Well...Iam one of the countless GTA fans in the world who is waiting for the PC version of GTA 4 while the rich console owners are enjoying it to the max.

I know there are lots of 360 or PS3 owners here who are enjoying this game at the moment.
Can you guys please tell
1.How the game is
2.How the game city is
3.quality of gameplay and story
4.How much improvements have been made since san andreas.
5.How is multiplayer
6.How realistic the city is
and so on.

I dont believe those gamespot reviewers who tricked me into downloading a crappy game called sins of the solar empire saying that it was genre defining and gave it 9/10.
pls reply

^^nope cause that wud make them [censor]. lol, if it dosent come out on PC than i aint playing it. Its a step of Sony, MicroSaft and Rockstar together. They want to sell the FurckStation 3 and the $hitBox 360 so they tied up with R* and made it a console exclusive so we go out and buy those boxes.m gonna kill kill all of them :D

ive plyd it a friend's plce...
graphics are not much to boast about...but its gameplay is amazing....

fr example...
1.the guy wud bounce outside the car frm the front windshield, if he bangs his car head on with an object at high speed..
2.also he wud wear a helmet before starting to ride a bike(if the situation is normal, ie no police and all is behind him..)
3. the cars parkd on the roadside are always lockd, so to open thm he wud first luk here and thre(to see if someone's watching)
, thn wud smash the window with his elbow, put his hand in to unlock the door, thn he wud sit in...and the most interesting part is...he wud not just sit and drive..bt to start the car he wud bend down and do smthing..(coz he doesnt have keys and as if he has to do somethings with the wire down there to start the car)

heights of details..!!!

It was rumored for Oct 2008 release but since we console guys will be getting an episodic content for our consoles in August, I think PC version will be out by April 2009, end of Rockstar's fiscal year. :D

Spent 30+ hours in real-world time in the game.

1.How the game is?
As good as it was expected to be.

2.How the game city is
City is huge and detailed. No dead space at all. Every alley is different from the other one.

3.quality of gameplay and story
Story is much more engorssing then the previous games. You start to empathesise with the other characters pretty soon which is very important in this game.

4.How much improvements have been made since san andreas.
If you call adding more and more stuff to do as improvements, then you will be dissapointed. Its actually a step back from SA in terms of the sheer varitey of stuff that can be done. But then again, what you do is really implemented that I don't complain.

5.How is multiplayer
Insanely fun. Tonnes of modes that will have you engrossed for hours. Not your conventional MP here.

6.How realistic the city is
Very realistic! Nothing better then driving yourself to the games version of Times Square and soak in the lights!

Haven't played SA.

GTA4 is more of dark humor. It'a not as silly as the previous GTA games. More grounded in reality.
