grand theft auto 4

[Ch3tan]

I've never been impressed with the graphical style of GTA since it went 3d, and this is no difference. However the gameplay wins out with this one.

Few funny moments I have had so far - after the first date mission, on the way to the car from bowling some dude starts swearing and runs past, followed by a police officer telling him to stop. Being a civic minded criminal, I ran after them and pushed the suspect to the floor. Cop caught up, pulled his gun and escorted him away.
Crashing - chasing a target in my car, crashed into the back of their van full speed. I was not prepared for the windscreen shattering and me flying through it onto the concrete.

afew peoples say that, but the not too realesque look miixed everything we know and love about the series works well.

you could go back an happily play gta3, wheres a almost similar game with realistic gfx like the getaway has aged far more worse.

 

[Embattle]

There was never going to be anything greatly different, the whole purpose of using engines like RAGE is to cut down development when releasing a game on multiple platforms.

 

[Yaka]

wasnt rage developed coz ea purchased critereon? r

 

[Embattle]

Yes, basically in the past Rockstar used Renderware.

 

[Wonk]

if GTA4 deserves a 10 for the gfx, then this is a 12.

Whats everyones fav online modes?

Mine has to be GTA Free Race and Cannonball run/GTA Race.

Just now i was in a match using Trucks on a GTA race had 3 laps i was in last all of a sudden i noticed one of the Super Cars parked up in a nearby fast food joint so i got out of my truck got in the car and NAILED THAT MOFO.

I then picked up as much SMG ammo as i could and i caught up with the 3 top players and each one i blew the tires out of their trucks and sped by eventually winning 1st place.

Alot of abuse came my way but then i said this is GTA Race and you don't have to play by the rules.

 

[Opt1]

I haven't had much chance to play it.. only done the very first bit..

..Took woman on date.. briefly played lame bowling game..

..is there any point to this bit or can I just ignore the women? I don't really see the point and just think it was a bit naff and boring :S

Can only assume the missions are better..

I've spent $3,000 on hookers of all varieties - slim, fat, black, white, latin!

All because Kate is keeping her legs shut

Also, what is the point of having money in this game? I'm approaching $400,000 and only spend money on bullets / medical bills.

 

[Ch3tan]

I haven't figured out hookers yet ;/

Your forgetting the clothes lol, and bribes to pay for medical/police bills then of course theres giving money to the homeless your toll roads, taxi's and food.

$2,000 suit - the other uniforms are provided by the missions.
$200 shoes
I've already mentioned bills
$5 per use of the toll roads which is negated by mission reward
$150 average on taxis which is negated by mission reward
$1 every 10 minutes for food costs

Lots of spend?

You need to honk your horn at them to get them to come over to the car. (L3 on PS3)

I havent worked out how to give money to tramps yet though.

 

[Mey]

You have to stand near the tramps for abit and then it flashes up if you want to give the money press x button.

Also if you Date Lawchick and Sohogirl (or whatever her names is)

You get (by using your phone to call them on the option) Clear Wanted Level and Health Boost (respectively) after 2-3 dates.

Also Dawyne (if you go out and socialise with him) will eventually give you the option to call for backup from him, and he will send 2/3 people to come help you out.

 

[gunner440]

Just 'finished' the game at 60%

Now to do all the little missions!

Still not found a real use for money -_-

not really spoilt anything

u can easily look those cheats up anyway

If we wanted to. Which we fucking don't.

 

[Ch3tan]

Yeah I think this thread probably calls for spoiler tags now, we will all be at vastly different points in the game.

 

[gohan]

If we wanted to. Which we fucking don't.

all he said is dating them unlocks it doesnt mean you have to use it, or even date them, how has that spoilt your game or your life

 

[Ch3tan]

Because it's not general knowledge gohan, we went through all this years ago. It is why the spoiler tags were introduced.

Suit/Shoes only need to be bought once, $1 every 10mins on food? Are you dying a lot ?

Other than the one off suit payment and taxi/toll costs which you get back 10 fold after missions the only other spend is on Armoured vests.

The money is kinda pointless, i've finished main story and about 2/3rds of the side missions and have just under a million.

For anybody who wants dating advice then

Spoiler

Don't bother, it makes no difference to the story whatsoever, just date Michelle twice to get laid, and date Kate once or twice to keep her happy, other than that don't waste your time on the simcity crap, unless thats your thing

 

[tris-]

you pay tolls?

fag.

 

[bob269]

you pay tolls?

fag.

Saves having to arse about avoiding the police, not that it's difficult just tedious, failing that just drive in to the yellow marker and low and behold the police disappear.

I love this game i pulled up and started listening to some radio Vibe and before i knew it 40 mins had passed.

Ne-Yo Because of You is a top tune for this game i never liked it much before but it nails it in this game.

Alot of the other Soul stuff is good too.

My other fav raido station is Liberty City Rock the host is a freaking MANIAC!!!!!

 

[Ch3tan]

Meh, I turn the music off. It's annoying most of the time, and just gets tedious after you have heard it once. And ne-yo? Fuck sake man, most overplayed song of the last year.

Then you are turning off one of the things that makes GTA what it is ;/

The radio stations are quality and hilarious have you heard the Rock station dude going on about religion? and then some random dude calls in and tells em to fuck religion cuz he has his guns then starts blowing the crap out of some people in the back ground?

IMO gta without the radio stations wouldn't be as good as it is.

 

[Ch3tan]

If you say so, I would be quite happy with out the Tv shows and radio shows, just the ability to use your mp3's to create playlists (remember a few xbox games having that feature, not been seen since) and expanding the game with more missions.
