Some people think GTA4 is going to be life changing. Unless your life is totally empty, it most likely won't be.

 

This is just from observing the need to post fake reviews, make presumptuous statements and generally act like it's the next best thing since sliced bread (or pringles if you live in America).

 

High expectation leads to painful disappointment.

I totally agree.

 

Some people are getting so excited and posting ridiculous posts on this forum.

True However:

 

If there was no expectation then who would buy the game and what would the game be?

 

Expectation sets the standards by putting pressure on game developers to give the audience what they 'anticipate' the release should include.

 

While people maybe 'OTT' about the release of the game, well through modern marketing and websites like this, one can see its perfectly understandable.

 

Also unlike the other 'GTAS' this is a landmark release as oppose to e.g.: VC-> San Andreas.

You have to understand.. My life is empty.

 

btrdan; no.. Iced Coffee in Australia is unique to Australia.

 

For the sake of it:

 

Australia

 

In Australia, iced coffee is a cold flavoured milk drink as opposed to simply coffee that has been chilled or cold-brewed. Home made iced coffee is often served with ice cream and whipped cream. The result is something like an un-blended milk shake.

 

There are many restaurants and cafes which also serve iced coffee made from chilled coffee and water (with or without ice) with ice cream, syrup, cream and cocoa powder or coffee beans on top.

 

Some commercial varieties of iced coffee are made from real coffee while others contain only coffee flavouring. Most commercial varieties of Australian iced coffee have 2-3 times the caffeine of cola.

 

Iced coffee has been sold commercially in Australia since the late 19th century in the form of a syrup, an example of which is Bushells Coffe and Chickory Essence, and more recently as a prepackaged, ready to consume drink.

 

One popular brand is Farmer's Union Iced Coffee, which outsells Coca Cola in South Australia and has become an official icon and legend in that state [2] This particular brand is now widely available in Queensland (as far north as Mackay), Northern Territory, Victoria, New South Wales and Tasmania. The product is not yet available in Western Australia.

 

Pauls Iced Coffee is the second most popular drink in the Northern Territory, after beer[lol]. It is not available outside of the Northern Territory, save for rare instances when it is sold in Dili, East Timor.[citation needed]

 

Other varieties include Big M, Ice Break, Browns Iced Coffee Chill, Browns Coffee Chill, Browns Dome Cappacino Supershake, Browns Mocha Chill, Masters Esspresso, Masters Iced Coffee and Max Iced Coffee.

 

The formulation of the original Max Iced Coffee was changed in September 2001 from full cream milk to low fat. Despite a number of appeals by consumers to the Max Iced Coffee owners (Dairy Farmers) to switch back to the full cream formulation, the low fat variety has remained as the only available Max Iced Coffee in South Australia. However, in other parts of Australia, full cream Max Iced Coffee is still available (known as Oak Iced Coffee).

there was unbelieveable hype and expectation for SA, but that still rocked my socks off.

I don't see what is wrong with people getting excited about the game I am for one I can't wait to play it. I think most people realize the game won't be "life changing". I do expect Grand Theft Auto IV to be another great installment in the series and I think it will be one of the most enjoyable videogames I have played in sometime. There is a very good chance it will be.

I've been saying this all along. I know the games not going to be perfect. I know it's going to be the best game I've ever played, but some people think they'll be able to do anything. It's not going to be the case. I predicted that a lot of people will be on this board after April 29th complaining about every little thing.

 

I won't.
