MysteryGamer Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I agree you must be a minority here who feels that way. I am looking forward to a lot of forthcoming releases this year but none have me anywhere near as hyped as Grand Theft Auto IV and this game is an exception because I hardly ever look for information on a single game as much as I can but I do with Grand Theft Auto IV. April the 29th cannot come soon enough in my opinion I actually hate waiting.

$tr4nger Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 No, your not the only one. I'm not excited about it right now because with all the hassle I'm having to deal with over the next few months, the wait till the end of April for GTAIV is going to go so damn slow for me... Basically the release just seems far off at the moment and thats killed the excitement for me. Of course when it gets nearer I will start to excited again.

Adam Jensen Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I'm not excited either. But thats maybe because I dont have a next gen console.

gta_fan_yay Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I would pay 250$ to play it now instead of april 29th But on the other hand, waiting for something makes it soooooo much better when you play it than.

supermongie Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I, myself, have one tiny concern. Someone please correct me. The X360 and PS3 versions of the game will be identical on release (29th April) agreed?! But surely the PS3 will get a substandard version considering the following point. The X360 release of GTA4 will be on a Dual layer disc (Max space 9 GB), so what the bloody hell fills the remaining 41 GB on the Blu-ray disc!?!!??!??! I hope - fingers crossed - the PS3 version will have uncompressed video and audio (seriously - take a look at those X360 screen shots - HI-Def!?!?) I have BOTH systems and (FANBOY I know) have pre-ordered a version for each console - if I want the extra 2 downloadable episodes I'm going to have to!! With 'NO LOAD TIMES' I can not imagine them releasing it on more than one disc (for X360), maybe they'll specify that you need 20GB of free space to uncompress the data on first load? Your thoughts! ) Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/309523-is-it-just-me/#findComment-1057453084 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, for god's sake can't they just release screenshots like once a day or something? The build up is very weak as of now. In SA we got to know about these cool badass features and actually got to know the mpa.. WHERE IS THE DAMNED WEBSITE?! The official website.. the map thingy? Like SA had..

mudriy Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Waiting for GTA IV is similar to being stranded in a desert with no water, having to walk ten miles to the nearest well. The journey through the barren wastelands of the desert is bound to be full of suffering; and the feeling thirst, combined with the unforgiving heat of the scorching sun, is sure to be an almost unbearable experience; but for those that make it, the water is going to seem all the more satisfying.

Snake Without a Tongue Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Yup, you're the only one not excited. I was oblivious to GTA3, and VC.

freshlaundryX Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Honestly, I don't think I've ever been more excited for a game. I'm more worried that my expectations are too high rather than my not feeling the hype machine enough. I saw San Andreas in the Orig. xbox bin for $19.99 and thought about it very hard. I already beat it though and it is still somewhat fresh in my memory. Would I still enjoy that experience? -------------------- Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/309523-is-it-just-me/#findComment-1057453430 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudriy Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 What if the well is dry, and filled with lousy sand™, when we finally crawl over to it?! Then we die, allegorically speaking. And if GTA IV does disappoint (but there is almost no way this can occur), then for many of us, myself included, it would surely feel like a death of a sort.

Johnny Burbank Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I can relate with what the OP is saying. I remember being stoked before VC and SA, and the games exceeded my high expectations. They remain among my two favorite games -- make that two favorite items of entertainment period including movies -- of all time. The thing that has me somewhat meh on GTA4 is the location. I just can't get up for a NYC based game. I never could, and never was too keen on NYC movies either except The Warriors. I hope they can make it fun though. One key to making it fun wil be being able to go up in tall buildings, Statue of Happiness, etc. and get off the streets.

MysteryGamer Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 (edited) Waiting for GTA IV is similar to being stranded in a desert with no water, having to walk ten miles to the nearest well. The journey through the barren wastelands of the desert is bound to be full of suffering; and the feeling thirst, combined with the unforgiving heat of the scorching sun, is sure to be an almost unbearable experience; but for those that make it, the water is going to seem all the more satisfying. What if the well is dry, and filled with lousy sand™, when we finally crawl over to it?! Seriously though, I do hate the lack of info, but I can quickly resolve that. The waiting is the only real problem for me. The delay did kill much of my hype, to the point where if this game turns out to be absolute sh*t, then I'll be less disappointed, in a way. But if it's great (and I use that word in the grandest sense), then I'll be that much more pleasantly surprised. But there should be more infos in the very near future - like the website launch or those hands-on previews they spoke of. So that's good. I agree that even though the previews have been great they still leave me wanting more of the game. I thought the official website may be expanding soon like with the previous games. Some small bits of information interactive map etc. At least in around 3 or 4 weeks or so we will be hearing hands on impressions of the game from IGN, Gamespot, Kikizo, Games Radar etc. Also although many say "no gameplay footage!" I for one would really like to see some short clips of in game footage why not It will not reveal that much. Although Liberty City in Grand Theft Auto IV is smaller than San Andreas the map will still be huge, with there being no desert and countryside it probably will feel like the size of San Andreas.
