Release Countdown

[PestilenceJM]

Hi all.

 

Its the 15th of november, and GTA 4 PC is going to be released at the 2nd and 3rd of december.

 

I am waiting for the game, because i am a huge fan and i havent played GTA 4 yet.

I played all others, from Grand Theft Auto to GTA San Andreas.

I will be in the store on the 3rd (i live in europe) and be the first to buy GTA 4 in my city.

 

One thing to do against waiting is to countdown. So thats what i want to do in this thread along with you guys who are waiting too.

 

Calendar:

I see some people are haiting GTA IV i don't no why?There are several reasons.Story missions are really bad,Character movements are pretty bad...They can't complain GRAPHIC OR PERFORMANCE of course!I can wait because my computer will not survive Intel Core 2 Duo,My CPU is Intel Pentium IV 3.00 GHz I can wait becuase i must upgrade it!

 

This is my stuff: CPU-Intel Pentium IV 3.00 GHz-Upgrade to Intel Core 2 Duo E5200 2.5 GHz

GPU-Nvidia Geforce 7900 GS-Upgrade to Nvidia Geforce 9800 GT

I will buy new motherboard cuz i don't have Socket 775!And maybe 2GB of RAM then i will have 4 GB RAM pretty nasty!!But i must diserve it.I must pass the 6th Grade with 5.

I asked for before when it was to be release in November but they said, paper will do but it would be a good to add a countdown clock, one for US and one for UK

[i_speel_good]

I have this greek-made (I think) program called "Today" and it has all name days and stuff.

 

I've put a countdown for IV PC, and everytime I open up my PC I'm always informed of how many days are left for the release of this game.
