GTA IV Hype Thread

It's disappointing to know that no other reviews will be out until after the game releases. I do not doubt the game will satisfy, but its always shady to see embargos like this.

If the game is truly great, let me hear about it from a number of different sources. I won't hesitate because of a few 9.5's, Rockstar. More reviews means more perspectives and more information. IGN's review didn't mention side missions in any detail.

I think I'll try to finish Heavenly Sword this weekend. That, along with Gran Turismo and the Metal Gear Online beta, should preoccupy me as well as anything else until Monday night.

I read about this game today, and now I want it.

Hahaha, my brother was going to buy it no matter what I said. I should've gone with his deal but I decided to chip in half. Now I get GTA4 goodness for half the price!

Opposed to for free?

Yeah but.. he got Super Smash Bros Melee all to himself when it came out. I don't want that to happen again.

The reviews are starting to roll in now that the embargo has been lifted.

GameTrailers video review:

Currently has a metacritic score of 100. This is going to be amazing!

*DeathsHand thinks maybe he should have pre-ordered this one*

Haven't seen a perfect 10 from IGN in awhile... Least not that I've noticed...
