Watchin it right now!
Live Updates:

Bad english accent Niko (No racial offence, I hope).
Graphics seem dumb down from the first trailer (Is it just me?)
Who is Niko looking for (Finding a man is the main plot?)?
Working gas station is a welcome.
Extremely good facial animation.
Fuk I hope we don't have to follow road rules.
Blank lisence plates?
Is anyone flying that helicoper (there is no one inside).
Looks like the 80's (cars especially)

Fuk man, like the first trailer and now the second trailer, I am not impressed. I feel like NIko's got issues and we need to solve it for him. I don't wanna do that. Probably, I will just stick to causing havoc on the streets of NYC. lol

i think you can climb and interact with every vehicle.. holding tight on a driving truck, hanging on a helicopter in the air ...

AWESOME GAME.
i think this will be the game of the year.

closedxxx6137d ago

Once again, the GTA series looks like it will showcase sub-par graphics when compared to games released in the same time frame.
It looks like it will be a great game, and has decent environments and draw distance etc.
But, the characters, vehicles, and surrounding items seemd to be lacking any realistic detail, or modern texturing.
I know the video is not great quality, but regardless of HD video or not, you can tell when a game is going to feature mind blowing visuals, and this game will not.

Crazyglues6137d ago

I did like what I saw. the game still looks amazing and I will definitely be adding this to my gaming list, it's a must have.

Looks like same old GTA fun, just on the new systems.

I think it's because of Xbox 360 the graphics where toned down.

Torch6137d ago

Personally, I think it's much more intriguing than the first trailer.

Graphics still come across as top-notch to me.

Note that I'm not a GTA fan (God knows I tried), but this looks more uh, purposeful.

(The background porn-guitar riff was also much appreciated. Rather relaxing and therapeutic.)

Crazyglues6137d ago (Edited 6137d ago )

wow... it looked amazing... that trailer before was no where near how it looks at Rockstar.com, that game is looking amazing.. OMG!!!

I can't wait.. PS3 or Xbox 360? I just don't know

but wow.. it looks amazing... simply amazing.....!!!

The trailer above was a little fuzzy and choppy, but the Rockstar.com one is like running at 1080p and the game is crystal clear, it looks amazing.

I just can't wait now!!! I'm too excited.

the main character looks fat and clumsy for some reason, he's just not as cool as the other ones in the past..hmm maybe it's just personal taste. and that chick he was talking to looks more like his mom than that 'special someone'....what is going on..they need better main charactres to get me into the actions...

i like the accent though, keep that, very good..give u sense of immigrant and unsecured future..good atmosphere..just dont like the way those two look.

MetalProxy6137d ago

I like the new Europian look'n dude. But Iam suprized you cant edit your guy to look like who ever.

Omegasyde6136d ago

The guy seems like he has some attitude but also seems whiny like CJ.
They should of brought back Tommy Versati from GTA:vice city. Him alone would sell the game, even if they don't have Ray Liotta's voice.

We all could be wrong however and this guy could be a bad ass anti-hero. From the scenes, you can obviously tell he is pretty pissed off most of the time.

LSDARBY6137d ago

Awsome trailer imo, i want to download it to my PS3 in HD

Grand Theft Auto 4 Anniversary: The Beginning of the Age of RAGE

Grand Theft Auto 4 is an important game for Rockstar, not least because it was the first title in the franchise to use the newly created RAGE engine.

Wasn’t the Table Tennis game the first to use RAGE?

isarai349d ago

Was about to say the same, but they do say first "in the franchise" so 🤷

cammers1995349d ago

The fact it hasnt been remastered is insane.

Fifteen Years On, 'Grand Theft Auto IV' Is Still the Series’ Best

There’s never a bad time to relive its magic, and with rumours of a potential Grand Theft Auto IV remaster making the rounds, why wouldn’t you?

The series' most overhyped and overrated (especially by critics) more like.

Number1TailzFan352d ago

Not sure tbh.. I'd say 3 was the most overrated. It's pretty rough to go back to, it was quite rough even trying it just after Vice City. Lack of humour and vehicles that had the weight of polystyrene with top speeds to match.

VC & the stories games (even LCS) were all fun. I remember there being a lot of praise for GTA 3 on TV and in game mags, saying it was a Dreamcast killer of a game or words to that effect, and honestly after playing it on PC I didn't think it was that special and kind of dull, had the odd moment of fun but hardly anything. I heard they cut online multiplayer at the last moment for PC, shame because it could've made all the difference.

