This is Grand Theft Auto 4
Where drugs are dealed and hoes are hoes
All is done in the virtual space
Clips are emptied into an enemies face
We all should enjoying this game today
But you can thank XBOX 360 for that delay
Excellence is what Rockstar was trying to strive
But thank Microsoft for being stupid for no hard drives

Honeal2g5932d ago (Edited 5932d ago )

it only makes sense i mean they might as well make sure it works well on 360 since thats goin to be the version that sells the most..dont even try to twist my words cause i am not implying that ps3 wont sell just that 360 will sell more wether that is 1 million more or 10,000 more .... i will only take back that statement if Devil May Cry sells more on ps3 or obviously if i;m wrong.

And when it comes down to it the they really just want to sell as many copies as they can and reel in those Profits... i honeslty feel this will push more sales For ps3 and 360 and sell atleast 10 million before the year is up .

lucas1075932d ago (Edited 5932d ago )

just a few days back on here they had an interview with someone from rockstar (dont remember who the lead something) and he said that it was problems with the ps3 for the delay not the 360. 360 has always been ahead in development and the ps3 is just catching up now. thats why gta4 has always been shown on the 360. check stuff out before you sound stupid again.

Ahmadinejad5932d ago

was that pure speculation or u work in the rockstar studios?? 360 delayed it?? haha. just look at the past. again and again these dum...

roadkillers5932d ago (Edited 5932d ago )

His rap? That was tight son ya'll mean?

Just playing it was kinda lame.

joemomma5932d ago

Dude are you an idiot? That was not a statement from rockstar now please read your sources before you post them.

hades075932d ago

Actually you need a Hard Drive to play this game on the 360. Its the first game coming out where it is required.

InMyOpinion5932d ago

All previews we have seen are of the 360 version. How come?

lucas1075932d ago

"In exclusive chat, Rockstar Games' Jeronimo Barrera says game is about the immigrant experience and PS3 is partly to blame for delay."
seems to say it is

FirstknighT5932d ago

And still developers like Rockstar complain about the problems of the ps3 and sony fanboys choose to ignore and spread lies. Rockstar is not the first to have problems with the ps3.

Stop ignoring the facts!

moparful995932d ago

Hmm its still a surprise to me how anti ps3 loyalists can take things so horribly out of context. Notice the keyword in that statement by one guy(not rockstar as a whole) in which he says the ps3 was PARTLY to blame. This statement lends itself to other problems arising. Which is where the disk space and hard drive problems for the 360 version also contributed. Back in october when the game was supposed to release Game Informer had an article in which they reported that the 360 demo they watched wasnt running well at all(issue 174. pg.26). They cited framerate issues, less then inspiring graphics and just a general lack of polish So you fanbots can shout it to the mountains that the ps3 version caused the delay and speculate that sony is the reason the 360 version didnt launch, but in the end the game just wasnt ready for either console. Now that this game has had alot of time for spit and polish we should all be in for a treat. Both versions will sell alot of copies and considering the ps3 has seen a huge spike in popularity and sales, dont count it out of this fight... Move on fanboys......

lucas1075931d ago

thats not the only place i have read that the ps3 has always been behind in development for gta4. why is it assumed that if i say anything bad about the ps3 i must be a anti ps3 fanboy. well... i have a ps3 and i enjoy it. im just going by what i read. also sorry but im in the thinking that this site is anti xbox and pro ps3. most of the news is ps3 when i see tones of news xbox but it never gets posted. if anything good is said about 360 its full of comments just as fast as the ones about ps3. notice how you didnt say the first post was a fanboy cause he was pro ps3 and since i said something bad about a ps3 i must be a fanboy. well i own both. and really i play neither. just had a baby and im a stay at home dad and 3 week old boys like to wake up when you pick up your controller. hes perfect so i dont mind. sorry this went astray. just once again. delays for gta4 from what i read most were ps3 related. not to say xbox had nothing to do with it but i do believe it woulda been out atleast weeks earlier for 360 if they didnt have the same release date. and i never said ps3 was the only cause for the delay just to counter what the first guy said who did say xbox was the only cause for the delay i gave him a link to say otherwise. remember anti xbox is ok but anti ps3 isnt here.

SCThor5931d ago

cause LOTS of M$ money is involved...you don't bite the hand that feed you, as simply as that.

lucas1075931d ago

i agree ms paid 50 mil for the content you and shouldnt bite that hand but i dont think ms paid them anything to get them to make the game for 360 as well because it just makes sense from a business perspective to make it for 360 as well to more then double your market. i still think it was prolly 60% ps3 40% 360 problems for the delay only way to explain how 360 was always ahead on development. anyone know which was lead platform. ive always read neither were lead.

Damn... that rap was corny.

Alcohog5932d ago

Did you really just call that a rap...?
I'm sorry but if you don't know that song you should just crawl back into the womb you came out of in 1995.

OpiZA5932d ago

Wow. The anger :) Well done, you're hardcore.

Marceles5932d ago

lol @ rap...wow, ive finally found someone thats never seen scarface...pfft, or never listened to flashback fm on GTA3

bluhefner5932d ago

LMAO @ how U guy's failed in being smartass's. If you read Floydsr's comment you'd understand Opiza's not talking about the song in the video.

The Physics are nice,and am looking forward to this game but saints row physics are just as good...

joemomma5932d ago

No they are not. GTA bends saints row over, rapes it, then demands payment. Thats how much better gta iv is then saints row.

m91058265932d ago

I suggest you watch again, and learn something about game physics before you make yourself look like more of a fool. It's called Endorphin (or Euphoria for consoles). Go to NaturalMotins website. Download the Learning Edition. Play with it. Enjoy it. Understand what put's it head and shoulders above "physics" engine. Euphoria is like giving AI a working nervous system, and completely gets rid of canned animation in physics routines.

