  1. ps3_player I think you just comprehensively listed every single artist I would NOT want to see songs from in GTAIV, thankfully, I don't think any of them will be. I'm hoping for some local NYC music, and perhaps small-time metal and rock bands, just to make it seem more real-life, big-named bands are too expensive.

    EDIT: Oh, apart from slipknot, they'd be fun, but would inevitably lead to too many in-game killing sprees :D

  2. If you want the game on release day you're gonna have to pre-order - I remember trauling round the shops for SA when it came out and ended up having to order it from amazon :(

    EDIT: My god pushups are difficult, ah well, another 5 now.....joy

  3. Yeah cos that's funny....

    Including the internet in the game was no way what I ever expected.....although I've noticed all those people that never believed email would be in the game have gone quiet now.....:D

    They say it's going to be massive, I can't picture what they'll actually put in it, of course I'm hoping for porn but that's probably unlikely, maybe a fake ebay, and other places to spend your cash? Like exotics in scarface? (kudos to the guy that originally started the thread on wanting exotics in GTAIV)

  4. Because that'd be fun, yeah, big time.....

    shaunw, you can enter a lot more buildings apparently, but not all (I think that's what rockstar said), i just hope there's a wider variety of insides of buildings and objects inside and textures etc than there was in SA.

  5. Jace, that's amazing about the discs thing!!! woah!!!!!

    Alienware, lol, if you'd actually bought the system you wouldn't be copy+pasting in the ignorant product blurb and the price range, I mean seriously dude!

    Here's my brand new supercomputer:

    -able to perform 12.3 trillion operations per second

    -intended to continue the advance toward matching and eventually surpassing the computing capacity of the human brain

    -covers 9,920 square feet of floor space

    -weighs 106 tons

    -from $110 million

    Sky, a lot of that depends on your case, what case have you got?

    Righty, yeah mine goes there sometimes, well maybe not above 60C but yeah I worry too!

  6. Can anybody actually justify why I (or anyone else for that matter), as a happy XP user, should run out today and spend £160 whatever on Vista?

    As far as I can tell, ALL it offers is DX10 built-in, which is useless at the mo, and other than that a lot of side-effects that I don't want.

    Why don't they make an OS that approaches it completely differently - so take "ports" on the internet, being treated way differently so as to completely eliminate hackers, and no funny background-programs, nothing can run without you double-clicking it, nothing can wire itself into any startup thing, only what is read-only by the OS originally, if you know what I mean. I wish they'd think of that......but then again if they did, MCafee, Norton, and the rest would be out of business, so maybe they make the OS's unstable for a reason?

  7. Maybe we could have cars that we can buy - if they get really damaged we can have them repaired and they'll like spawn at safehouses or something, but if someone bazookas it then you've gotta buy another, or like you can right your car off and have to buy another.

  8. Well if you've ever played True Crime NYC you'll know just how stupidly big central park is.

    But I think they'll have large construction sites, maybe waste tip sites, stuff like that - have a look at Bronx and East Bronx on google earth and you'll see there's a lot of dirt ground there, whatever that is, I've never been to NYC either.

  9. To those that think they heard something about food and gym being taken out - that was a made-up report by a turkish XBOX360 magazine that doesn't exist - rockstar have said nothing on food and gym, but looking at the screens, at least food will still be in it, hopefully the gym as well! :D

  10. Not necessarily, because if they can't sell it in high-street stores across the US, they (might) loose a lot of money as people acquire it illegally, and as a result don't release it. Then again they could release it for sale from their website only (like you'll pre-order with them and they'll send the games out across the USA) which might make them shitloads of cash. But can you imagine the number of pre-orders that have already been placed with the likes of Amazon?

  11. shaunw, can you imagine how dull GTA would be if Rockstar thought like you? (No offense). They put things in the game for fun and realism, you can hardly say "oh no sprawling countryside so that's it, take out all 4x4s, SUVs, hummers, dirt bikes.....oh and no sand? right, take out tanks and anything military....talk about over-economising dude. Of course the sanchez and probably more will be in GTAIV, not all GTAs have to be the exact same you know, just accept it'll be a little different and for god's sake, it WILL be better than SA. It's a simulation of city life! If you like the sanchez that much go out and buy Microsoft Motocross Madness 2 (trust me, it's fun)!

  12. Well it was up in a town near countryside and here the roads are windy and bumpy so they need rally cars to keep up in chases, it's pretty insane, I think to drive one of those you need to pass a test where you need to average 90mph from one side of the country to the other (obviously with lights and sirens) at night.

    And I would love to see a firetruck with hydraulics, or its own custom paint-job down the side lol

  13. I think two things (about this topic, not just in general):

    1. There should be more people about the subway

    2. There should be masses of security and police, just like in real NYC subways, given all this terrorist stuff

  14. Driving through a town in the countryside yesterday (in real life) I saw a Subaru Impreza police car with spoilers (seriously), so I love the idea of modding ANY vehicle, because if you pay someone to do it, they'll do it. If you think it's stupid, don't do it, but may as well put it in the game.