Would've loved to have seen what kind of cartoony GTA style game they could've done on Dreamcast as a competitor, I bet something along the lines of Simpsons Hit & Run would've worked well.

BlackTar187351d ago

@numberz How can the game that defined a generation and was copied by everyone be overrated? Was a asinine comment

seanpitt23351d ago

For me 4 was better than 5 was more realistic and the physics was on another level! 5 was a major let down in that department!

Number1TailzFan351d ago

@blacktar you have your opinion i have mine. I found the game dull, and it is for the most part. It set the foundation for the much superior SA and VC however.

KwietStorm_BLM351d ago

You say GTA III is overrated because it's rough to go back to and rough to play after Vice City. Your entire opinion is in hindsight. Of course it's rough going back to it today. It came out over 20 years ago. That doesn't take away from the fact that it pioneered a lot and was a paradigm shift for a lot of trends in game development today. Vice City in a lot of ways is just a more refined version of III. It was San Andreas that took the big leap forward from a design perspective. If III doesn't release, who knows if the open world genre would be what it is now. How can that be overrated?

Not at all. My most played game of all time. Truly stunning accomplishment in gaming and with PC graphics mods it just took it to levels beyond anything that came before and possibly even after.

People who moan about it generally tend to be people who played it on under powered consoles and couldn’t handle the more realistic car physics. It was the slightly more realistic approach that made it stand out more. Absolutely love it. In fact I always said Vice city was my favourite of all time. But after going back to the remaster I realised 4 was actually the best.

Profchaos351d ago (Edited 351d ago )

I'm no critic and I consider it the best games in the franchise after recently replaying every entry it's story when paired in conjunction with it's DLC was and still is amazing.

shinoff2183351d ago

Lol. Fun fact. That dlc cost a certain green colored console 50 million for exclusiveness. Un heard of back then. Just to point out the hypocrisy of the 3rd party exclusive agenda going on.

Anyway how the dlc better then the base game by a mile. Lol imo

DigitallyAfflicted351d ago

I've enjoyed gta4 the most from all the others too.

DarXyde351d ago

San Andreas holds a special place in my heart. Honestly, I couldn't get into IV at all. Didn't even finish it. I had some pride in playing it at first because I'm originally a New Yorker, but it just didn't do it for me.

To each their own.

shinoff2183351d ago (Edited 351d ago )

Gta sa for sure. To this day my favorite. My least fav is gta 4 easily. Gta 4 made me feel like the dude in next friday trying to take the cd back talking about i cant get jiggy wit this.

Maybe looking back it would be 3 but 3 did so damn much for gaming in general. . My first gta was of course the top downs so the series has came a long way.

notachance351d ago

Yeah I remembered falling asleep playing the last mission in GTA4.. the most boring protagonist (out of all the voiced protag), and the town is too small.

-Foxtrot352d ago

Not really

Overrated

Boring

Liberty City despite being a reimagined version for the HD era lacked any variety

Lacked the GTA fun charm overall

Niko was bland compared to past protagonists like Tommy, CJ or Victor

blackblades351d ago (Edited 351d ago )

GTA 2 was the best, lol my only owned GTA game. Vice city was alright when I rented it back then. I cant really say which is the best cause those the only 2 games i played but GTA 2 was fun on PC back in the day. Closes game to it that I enjoyed was SR3 and I dont care what people say. That none serious tone was fun enjoyable.

banger88352d ago

Like hell it is. San Andreas was far better, much more fun and a better game overall.

isarai352d ago

Nah, it's a masterpiece in attention to detail and the amount of immersive systems at play. But it really isn't very fun, ESPECIALLY when compared to the previous games in the series. Like tons of things are just wonky and actively kneecap lots of experimentation, or is just lame. Like why do I take huge damage when falling into water, why can I only stand in very specific large trucks when they are moving but not smaller trucks and vehicles, why is the melee combat such a massive down grade from GTA SA and GTA IV, why is the euphoria nowhere near as reactive, why is being drunk using a rasterized animation of staggering rather than the far more entertaining euphoria GTAIV and RDR used when you were drunk, why do npc vehicles barely react to you popping there tires even at high speed, etc etc.

I've always loved playing around in GTA games world. Like the campaigns are great but the majority of my time was always spent just playing in the open world. Yet GTAV is the only game in the series I never really returned to after beating it, it just lacks that fun factor the others have, I spent more time in GTA SA remastered than GTAV

chicken_in_the_corn352d ago

It's one of my least favourite GTA games. It's clunky, the ai is exploitable, it's far too long and the writing is absolutely awful.
