MishoM Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 (edited) Another enormous Grand Theft Auto IV advertisement is up in New York City today. The ad can be found at Greene St & Canal, New York City, and is the same picture that has been shown in many artwork pieces, including the dummy boxes shown to us not long ago. Here's a nice picture of the billboard taken at night: However, these billboards don't take five seconds to create, below are a few shots of the ad being formed: Could this be a sign that new information is coming our way? I sure hope so since we've been experiencing such a drought in GTA IV-related news. Possibly an update from the official site, new demo's for gaming magazines, who knows! Let's just hope we'll be getting something new soon. Altogether the billboard looks fantastic. I look forward to seeing more of these sprouting up around NYC. I also hope the next billboard uses some artwork we haven't seen, I'm getting sick of seeing that lady over and over again. Images taken from PSU.com.

MishoM Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share Posted November 2, 2007 Umm...we've known about this for a while now. See.... Well the advertisement is now complete. That and there hasn't been much news other than those sort-of interesting dummy boxes, so I though I'd post. If you don't want to read it, ignore it. ;] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patty-T Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Hey, there's a Bobcat and a Rumpo in that first pic. Oh no, wait. I'm confusing real life with GTA again. Anyway, it's cool to see some advertising up. Is this the first bilboard? I think I remember seeing something about another bilboard awhile ago.

MishoM Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share Posted November 2, 2007 @C Blood: No , this is the second or third billboard. I really hope more of these show up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't want to read it, ignore it. ;] Well when you put "NEW" and "GRAFFITI", I assume it's something totally different...and NEW. It's not new. It was done around the 18th of October.

MrLlamaLlama Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Read through that, a couple of splelling errors... tut tut... (jk) Anywhoo, I figure it'd be really hard to get everything in proportion... eh..not my job... ***Spot the joke in my post and win a prize!*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K9 Krew Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Ummm it is your job?? There are more pictures of the making of this in my topic if you like;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MishoM Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share Posted November 2, 2007 (edited) @OGTAM: If it has been completed, then it hasn't been posted at this site yet. So big deal if we post it? I called it "New" because it seemed "NEW," it was completed some time ago yet not posted at quite a few big-name GTA4 websites. It was also JUST posted at sites like Kotaku.com, and PSU, so big deal if we're all a little late. Jeeeeeeez. Looking at some of the comments, it's "New" to others as well. @MrLlamaLlama: I don't see a spelling error, care to point it out for me? Thanks.

MrLlamaLlama Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Erm.. use of 'are' instead of 'our' (just after the images) and 'showed' instead of 'shown' just before the images... No problem... The joke was, I spelt 'spelling' wrong... Look back now, and you'll see it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There hasn't been much GTA or GN'R news lately. :[ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read some where on this forum that it was finished. Read it around the 20th or something. Even so, why wouldn't you just post in the topic that was already posted? That would make sense.

Chris Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Lol wtf I thought this was new too, turns out they're all nicknormals photos (should've probably linked to his flickr at least, PSU.com have clearly stolen them, you can tell they're exactly the same). Anyway we should probably move this out of news, this is the stuff other GTA sites used as filler a couple of weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bossman Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Haven't had a chance to comment yet, I did when it was still being constructed, but it obviously wasn't finished. It looks nice, as you'd expect, but there should have been some projector lights underneath it to make it stand out, and as you said, we've seen the image countless times before. A new ad of the 2 police officers, or the sniper would look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MishoM Posted November 3, 2007 Author Share Posted November 3, 2007 It doesn't really matter if this is old news, some people might not have read anything about this anywhere else...

Righty Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 I can't wait for the game. I know I'll have money set aside for it. And offtopic, but I want that f150 in the first picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
