GTA IV Countdown - weebls-stuff forums

*Youlikeyams?* · 17-04-2008, 10:23 PM

Anyone else getting excited yet? The reviews have started cropping up (no surprises as to review scores) and details are becoming more and more clear - the mobile phone being key to the game (I'd call that a reflection of real life), the new technologies and features in the game like the Euphoria engine and all of that - so I thought it'd be nice for everyone to post what they're looking forward to the most when GTA IV hits on the 29th.

Me? I'm looking forward to the comedy clubs and the lineups performing.

It's out. Why are you reading this when you could be playing it?

i can't fucking wait

i've been looking forward to this more than my birthday on sunday

also, "brilliantly, the comedy club isn't the only place you'll find gervais in gta iv, but we're staying tight-lipped about where else he'll emerge" quite clearly means he'll be a playable character in multiplayer, i'd bet a fiver on it

I'm getting my dissertation and production project done in time so I can buy this without having to worry about deadlines. Man almighty, but I am looking forward to this game. Edge magazine did a sixteen page interview with Sam Houser, and spent an entire page of teeny tiny writing listing the reasons why they love it. I may not emerge for the first day I get it.

Oh my god Gervais is in it :O. Thats news to me

It looks like the games gonna be awesome. Comes out just before exams which is a pain in the arse

Bet the bastards do it on purpose

*bert_* · 18-04-2008, 07:26 AM

I have never bought a GTA game, as my mam would have/will kill me.

My friend makes sexual gestures whenever someone mentions it, though.

*Cooldudebob* · 18-04-2008, 09:16 AM

I would be looking forward to it as i have it preordered but my crappy 360 has crapped out on me.

my 8 year old sister has played all of them

*Tiggs* · 18-04-2008, 10:56 AM

I've pre-ordered my copy from Zavvi just so that I can get 3 months free xbox live gold. I'm such a cheap bastard.

*La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo* · 18-04-2008, 11:01 AM

Mmmm, I get 30% off, nice.

My mate's buying it me so I get his 30% discount at Playtime.

Awesome.

midget · 18-04-2008, 11:23 AM

apparently at hmv you get £130 worth of vouchers and 1000 microsoft points if you preorder it for 360 with them (edit: it's true, you get the 1000 points for preordering the regular game and the 1000 points and vouchers if you preorder the special edition)

and at game/gamestation you get some gamerpics and 500 microsoft points if you preorder it for 360

I was the same with bioshock last year, it was out two days after, so on my birthday I was like "this is great but"

I'm buying it from game so I can use the gamerpoints toward buying the DLC. I do like how everywhere knows that it's going to be such a huge sale they all feel the need to trick you into buying it in a specific place

I am trying to do this and not coping all that well.

What I'm most excited for will probably be the zero punctuation review a week after release.

*ynnekkenny* · 18-04-2008, 02:39 PM

my birthday is this monday and my dissertation is due next friday needless to say this will be an awful week for me. the only thing keeping me going is GTA:IV 11 days people!!!

*B34N* · 19-04-2008, 06:58 PM

*Mat^* · 19-04-2008, 07:21 PM
