I read that 7 page review...

this game, as usual, is upping the ante on video games. The stuff they packed into this game appears in other games... but not to the degree, nor to the enormity... you get bits and pieces in different games...

rockstar is really leagues ahead of the competition...

I'd really like to see Will Wright and the guys at Rockstar get together and create something

the diff between watching a movie and playing a game is that the person playing the game is the one making the choices in the game, that is why people are upset. But I'm in the same boat as you... who gives a ****, its a game...

the people going nuts and killing other people and blaming it on a game were going to go kill people anyway... a game didn't make them unhinged...

I'm at like 10% and been playing for 3-4 hours. I'm tempted to go on multiplayer, but I don't want to get sidetracked, I actually want to play the game. I'm going to the flyers game, so maybe I'll check out free mode when I get home from that, or COD4 online...

controls are a bit rough to get used to, but after an hour or so it was pretty smooth. Driving the cars is the hardest bit since they drive so much more loosely than they did before. And just like real cars, you can't nail the brakes and turn... you just keep going straight. And hitting the ebrake almost always puts you in the opposite direction. You really need to go easier on the gas in missions so you don't run into everything.

I was starting to get motion sickness driving around drunk... but it was awesome that the cops pretty much went right after you if you hit anything in front of them.

DropTopChevy
04-30-2008, 02:53 PM

I run red lights and hit other cars w/o the cops coming after me. they'll usually blip their siren.

true about the pay n spray. its easier to run way if you have 1-2 stars. It gets tougher as the levels go up though...

I think I hit a flaming garbage can... but it was instant explosion, like a bomb went off. moral of the story, prostitutes blow your car up :lol:

I'm really digging all the real small details in this game... like suspension noises from the beat up, and muscles, cars. The blood splatters on the inside of the windshield when you shoot people, multiple times. blood on the vehicle when running people down.

the dents in the car that form to somethings in the environment. IE: I hit a pole in an suv and there was a rounded dent where I hit. The gun shot holes in vehicles.

One gripe I had is the shooting from a vehicle aiming... I want to aim then fire, not press the button and start shooting while trying to aim.

heh the mission where dimitri ****s you over i was in the warehouse and there were cops everywhere outside and i had maybe one hit of health left so i took cover at the door and put about three clips from my micro smg into the nearest cop car to blow it up and clear myself a path. worked great!

I haven't played it yet but I watched my brother play tonight and the first thing he did was punch someone down stairs. When he was fighting the guy I was like can you hit him down the stairs and he did it. I was amazed at the first thing I saw.

I think the driving physics are a little bit too extreme from what I saw. The body roll is redic!

I was sitting around at this lighting gallery this morning and this kid came up to me and said "Did you go to class on tuesday?" I responded "No, but I'm guessing you didn't either." He then says "I was home playing GTA4 all day." lulz.
Another thing I hate is when I try to sneak over to the other islands too early in every game the cops come to kill you.

use cover and bring tons of ammo lol. it really isn't that tough if you remember to:

A) make sure you have armor and health 100%
B) use cover! The AI in this game is way better than what it was in the previous games...
C) use the AI against itself. If you fire using just the right trigger real quick the enemy will sometimes pop out fully to shoot at you thinking you're exposed, this is when you target them using the left trigger then popping out for a burst then back in.

I would but my comp is a good 15 feet from the xbox and tv. Plus there's like a walk through to dinning room in between the two and I dont want people tripping on the cord or yankin it out.

This game is sweet. From what I've seen, the whole city looks sick, I'm just a bit disappointed with Star Junction.

I went on multiplayer today at like 1 and played till 4:45.


My god is that **** fun. I just played a non ranked free roam. It is so ****ing funny. Just people flying around in cars and hitting each other. Cops chase you and ****, there are pedestrians and cars. It's great. The military helicopters are sick. I suggest we all get one one time, 16 to a room.

General Lloyd, V4L, & OptiK0n.

We turned our boss into a heli pilot idling a mile straight up and transporting us on demand.
We turned what is typically a 1.5 minute escape into a half hour cop killing deathmatch.
Lloyd and I had 25 kills each in a game mode where you rarely get 3.

We were laughing so hard it hurt.

PWN3D!

Last time I checked I was 210th on C&C leaderboard.
My brother is 15th and our boy Lloyd is 18th.

We dragged a few unfortunate souls through a 1 hour boss match after midnight last night.
Our BOSS had 17 kills. Lloyd and I both had 35+ kills each. We make over $10,000 from a single C&C match.

The best past was that the second round, when we were the cops, went down in under 3 minutes.
