I'm gonna start online very soon. I'm looking forward to it since the modes sound like a lot of fun.
I've completed the story but I'm also gonna do all the other choices (since I have a game save from my brother's campaign that I never saved over).

lol i made a mistake buying it. The fact that i have it in my possession and its unopened isn't helping. I should have brought it when i finished my exams.

I think I'm at $604,xxx. I was about 55-60 hours in by the time I completed the story. I haven't gone back to do all the side stuff (find all the flying rats, play the arcade games, beat all the friends in the game activities etc.).
I've just started the online though. It's so much fun! I love the cops n' crooks and the team deathmatch.
It's really funny staring down a set of headlights as the car is speeding towards you and then you blast the driver in the head splattering his blood on the windshield...and then his car, with his head on the steering wheel, crushes you against the wall as it slams into you. Fun times!
Just outta curiosity for every non-NYC GTA IVer, have you ever heard of the term "flying rats" before this game? Did you know it referred to a pigeon? It's a possible NYC term. I was wondering if other major cities referred to their (annoying) pigeons as flying rats. I doubt it though.

How do you host a multiplayer game?
I use the cell phone and then click on team deathmatch but it allways joins me to an existing game.
This is frustrating cos i dont even know where the game is being hosted and what the latency is.
also i wanna host and make those rocket launcher only games

Well here we have 2 definitions for the term "Flying rats"
The first is referred to bats. As bats are like the only mammal with wings and fly, and are furry, people call them flying rats.
The second is, as you've pointed out, referred to pigeons. This is because many people see pigeons as pests, just like rats.

You can't, Rockstar ran out of time developing.

Did not know that! Good tip!
I like 'vermin of the sky' better than flying rats. I'll try and popularize that here in NYC lol.
Been loving the online by the way. I haven't had many issues with GTA online. The only times I ran into problems were during the off-peak hours (like 10 am - 12 pm). Otherwise, late night, when online gaming starts, I never have issues.
Idiotic players that don't follow the mission instructions (like bomb da base, or hangman's noose) ruin the experience.

Some of you might hate me for saying this but this GTA is nothing special. It was hyped up too much. I'm very dissapointed to be honest, the driving sucks and were the hell are the sports cars. I hardly see them around.
I enjoyed San Andreas much more than this.

I have to also agree i enjoyed San Andreas more (more freedom i feel).
However the driving has really grown on me, how long have you been playing? I really prefer it this was now. And for sports cars, when you are on the second island roman buys you a new property (the 2nd property on the 2nd island) and right next door to it is a sports car shop...
I am now off after finishing my GCSE's and i am spoilt for choice whether to play - COD4, MGS4 or GTAIV. They are all extremely good games imo.

Yeah I know that car showroom, That car is ok not bad. The comet is a awesome car. The car you get when you go to a race with Brucie. Ever since i lost the car i havn't seen it around. That was the best car in terms of speed handling and braking.
MGS is also really good i recieved my copy this morning.
PS: It feels good waking up knowing you don't have to revise doesn't it. :)

I am not a huge fan of the driving mechanics in this game either. Actually I think the controls in 3, VC, and SA are much better. Don't get me wrong I love the game, I just find the controls to be a bit...clumsy.

I think you can change the controls back to "classic"

I like the way gta4 drives, but the best car isn't comet but Turismo. It's got the front of a ferrari, you can find it parked nextdoor to someone who gave Niko missions on the right facing the house, don't remeber the name but here's the map, SE.

my fave car is the RS Sultan you can find it behind the garage of the old abandoned mansion on the north coast of alderney, if you haven't already found it, you should check it out!!
