It looks like fun to me... Call it therapy, but I've always enjoyed the GTA games, even the first one.

Ahhh, GTA IV... allready got my preorder in. Speaking of which, UK gamers, preorder at Game and they give you a bunch of cool freebies, as well as double reward points. So thats allways nice.

Love the music in this trailer ^^

I think that's really the best part of the game. Just being able to go nuts whenever the mood strikes you. Then trying to get away...

Yeha....I'm also lookin forward to Mafia II...purely for the more historical element to it.

Makes you wonder what things would be like if we didn't have games to help blow off some steam?

Before video/computer games, we used to go outside,play sports or work out to relieve stress and aggression. Or the all time top two stress relievers.

Soo.. Anyone else here got it? ^^

Got mine yesterday.
It is pure awesome.

Great graphics, better gameplay, better realism, more posibilities and a freaking gigantic map. Car handling is also more like real life now, with the unfortunate side effect that trying to take a tight corner at 120 MPH is not recomended. I also love how you can get throw out of the front window when you hit something head on at speed, and fire pistols in drive bys now. Oh, and the soundtrack is great, too.

My conclusion: If you don't like this game, there is something seriously wrong with you.

And I'm still only at the start of the game, and already it's great. To be more accurate, I'm at the part just after Dimitri and Bulgarin burn Roman's apartment and cab company down.

Hehe, yeah, your right, i love all those features.. its weird, its still got that GTA feel and mechanic and gameplay, and yet is so.. well... new. The same but different.

Though, personally, my two favorite things are the fact that it saves after missions automagically, as WELL as at the safehouse.. and that everything is pre loaded, so no more loading screens when you enter a Burger Shot or a clothes store - you just push the door open and wonder on it, without even a momentary black loading screen. Niice ^^

Oh, that and the new wanted system is sweet, too.

Yeah, I'm loving the lack of waiting vital seconds for it to load, and not having to go to your safe house to save it.
The new wanted system is a lot better, and makes the game that bit more realistic, as well. No more needing to worry about the cops always knowing where you are automaticaly.

Indeed. Nothing relaxes you like running over pedestrians and leaving bloody tire marks on the pavement!
