Grand Theft Auto IV


Recommended Posts

oh no... not any "console exclusive" crap...

i pray for them to get it out for the PC.

Or even mac lol, but this will be a big dream only i guess :D

Glassed Silver:mac

I'm sure it'll come on PC just like the other GTA's

Wish it came on the same day also though :pinch:

*cough*360*cough*

I know it will be released for both but I still believe the PS3 version will have more features than the 360, I don't think the PS3 version will be toned down to match the 360 standards, I think if anything the 360 version will come with multiple discs.

I'll be buying a 360 soon for a few games coming out, including this one. As for GTA4, I think Detroit would be a wonderful setting as the #2 ranking for most dangerous city this year with Flint, MI being only ~ 1 hour away and being #3 on that list. Since 1995 Detroit has been the most dangerous city 4 times! The next closest cities are St. Louis, Camden, NJ and Gary, IN with two nominations.

Not to mention that Detroit is also the most dangerous metropolitan area!

They should redo London:1969, or Japan/China/Hong Kong would be cool too.

What I don't get is, they have the release date exactly set, but no screenshots or anything? I'm guessing it will only be a small thing like another 'Stories' since it doesn't seem to have been in the making for very long?

GTA San Andreas was released in 2004 - Id say it has been in development for quite a while now.

And if you think their first next gen GTA is just another 'stories' you deadly wrong!

(well, I wouldnt know, but I hope so :p)

LOL. Have you seen the comparisons of the two consoles? They're pretty much the same in terms of graphics, and I really really really doubt it'll come on multiple DVD's.

Am I missing something... or was Vice City not GTA4?

Here how it goes:

Grand Theft Auto 1:

- Grand Theft Auto: London, 1969

- Grand Theft Auto: London, 1961

Grand Theft Auto 2:

- Grand Theft Auto 2

Grand Theft Auto III:

- Grand Theft Auto III

- Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

- Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

- Grand Theft Auto Advance

- Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories

- Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories

And then "Grand Theft Auto IV" series, that will be released sometimes this year.

Shouldnt it be:

Grand Theft Auto 1:

- Grand Theft Auto 1

- Grand Theft Auto: London, 1969

- Grand Theft Auto: London, 1961

Grand Theft Auto 2:

- Grand Theft Auto 2

Grand Theft Auto III:

- Grand Theft Auto III

- Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

- Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

- Grand Theft Auto Advance

- Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories

- Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories

It was rumored to be in London, I hope its not personally, I'd much rather have it located in North America, but who knows maybe they will surprise us and let us travel around the world in the game? Blu Ray sure has the space to do it.

I really really hope they dont just make the game bigger for the hell of it. GTA:SA to me just felt quite empty and I would have been quite happy with a map half the size as all that unused terran was just an extra 5 mins in travelling time. Unless they add some missions of a grand scale unlike those in SA I dont think the game world needs to be any larger. I'd rather more missions and more detailed environments than larger game maps. More detailed and just more indoor environments would help a huge amount too.

I felt vice city had a better balance. The map felt more intimate and getting from place to place wasnt such a time consuming task where you often would leave something for another day because you didnt want to spend the time travelling to another town.

The series could easily allow you to travel to overseas city if the developers wanted to mix it up, afterall crime is transborder and international. They almost could have done it on SA with you going to the airport buying a ticket and ending up in a Tokyo or London esque style cities. But even in SA I thought it was a good mix of cities from the Suburbs to the Ghetto to Las Vegas to the open country side.

i think it would be great to have a seperated city, with a mass of water in between, basically non swim-able, you could swim it but it would take you about an hour lol, and have car ferry which everyone uses and a airport where you can get a plane or drive yourself.

and another thing, i hope theres snow, would be great to drive in snow.

    • I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.
    • I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣
    • Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.
    • This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
