Dumb question, but who's gettin it? I've been totally burned on the GTA series, hopefully multiplayer will make it fun again. IGN gave it a perfect 10 btw. Hoping to pick it up in the next hour or so, I think it may be a long night :)

i dont want to do a repeat of what made me buy the PS2.
I only use my PS2 for GTA1-SA, and Gran Turismo 1-4.

Hate to buy a PS3 just for 2 games again :D

you can check it out when I get it, if u like...Â* I would get the PS3 anyway!Â* ;)Â* the PS3 is off the hook! I actually took some time off from video games for about a couple years (except when GTA games came out) from any of the systems, but got the PS3 and play this damn thing almost every weekend...

O.k. just got off the phone w/ some1 @ gamestop. You can start heading over there to sign in around 10:30pm and they will give them out in order of arrival @ midnight... Im not in that much of a hurry to get it... I will wait till tomorrow and see if I can get lucky... considering I did pre-order it... we'll see...

Call. Cuz I remember getting Halo3 and Super smash melee at midnight. NEVER wait in line though for like a day though. it's all for fags only. haha
Just show up 5min. before midnight and you'll get a copy, I always have and store stock up on big titles.

Damn richard.....get with the times!!! a core 360 is like 3bills i think

04-28-2008, 01:16 PM
Oh damn I posted after you called. They say show up early but only the dorks do. There's a few game shops and a super walmart by my house, I guarantee not all will sell out so unless you're dedicated just show up right at midnight.

vial8or
04-28-2008, 01:57 PM
It's chill Matt. I didn't pre-order either. I never have and still pick up games at midnight. Not all stores like wal-mart and bestbuy etc... do pre-orders, only like EB games and a few others. so it's all good!!

Now a dilemma, do I get it for 360 or PS3????

gen4k20a2
04-28-2008, 02:01 PM
best buy DOES pre orders

vial8or
04-28-2008, 02:08 PM
^^hmm....not mine. that's funny, guess it's a store thing and up to the manager.

Anyways, this thing got a fuckin 10/10 on IGN. They say last game to get a 10 was soul caliber back in 99. Damn.

Still, who's getting it for 360 and who for PS3??
PS3 you can use the six-axis control and the graphics are sicker....but i've always loved getting achievements on 360, plus xbox live is better.

Eh.....i might just go for ps3

So far, it's VERY good. Only about 2 hours or so into it. Not for the kids though, with lines such as "Roman, my breath does not smell like titties" lol.... The dialog is hilarious. Driving physics take some getting used to, combat targeting is 100% better (only tried hand to hand and knives so far), the city is by far the best ever.

lol what?? i was there with him *coughmattyouoweme$20!!cough* and we were almost 1st in line. they only had 2 copies for xbox period.
the line was for ps3.

So far so good, +1 on the driving physics being weird, but the soundtrack is great so far!! haha when u get hit by cars, you leave dents, the environment is crazy realistic too. Game is awesome, and you can do online play from the get go. Just press the d-pad and select it.
Little things like shooting people, watching them limp away, than pass out is awesome.

But for all you PS3 guys, it takes like 20min. just installing the game when u first put it in, like gt5. other than that, i've only played for about 1 hour but so far so great!!!

I was at Wal-Mart when the doors opened this morning at 6AM (only one there). Walked right into electronics, asked if they had it and the lady was like sure, one second. She wheels over this buggy that has 3 large cardboard boxes. She had to open the box to get my 3 copies (bought for 2 friends also). They must have had at least 100 copies for Xbox 360 and PS3. We're all dying to get home and play lol. Hope it lives up to the hype!

Dude I wasn't a fan of Xbox live, but it is well worth it. Just keep it for the 360. I have a PS3 as well, but I only bought it for GT5 and MGS. I only have one game for my PS3... Resistance... I haven't even turned my PS3 on in about... 7 months. I waited in line for that thing at best buy and I had so many great expectations for the PS3 but compared to the 360; right now its losing.

on another note... check out "Army of Two" (ps3) if your into tactical shooting secret agents type shit, this game is off the hook! only thing I didnt like is how short it is...

