I've got it as well, so if you guys want to friend me (Jtboomer2) and play some multiplayer I'll be up for it. I'm graduating in a week and a half and I don't have another final until Friday, so I imagine I'll be on quite a bit.

I had to pay £60 to get a copy delivered and had to also buy Kane and Linch or something. Only copies I could find in store or online were in double packs. Just using it as a chance to get rid of extra stock. Bastards. Hopefully should arrive tomorrow. But after this fucking election is over I have four days to play fucking loads

The soundtrack sucks IMO. I recognize only a few songs.

I got Chatterbox from GTA 3 on mp3 so I play it thru my 360 and it feels like old times.

I haven't even really checked the soundtrack out yet. I find myself turning the radio off during missions because there's always dialogue going on between the characters in the car with me and I like to get every bit of banter I can hear.

Fucking awesome game, that's about all I can say. They really set a new bar.

Made it to the second island. Lazlow FTW.

This is the only GTA game where I played from the chase cam for more than 10 minutes. I don't know what it is, but those angles coupled with the Journey station is trippy.

This has to be said:

GTA4 is the most fun multiplayer going on right now; I'm sure it will take over 'Live in the record books.

BUT...

...The Party/Lobby/Invite/Join system needs a serious overhaul. I don't know if Halo 3's party system is just so advanced that I find other game lobby systems below standard by perception, but GTA's system makes it hard to simply join up with your crew and make some games. It seems to choose a Host at random, and 9/10 times the Host is someone who doesn't know how many options he actually has, or care enough to change anything at all (screw AutoAim). And never quite know when it's alright to join a session or invite people.

I think the Party mode (which is kind of a wasted step) should automatically be Free Mode at the start, like right when you make the 'Lobby'. The Host, who should always be the guy who made the game, should adjust options for the next game from right there. And if they still want the classic Lobby room that comes up when games finish, they should do that all the way and drop the Party step altogether.

Love the game, but an update should iron out that frustrating system and make for a smoother experience.

Other than that mini-rant; I LOVE THIS GAME. More memories than I can post right now.

This game while decent is far over-rated.

- Cars cant corner for shit, they grind gears, and using the handbrake is like pouring oil over the road.

- Controlling Niko is like getting some kid with ADD to walk in a straight line.

- What fucktard choose the soundtrack

- Why is it always dark, I mean you drive, and you smash you headlights, and your fucked.

- The GPS is really fucking annoying

- Auto-aim is great, if you were able to then move the crosshairs away from the target, Manual aim is a pain in the ass

- The camera is fucking retarded alot of the time.

- New fight system is retarded.

- A small coupe, and a fucking firetruck, do not handle ANY differently.

Jesus, why am I playing this shit.

LOL this is the funniest post you have ever made.

Maybe if you weren't such a tard you would understand how to use the game mechanics.

Driving is easy once you are used to the new engine. The GPS works fine other than very minor glitches that don't even happen frequently. Fuck, it even updates on the fly.. what more could you want.

The fight system is light years better than the old fight systems. Once you grasp the concept of pressing more than just one button like a retard, it is great. And you are an idiot if you don't notice the differences in handling between vehicles.

Though, considering you like mostly horrible music I'm not surprised you don't like the soundtrack.

Yeah I thought the soundtrack was immense. Indie, Reggae, dance, spanish, 'classic' rock, great talk stations, r and b, rap, old school hip hop, I mean it's just awesome in my opinion.


The handling just takes getting used to.

I have no idea what you are on about with Nikko's controlling, I think you need to read the manual, sounds like the problem might just be you.

Yeah, in past gta games movement was too sensitive. Nico controls much better.

And what the hell is this "GPS is annoying" crap? Its freaking awesome. You'd rather check the map every 2 minutes?

My friend bought a 360 and this game so I went over and played it yesterday. All I did was fuck around and drive. It took some getting used to, but it's really fun. I love dragging people from the car door.

The controls are a little different, but I think it's for the best. I'm still saving for either a 360 or a PS3 and this game.

Jesus, why am I playing this shit.
- Slow down to turn and use the normal break, don't use the handbreak - this isn't a stunt game, it's more based on reality. Though I'll say that it's a bit slippery, once you've adapted to it it works wonderfully.

- How about pressing the left thumstick up? Seriously, that's a retarded complaint.

- I don't mind the soundtrack, in fact I like it, but it's a personal taste thing.

- Maybe bring the brightness up? I can see fine without headlights at night, but obviously having them on helps.

- The GPS is one of the best new additions. Now you don't have to guess that if you go on this overpass you have to double back. I can't believe anyone would complain about it.

- I can pull off headshots in manual aim and I can switch between targets in auto aim. Don't see what your problem is.

- I haven't noticed many camera issues. Then again, I tend to manually control camera in every game I play, moreso than most people I would guess, so they may exist.

- The fight system is awesome and much more realistic than any previous game. Don't know what the fuck you're on. (Then again most people can't grasp it.)

- Yeah, they do.

Seriously, most of your points are from a learn to play standpoint. Is the game perfect? Fuck no, no game is "perfect" and the game does have its flaws. But you shouldn't have gone into it expecting GTA:SA in Liberty City. I expected a completely different game and a learning curve and I beat that curve within three hours of playing.

That said, the ONE major problem I have is the cover system. It's fine if you stay in one place/on one wall, but moving from, for example, car to car, isn't great and usually doesn't work at all, if it's even supposed to.

i found holding x when you are in a car turns on the brights, duh.

Cover system is great when you figure out how to do it, which took me a while.

You have to press toward whatever you are wanting to go to next then take of the cover and go to the next thing, nico will roll or slide to it. really cool.

- I can drive fine when I slow down, but I want to drive decently fast, and cars cant turn at all when your driving over like 20mph, You can try the handbrake, but you go slipping rear-end past it.

- I tried controlling Niko during the SPoiler****
Mission where you chase the dude up the construction site**** I dont know what was going on, but Niko as soon as he touched like anything would bump back, and turn away.

- The soundtrack has like nothing in my taste at all, I recognize like maybe 5 songs, and they are all meh.

- I have the brightness at full, maybe its the TV.

- The GPS talking is what I am annoyed by, but if you turn off the voice, you have to watch it yourself, really lose-lose for me, as most of the time, I can take a quick look at map, and get to destination no problem.

- When I have auto-aim on, and I go to use the targeting reticle, it auto draws to the nearest person, and I am unable to go to manual aim from that.

- When you in a smaller space trying to fight, the camera is retarded, it zooms into the back of your head, adn I have no idea where I am going.

- Maybe the fight system needs some getting used to, but I find it pretty annoying, especially when someone else joings the fight.

- I tried, and they dont corner much different, both either hit the wall, or slipped past when I used the handbrake.


Oh and another thing I am having a lot of trouble with, is L2 used to be look left, R2 was look right, and L2+R2 was look behind, that is taking alot of getting used to.
