Just to change it up a bit.

Lol it would probably be better on a PS3 anyway. The game looks awesome but I don't know if I should get this or AC:black flag.

I'd buy GTA V instead. It probably has a ton more lasting appeal.

I'm getting both :D

So did they ditch the ultra-realistic but boring gameplay mechanics?

i hope not, i liked gta4

You better bloody be joking. Running and driving were such a pain in 4

really wasn't that bad. i liked that the cars had weight in gta4. the only boring part was being knocked out of your car after a collision.

the worst part of the game was the cover system and auto-aim (the way it changes targets made it way too unresponsive), made gun fights drag on way too long.

The gunfights shown in the game footage trailer seems to show that they improved that aspect. I agree with you there, but then again, they probably had their best people playing the game for the trailer.

It takes me ages to get into a car on GTA 4

nah when they show game trailers they usually have someone mediocre playing. it gives it broader appeal.

im excited either way, hope i have money when it comes out. would love to play it with a new rig 8]

I don't think they ever showed a gameplay trailer before release for GTA before though. Maybe I am wrong, but I think I read that on IGN or something.

i mean game trailers in general ^^;

Will probably buy it if it comes out on PC.

I didn't, I felt the game played a bit too stiff to enjoy, a massive flip from the older games. Saint's Row really nailed the more enjoyable mechanics in contrast to GTA4, where driving/moving/doing anything felt like a chore.
