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!

Jeff LeVine, Tuesday, 22 April 2008 18:23 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Jeff LeVine, Tuesday, 22 April 2008 18:24 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Roberto Spiralli, Tuesday, 22 April 2008 18:33 (sixteen years ago) link

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.

HI DERE, Tuesday, 22 April 2008 18:42 (sixteen years ago) link

OTM.

jim, Tuesday, 22 April 2008 18:43 (sixteen years ago) link

There is something wrong with you!

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

Roberto Spiralli, Tuesday, 22 April 2008 18:58 (sixteen years ago) link

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

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?

czn, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 09:09 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Eric H., Wednesday, 23 April 2008 10:14 (sixteen years ago) link

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?

s1ocki, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 16:32 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Ste, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 17:01 (sixteen years ago) link

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

has dampened my enthusiasm slightly tbh

czn, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 17:16 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Jeff LeVine, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 17:24 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Jeff LeVine, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 17:25 (sixteen years ago) link

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

czn, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 17:32 (sixteen years ago) link

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

polyphonic, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 17:41 (sixteen years ago) link

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.

Jeff LeVine, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 17:59 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Jeff LeVine, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 18:07 (sixteen years ago) link

you know tyra banks?

Who is that, Ashlee Simpson? Miley Cyrus?

Leee, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 21:21 (sixteen years ago) link

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

Ste, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 21:32 (sixteen years ago) link

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

that would be jessica chobot. she's a writer or something for ign.

Creeztophair, Thursday, 24 April 2008 01:10 (sixteen years ago) link

Dailymotion search engine doesn't seem to work for me either, I'd need to go through google to get them (but they're not indexed there yet)

Ste, Thursday, 24 April 2008 08:18 (sixteen years ago) link

then again, i don't care. i can wait a week for official glimpses of game footage for lawds sake.

Ste, Friday, 25 April 2008 08:35 (sixteen years ago) link

am I going to be able to walk into a shop, in England, and buy this on Tuesday? The Internet seems to have sold out

That mong guy that's shit, Friday, 25 April 2008 09:28 (sixteen years ago) link

i pre-ordered it on amazon, i can wait until it's available. Besides, i still don't have a telly yet.

Ste, Friday, 25 April 2008 09:38 (sixteen years ago) link

but to answer your question, most probly not.

Ste, Friday, 25 April 2008 09:39 (sixteen years ago) link

although there could be a chance that one of the smaller shop types will have a few copies around?

Ste, Friday, 25 April 2008 09:40 (sixteen years ago) link

I am counting on you, Some Dude On E-Bay