Grand Theft Auto 4 Anniversary: The Beginning of the Age of RAGE

Grand Theft Auto 4 is an important game for Rockstar, not least because it was the first title in the franchise to use the newly created RAGE engine.

Wasn’t the Table Tennis game the first to use RAGE?

isarai357d ago

Was about to say the same, but they do say first "in the franchise" so 🤷

The fact it hasnt been remastered is insane.

Fifteen Years On, 'Grand Theft Auto IV' Is Still the Series’ Best

The series' most overhyped and overrated (especially by critics) more like.

Number1TailzFan360d ago

Not sure tbh.. I'd say 3 was the most overrated. It's pretty rough to go back to, it was quite rough even trying it just after Vice City. Lack of humour and vehicles that had the weight of polystyrene with top speeds to match.

VC & the stories games (even LCS) were all fun. I remember there being a lot of praise for GTA 3 on TV and in game mags, saying it was a Dreamcast killer of a game or words to that effect, and honestly after playing it on PC I didn't think it was that special and kind of dull, had the odd moment of fun but hardly anything. I heard they cut online multiplayer at the last moment for PC, shame because it could've made all the difference.

Would've loved to have seen what kind of cartoony GTA style game they could've done on Dreamcast as a competitor, I bet something along the lines of Simpsons Hit & Run would've worked well.

BlackTar187359d ago

@numberz How can the game that defined a generation and was copied by everyone be overrated? Was a asinine comment

seanpitt23359d ago

For me 4 was better than 5 was more realistic and the physics was on another level! 5 was a major let down in that department!

Number1TailzFan359d ago

@blacktar you have your opinion i have mine. I found the game dull, and it is for the most part. It set the foundation for the much superior SA and VC however.

KwietStorm_BLM358d ago

You say GTA III is overrated because it's rough to go back to and rough to play after Vice City. Your entire opinion is in hindsight. Of course it's rough going back to it today. It came out over 20 years ago. That doesn't take away from the fact that it pioneered a lot and was a paradigm shift for a lot of trends in game development today. Vice City in a lot of ways is just a more refined version of III. It was San Andreas that took the big leap forward from a design perspective. If III doesn't release, who knows if the open world genre would be what it is now. How can that be overrated?

1nsomniac359d ago (Edited 359d ago )

Not at all. My most played game of all time. Truly stunning accomplishment in gaming and with PC graphics mods it just took it to levels beyond anything that came before and possibly even after.

People who moan about it generally tend to be people who played it on under powered consoles and couldn’t handle the more realistic car physics. It was the slightly more realistic approach that made it stand out more. Absolutely love it. In fact I always said Vice city was my favourite of all time. But after going back to the remaster I realised 4 was actually the best.

Profchaos359d ago (Edited 359d ago )

I'm no critic and I consider it the best games in the franchise after recently replaying every entry it's story when paired in conjunction with it's DLC was and still is amazing.

shinoff2183358d ago

Lol. Fun fact. That dlc cost a certain green colored console 50 million for exclusiveness. Un heard of back then. Just to point out the hypocrisy of the 3rd party exclusive agenda going on.

Anyway how the dlc better then the base game by a mile. Lol imo

DigitallyAfflicted358d ago

I've enjoyed gta4 the most from all the others too.

DarXyde359d ago

San Andreas holds a special place in my heart. Honestly, I couldn't get into IV at all. Didn't even finish it. I had some pride in playing it at first because I'm originally a New Yorker, but it just didn't do it for me.

To each their own.

shinoff2183358d ago (Edited 358d ago )

Gta sa for sure. To this day my favorite. My least fav is gta 4 easily. Gta 4 made me feel like the dude in next friday trying to take the cd back talking about i cant get jiggy wit this.

Maybe looking back it would be 3 but 3 did so damn much for gaming in general. . My first gta was of course the top downs so the series has came a long way.

notachance358d ago

Yeah I remembered falling asleep playing the last mission in GTA4.. the most boring protagonist (out of all the voiced protag), and the town is too small.

Not really

Overrated

Boring

Liberty City despite being a reimagined version for the HD era lacked any variety

Lacked the GTA fun charm overall

Niko was bland compared to past protagonists like Tommy, CJ or Victor

blackblades359d ago (Edited 359d ago )

GTA 2 was the best, lol my only owned GTA game. Vice city was alright when I rented it back then. I cant really say which is the best cause those the only 2 games i played but GTA 2 was fun on PC back in the day. Closes game to it that I enjoyed was SR3 and I dont care what people say. That none serious tone was fun enjoyable.

banger88359d ago

Like hell it is. San Andreas was far better, much more fun and a better game overall.

isarai359d ago

Nah, it's a masterpiece in attention to detail and the amount of immersive systems at play. But it really isn't very fun, ESPECIALLY when compared to the previous games in the series. Like tons of things are just wonky and actively kneecap lots of experimentation, or is just lame. Like why do I take huge damage when falling into water, why can I only stand in very specific large trucks when they are moving but not smaller trucks and vehicles, why is the melee combat such a massive down grade from GTA SA and GTA IV, why is the euphoria nowhere near as reactive, why is being drunk using a rasterized animation of staggering rather than the far more entertaining euphoria GTAIV and RDR used when you were drunk, why do npc vehicles barely react to you popping there tires even at high speed, etc etc.

I've always loved playing around in GTA games world. Like the campaigns are great but the majority of my time was always spent just playing in the open world. Yet GTAV is the only game in the series I never really returned to after beating it, it just lacks that fun factor the others have, I spent more time in GTA SA remastered than GTAV

chicken_in_the_corn359d ago

It's one of my least favourite GTA games. It's clunky, the ai is exploitable, it's far too long and the writing is absolutely awful.
