Default Grand Theft Auto IV

So now that it is finally out...

Who's either playing it, or planning on buying it?

I've been playing through it a bit, and I honestly agree with IGN's rating.

I was a little nervous at alot of the control changes, but they ended up being awesome. Along with the fact you can switch controller modes back to classic any time.

After finishing the story once through I'll check online 16p modes .

I wouldn't give it a 10.0 and I think those ratings are affected just a little by hype, but I would definitely give it a 9.5. The story is surpringly good and it's the first time I've actually cared about the story in a GTA game.

The cell phone system is also such a good idea that I can't imagine playing a GTA game without one.

I like how you can call 911 on your cell phone and distract the cops.
Or if you just want to say hi to an officer I guess.

I'm playing it right now, and I have to say that it's lived up to the hype. Pretty stoked about it.

Can someone here post the entire soundtrack list, please?

I will probably play GTA4 when my friends with a X360 buy it. I specially wanna feel how driving is in this new game, as well as that new covering system.

Suffice it to say that combat was one of the things I hated the most about old GTA games on consoles (it was okay on PC with mouselook though) but I love the combat in GTA4. So much more interesting.

The game pretty much mostly fixes everything that was ever wrong with GTA3. And yeah, the story is actually very interesting. Usually I just get bored and go blow myself up for a while but I'm actually plowing through the story because I really want to know what happens next.

Quick question:

Do any of the old GTA III (or LCS) chars appear in this? Specially that guy who seems to have some cannibal tastes ^^u

See, a lot of people are saying this. I'm actually very interested since the Vice City story I was interested in only for a little while. I can't wait until I play through this.

I agree with Eggman about the story. I haven't done any side quests yet, tried to get 6 stars, robbed stores or anything. Just stickin with the story. The only thing that's a minor problem for me is the cornering for the cars. It just seems like they can't really turn for shit. But it's minor and doesn't really matter in the long run.
