Are You Happy About the Release Date?

I'm not. Why is it coming out april 29th, if they previewed the "near final build" of the game. It makes no sense why it should take that much more time to finish the game. It should take a month tops, so we should have been able to get the game in march. O well, april will be here soon enough... What do you guy think about the date?

Yes I'm happy with it. Gives them more time to polish up the graphics, look for minor bugs and stable the framerate even more. Its a win win.

I'm not bothered. We'll all wait for however long it takes anyway and no ammount of complaining will change it (nor do I actualy want to change it if R* think it will take that long)

ACtually man the next three months will have nothing to do with polishing out bugs. expect during the next 3 months rockstar making the millions of copies they plan to sell, aswell as printing out cover art and most importantly selling the game to retailers. The game is finished man, they are done writing gta IV. If u didnt hear me right, GTA IV is complete!

I thought 25th April was a ridiculous release date but err..things turned out differently.

 

Im actually alright about this all, having an actual date to look forward to is reassuring. Now we wait nervous.gif

the one thing that irritates me a tiny bit is the politics and business of release dates. That is to say... the game could be ready for release in late march/early april... but for whatever reason from a financial standpoint it'll make more sense to release it at the end of april. That stuff annoys the crap out of me, but they do it all the time with games, music, and movies so i guess that's just a fact of life.

Not thrilled about it no.. Tbh I wish they would just release the game at it's current stage (which seems smooth enough from the previews) and then gradually release a few patches to solve any minor bugs. I just think the end of April release is really unnecessary..

I'm happy with the release date,isn't Spring break near April?(U.S)

Mine's the last full week of April. Unfortunatly that dosen't include the 28th, so I guess i'll have to start end of the year slaking really early. biggrin.gif

Im a lil f*cking pissed off, cause my ps3 is at home in my dad's nice home theater with all the essential HD gaming stuff, And i wont be able to play the game much because by the time of the year thats when classes start to pick up and get hard and i cant be repeatedly be coming back home each weekend cause i would f*ck up in my classes. So i would probably get 2 weekends worth of gameplay coming back home before i can really play it in the summer after the fifteenth of june when finals r done. And then i ll probably go on these forums and read about the games awesome features and other sh*t and ruin the suprise for myself. If it were to come out in march i would be able to play it all spring break but, No R* has to have the game come out on the latest time they said they would angry.gif. f*ck it im just goin to forget about GTA now its just goin to piss me off, Im only goin to find out about the new game the few weekends i play it myself. (can i somehow lock this forum from myself, lol.) Blah wat a bummer, i hope they polish so f*cking good that it ll bust on my ps3 on accident

I hear you, but the graphics are still being polished. It may be complete, but things still need to be ironed out in the last couple of months.

F*ck no.

 

Well I'm glad that we finally have a solid date, but honestly to find out I have to wait until the end of April as opposed to my initial guess (February/March) is pretty much a bummer. R* are driving me crazy.

spring break is usually somewhere between mid february or mid march for most colleges. April 29th is basically a week or two before finals. Thanks Rockstar, just what i needed a week before finals. While I'm happy having a release date, I'm bummed that its so far away. Now that the release date is here I can't care about the game until it comes out since I have to worry about graduating college and getting a job. Dammit Rockstar why a week before finals? millions of college students everywhere will get sh*ttier grades on that every important 30-40 percent of your grade final in all their classes.

Update! Shortly after adding the info to its website and sending out fan mailers, Rockstar also discharged an official press statement confirming that the April 29 date is a worldwide release.
