takes a while in this new game.

I tried logging onto the site the day it opened and as I did my computer crashed. To fix it I had to turn my computer off.

Lets hope so! That may be a cinematic image, though. I haven't, as of yet, seen any in-game footage....
