I don't think anybody can say anything about this game that won't make me buy it lol. Never mind that I already have a pre-ordered copy waiting for me. I'm already off for Tuesday. I don't work until late on Wednesday. 12-14 hours of gameplay, here I come! I'm gonna have all my food delivered to me that day lol.
I plan on being at Circuit City in Union Square when they open doors at 10 AM. I anticipate huge lines and crowds. For those of you outside of NYC, Union Square is a real hot-spot in lower Manhattan. It's already packed as it is (like everywhere else in NY), but I imagine it'll be even worse on release day.
5 more days...

Same here. I went so far as to see the XMB with the Lollipop girl and then the PS3 logo but then I closed out of it. I wanna go in there fresh!

New video of Niko Bellic. It's just Niko talking about himself and giving a little history behind him. It doesn?t really show any game play just shots of the city and Niko talking.

Quote: GTA IV gives us characters and a world with a level of depth previously unseen in gaming and elevates its story from a mere shoot-em-up to an Oscar-caliber drama. Every facet of Rockstar's new masterpiece is worthy of applause. Without question, Grand Theft Auto IV is the best game since Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
A "10" is not a score we give out very often. In fact, the last time we gave a 10 to a console game was Soul Calibur in 1999. A 10 doesn't mean a game is perfect -- it means a game is pushing boundaries, expanding a genre, and doing many things to a level so far above and beyond its competitors that they overshadows any flaws. Certainly, GTA IV has some issues, the most noticeable being the occasional flaw in the cover system, but there are many more pieces of GTA IV that are better than anything I've seen from a game in the past decade. We don't give 10s often -- just to games that merit the score.

Glad to see some reviews are saying this game runs smoother on the PS3 than it does on 360. Ill be in line Tuesday morning, hopefully Bestbuy doesnt try to pull any crap.

I'll be picking this game up at tonight. Im in Texas and Gamestop is opening at midnight just to sell this game!!!! Seems like those who have reserved this game better pick it up. This game may be sold out before the week is over, and you wont be able to find a copy anywhere without being on a waiting list.

WOOHOO Got mine and have played it! I also got a 360 version!
Ive also got a special edition being delivered in 8hrs!
IT ROCKS!!!!!
Got mine 1hr ago and have to say, DAMN THIS IS A BIG GAME!
its gonna take a little getting used to, but everything is better than i expected, the targeting is awesome, and the graphics jaw dropping!
All i'll say is that is was worth waiting for.
The initial start up takes around 10 mins to install info to the hard drive but apart from that there's no stoppages.
AWESOME!
Rock on GTA fans, see you in multiplayer. (ive played that too and its awesome!)
Night.

Damn, I wonder how much of a mess it's gonna be tomorrow for me. If it's not raining cats and dogs, I'm gonna take a picture of the chaos tomorrow. Like I said, I'm off of work tomorrow and I plan on being at Circuit City when they open (even though I have it pre-ordered). It should be fun! lol
