GTA IV Thread **Spoilers**

[xxhaloownerxx]

I'm not sure if this is the wrong place to post this, but, anyone get a RROD since playing?

[x2s3w4]

Attention! May be some spoilers. I'm only 5% in so far.

OK I want to emphasize I completely SUUUUUUUCK so far at this game. I've played all the other GTA games on PC and have never played on Xbox like I'm playing now. I'm only 5% into the game, so far the game is pretty easy, but I'm going to be in BIG trouble soon. I can't drive, I can't run or fight well so I might need a little help.
Has anyone found any weapons so far? I've looked a little. If you find some note where you find them.
Has anyone/everyone found that rich guy that gives Nicco $100? Are there any more people like that?
I don't care about spoilers.

The game is TOTALLY awesome so far!!!

hey guys just a note on spoilers.

this game has only just come out, and while the point of this thread is to share discoveries, can we all be VERY careful on spoiling the game for others.

either make a very strong, bold clear indication you are about to release spoiler information (like the post above), or PM the person who you want to reply too. oh and if possible, dont write your spoiler information in white text as some people do. while it does work for the initial post, as soon as someone quotes you, the text then appears visible.

we've all had something spoiled before and know how much it sucks.

on a side note, im so jealous lol, i had to import my copy to avoid getting a censored version...so i gotta wait until next Tuesday 6 May to play worth the wait though.

Hey, Are you saying that even with the red letters and larger letters that's not enough.
I'm just looking for info, I'm not trashing.
I was hoping to be pointed at a few spare weapons lying around. And the part I was referring to wasn't part of the story line. Is that still the same thing?

And it's totally worth waiting for, it's a great game.

What kind of music is it i the game?
hope it's not Didelly doo I love you concept, have that already on the ear-killer AKA radio.
I liked the San andreas and Vice City songs, though PC version had the user tracks, how is it on the 360 and PS3 can you add your own music collection?

Played for a couple of hours on X360. First impressions:

Good: Graphics are excellent. It's not going to compete with the best of the best PC games, but it is such a huge leap over the PS2 and Xbox...the shadows on the train underpasses are really nive, IMHO. Nice little touches like the occasional blowing garbage add to the realism. No frame rate issues at all so far.

GPS is nice...I still have a tendency to drive by watching the radar since I've been doing this for so long, but you don't really have to now.

Not so good: I prefer the HUD from the old games...the text is too small and placed so far in the corner that I sometimes miss it. Give me back the big, bold, easy-to-read notices of what neighborhood I'm in, how much money I have, etc.

I tried to get on multiplayer to try it out, but I couldn't get on. I guess Live is swamped or something.

Most awesome acievement ever: One of the achievements is named "Warm Coffee", given for getting one of your dates to invite you inside. Kudos to Rock Star for making fun of their Hot Coffee fiasco! Take that, Jack Thompson!

lol nah mate, i was indicating that what you did was perfect lol. you read it the wrong way i think.

either make a very strong, bold clear indication you are about to release spoiler information (like the post above)

was using you as a good example.

Does anyone know of a way to take screenshots within the game on the PS3? Plenty of choice angles and scenes that I'd love to capture for wallpapers and such. Has anyone tryed the PRNTSCRN with a keyboard attached?

I haven't had any freezing issues. Single player is great, and yes I've found the guy that gives you money(find him again, he wants you to drive him to buy crack). Multiplayer is AWESOME! I also can't wait for the mission where I get to kill me some fake Jack Thompson.

Be sure to shoot the orange glowing pidgeons, there are 200 of them around. =D

Regarding spoilers, just encode them into hex or octal or something and provide people a link to a site that will translate it. IE http://nickciske.com/tools/octal.php
