Grand Theft Auto IV -- It might feature crime and prostitutes.

theres no button to just lock on?

More soundtrack details coming in.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Theft_Auto_IV_soundtrack

Jazz-Fusion station will probably end up my favorite.

I'm glad that I don't recognise most of those.

Looking forward to driving around to Oxygene though.

I'm a little confused since it's (according to upthread) based in 2001-ish? But, I see "Get Innocuous" by LCD Soundsystem on the Radio Broker station? Not too get too aspierube but they've been very good about avoid anachronisms in the past games, is that out the door now?

erm guys i think slocki was joking about the 9/11 thing

GTA4 is set in 2007

The trailer with "Get innocuous" was on TV last night. Have decided to buy 360 as they're on sale at the moment, play the hell out of this game and save up for PS2. God I want this game so much. GTA:SA doesn't work on PC so seriously starting to get withdrawal symptoms.

well, color me retarded, it sounded pretty awesome so i wanted to believe it -_-

rockstargames.com/socialclub is supposed to be taking registrations today, i dunno when, exactly, but sometime. keep your eyes open!

shipping to stores today, will anyone break the street date like argos did with halo 3?

I got my ipod touch a couple weeks before they were supposed to be selling them... might be worth a punt to play on some tesco worker's ignorance?

i think the soundtrack is now the feature i most anticipate with each new game.

Having read the gamespot.com "hands=on" review of the multiplayer aspects, I could not be more excited for this game. Get here already!

link?

my 360 is totally spazzing out now and pretty much refusing to do anything too processor intensive which basically means, swos=yes, xbla=yes, cod4=no. doesn't bode well for GTA4. not sure whether to courier the thing out to msoft on monday/tuesday and hope it's back in time for GTA4 next tues. anyone got any experience with msoft support on RRoD?

alternative is obv, it works intermittently and seems to work after the 'towel trick' for a few days at a time, just a pain to have to do the towel trick obv

GTAIV Multi-Player Hands-On

Do want.

I have just sent my 360 in for servicing, the RRoD/towel trick was getting me down + doubtful I can afford GTAIV on launch day = no launch day blow out for me. : /

The waiting!!! This final week is killing me more than the whole last year!

Just mostly really looking forward to running around a well designed open world and exploring

yes and yes. i won't be in a hurry to start any missions. i want some quality explore/random death time.

I'm trying to think where I should buy it since I didn't pre-order. Supermarkets don't do pre-orders so that's probably my best bet, but I'd probably have to get up stupid early to go to the nearest Tesco or whatever before work :'(

I'm always amazed by how little I care about the GTA series. I sometimes feel like there's something wrong with me.

OTM.

There is something wrong with you!

what has life done to Dan P to make him stop caring?

Did Blizzard close down it's servers or something? This new and unfeeling DP scares me.

not that I have a 360 right now : /

someone was shot at that pub on the corner a few weeks ago. real life gta

take two / rockstar have done an immense job of marshalling the hype for this game… it has been a exercise in precision control: with info only being leaked out slowly… apart from the world map being leaked to kotaku (?), they've done really well

do we even know what the hud looks like?

Among the songs listed for the latin music station, according to wikipedia: Aqua - "Barbie Girl."

Excellent. Great song. I say this without a hint of sarcasm, I genuinely like that song. It is miles better than Salsa. I realise that I now look like a fool. So it goes...

will that play on your setup?

the 'leaked' videos are either removed immediately or complete bollocks lol

I saw a couple today, low quality but undoubtedly footage of the game

has dampened my enthusiasm slightly tbh

just worked http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/206871.html

I've seen a couple. The only thing that was a little disappointing was how bouncy the driving bits looked (still).

it just rminded me fr all the innovation it is still a gta game and I've never partic liked gta games lol

I decided not to watch that because for whatever reason I really enjoy the process of starting a game for the first time.

Yeah - I clicked on a link that was to the opening credits and watched about ten seconds before deciding, wait - I want to see that for the first time when I'm actually playing the game. However, the gametrailers clip I linked to above doesn't really spoil anything - it's just a minute or so of a gun fight / car chase (not any different really from anything in the earlier games - though it looked good - especially the shooting!). I also watched a longer clip (removed) of Niko walking around a bit and stealing a car - didn't feel like those really spoiled anything - just gave me a little more solid idea of what to expect.

But yeah - it's time to stop watching videos and start crossing my fingers for the call from "that special someone."

you know tyra banks?

joeks

jeff, you have a connec' who is going to hook you up early?

...hawt.

Who is that, Ashlee Simpson? Miley Cyrus?

nothing on Gametrailers works on my pc, what does it require?

Ste - I'm not sure. Try dailymotion - it's flash (I think) and seems to have the most stuff...
