Wow, very very professional, I am impressed! Although, you mentioned that HDR can be used in combination with Bloom.....I thought it was always Bloom OR HDR, or was that just Oblivion? Smurf, it works for me!

Come on Rockstar, if Microsoft managed in 'Midtown Madness' years and years ago, there's no reason why GTA IV can't have it! Anyway, if they haven't put it in already, I'm sure it's too late! We'll just have to hope...

Jace, very very good idea. Did anybody play 'Cobra 11: Nitro' ? That recorded big events (crashes) from different camera angles and played them back to you after they happened. I don't see any reason why this couldn't be implemented in ALL platforms of GTA IV.

I don't believe those pictures show any kids, and I certainly agree, there's no reason for them to be in the game.

Maybe they're not GTA IV but that looks like one nice game whatever it is!

I don't find it that amazing, but good find!

I hope he'll be a true, cold, criminal. None of this wussy innocence like I got from the other characters. And guys...maybe "this time....things will be different" means "this time, the russian mafia won't try to kill me and i'll get away with all my henious crimes"??? Maybe!

Didn't GTA3 have steam coming out of some buildings? Or did I just imagine that?

I hope it's not got Vice City to be honest because I didn't like it the first time round -- Libert City was always the best!!

Predict the radio stations!! I think they'll all be pretty much the same stations as GTA3 (obviously with new content), and I'm hoping for a massive, seriously long talk station (what was it called again?) with Laslo!!!

The russian mafia is famous for sex-trafficking and the slave trade - they sell women AND children and in some cases steal babies to harvest cells to use for stem cells (seriously), so i don't think "sell people" is silly or innacurate at all.

I don't see the problem with animals....after all, you could kill animals in Oblivion.....and most of us eat meat.

You mean the s2000? no, personally I think it is more like the vauxhall.

Artur.....damn best idea I heard of recently, that would be cool!

I think more than likely it will JUST be NYC, but maybe the entire state - which is big! I would be knocked down on my face in shock if they included vice city in it as well. That sign could have just been an add.....perhaps this is what the "episodic content" will be.....or a link to the next GTA, which will be in Vice....again.....(please god no)

ARTIE ghostface, "first off the girl with the pic under her name ..ur a cutie =]" - :D hahaha, actually 'Jagoboy' is a boy....as the name suggests! it is deceptive tho, I'll admit.

As long as you don't think you're as "hard" as the unrealistically-hard computer game characters when you're still 4/5ft tall and have no muscles like kids round here do, then ok!

Well, the trailer showed us the grand church, monorail (don't know about subway), at least two bridges from the same island. I don't see why they'd take anything out.....only add things in!

They do look good, however does anybody else think the lighting is a little "too" golden? Reminds me an awful lot of saints row. Also, the graphics on that church in the trailer were....abismal at best. I hope it's still in Beta stage. However saying that, if it is (and I do honestly believe we've had this late trailer because the game still needs some work).....7 months isn't very long to get it all ready to ship out.

This is the place to discuss the location of the new game, how you feel about it, whether you think it might be too small/large, and whether liberty city is the only place featured. Okay, my own opinion, is that they've totally remade Liberty, it will probably have little if anything in common with the last Liberty City we got to visit in GTA3. As has been mentioned on the forums, the size of the real-life NYC (which is of course what Liberty City is based on) is enormous, and a full-size map of it would be far larger than any map already played in GTA. The city sizes in San Andreas were a bit of a complete joke in comparison to how big those three cities (LA, LV, SF) are in real life, and perhaps Rockstar have taken it upon themselves to try and recreate the cities as close as possible. I hope so, because I don't know how you all feel about this, but honestly, if the in-game map IS the size of New York, I'm going to be playing this game for years before I'm bored of it.

I was thinking.....if this russian dude is the main character....i wonder if the NEXT gta, let's call it "V", will take place in Moscow? OR across Russia, the sotryline being the guy's earlier life, either as him or some character relating to him in some way? ....Just a thought!

Yes, you're right, they do look remarkably similar, however the front end is a little more curvy in GTA, and there is no badge plate, proving that they are unlicensed, however as good ol' chris says, more realistic to real-life cars. Oh and I've just got to say....did you guys see how the suspension/shock absorbers worked in the trailer? I was amazed; along with the wheel effects as it accelerated.....man, can't wait to see that ingame!

I think the cars look VERY similar, but there are no badge plates on the front of the cars from what I can make out.
