[notesee]

I used to love GTA2, had it for Dreamcast. Haven't had as much fun with the games since then, but I'ma check it out anyway.

[mr fluffernutter]

Oooh... I love the series. I didn't know there was a new one coming out.

[todesengel]

There's a HUGE billboard up near my school that just has IV on it, with the little rockstar emblem at the bottom. I thought it was GTA....

[ghostdeini]

well it's 6:05... I'm pretty sure their website just suffered a huge meltdown. keeps timing out for me

[chizzua]

same.. can't even long onto the mainpage. all the gta nerds just crashed the server.

[englandmj7]

Neither can I.

They should have known that would happen; ridiculous.

[herpsky]

i just started playing vice city stories on ps2 and it's great

i dont have the $ to buy a ps3 now...

[todesengel]

Oh my god this game looks sick

Couldn't get the GTA website to work, so these are great.

would prob be worth buying ps3 just for this game. i love gta

[herpsky]

feeding that vid to youtube right now

[Loop]

Nice one Herpsky

[herpsky]

the video is pretty much unwatchable unless you have like some crazy beast computer with quad pentium 10s

the resolution is way too high. it's nearly 60 megs for a one minute teaser clip.

[todesengel]

The one that I threw up is a more watchable version. 30mb wmv

for real? I know it's 720p and all, but sheeiiitt

I downloaded an episode of the Planet Earth documentary in High-Def. 48 minutes of video = 2.14 gb. needless to say, it was amazing.

edit: anyway, looks like it's time for me to shell out $600 for the PS3. I've heard it won't be exclusive to that system though, but after seeing Elder Scrolls 4 head-to-head on a 360 and a PS3, I think I'll go with the PS3.

yeah i agree...i totally didn't pay attention to the IV ads in the streets lol i saw them but didn't even think of anything

i need this

[chizzua]

i bought a ps3 when it first came out-- resold it for 1100... time to buy another one!

[djrajio]

Looks great. Someone told me that it would be based in Tokyo. Sadly its not. I wonder if they'll have my firm's building in Times Square. That would be cool.

[goldengloves]

Looks cool, but I get bored of those games so quick. You can only shoot people and jack cars for so long...

I think a GTA should come out for the Wii and it should be a first person shooter and you have to get a Wii-mote that is shaped like a .45. Now that would be fun!

Unfortunately, they took the giant Cup O' Noodles bowl out of Times Square last year.

I joke brohem, I joke!

[Tyro1]

That looks amazing... It will be good having the story set in a real city (i assume) rather than a charcterisation of one.

[wild_whiskey]

Looks very cool, but there is absolutely nothing in this world that could convince me to buy a PS3.

I will continue to pray for Tekken6, and this, to get ported to X360.

[Brinbro]

I thought it was already established that this was going to the X360 as well because of the smaller userbase of the PS3 they couldn't rationalize an exclusive.

No?

[ghostdeini]

No?

yep, you're right. I read an article today how Rockstar isn't making this a PS3 exclusive because Sony just launched the console and haven't sold enough units to justify Rockstar's massive expenditure of resources and time. So rejoice, this will be coming to 360 and the PS3.

[herpsky]

GTA5 will be on nintendo DS

Think about that possibility...

haha
