the wii stytle is jsut very awquad and hard to use in many games

anyway back on track-
i havnt been on for like 2 weeks is there any news on release date yet

March/April 08 now weep

Have they mentioned anything about car mechanics? Will they be more realistic with physics and handling or is it going to be classic GTA style craziness zooming around everywhere?

I wish they'd do a GTA4: Tokyo or something, that'd be mad...gain rep with Japanese mafia, learn a couple of martial arts moves, and everything would be nice and bright and neons and everything instead of the run down San Andreas type of environments.

R* is trying to make the game as realistic as possible. even the slightest bump will be reflected in the car, not all surface would be even, and I think just like in real life, you'll have to watch for holes and stuff if you don't wanna screw up the car' suspension.
physics is getting improved all around the game. and so it's AI. zooming around everywhere wouldn't be the best way to get things done, I don't think you can crash everything in your path, without getting notice (specially with the new "wanted" mechanics). For what I read, you car won't blow up for anything other than explosives (I'm guessing only grenades, rockets or driving it through any kind of inflammable outlets (such the gas pump in the trailer)).

I wonder how much will that affect the enjoyment of the franchise. I personally love going around creating has much mayhem as possible, blowing s**t up. I remember in SA driving my car up the freeway above LS, getting out of it and seeing how much of a pile up I could make ( (I got about 17 blown up cars once)

Well it makes driving missions a lot easier, but it'd be annoying if you wanted to blow shit up. Will they blow up if you hit the petrol tank like in Driver 3?

If anything, I think Rockstar will atleast include a code to help creat more mayhem, they are cool about stuff like that. lol

I guess it can blow up if you shot an expose petrol tank or something that could start a spark. Then again, I could be wrong.

what I figure it's that don't matter how much you wreck the car smashing and crashing throw everything, it won't blow up. It'll be totalled and useless, but won't go "kaboom!"

and i think a "blow up everything in sight" cheat code will be a sure thing 😱

Well as far as you know.....you could be wrong and there could be nothing to worry about.

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

😎 I guess so! 😆

😄 I was refering to the big bang cheat (the one that makes all vehicles explode)

but it's a good question. In the gameplay review, they say that killing people it's handled in a much realistic way (when niko kills the blackmailer in pointblack). Will that include explosion? it doesn't need to be as gory as in manhunt 2, but it could be very explicit. they said it's not longer cartoony (like when sniping people in previous GTA's), but will there be other kinds of desmembrations besides beheading? will we still be able to use chainsaws and flamethrowers?

I wonder just how realistic the game will be, and how many things will no longer be possible

.... just a thought.

That's stupid. I don't play GTA for realistic driving. If I wanted that I'd play Gran Turismo. I play GTA to kill everyone I look at, zoom down the streets as fast as I can, and blow shit up. Enough with this realistic shit.

😑

ooooo....kay

you better tell that to R*, mate

New screens vid.

ah shit, I cannot believe they have pushed back the release date again, I knew this would happen. It was happening far too quickly for my liking, I remember waiting for Vice City years ago and it took forever for it to come out.

After looking at the map....YIKES! it is huge and I canna wait to try and memorize it, months out of my life for a game.

Not sure about the main protragonist, yet again it was the same with CJ...I'll deal with it.

They pushed it back again?

Or are you just very slow?

very slow I believe.

Last magazine I bought said October, and that magazine was barely a month or so old.

Ah ok, you kinda made me wonder if it had been delayed even more.

its delayed until feb-march 2008

Do want.

I loved the video of them painting it, that was cool. 😛

Plus a trailer next week. 😄
