It's the 5th time actually GTA1 GTA3 GTA Advance GTA LCS GTA IV GTA2 wasn't set anywhere in particular so was just referred to as Anywhere City. I'm one of the people hoping GTA V == Miami (a revamp of Vice City - similar to how GTA IV's LC was revamped)

Yes most likely. That's a pretty decent machine you have there.

GTA4Mods.com recently managed to score an interview with Coolie Ranx, best known among GTA fans for playing the part of Little Jacob in Grand Theft Auto IV. There's a number of good questions that were asked, and some interesting answers from Ranx. On how he got the part of Little Jacob: Read the rest of the Q&A over at GTA4Mods.com Thanks to Alan for the heads up.

Requesting a permaban from the aftermath of a heated argument? Pathetic, not gonna give it to you I'm afraid. We don't hand out bans just for the sake of it, we ban people who deserve it. We're good people here. This has gone way off topic though so I'm going to close this. I don't think anything of any importance will ever be posted if left open.

Hmm it's ok. If the rest of the album is supposed to be better than I'll get it just for the sake of it anyway. Never been a huge fan of Metallica but yeah, I'll listen.

Damn, I'm more of a cat person than dogs. But that is excellent. Think I've seen it before but yeah. Awesome dog is awesome.

Ok well I think this topic has rapidly descended into a cess pit of fail. Closed.

Dude try ebay, seriously.

I've watched a bit of everything really. Needs more women's beach volleyball though I hope China top the medals table this year. I don't care for any other country than GBR but I'm just tired of seeing the USA top every damn time. Boring as hell. Good to see lots of world records broken so far, especially in swimming, I'd also like some underdogs win some medals though, that's always good.

I think you're definitely going to need more RAM. At least another 512MB, but preferably an extra 1GB or more if you can afford it. Processor is fine, graphics should be alright too I suppose, at that res anyway.

Yeah of course you can. I would also recommend Corsair for RAM but it's not necessary. Would all of you wondering whether or not your PC will run GTA IV well please now use this dedicated topic as it would be a lot more sensible to keep it all in one place. Thanks. You can continue normal discussion of the PC announcement here of course

I've made this topic because we're getting a lot of people asking us whether or not they'll be able to run GTA IV on their PC, and if not, what should they get, etc. No official requirements have been released yet, but by looking at other recent games we (or rather chris82) has produced this spec list - I think it's probably about halfway between the minimum and recommended specs. Windows 2000/XP/Vista Intel Core2Duo E4600 / AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ 1GB of RAM (Windows 2000/XP)/2GB of RAM (Windows Vista) nVidia 8xxx series/ATi 28xx/38xx series UPDATE: 30th October 2008 - Official specs now released, topic has been updated, see below for specs. Minimum System Requirements OS: Windows Vista - Service Pack 1 / XP - Service Pack 3 Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.8Ghz, AMD Athlon X2 64 2.4Ghz Memory: 1.5GB, 16GB Free Hard Drive Space Video Card: 256MB NVIDIA 7900 / 256MB ATI X1900 Recommended System Requirements OS: Windows Vista - Service Pack 1 / XP - Service Pack 3 Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad 2.4Ghz, AMD Phenom X3 2.1Ghz Memory: 2 GB (Windows XP) 2.5 GB (Windows Vista) 18 GB Free Hard Drive Space Video Card: 512MB NVIDIA 8600 / 512MB ATI 3870 So if you're not sure you'll be able to run the game, just post your specs here and I or someone else who knows what they're talking about will answer you, and if necessary tell you what you should get in order to run the game well. You might also want to post your monitor resolution that you'll be planning on playing at.

Most forums suck, including this one

This is going off topic but you do realise you don't have to buy off itunes just to see album artwork. You can simply right click any song and "Get Album Artwork". Or if there is none just add it manually by dragging an image into the artwork space.

I'll probably buy the box version simply because I can't be arsed to download 6.5GB. And boxes do look quite good on my games shelf. But Steam is pretty awesome though, never any discs to worry about etc.

I asked this question to R* when I was in New York (about IV being released on Steam). I may have mentioned this in the TGTAP feature article but I'm not sure so I'll say it again here. The response I got was along the lines of "well I'm not sure, but seeing as how we've got the whole series now on Steam it's likely we will release GTA IV that way too". Only thing is we have no idea if they'll immediately release it this way or perhaps wait a couple of weeks/months? Wouldn't have thought they would because there's no point - just a possibility I suppose. @Gycu: They're usually "leaked" out. SA was anyway because we were the first site to get hold of them (yay first for once!) and they turned out to be legit. I'll have a quick look to see when that was in relation to the release date. EDIT: Whenever websites receive preview copies of the game. Which I'm guessing is gonna be in the next couple of months...

So I'm just wondering, how come you made this topic here? Funnily enough you'll probably find more GTAF members at GTAF... you know? Presumably they have some sort of sig re-enabling topic there. Couldn't you just post in there?
