So close. But I'm not sure whether I should jump into single or multiplayer first.

 

[got2bekidding]

Awesome thread Himuro, very nice work!

 

[TTG]

DAY ONE!

 

[grandjedi6]

Nice thread and nod to Scarface.

What have you done?!

 

[DayShallCome]

Nice thread and nod to Scarface.

Damnation. Did you not read the top of the OP?

Edit: Great thread. I wasn't initially looking forward to this one (it will be my first GTA), but I'm getting pretty excited about it.

 

[MightyHedgehog]

My bad...got too excited. Mods, please correct my fucking up of this fine thread.

 

[Keyser Soze]

I am sure a mod can fix this, lets not dwell and ruin the first page...

 

[Loudninja]

Wow, very nice topic!

 

[rakka]

Nice thread and nod to Scarface.

was the first line of the OP :lol

 

[Goreomedy]

Wow, Himuro, you give good header.

I'm actually liking the new weapon icons now that we've got direct feed shots and not scans.

See, I knew you'd come around. Unfortunately, it's too late to call off the hit.

 

[Eric WK]

Oh baby.

 

[Tokubetsu]

So close. But I'm not sure whether I should jump into single or multiplayer first.

Same, I think I'll play a ton of SP first and then as soon as I hit a frustrating mission I'll jump into MP and play some Cops N crooks and then some hangman's noose.

 

[jaydogg691]

Oh the anticipation for this game is high. Will be playing single player until Friday and then jump into the multiplayer. It's best that you know the city before jumping into the multiplayer.

 

[Router]

It has begun!

 

[rakka]

yeah the header, thread is great

also typo in first post ( Physics Engine: Euphoria )

[brandonh83]

Fantastic job on the thread! Got the PS3 CE reserved just today

 

[SIP YEK NOD]

I want this game so bad it hurts

I am thinking of grabbing a case of vodka, and downing a bottle a day to pass the time.

 

[dabig2]

This game will be hot,hot,hot

I'm on your side on this. The hud isn't all cluttered up.

 

[Odrion]

Does this game now have regenerative health? edit: oh yeah, it's surrounding the radar.

"- Missions are far more dynamic now and have a different structure. Many missions start at specific times now, similarly to Shenmue. If a train leaves at 10:00 am and you arrive at 10:01 am, you fail the mission."

^ wasn't this in other GTAs also?

 

[MrCompletely]

awesome job OP

 

[raYne]

Nice thread and nod to Scarface.

:lol I knew this was going to happen.

 

[NZNova]

It has begun. Great OP!

I don't think the mission would fail, you'd just have to kill time until the clock ticked back around.

 

[N.A]

Awesome OP!

13 days!

 

[Sean]

Great job on the OP.

First time I'm seeing the HUD, it looks very nice but seems way too small IMO. Especially the mini-map part, it's gonna be hard to look at that while driving.

 

[$1148 Jack]

I thought you said 22nd Himuro? Great OP btw.
Edit: ok yeah the excess threads are getting crazy.

 

[pizzaguysrevenge]

was the first line of the OP :lol

Where?

 

[AkuMifune]

From this point on, all of my waking moments are just killing time until GTA4 is in my hands.

 

[Riptwo]

Forgive me if this has been asked a thousand times before in other threads, but has there been confirmation as to what's on the soundtrack included with the LE? And although I've already preordered the LE through EB, is there any other cool swag at other retailers? I saw the package with free gamerpics around, but I don't think that's enough to sway me.

 

[bjork]

I don't remember missions like this ever.

I know that in III, you had something like 6 hours to go from Staunton to the Red Light District to kill Salvatore. The time would change depending on when you started the mission, but you were always given the same amount of time to get there and do the deed. There was also the one tree of missions you got from the mechanic guy, and you could only go there during a certain stretch of the day for missions. So it's not exactly the same thing, but close enough imo.

I haven't played these games in some time, but I'm sure that's not the only example.

 

[x3sphere]

This looks epic. Nice job on the thread, btw.

 

[plaidtopia]

Hell yeah! We got a thread again! Awesome OP. Just two weeks!

 

[Pimpbaa]

Come on.....come on....come on.....

 

[got2bekidding]

So where can you see the amount of cash you have?

 

[bjork]

Well, during that mission, you are already ON a mission. It is a timed mission. This is completely entirely. This feature means you won't always have a mission right when you're assigned one. You'll have to wait so you can even do it.

I guess if you want to see waiting as a feature, that's cool. I rather just go get it and do it.

 

[Jel0man]

It begins!

 

[Aladuf]

Nice! I'm ready for some GTA

 

[Riptwo]

I'm not even sure about it myself. It could be neat.

I'm just hoping that you aren't assigned too many missions at once in a short time frame, since I'll have Dead Rising related OCD flashbacks.

 

[bjork]

I'm not even sure about it myself. It could be neat.

For me it'll depend on the passage of time, and if I can still carry out a mission if I'm in the middle of being chased.

I'm real glad they ditched the whole eating/working out thing in this game, too. That was pretty much the only thing I disliked about SA.

 

[Liquid_Bike]

I for one really like the new HUD its very minimalistic, but still stylish.

 

[Vyer]

Damn two weeks seems like a long time.

I will miss the comments about me be fat in SA "back of yo head looks like a pack of hotdogs"

 

[EphemeralDream]

That bridge shot is amazing.

 

[Fletcher]

Since my PS3 stopped reading discs, I haven't turned my 360 on for longer than 5 minutes. Help prevent my system from busting before it comes out. This shit is serious.

 

[Vaxadrin]

Since my PS3 stopped reading discs, I haven't turned my 360 on for longer than 5 minutes.

Does not compute.

 

[gnarkill bill]

Im alittle paranoid about my 360 giving out before this launches...I would cry late into the night.

 

[Fletcher]

Does not compute.

I own both systems and have one down and out. Limits my options come April 29th. I've waited too damn long for this game to not be able to play it.
