Gta 4, Too Realistic?

[GiantDouche]

Not there's anything wrong with what probably is one of the biggest gaming breakthroughs in history, GTA 4 stands out too be too realistic. You can go on dates, earn a reputation, everything you do has future consequences. Fairly, this is amazing. The realism incorporated into the newest entry makes it stand out from other games in the series, as well as the amazing graphics, level design, AI interactivity, and gameplay. What could possibly be wrong with this?

I feel that now because EVERYTHING is consequential and missions aren't just CHASE after CHASE after CHASE, I'm not playing the game for the reasons I first did. When I first played GTA, it was to sit around with a couple of friends, do cool car tricks, and go on crazy rampages that involved mass virtual murder and running from the cops (WHO WERE WAAAAAAY STUPIDER THEN). Now, I feel like building a rep for my character, choosing everything carefully, and not going on rampages. I haven't gone on one killing spree (Unless you count multiplayer) yet. The game still kicks ass even though I feel obligated to go on missions rather than sitting around with my friends shooting everybody running by (UNLESS YOU COUNT MULTIPLAYER)

I'm probably going to buy a 360 just for that game. An rpg where you can kill ANYONE? Epic.

Complimenting, but I feel like it doesn't totally embellish the feel of GTA 3 and Vice City and San Andreas.

Iv'e thought about this too.

I just hope people don't play that game instead of living their own lives.

I'm trying to convince my friend that when he get's a 360 to get GTA.

But alas, no. He's a Halo 3 fanboy.

My life isn't half as exciting. It's pretty fucking sweet but nobodies every asked me to kill people aside from the voices in my head. It also starts to feel like an RPG sometimes.

I was thinking of a PS3 just for this!

I WAS THE ONE....WHO SURVIVED! That for some reason was hilarious on the commercial.

Now that they make a realistic game, people start complaining about the positivity being negative!

Where is this world going to?

Ah. Well I've yet to play, so I can't give an honest opinion.

I agreed, I actually feel like playing the game unlike the earlier versions of GTA. I mean seriously play it not just sit on a rooftop and pick people off with a sniper rifle which is what I usually did in San Andreas. I haven't even tried to get six stars with GTA 4 but when I got San Andreas that was the first thing I attempted.

All games seem to reach a limit. With worms it was the crossover to 3D, it was a great game before, simple, entertaining, smooth, lots of fun weapons, great controls, then they suddenly took all that fun away. I still enjoy GTA though, at the level it's at right now it's just about perfect, so I hope they don't do any further changes.

Today I saw a 9 years old kid with a GTA IV.
He has horrible parents.

How can you be a halo 3 fanboy without a 360?

I happened to do that by crashing a car into the bridge barrier and flying out the windscreen, over the barrier, right in front of the police.

That was fun trying to get away.
