if u are bored of gta iv....

[macorules94]

start a new game of san andreas and finish it to the end (in beween dontt play IV) and then play gta iv and it will be fun.

 

maybe even start a new game

[DoubleOGJohnson]

Its funny that you are telling people to go play San Andreas considering the fact that nobody will be playing IV four years from now. The fact that IV fanboys even mention SA proves its longevity and its superiority over GTA IV.

Yeah.... ok .....you make no sense.

 

 

 

What he means is tha SA is not as good as IV because of the graphics and physics etc etc etc. So after playing a good game with sh*t graphics etc, when you go back to play IV it will be so much better.

[ApplePieMolester81]

Game Play> Every other aspect of Video Games "Graphics/Physics" and Ect. And yeah imo at least SA is better than LC aka IV. Just the thought of a SA remake makes my heart race.

Agreed. IV really lacked gameplay, even its graphics aren't that good compared to alot of games from the same gen.

I don't get all these people that come onto a GTAIV forum and just hang sh*t on the game.... Please explain?

how are the graphics not as good, the graphics are amazing for a GTA game, all the other games out that have better graphics isnt open world gameplay just 10-12 levels or maps, Liberty City is big and detailed very detailed, show me a game thats as big as GTA IV and that is very detailed

Real Life, great game, much better graphics for a "do whatever you want" game

Aint hanging sh*t dude, just stating I think SA is better and gives you a longer/funner experience overall.

The graphics look much better than Saints Row 2 I'll tell you that much. The character models look so cartoony.

It`s like this.

 

you have a beautiful woman in front of you who wont put out - GTA 4

 

then you have an avrage looking woman in front of you who is down for anything - SR2

 

 

so at the end of the day it might look good but it dont put out.

[GTA_Godfather]

johnnyk,

 

You have a great and humorous way of putting it. Thanks.

 

I look forward to making my own judgments on the PC version. GTA III, VC, and SA (all PC) each left distinct impressions on me. VC was my fav, mostly because of the recreation of the setting/environment and the characters/storyline.

 

I hope I don't come away with an empty feeling with IV. I haven't with any of the others.

 

 

 

[CarbonSpaceTime]

Ah, I'll admit it. Way back when I first heard GTA IV was coming out on next-generation consoles, before I decided not to hype myself up, I expected some sh*t from GTA IV - like super cool sh*t, and GTA IV wasn't really out of your mind cool. Viewing it in that context, yes, GTA IV sucks.

[02134]

Graphics should be sacrificed for gameplay in my opinion. I couldn't care less how realistic a polygon flower looks. The best games ever made had the worst graphics, like Metal Slug and Monkey Island.

 

No game with the modern style "next-gen" graphics will ever be as good as games with some basic graphics but amazing gameplay. I've played flash games with stick figures that I thought were amazing compared to games for PC and consoles these days.

 

The more people care about graphics the worse and less original games are going to get.

i agree with you graphics isnt everything but it does help when the game looks nice which GTA IV does, there just isnt all the little things they throw at you like chainsaws and jets and stuff like that, that give you a big open world city with limited good weapons and vehicles and they make you be creative. I think thats the big thing with GTA IV is rockstar made it more open for gamers to find things to do rather than just giving them all these little things to play with. explains why theres free roam with 16 players. Ive found many things to do you just gotta think of things and be creative.

 

I was playing a game earlier today where me and my friend gathered alot of weapons and made a roadblock on a bridge and he took cover on one side of the cars and I took the other and we fought the cops off as long as we could and it was accaully really fun.

 

hell we even take fast cars and line them up on the top of the hill next to middle park near the internet cafe and race them down to the road block and come back and since you have cars like turismo and infernus and its a big straight away its kinda cool to see what happens

 

we even took a bus with 4 people and have 4 other people in cop cars like a police escort and was fighting off the other players and cops.

