I'm sure I'm not the only GTA fan around here, so figured I'd share an interesting read, incase you haven't seen it. GTA IV has been awhile in the making, and the delays on release have been frustrating... but, in the long run, a very good thing. By all accounts the lag has been worked out, frame rate issues have been fixed, the engine has been improved...

And to top it off, Rockstar has done what Many have been asking for... included an online system (with multiple modes).
The folks at IGN were blown away.

The only question for me becomes, how can I get more time in the day...

^^ Yes, it could be. If I didn't work I'd have time to keep up with WoW AND GTA. Just need to find a way to still bring in some money while doing it.

I was born to play GTA. Good luck. ;)

Only Rockstar could make a game where you nail a ho to replentish your health. Then smack her around to get your dough back.
That game was made for guyute. :p

I'll play. But i advice: I'll only buy the PS3 when its price get, at least, not classified as a rape to my cashmakers.

It's not my fault if the PS3 cost here in Brazil is $800

He was giving you props. Having the pimp talk down is a good thing. ;)

He's so pimp he can read 5th level meanings into a single sentence!
Fernando, I'm calling you cool :)
"rape of the cashmakers" is exactly the poetry I expect from GTA

Russian mafia this time Art...
Probably slightly different dialect than the Brazilian mafioso.

I didn't preorder this. But the more I think about the impending release, the more I consider it. You know I heard that this is the first game to absolutely bust a Blu-Ray storage limit? The NA version that ships won't include the Japanese sound track stuff... they didn't have the space. Unreal.

Depends. Check ebay. Quite a few being sold w/out the hard drive... for whatever reason. Buy a cheap ps3 and put a drive in it. Beats the $700 mine was, that's for sure.

Oh, and..... yesterday I preordered. :lol:

So... who's got it? Whaddya think? Just picked mine up yesterday, I was out of town the week of release. Played a couple hours last night. Wishing I didn't just have a week off so I could've stayed home to play all day. lol

It's good enough that I'm sitting here on a conference call just thinking about playing. :lol:

Could be one of the best games ever made. Definately top 3.
