Overhyped and overrated series, more so than Halo.

Just personal preference, I guess.

You're just upset there are no cats in it for you to run over.

That is one of many reasons I am disappointed with the game.

Does anyone else find 'The Mens Room' on the tv hilarious? Baz is fucking great!

Garethw · 9th May 2008, 15:30

Its been reported in the press today that hundreds of X Box and PS3 fans have been complaining about the game freezing. Anybody experienced any major issues yet?

KanieKane · 9th May 2008, 15:32

I never got it once, theres a patch out for those who had it now anyway

afrocentricity · 9th May 2008, 18:14

Just the normal prob* where you're driving so fast the textures and objects don't render fast enough... and you plough into a lampost.

Been like that since GTA3...

Scholesy · 10th May 2008, 01:35

Framerate sucks

1871_Biscuit · 10th May 2008, 01:47

if i wanted to pick up a hooker, how and when would on do it?

BezsMaracas · 10th May 2008, 01:51

There's usually a load hanging around on Fairfield Street, under Piccadilly station

Steev · 10th May 2008, 01:54

Near the Corn Exchange in Leeds is usually a good place.

1871_Biscuit · 10th May 2008, 02:02

Orite, i didnt realise GTAIV was set in the north of england. Pretty realistic representation though.

Right, I've played it

You're all a bunch of incredibly sad gimps. It's just the exact same game yet again, but with improved graphics.

How anyone can waste significant amounts of their time on this is beyond me

I said exactly the same thing.

Right I got this yesterday and I have played a couple of hours on it and I just cannot get into the game. Same old GTA except with improved graphics.

Trading it in for Haze in a couple of weeks. (Which, having just played the demo, looks fooking amazing)

3Sixty · 10th May 2008, 10:14

Haze looks awful to me.

Yeah.

I'll wait for KZ2 and resistance 2.

Fair enough, I enjoyed it myself. Looks very, very good.

KZ2 has been delayed untill 2009 so you'll be waiting a while.

3Sixty · 10th May 2008, 10:28

Thats fine, CoD4 still gives me all i need in the FPS genre at the moment.

Incidentally did you play the Race Driver: Grid demo, that so disappointed me

esmufc07 · 10th May 2008, 10:40

No, the only driving game for me is Gran Turismo, can't beat it!

RedKaos · 10th May 2008, 10:41

Sorry guys, I think Haze looks pretty wank too.

Maroon Lucifer · 10th May 2008, 11:08

Noodle and Smashed's bitch... How can more of a good thing with better graphics be a bad thing?

You shall forever be known on the caf as Bernie and Florian

Scholesy · 10th May 2008, 11:31

The driving is pish in this

What did you expect? Super MarioWorld?

1871_Biscuit · 10th May 2008, 11:48

I fucking love the driving. I have it down to a T. Just tap the handbrake and turn the way you want to go. Is awesome. I haven't got that fair yet and Im not sure if i like the game or love the game. For me, im not sure if there is going to be longevity to it. I could see myself getting bored of doing the missions, and online doesn't seem great. But my mates who got it on release day are still loving it, so maybe i will still be playing it in a while. Also, do you buy new house's on here, like on GTA SA
Graphics don't seem that fantastic in cut scenes, PS2 graphics in my opinion.
Although during the game the graphics are much improved.

I only ever played GTA III out of the 3d ones. This story line seems 10 times better then that one. Also form reports the story is heaps better then hte previous couple that i didnt play. Multiplayer is also heaps of fun.

paddyf091 · 10th May 2008, 12:45

I got my copy last night, and I'm pretty impressed with it. Interesting storyline and good characters so far. It takes a while to really get into the game IMO, as I've done about 10% and its still teaching you to do new stuff in most missions. Its lived up to my expectations though.
