Chris Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 *UPDATE*: I have uploaded the unwatermarked versions of the screenshots, which hopefully you'll find are a little nicer to look at. *UPDATE 2*: Added some very high resolution official artwork and better quality screenshots. Several gaming websites have all published previews of GTA IV today, all of them including some brand new screenshots, in addition to digital versions of all the screens we've seen in print over the past couple of months. There doesn't appear to be anything new said in the previews, but links to the various articles are after the screenshots below. Official artwork and new logos: Articles: IGN, GameSpot, GamesRadar, 1UP.com, C&VG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CroScorpion Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Pictures looks great! I wonder who is that guy on a last picture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciaran Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I am loving the brilliant views of Liberty City (Again). Great pictures, I wonder did all three sites plan to release these on the same day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted May 24, 2007 Author Share Posted May 24, 2007 Am I the only one who thinks the vehicle models don't look too good at the moment. I mean, this screen for example: http://www.thegtaplace.com/image.php?img=g...-auto-iv-07.jpg That car is way too shiny, and what on earth is going with the reflections (look at the doors). Hope this is fixed in the final game. Another demo glitch: http://www.thegtaplace.com/image.php?img=g...-auto-iv-09.jpg Looks like the car in front of the taxi is being sucked into the middle of the bridge! (That's the taxi in the middle, not the bottom of the screen) Sexual innuendo already: http://www.thegtaplace.com/images/gta4/scr...-auto-iv-06.jpg Sign reads "Cher Kov" which is pronounced like jerk off, a sign lower down reads "please BLOW HORN" But yeah those vehicle models and 'glitch' are my only concerns right now. Looking good otherwise. I wonder did all three sites plan to release these on the same day? Rockstar generally send assets (screenshots) to a number of websites all at once, so they have something to post with their preview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I don't have probs with the shining. Just the model isn't all that good. The grid for instance. *reading* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_91 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Well I wonder who the other guy is, Roman? He has some didersaches stuff on too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted May 24, 2007 Author Share Posted May 24, 2007 I highly doubt Roman is going to be a black man though, it could be the character in the artwork we saw of the guy laying on a sofa smoking what was presumably weed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaz The Great Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Pictures looks great! I wonder who is that guy on a last picture? I was also going to mention that he has on Didier Sachs boxers. Pretty nice looking sigs, people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Aaah, brilliance. Are these on a specific console? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaz The Great Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 If they are we are yet to know. I'd be willing to bet both consoles look rather similar, or we could possibly get different sets of pictures, y'know? Will have to wait until a few more months pass to see if we ever get separate screens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silberio Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Sweet screenshots. Actually, Chris is right with the red car, but anyways...its better than the other games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted May 24, 2007 Author Share Posted May 24, 2007 Aaah, brilliance. Are these on a specific console? Actually yes they are, these particular ones are from an Xbox 360 demo, which is what Rockstar have been showing to all these magazines and websites. But Rockstar will most likely also produce PS3 versions which they will show to the press, and we'll no doubt get screens that have come from that console too. Spaz is right saying both are probably going to look very similar. This is also supported by the fact that no website or magazine has actually put any emphasis on saying they come from a 360, suggesting that we probably won't be able to tell which console they've come from unless we're told.

The Bossman Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Really amazing shots, although there's still a long way to go before it's released, so they can get much more detailed than that. I particularly like the shots with water in them, that's what it's all about, and that's the level I come to expect of games these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gycu Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 (edited) The sky looks great... I like it`s blue color... Looks like is going to rain in one pic... I also noticed the Didier Sachs clothes, but that guy doesn`t wear a suit or a tuxedo...And also the Africa Pendant, the black rag and the dark shades... Looks like that guy took his clothes from different clothe shop from San Andreas, the black rag and the Africa Pendant aren`t from Didier Sachs that`s for sure... Edit: I looked closer and I`m not 100% the pendant is an African Pendant, the shape is similar but also slightly different... I`m sure that guy is probably from Africa because it has a flag ( colors : red/yellow/green ) on the belt, also the shirt has these colors and also the pendant ... Probably this guy is from Cameroon... I`m gonna research... Edit 2 : Lots of African countries have red, yellow and green on the flag Edited May 24, 2007 by Gycu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2003 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I now believe that there will be an African Gang in GTA IV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silberio Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 African? No way, my friend, if you are talking about the guy in the last picture, its a Rastafari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artur Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Nice screenshots, some new ones we haven't seen before. The last guy could be a Rastafarian looking at his belt but who knows? We'll have to wait to find out but still a nice little preview of GTA IV in screenshots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(That's the taxi in the middle, not the bottom of the screen) You do have to remember that the engine that render the game is not final, and so also for the vehicles. I know of at least one that was shown in the trailer that still had stuff to be done on it. About the "demo glitch", that is an interesting one. I don't think it's much of a glitch, and there is actually a slight chance they released that screenshot to so many magazines and online sites on purpose. I mean, they obviously look through the screens before sending them out, and you spot that clearly within 2 seconds. The guy on the left is likely Niko, and they could've gotten out of that car, climbed on top of the bridge, activated the free-aim camera and took a shot. So yeah, could be that they wanted fans to speculate you can even climb that good... Niko perhaps a former gymnast ?

So yeah, could be that they wanted fans to speculate you can even climb that good... Niko perhaps a former gymnast ? Heh, yeah maybe GTA IV is going all Prince of Persia style It'd be really cool if you could climb almost anywhere though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I've contacted Rockstar Games and asked if I would be able to get some high-quality un-watermarked versions. Just waiting on a reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate10 Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Great shots, a bit fuzzy, whatever. I'm feeling good again and thinking GTAIV is gonna kick ass again. That game and city looks so fu**ing fun to free roam around lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queenie Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I'm starting to get excited about this game now, the trailer didn't really hype me up to be honest but the screen shots have got me interested now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
