Darrel Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 It doesn't matter, it is a video game. I would also say it is a little far fetched to come to America and your first day here you are going to be meeting mafia bosses and killing people? If it is that easy to make hundreds of thousands of dollars how come I have never met a mafia boss? Its still a belivable story. Say options like crazy wild hairstyles, huge choice of silly clothes like women's clothes (btw which is silly in saints row 2) it would take away a lot from the believable story. Say my Niko had a purple mohawk, pierced nose and ears. No upper clothing, and no pants. Stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Mozzarelli 80 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 But people can get crazy hairstyles in real life and wear womens clothing. If like me you like believability, you simply won't do that, problem solved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If like me you like believability, you simply won't do that, problem solved But people will, and the story is supposed to be a believable and crime epic and gritty. That's why no option such as those examples are available. I know loads of people have said this, but Saints row is the perfect game for the topic starter. It has what he wants.

gtajerk Posted May 23, 2008 Author Share Posted May 23, 2008 (edited) xamot good points. perhaps i should have labeled my thread "things that are missing in gtaIV". DODeed, ummm did you do the bank robber mission with packie? you make like 250k off 1 mission alone. ATMS were retarded in game. starion go back to playing hello kitty games and posting on my little pony forums. seriously though gtfo. I did love the story i admit darrel. im not talking about retarded looking aesthetic changes. i dunno maybe some foreign tatoos about hits completed or how about a chuck liddel haircut? niko does fight like bas rutton. *darrel i will seriously check out saints row .* Edited May 23, 2008 by gtajerk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you get a lot of money but if you get arrested you have to buy all the weapons and they are very expensive and i don´t have a lot of money and just get 2 times arrested, but died a lot of times because i like to make a killing spree and try to get away from the cops and if you die you have to pay 10.000. Die 25 times and your money is away from the bank job. I completed the story and just have around 100.000 bucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Mozzarelli 80 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 If people will do that, then obviously they don't give 2 sh*ts about believability, so why should they be forced to care about a realistic story? And Saints Row is a completely different game. He wants to see all these features in a superior game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtajerk Posted May 23, 2008 Author Share Posted May 23, 2008 doddeed. indeed getting arrested blows the big one. honestly i got arrested only a couple times in the beginning and after that said death before disarmor lolololol. but seriously though reupping your guns costs waaaaaaaaaay to much but is semi realistic i guess. *edit* indeed tony. indeed. superior game. head above the rest. like san andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacmanCrackman Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 If you haven't seen it "gtajerk" joined the forums today and he list up everything from GTA SA that GTA IV doesn't have. All the stupid things (I liked the customization of cars but it was useless) are on that list and with the fact that he use english like a like a 11 year old("17. FREAKING HYDROLICS!!!!!! (ONCE AGAIN PEE ON ROCKSTAR )" Pee on rockstar?! wtf? ) I think he is a troll He is just trying to piss the real fans of GTA. Yes I say real because real fans don't care about the useless and unnecessary things in his list, they are in it for the story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Mozzarelli 80 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Your English isn't perfect either. And true GTA fans are in it because they were fans of the games. Your reason for liking the game doesn't define you as a true fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtajerk Posted May 23, 2008 Author Share Posted May 23, 2008 lol. Sorry. I didn't realize this was a grammar forum. Yes, I did say, "Pee on rockstar". Wow. A troll? Pacman you are on crack man. Why would I want to piss off people? I came to this forum to talk about what I thought were shortcomings in the game. I don't think that is such a bad thing. I have played GTA for a long time. I was let down. I want to talk about. Is that such a bad thing? Get off my grits son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SantiagoDomingo Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 @DODdeed . . . what the hell, are you retarded? People in war aren't fat or skinny? You are a moron. My grandfather fought in WWI and WWII, he was overweight and has a mohawk at the age of 92. My uncle fought in Vietnam, he is a really skinny guy. No graffiti because he was in the war? He has no morals, in between missions I can kill everyone. At least in Scarface that kept Tony's morals, you couldn't kill innocents. @Darrell . . . it is up to each person to decide what is believable or not. Someone who is willing to kill anyone and everyone for money, in my mind, would also be crazy enough to have a mohawk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-nikobellic- Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Gameplay is simplified so everyone can play and enjoy, from a casual gamer to a hardcore gamer. -There is a cover system that works perfectly. -Niko can be customized with clothing/accessories. -The punch/kick/dodge combos are the best in any open-ended game. -The social hook-up system is incredible. -Car handling is realistic and really fun. -Weapons handling is better than previous games. -This time, staying alive is really up to you, the AI doesnt wait for you to kill 'em. This is the greatest game of all times. I feel sorry for you if you cant enjoy such a masterpiece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawjaws Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Id argue the original GTA fans are in it for the gameplay, motivated by the story. Customizing cars, hair ect would only take away from both of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn´t matter when he joined and he acts more mature than you. I am a real fan of GTA and it doens´t effect me what he is sayin.

The social aspect its annoying and not very deep. The car handling isn't all that realistic, the big cars are slower than they should and the 'boat' handling is overboard.
