As most have already heard, GTA IV has been delayed till Q2 2008. Speculation is running all over the internet as to the exact reason for this delay. As far as gamers knew, everything was fine at E3 and on track for a big October launch.
As reported earlier this week, XF had learned about certain future titles requiring the 360 HDD for data caching, but hadn't received any specifics on which games and when this would happen. Yesterday, when XF got word of GTA IV being delayed, we had to call our source. Apparently Rockstar wants GTA IV to give a seamless experience with load times limited as much as possible and void of loading whenever possible. This requires a HDD according to our source.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
As we have all been graced by the release of Grand Theft Auto 6's trailer, we're ranking the best and worst GTA trailers to date.
We be getting these posts All week now lads. Someone noticed a number plate ... Someone noticed a billboard... I can see it now
Just go on YouTube and watch one of the many videos dissecting the whole 1minite 30secs worth.
This site supposed to be for news.
These updates on N4G are going to ruin whats rest of this site. Unfortunate since I was one of the first members.. The site shows unsecure when i login as well.
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.
ah the core system rears its ugly head
....AAHAHHAHAHHHAHHA
I knew it! It's starting to happen....HAHHAhhaHA
Friking M$, Now us PS3 owners that ALL have a HDD need to wait because of M$'s decision not to include a HDD in a "NEXT GEN." console...
Xbox 3FixMe, PAAALEASE.
way to go M$. Because of your decision to try and milk your XBOTS, us HAPPY PS3 owners have to wait.
mmm.. let me see.. let's analize this....
Someone that used to own a PS2 buys a core.. because he does not see the importance of a hard drive or online multiplayer... he pays $299 because paying $600 is too much for a console(PS3) hence why he paid $299... Later when GTA comes out... 1-3 years after he purchased his XBox 360 core... GTA requires a HDD(not certain but less make believe)... why should they do?
A) Buy a hard drive for $80.
B) Buy a PS3 because it comes with a hard drive for $500.
C) Got back in time and spend $600 for a PS3 and watch blu-ray movies while GTA comes out 3 years later and miss the exclusive content that will be release only on the xbox 360..
The way I see it.. $299 + $80 is a better deal than $600...
Besides... there is a big chance the hard drives will drop price too... by the time this game is released...
How would their PS1 & PS2 games be useless if they still have a PS2? I know a bunch of people that bought a 360 over a PS3 after having a PS2 last gen. They just keep their PS2 out so they can play it whenever they feel like it.
hay 360Suckz thats actually a good point thats why i brought me a ps3.
rather have one console that does eveything in it hehe i dont want to put my ps2 next to my ps3 it just looks odd lol big/small >_<
lol my opinion though =) some people are messy (cables eveywere)
