Will you be buying or have you bought GTA 4?

***Veridian3*** · Apr 24, 2008, 03:47 PM

So this could be the biggest selling game for a long time, do you plan to get it... and why?

RoyBatty · Apr 24, 2008, 04:26 PM

Voted for no. I never played any GTA, and the only games I'm interested/waiting for now are Mafia 2 and Fallout 3

**MIG-31** · Apr 24, 2008, 07:39 PM

Voted No... Played some of the early gta games.Never liked them that much..

Plus im short of cash at this time..

Zelig · Apr 24, 2008, 08:30 PM

I'll buy at some point, after the PC version gets released.

***craig5320*** · Apr 24, 2008, 11:44 PM

ordered the special edition, currently at packing status at play.com hope they dispatch tomorrow it might arrive early :-)

Lowfat · Apr 25, 2008, 02:12 AM

No. Last good GTA was GTA1. The rest were boring after 30 minutes.

Tipstaff · Apr 25, 2008, 11:15 AM

Who wears the pants in your relationships, people?!?! Gawd damn, grow some cohones! Every single person that says they aren't buying this game or doesn't like this series is openly lying. They just don't want their mothers, girl friends, wives.. basically their bosses knowing that they want to play a game ripe with sex, extreme violence, extreme language, etcetera, etcetera, but secretly though, they want this game. It pains me to see you guys like this. Take this poor soul for instance:

Oh the pain. It really does pain me to see you, and others like you in such denial.

Please help this boy by donating (care of Tipstaff) to the "MIG-31 Needs Cash To Buy A Game From A Series He Never Liked That Much Foundation." With your donations we can help this boy, and children like him, to finally admit openly, and without fear of losing Punta privileges, castration, or death, that they really do like the GTA series.

With your donations (and be generous, people) you.. um.. I mean we can make a difference.

Kind of funny, but I am also one that does not play GTA. My bro might buy it and I am sure I will play it a little bit, but we had all the other ones and well the only time I played was on the PC with all the codes and just ran around killing everyone for a half hour.

Never played 5 seconds of any mission ever lol. Game just never looks good to me.

HaHa i am split in the middle here laughing like hell at your response..

So as you made the suggestion about donations to me,i don't see any pm's with you making the first offer!!!

PS>> Only Joking

Thanks for the Laugh you have just made my day.

(BTW a little less of the 'Boy' i'm older than you may think)

Judas · Apr 25, 2008, 05:30 PM

I already donate to a half dozen charities, including a few that protect children from violence, so I can't, in good conscience, donate money to get you the game. Sorry.

However, I've been receiving donations all day for the "MIG-31 Needs Cash To Buy A Game From A Series He Never Liked That Much Foundation", and when all is said and done I should have enough to buy you the game after I buy mine... well... maybe a few bucks to put towards it at any rate.

Same here. Do wish I had an Xbox though, the game looks wonderful.

Yard Waste · Apr 29, 2008, 10:22 PM

Have to see a PC version (if ever).
PC has been deserted not only by game makers, but by many sites (this one included imho) for consoles.

Simply by posting game and new games headlines WITHOUT mentioning the platform in the heading is the prime reason I say this btw.

e.g, an anouncement about a game is on the main page. I say that looks cool and AFTER I have followed the link it mentions console game only.
Why can't you clearly state in the anouncement/news about a game or release and what platform the game is on??? Infact it should be standard practise! This way those who don't have consoles or want anything to do with them, don't waste their time with a useless link or story ????

Agreed, if any of my mates get it on 360 (which i doubt because they're too busy shagging halo 3) i'll give it a go and see if it's worth waiting up for a PC Version. From experience though we'll be waiting a loooooooooong time.

Sic Puppy · Apr 30, 2008, 12:45 AM

I'll be getting it at some point. Last one I played was Vice City. My bro had San Andreas which looked sweet. He just got GTA IV on Xbox but can't see it as he's in the UK

smurfdude · Apr 30, 2008, 06:23 PM

Yes i've bought 3 copies. one for me and a couple for my brothers.

Mr cairo · Apr 30, 2008, 07:19 PM

Had it this morning .. WOW its pretty damn good

BlueMak · May 1, 2008, 04:23 AM

Where is the option "I would if I had the money"?

xbox360 rulez! ( <<---irrelevant )

PC_Inquisitor · May 2, 2008, 06:47 AM

I'll play it with a friend, you know PS3, 1080p... But when I buy GTA IV will be when it comes out to PC... Why play in 1080p, when you can have more AA and AF!!!

Great Game

Markius · May 15, 2008, 03:59 AM

you mean upscaled to 1080p right?

GREAT game btw, love it

Cow_160483 · May 19, 2008, 08:30 AM