^^I read that article after i bought it for ps3. The loading times are faster on PS3 which is good.
But honestly who's gonna know? I mean we're all used to san andreas style loading so both versions are better than that which is great.

Each cutscene and mission is crazy detailed, the dialog and story. It feels like I'm watching a movie sometimes!! Oh ya what's the longest you guys have been on a rampage so far?? :D so far it was like 5min. for me before i flew off a bike at like 150 and killed myself. hahaha

Dude I wasn't a fan of Xbox live, but it is well worth it. Just keep it for the 360. I have a PS3 as well, but I only bought it for GT5 and MGS. I only have one game for my PS3... Resistance... I haven't even turned my PS3 on in about... 7 months. I waited in line for that thing at best buy and I had so many great expectations for the PS3 but compared to the 360; right now its losing.

on another note... check out "Army of Two" (ps3) if your into tactical shooting secret agents type shit, this game is off the hook! only thing I didnt like is how short it is...

Played GTA iv last night for like 3 - 4 hours... Off the hook!!! didnt play online yet, but I will...

Ok so...randomly as you play the game will freeze. It may unfreeze in a few seconds. Most cases the game will just freeze the system totally. You will need to restart. From there the game will no load into the mission. Youll see the "loading *mission name*" screen and it will never progress.

The work around for now that semi work....disable your internet connection on the PS3...its under system settings.

I realize you can't really compare GTA to Mercenaries, they are two very different sandbox games, but there are so many things in Mercenaries that aren't in GTA that I crave.

this page is solely dedicated to the individuals, whether owners of a playstation 3 or xbox360, who have been affected by the GTA4 freezing epidemic and also for those who have lost their entire gaming systems to the problem as well.

this is page is here simply to chronicle the freezing epidemic and let naysayers see that this epidemic is very real and very universal. people have lost not only 70 dollars on a game but their entire systems and will now have to spend more of their hard-earned money on replacements, due to a faulty product from rockstar games, which is appauling.

please also keep in mind that not everyone can record a video and post it to youtube and that these are simply the people who can, there are alot more people than the small amount of people featured here. refer to the "still don't believe it?" section's official playstation board link. thanks.
FIX NEWS:

5.3.08 - according to a good friend of the page, engles, the problem has been found and he writes:

"Just got off the phone with T2 support. The issue that is causing the freezing is actually two separate issues. One is the network problem that the newer PS3's are encountering however the older model, launche units are experiencing an entirely different problem. The launch version of PS3's used a different chip that could run PS2 and PS1 games without emulation. This chip is conflicting with the game code and cause GTA4 to freeze. The T2 representative told me that the fix will indeed not be exclusively in the form of a patch. There will probably be a patch for the issues relating to the network and things that the newer PS3's are facing however.. the older launch 60GB versions and possibly the 20gb, i didnt ask, will require a firmware upgrade that will allow GTA4 to run on the older chip. This firmware upgrade, he said, could be available anytime between tomorrow morning and "as soon as possible" as he put it. The issue is deffinately being adressed and it seems as though they have found what the problem is. So guys lets hope this works and spread this around because this came directly from my 25 minute conversation with T2 support that I just got finished with."



SYSTEMS AFFECTED:

- 20g model ps3s.
- 40g model ps3s.
- 60g model ps3s.
- 80g model ps3s.
- all model xbox360s.


HOW YOU CAN HELP:

- call rockstar/take 2/2k.
- call sony/microsoft.
- email all of the above.
- demand information.
- tell your friends.
- spread the word.
- make a freeze video.
- link to this page.

Gamertag: I LiquidLife IÂ* Â*Host Advantage, going to fix this?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The below is for Gears of War; in hopes that this won't be a problem with Gears 2

If you vote no, please post as to why you think host advantage isn't a problem.

It was okay back in the day when every game was laggy online, but this is now, and lag is not an option anymore, especially when it works for a clear advantage to some players.

