Patty-T Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 In the news forum Chris said," Could "IV" be something more significant than just '4'?". Which made me think that maybe IV could simply be the initials for the actual name of GTA IV. Could IV stand for "International Venue" or something like that. Share your thoughts. Hopefully the trailer will tell the true name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 I was actually under the impression that maybe the font meant something.....it looks more like the sort of font you see at an american university of baseball team to me! I don't know. Maybe IV stands for something like what you thought, perhaps 'In Vegas' or 'Idaho Vancouver' or 'In Vancouver', I don't know. Personally I think it'll be in London, that picture that someone posted on the forum of a boxshot of GTA IV with a UK flag, sort of to the side and with a couple characters drawn on it that looked pretty realistic convinced me, especially since it dissapeared from the forum a few hours later! Oh wait, I found it again....here it is in case you all missed it......I don't really see how it could have been faked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTAPlayer Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Got no fckn idea what it could mean... I just think IV means 4, that's it. But you never know, we'll see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I felt it looked a lot like a font you would see on a movie or game cover for an English movie, maybe, just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_91 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I felt it looked a lot like a font you would see on a movie or game cover for an English movie, maybe, just my opinion though. I agree to maybe they just wanted to make the title look a little better since al the GTA games. If oyu look carfefully youll see the likes of 'Vice city' 'San Andreas' will have a different font so in this game it will be the same except 'IV' will have a different font.

CroScorpion Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I liked the fonts in old GTAs and I think I gonna like the font in new GTA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_91 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I liked the fonts in old GTAs and I think I gonna like the font in new GTA. I disgree if your talking about the 'GRAND THEFT AUTO' font that will always be the same but the title under it like 'VICE CITY' or 'SAN ANDREAS' will always be different.

Gycu Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I don`t think GTA IV means something,it`s just a title.Maybe there will be 4 cities(GTA III --->3 islands) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harwood Butcher Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I think it looked more like the "Back to the Future" type font... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disgree if your talking about the 'GRAND THEFT AUTO' font that will always be the same but the title under it like 'VICE CITY' or 'SAN ANDREAS' will always be different. The pricedown font is what makes Grand Theft Auto, changing it would be a really really BAD idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only had the Pricedown font during the "III" Trilogy, so a change wouldn't be all that strange.

Jared Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 I mean a major change, like using a completely new font for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DareDevilX Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 (edited) I think that if IV means something it means that there will be four cities or four characters with four different stories. Also I don't think that London will be the city in GTA IV cause London don't border the sea and it would be very stupid to see the map limited by some kind of invisible wall or something.Maybe St. Petersburg could do.That could be connected with appearance of Russian mafia in San Andreas. EDIT:Still,England borders the sea so maybe it's going to be some kind of a fictional city based on London,if you know what I mean.

CroScorpion Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 When GTA 3 come out 2 more games come out after it VC and SA, together it makes 3, maybe after GTA 4 there will be 3 new ones and it will make 4 games together. But that can be just a coincident too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTAPlayer Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 That can be a coincident yes, or not. And yes, there may be a fictional city based on London you know, that's a strong possibility. But damn, I hope for Mexico City, Boise or Shanghai/Hong Kong/Tokyo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Las Vegas doesn't border the sea either but they managed it in SA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does not really matter they could just put sea surrounding it calling it the Thames seas, after all this game is sort of fictional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazza Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Well he does but, really could IV really mean something, i know maybe R* thought they might make a sign, that has IV in it and then show the world, and they might think of something more about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_91 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I cant see any other reason why GTAIV is just GTAIV there is no more meaning in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
