Chris Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 It is almost too good.It's the little touches I'm loving. When you change radio channel Niko leans over and does it in the car. Piswasser beer. The TV shows. The brilliant way they've reacted to the Hot Coffee nonsense from San Andreas. The number you text to find out what song's playing.The only bug I've found so far was after playing multiplayer for a while, when I dropped back into single player Niko had a totally different set of clothes (which should have been unavailable to me) and was heavily armed (I had no access to guns at the time). Everything else was the same as my single player game before. Once I re-loaded my saved game it was fine though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diesel Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 You couldn't make this shit up...I finally picked my copy up from Blockbuster today.I went the store and as I appraoched the counter, there was an older guy there, hopping from one for to the other expectantly, whilst the wummin was on the phone."It's just ringing out" she said to him..."Ah, answerphone" she whispers to the guy..."Hello, Mr Diesel, it's Blockbuster Bridge of Don here, you haven't picked up your copy of GTIV despite repeated calls from me.

I loved Liberty City but didn't care much for the rest of the series. Fair to say that I wasn't as rabid about the release as some folks. Maybe I should have done the decent thing.However, if it's any consolation to the guy, I got home, fired up the 360, stuck in the disk and it wouldn't read it.After much fucking and cunting and any other swear words that came to mind, my wife casually picked up the box and said..."Issss is fur the PS3 ye neep!!!"Fortunately, being fucking minted, I have both (daughter has a Wii) - what a flash caaaahnt!!!!

framheim Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 i just about ended myself last night when we were playing multiplayer. highlight was trying to jump out of a helicopter onto the top of the empire state building and inevitably missing. takes a long time to hit the ground from up there chris' spectacular arrival at the meetup point on the armoured truck/bombing the boat mission was pretty good too.

Chris Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 chris' spectacular arrival at the meetup point on the armoured truck/bombing the boat mission was pretty good too.Better than my jump off the freeway onto the warehouse roof placing us right beside the gangsters during the cops 'n' crooks game? Or my rocket into the rapidly oncoming police car that vapourised all players in the game after that?Haven't laughed so much since the knives only COD 4 game that was anything but.As a side note for others, if someone declines a game request it means they're busy playing a game already not just waiting to be worn down by more game requests every ten minutes.

And don't get me started on Jack Thompson - however, one of Destructoid's reviewers got a good one on him when they interviewed him on the phone for their podcast.JT: Wouldn't you agree that games like GTA4 encourage violence amongst younger people such as yourselves?DT Reviewer: I don't know, but I know i couldn't kill anyone without auto-aim.