 

theres many things to do in GTA especially online you just have to be creative

I doubt that. There's nothing suggesting that GTA IV will be defunct in four years. Halo 1 and 2 have less going for it and people still play on both systems.

[timredd]

I have played thru GTA IV twice, once to %100, another just the story.

 

I've just finished SA again

 

There is NO WAY I'm gonna play GTA IV again soon

 

its just too boring

 

 

Just my opinion

 

The reason I hang out around these forums is to get any news re DLC

 

I'm hoping that it will redeem it for me...............

[mkey82]

You mentioned the word creative a bit too many times for a GTA title

 

GTA should felicitate your imagination, not demand it to have a good time. From my experience, most people settle in a mind rut and don't have that much imagination so it would be unwise form R* to make a game that requires from people to have palnty of it.

[Tony Mozzarelli 80]

If fun gameplay means more creativity, then fun tools equals more fun gameplay, simple as that. The very idea that anyone would suggest that rockstar has had the benevolence to give us the oppurtunity to better use our imaginations, is preposterous

thats because everyone is complaining how there is nothing to do well theres one solution for that.

 

be creative

[mkey82]

Yes be creative. Let's take it one step further. If you are creative enough, you don't need GTA IV. You don't need the console, you can do without a TV. If you are creative enough.

 

If you are creative enough, any open ended game can offer you enough. For instance, X3 - a space sim/action game. There are literally thousands of ships you can mess around, follow them and emulate their behavior. Or you can explore a lot. You can set out to map it, mark certain points of interest. Or to catalog the available technology. You can do this, ut it doesn't make nay sense as the developer needs to provide the tools with which you will have fun.

 

Like I said, you can not put creativity under system requirements. Especially if you are planing to sell the game to millions of people. Maybe 250000 of those 6 million that bought if for x360 are creative enough.

 

Tony, did you try to register again?

[Tony Mozzarelli 80]

Haven't tried yet dude, but i will try again in a this afternoon.

who said take a step further, I simply said if your bored be creative and find things to do its really not that hard. If you cant find somthing to do in Liberty City with 15 other people you shouldnt be playing the game at all then

[Algonquin Assassin]

 

start a new game of san andreas and finish it to the end (in beween dontt play IV) and  then play gta iv and it will be fun.

 

maybe even start a new game

I already tried something like that. When I was waiting for my PS3 to come back, I started a new save in SA, but I think I done a total of about 3 missions, and haven't touched it since. It simply doesn't hold my interest like IV does.

 

To me IV is the better game, full stop. SA was great (Read the tense was), but I like GTA IV so much more.

 

DoubleOGJohnson- How do you know no one will be playing IV in 4 years time? You do realise that not all of us have SA jammed so far up our asses, it clouds judgement on other games?

I agree. It's not really that hard. Did god give some of you 5 second attention spans when you were born?

 

F**k I remember back in the GTA 1/GTA 2 days when all there was to do was cause mayhem throughout the city. That was before R* started spoon feeding people, and you know what whenever I play those two now, they're still fun to play.

Thank you at least somebody agrees its not that hard to use you imagination

 

hell for the past hour I just been walking around listening to people talk its rather funny I heard two girls talking.

 

First girl "before you know it f*cking is going to be illegal"

Second girl "yea thats why I started smoking meth"

First girl "hunny I started smoking meth in elementry school"

 

end of convo.

 

idk about you but I find random people talking about stupid sh*t like that rather entertaining lol

 

[Algonquin Assassin]

Yeah sometimes just walking around noticing stuff you never normally would, can be fun.

 

Hell one of the things I love to do is jump out of helicopters, and see the many different ways Niko can die.

You could seriously make a Jackass style movie with IV. lol

 

It's funny walking out infront of a car, and getting smacked by it. Rarely does he fall the same way twice.

So it wouldn't be far more fun to have lots of different stuff to do? would this in any way hinder your imagination? would it all of a sudden stop you from being able to use your creativity? or would it give you a greater platform from which to use your imagination in a variety of different ways?