Alright Epic games/Microsoft, fix this **** PLEASE! This game is a blast and everything, but it's gotten to the point where most people don't play anymore because they are tired of getting there ass handed to them by the host.... Hopefully this won't be a problem in Gears 2, because I won't buy it, I'll just rent it and play single player, then never play it again. It's such a waste, every element of this game is great except for the host advantage, and this alone makes me not want to play. It seems like something small, but for us gamers that play hardcore, this is big.

It's so obvious: For example, when you are the host, you can shoot at something and your rounds hit immidiatly, but for players that aren't the host, if you shoot at something the rounds delay a split second before hitting making it harder to hit someone, too often much harder.

Screw that, that is why there are only a handful of multiplayer matches for this game, and there are still thousands for Halo 3....

Bottom line, I buy games for multiplayer, Gears is like a gold nugget inside a locked box (the lock being bad net code/no dedicated servers), give me the damn key please!

This is the perfect video to visually describe
the host advantage.

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...arch&plindex=4

As you can see the host
bullets hit immidiatly, then it shows you through
a regular player bullets being delayed big time.
It goes on to show you other games that don't
lag at all, gotta love client side hit detection.

Here is a good one, it's called "Host=God Mode": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egzchQZ9IDI
Granted, when you see the video, the guy
is pretty good, and he even says it's basically
God mode for someone who knows how to play
well, and for those who suck at Gears, just another way
to squeeze off a few more kills that they didn't
deserve [/i]

Halo3= No Lag / No host advantage
Call of Duty 4= No Lag / No host advantage
Gears of War = Lag / Host Advantage, -lets get rid of this

Options to fix this problem posted by member: "Sulfuric"

1) Dedicated servers
2) Client-Side Hit-Detection
3) Modified version of CSHD closely resembling Halo 3.
4) #2 or #3, AND dedicated servers.

I dont like the new GTA. Its lost a LOT of the original concepts. I.E. the cool driving physics. The driving in this game blows. AND, there arent any FWD, or AWD cars anymore, theyre all RWD. That and the banshee and infurnace are impossible to drive in any other than a straight line.

I have to say that im glad i didnt go out and buy a system just for this game. Rockstar really shot themselves in the foot trying to copy Saints Row.

general complaints:
falling down
no diving
WTF is with "take cover"
mounting ladders? why?
the cars suck
no more drifting
every car seems underpowered
or your tires just burn out if you ahve too much power
dont like the new police getaway thing
no skydiving/base jumping

all in all, i think it lost some of the mojo.

I disagree with you SoCalRedline.

The problem isn't it losing it's mojo, the problem is that it still has the SAME AMOUNT OF MOJO. Cars still disapear if you leave them and turn around just for a second.

You start seeing your current car more often, and the shooting mechanics suck STINKY ASS SHIT, and co-op didn't even come with the game like the game box says on the back, WTF!

All in all, it's a good game mostly because of the story and the good graphics, but it's lacking big time in the stuff that really matters. I'm glad I bought the game because it's keeping me busy while waiting for other games

MERCENARIES II FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Multiplayer sucks, anyone who is a hardcore FPS gamer knows this.Â* It's just an option for simple minded people who's brain overloads when there's too much strategy and quick thinking involved.

The GTA IV Multiplayer disgusts me it's so shitty.Â* I say don't bother making something if you can't do it right. (No offense to those who like GTA IV Multiplayer.

Well it would take me a while to actually write you a good reply to your question, but I'm comparing it to Call of Duty 4, Halo 3, Gears of War, Frontlines, etc....

By the way, Frontlines environments are huge and it has virtually no lag with all kinds of vehicles, so if you want up to 50 people (again, no lag!) with all kinds of vehicles and options, go that route, not GTA IV.

^^wtf.....you can't compare a FPS shooter multiplayer to this.

That's like saying "well the driving sux compared to forza2 and gt5"

and Socalredline....my cuz and I have almost the exact same disagreements with the game. That, and there are no more jets/planes.

I kinda like it, as it's much more real than the others. It makes it much more hard and makes you think more when you play.

Any other GTA, and every mission I'd run around with an AK and just be dumb and kill every one. You try that in this GTA and you're dead, you need strategy, head shots, and know how to take cover. I kinda like that, but because the game is much more mature and they're trying to be much more realistic, they have to take away the free falling and give you tons of damage by getting hit and those other minor things.

