Somthing new for the new year?


Recommended Posts

I beleive somebody from rockstar will sit up all night the 31st and then, at 00:00 he/she/it will press send, and the whole world will knwo the exact release date...

 

That or...

 

A screenshot or two...

 

And why do people want the excact release date so badly?

 

I would rather get 10 screenshots then a release date...

 

I know when it will be released... Between march and late aprill... That's good enough for me...

I think so many of us want to know the release date because it will be a good indication that the game really will release by the date set, but yeah like you said It looks like the game will arrive in March or April and not before. It is not THAT long to wait though.

 

As for Rockstar releasing new screenshots who knows it would be nice, and yes some NEW previews would be welcome the Kikizo 3rd preview is long overdue now.

 

How about IGN or Gamespot have a hands-on impressions preview next month:inlove:

Today I noted next issue of EGM I think, offers a look at GTA4 and not sure if that comes in January, but one thing to expect word, if not TOO old and already discussed online biggrin.gifcool.gif

is that a Uk based magazine or an abroad magazine?

E.G.M. (Electronic Gaming Monthly) is only sold in the United States I think.

Just a press story on a preview is what I'd like in lieu of a video preview of gameplay... You get game stills with press coverage as well...two for one!

They could easily describe more of how things work in the game and retain plot mystery.

 

Electronic Gaming Magazine has been a long term publication in the USA, I confirm.

I think they were around in the very early days of gaming as well... I'll have to dig up my early issue... It featured a picture of the stand up arcade game for Qbert from Mylstar.

I loved that game and wanted one to own, had to settle for a picture of it and regular trips to the arcade. I bought several versions later, but now thank God for MAME32!

Well, if you are one of those who had already waited many months only to hear that it was delayed ...

It's a too long wait...

I don't know if you remember but when R* update the website of San Andreas (somes month, or weeks before the game comes ut) they show the map and we were able to see some gameplay video from CJ going to haircute, or buying new clothes....

 

Maybe it will happen with IV for new year. monocle.gif

I know, I have been waiting for years like just about everyone else here, we all knew a 4th Grand Theft Auto title was in development for quite some time before it was announced at E3 in 2006.

 

I have to agree though the waiting seriously sucks, and without trying to be negative here I cannot see the game releasing before March in all honesty.

I expect the game to come out in March/April. The last hype cycle of screens and previews'll probably begin in January/February.

 

Not that any of that make sense, since I'm purely guessing. But I doubt we'll get anything on New Years Day...*fingers crossed* though.

 

We'll get more when the gettin's good, according to R*! bored.gif

I remember, I would like to see just how big the map will be in the game, but I kind of think Rockstar will not have interactive maps this time around or short gameplay clips (not until the game is released at least) because of their promise to reveal much less information on the game. At this point they have only revealed vague details on the game on the whole.

You guys have to admit that we knew so much about Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas that barely anything was a surprise at all, at least not for me. That did not stop my enjoyment of the game though, because it is a great chapter in the Grand Theft Auto franchise, but not my favourite.

I was disappointed by SA...

 

I heard from so many places, that it would take you half an hour to get from one corner to the other...

 

I though it would take 6 months to complete the story...

 

...

 

It was nothing like that... And I certainly didn't expect so much pointless desert or water...

I was here when Vice was newly released and I owned 3 prior to that, so San An's pre release 'party' here was one I also attended... I saw the guessing, the images, the overall anxiousness... Still, it didn't change the impact I felt as the game opened up as I played it. I was very impressed and happy and that led to eventual disappointment in the PSP series, of which, I bought two PSPs to play. The nice thing is the PSP packs usefulness like an iPhone does and it has a long life due to the fact. The only thing faltering there is movie and vid selection and possible longevity.

 

EGM (Monthly) promises a preview upcoming, but along with other games coming too so it may not be as large as one would hope. I'll keep my eyes glued for press here other then that one, but people are quick to dismiss printed media due to an approx 3 month backlog of the information, but I also think that information is kept somewhat exclusive for that reason too
