The only way I'm going to play this is if it features some significant improvement over the previous installments. I like the GTA games, but Vice City and San Andreas didn't really add much to a formula that I was growing tired of quickly. And no, new weapon aiming does not suffice.

From what I've seen so far, no truly unique features have been announced for GTA IV, so I'm remaining skeptical for now.

Besides, why is Liberty City New York all of a sudden? It sure didn't look like New York in GTA III. Isn't the GTA "universe" meant to be somewhat consistent?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'm aware of that. What I meant was that this "New Yorkesque" Liberty City has nothing to do with the original Liberty City from GTA III. Why they couldn't just come up with a new name is beyond me.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