The driving is Meh too.....but multiplayer is pretty sick.You just need to be creative. Try playing at the airport and have everyone in helicopters!!

That is what they are trying to duplicate in GTA - FPS - or more like 3rd person (GEARS)

And they failed miserably, sorry, I'm hardcore, not shitcore. Keep playing GTA IV, I'm glad you found a game you like :)

LoL, weren't you all over the game's nuts a few pages back??

It has flaws like anything, but it's still so vast and deep that a few things like driving or shooting can't bring down the whole game.

I still think those who don't like the multiplayer haven't played with friends. I always get a few of my friends, and we just wreak chaos everywhere.
Cops N Crooks is hilarious too.

GTA is great, I didn't buy it for the multiplayer

(the only type of game that I would buy that didn't have multiplayer, or in this case shitty multiplyer)

multiplyer is shitty.... probably one of the shittiest multiplayer games I've played in a while.

I don't know about you, but I only buy video games for the multiplayer, and I've been that way sense Doom, so maybe from that you can understand my view point.

You aren't as picky as me

I still don't get how it's shitty....Maybe you expected a bit too much Halo. It's exactly how regular GTA is....just with other people from around the world in your map. All the demos and reviews before it came out said exactly that, and it's fun.
Don't get me wrong, I know where you're coming from and know what a true FPS multiplayer should be like, and that is def. not what GTA is

my biggest gripe is how far removed this version is from the old one. you used to be able to drift turns, and drive around without any relative skill. now its like you have them trying to add unrealistic physics to the driving and it sucks.

and liquid life, you are so dumb. You obviously havent ever followed the GTA series. Go back to your silly little FPS games. When the military invents bunnyhopping FPS robots, im sure you will do great work for them.

Single Campaign is done... There isnt much to do in the game anymore. You cant get Semi trucks and attach trailers. You cant get gang members or somethign along those lines. You cant upgrade your fighting ability. You cant stab someone in the back. Oh well...anything cool im missing out on (other than multi player)

have you guys figured it out that most cars have different special things they have on the car...such as the ferrari type of car, for example...some have these scoops from the side of the car and some have vents...and on the evo some have a hood scoop like an sti with hood pins with a CF hood and others just have a CF hood

--You can create some interesting situations with cheats.

You know the one mission you do for the italian guy, the one where you go to the hotel and go up and kill all the guys in the hallway, and then keep going into the Pent House and kill all the guys in there and continue to kill all the way to the roof?

I spawned an NRG 900 up on the roof and did a wheelie off the roof, hahaha.Â* That's another problem, if I land on my wheels doesn't matter how far I fall.

--Anyone else do a burn out 'til your rear wheels pop?


--That same mission: instead of fighting my way up to the roof, I spawned a helicopter and landed on a nearby (yet distant) building, which was quite complicated by the way, I had to land just right.Â* Then got on the corner of the building and sniped the guys on the roof, after I sniped all of them I zoomed in on a park farther away and I was able to make out a person, he looked like a very small stick from that distance.Â* I sniped him though just for the hell of it and 2 seconds later I saw the blood splatter from his head.

That's one thing that is pretty cool is that the bullets actual travel at a certain speed like in real life, so you have to lead ahead for objects farther away when sniping.

Then I got back in my helicopter after clearning the roof and landed on the hotel roof, which was even more complicated, you have to land just right or your blades will hit crap until your blades all snap off.Â* Then proceeded to clearn rooms going downstairs, then comming back upstairs when everyone is dead and escaping using the helicopter.

--Again, on the same mission, I rode an NRG 900 into the hotel lobby and got off to press the elevator button, when the elevator came down I did a wheelie into the elevator so that the bike would fit, only way to fit it is upright.Â*

Unfortunetly the bike disappearered when I got to the top.Â* I killed everyone and spawned the NRG 900 again and wheelied off the roof.Â* This time I didn't go fast enough and ended up hitting part of the hotel while upside down and killed myself.
