[Multiplatform] Grand Theft Auto IV. Not as much fun as shooting real Albanians

Oh. I was planning to buy a 360 the day this launched (peeack will also be CRUSHED2DEATH). This is quite a delay, but now the game will be even more awesome. Plus I heard a rumour there's a few other games coming out this year that I can play on a 360 anyway.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Apparently they've censored the game here once again (GTA 3 and VC were altered so that you couldn't actually pick up the prostitutes, VC even had a mission or two completely wiped out). And this is going to be one of the most expensive games released here in quite some time, at almost $115 US for the standard edition (add another eighty grand for the SE). So fuck the local market. Does anyone know of a good UK online retailer that ships overseas? =o It'd be even more awesome if the US 360 version turned out to be region free but lololol.

Pretty excited about this, I even almost picked up Saint's Row a while back. Almost.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Wait, they ran the same story for GTA SA bus ads? Bus ads? Really? This is crucial news! FOX is a proud sponser of the Grand Theft Auto series it seems.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Pics of the special edition from someone on the internet.









$150 for this and you don't even get a proper case for the music CD? Pure style. I'll be there on launch day for my hobo deluxe standard edition.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I didn't read the review, because IGN makes me yawn, but one point more than Klax on Lynx? I don't think so, IGN. brb, going to go protest outside their office.

No more of this analytical bullshit. Just give the game a fucking chance before you guys decide that it's going to suck.

But.. but.. this is the internet!

"New game announced!"
"GONNA BE SHIT"
"I haven't told you what it is!"
"YOU'RE SHIT"

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

They might as well have the option. Some game saves alone take up like 30 MB. >=( SIX HOURS 'TIL THE MIDNIGHT LAUNCH I'M NOT ATTENDING BECAUSE I'D RATHER SAVE $30 AND GET IT FROM ANOTHER STORE TOMORROW MORNING.

I am an excited consumer. I like how it's already been in the news here, some Family First cult wants it banned because you can shoot people in a city. Certainly a new thing for a video game, I cannot wait until 1994. How did Family First get a hold of the game anyway, did they download it? Family Pirates am I right.

Family Ski am I right.

Fami.. com am I ri-my braaaaain.

FELIPE NO

Bottle of coke today. (Got the pointzzz junk without pre-ordering =o)



WHERE DID NIKO GO. FUCK.



YEEEEAAAAAAH

How ya doing, buddy?

It's okay! Just remember that I'm playing a toned-down version (less blood, heads can't be blown off etc., drug effects gone, most of the sex stuff is removed and several cut scenes are apparently completely wiped out <3)

It's still fucking awesome (game) though.

Edit: Haha fuck the local message boards making up stuff about all the cut stuff here, upon further exciting play, nothing is different so far. I just got a lap dance and had tits clip through Niko's face. Those are some botched implants right there. >=(

Pushing people is my new favorite thing ever. I don't know why, but it's just so much fun pushing everyone over and watching them slump in bizarre rag doll-ish ways. In one mission where I had to kill a dude (spoiler!) I managed to push him out a window instead of shooting him.

God this game is so amazing. ;_;

I'm currently very annoyed at the

Spoiler:

FUCKING RACING 'MISSION' WITH BRUCIE. CARS CONTROL LIKE SHIT, THE LAST THING I WANT TO DO IS RACE ONE AROUND CHECKPOINTS, OH GOD WHY IS THERE ONE OF THESE AWFUL MISSIONS IN EVERY GTA, IT'S LIKE THE SPEEDERBIKES IN EVERY BATTLETOADS

But aside from that I'm having a lovely time!

Guys. Shut up. >=( YOU CAN PUSH OLD LADIES OVER. Fuckin'... fuckin'... 16/10!
