Jordan Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I searched "informer" over the forums and did not find a topic for the April issue of Game Informer, and UGO has a new preview up according to the date, so... ---------------------------------------------------- A new preview from UGO popped up today according to Google News. Here are the only two worthy details: - The ice cream truck, known as the Mr. Whoopee, will be in the game. - Early April is when we can expect more previews to show up regarding multi-player. Also, the April issue of Game Informer has new details on GTA IV. - "Overwhelmingly positive" is how the editors described the revamped controls. - Auto-Lock is available in targeting. - "The driving mechanics are better than ever, and new motion blur effects and camera angles make the faster rides even more dramatic than before. In the span of two hours, we jumped off a bridge, shot our way out of several tight spots, narrowly avoided a crashing semi spilling logs all over the freeway, sniped mafia thugs from a skyscraper, shot police helicopters down with a rocket launcher, got drunk and tried to drive home, and even took lady friend bowling (in a fully interactive minigame)." Thanks to Liberty City Info for the Game Informer news. Source: http://planetgrandtheftauto.gamespy.com/fu...y.php?id=149017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Californian Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 (edited) It's worth putting up Jordan, thanks. Do they mean Auto-lock targeting in car or...? EDIT: Wait, didn't it say that the ice cream truck was named Cherry Popper? or is there two? Edited March 11, 2008 by Californian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFire Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I also have the GameInformer, and one interesting note you missed: They mentioned something about every character having about 3 or 4 different scripts per-mission, for different events that occur. I don't have a scanner, but since you have this magazine as well, maybe you could go back and confirm it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a scanner, but since you have this magazine as well, maybe you could go back and confirm it? Yeah, I read that in some other previews also, I think all of this is old, but the part about "Overwhelmingly" Positive, describing the controls sounds very good.

Snake Without a Tongue Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 and even took lady friend bowling (in a fully interactive minigame) Proper bowling? I don't recall that bit of info before. Sounds great. You know, they didn't need hot coffee, but a humorous 'try to get in her panties' mini-game would've been fun. Like those old 'choose the right answer' flash games.

GTA_Godfather Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 It's worth putting up Jordan, thanks. Do they mean Auto-lock targeting in car or...? EDIT: Wait, didn't it say that the ice cream truck was named Cherry Popper? or is there two? Brand/Company: Cherry Popper Vehicle name: Mr. Whoopee I believe it has always been this way.
