GTA IV: The Biggest Secret About The Delay + Brand New Images + GTA IV vs Real Life in NY

The biggest secret about Grand Theft Auto 4 revealed. GTA IV fans certainly been patient. After nearly ruining everyone's Christmas by delaying GTA IV until next year (the exact ship date is still unknown), Rockstar suffered a bout of deja vu when their controversial action game Manhunt 2 was banned in several countries due to excessive violence.

[Hydrollex]

F the countries who banned Manhunt 2 ! Damn ! they cannot even controll their country. U.S. The best country for gaming !!!

[Saint Sony]

Haha, USA is the most hypocrite country in a whole world.
You guys even bleep every swear word, or blur boobs and asses if they happen to flash in some stupid reality show.

Come to Europa it is porn and violence all the way! No blurring at all and swearing is allowed + many more NORMAL things that USA might consider illegal or bad or evil or any other excuse of letting people having fun.

[ry-guy]

It's a conflict of cultures in the USA.

The Puritan roots to the country still run strong and are the reason why every flash of skin is blurred and every potential cuss word is bleeped.

The Liberal half of society is the one that pushes the envelope that makes every boob blurred and every cuss word bleeped. They push the evelope while you have the conservative half tries to push it back.

It's a conflict of two different cultural values, that is far from hypocritical.

Try understanding the society before you critize it. It's hypocritical of Europe to claim we don't understand anything outside of our own borders when it is you who do not understand what goes on inside our borders.

What did you learn from the incident at Columbine? That some people are born evil and that it was Gods will?

You forgot the best reason "Europa" beats amerika, you can have sex with underage teen girls! YES!!!! I love their porn.

[Muppetmeat]

Take a census of which countries are flipping out over video game violence... you'll find they're the Europee-ons. Go stink up a latte bar with your funky body odor, wear your dirty turtle-neck sweaters, braid your girlfriend's armpit hair and smoke some more clove cigarettes. Oh yeah.. don't forget to blast your American-made music before you go watch your American-made movies and then make Coca-Cola richer by being stupid enough to buy it and then pour it out on the street in protest.

[Blademask]

Its choppy on here, and the PS3. I havent checked it on the 360 yet.

[Shaka2K6]

Sell alot of units more then everything the xbug 360 has sold in Japan in 2 years, PS3 will sell it in one hour hehe.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

Shaka2k6...you just....you are so....

awe nevermind.

[iNcRiMiNaTi]

2 episodic downloads thatll make the game even longer.

[InMyOpinion]

Since Rockstar tried out their RAGE engine on the 360 with Table Tennis I really don't get what you're saying. The 360 wasn't new to them like the PS3. Then there's the history of inferior multi platform games on the PS3. You need to check your facts.

[lawman1108]

Your system and you are ----->

[mighty_douche]

Ummm they are mostly real life pictures???

[InMyOpinion]

Brand new real life pictures.

[AbyssGravelord]

lol at the brand new real life pictures lol +1 bubble for you!

[HeartlesskizZ]

im liking the water effect..not as much as UDF but is looking fun to cruise on those bouts =)

[radzy]

maybe more than halo 3

[HeartlesskizZ]

theres so many preorders from early this year before delay and after so take those + the ones that are taking place now a fortune with out counting the copies that will sell on day 1 =D $$$$

[rushbd]

the game looks pretty crappy graphically. and frame rates are really bad. I think it's clear that the game wasnt finished to be released.

[Snukadaman]

The graphics look terrible...thats all i could see were those horrible graphics..I didnt see no framerates dropping though..maybe i was too stuck on the graphics....it looks like a upgraded ps2 version of the game....from the last trailer it looks like they got worst or something.

[PS3PCFTW]

san andreas has sh!t craphics..........youre telling me you didnt beat that game like 5-6 times?

i still play it on pc on ultra high resolution..........my only gripe is it crashes 1 or twice a week for some reason

[bloop]

......"The Biggest Secret About The Delay"??????? It didn't mention anything about the delay??

[HBK619]

What was the secret about the delay?

They don't mention why it was delayed, could someone tell me the real reason it was delayed?

[metallbizkit]

Like you and others, I was trying to read what the secret was and I didn't see it.

Oh well... this game has a lot of hype and I hope it lives up to it.

[Polluted]

Seems to me the article didn't include anything the title promised it would. It's just some guy talking about how there's a new GTA trailer. Like we didn't know that already.
Can't wait for this game though. San Andreas was the only game I ever pre-ordered. I went to EBgames on launch day and waited in line with a bunch of people before the shop opened. I felt like such a geek. It was awesome.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

having to go back and redo so much of the game pulled away a lot of resources they normally would have had for GTA IV. At least that is what I was taking away from the article.

[djroberts]

Lame secret.

[Topshelfcheese]

The game on either system just wasn't ready for an Oct release so they were delayed. Theres hardly ever a secret surrounding a delay, but people seem to want to create a mountian out of a ant hill all the freaking time.

[360_Rules]

New content only on the 360. Suck for all you Playcrapstation 3 fanboys.

[crippler666]

GTA: SA in the end was getting a little boring. Unless there is drastic change to GTA IV, I think the game will be long enough as it is. That is not to say the episodic content will not be good. Just that the game will be long enough in its own right IMO.

[SweeneyTodd]

What the fvck is a play-crap-station 3? I know Playstation is a big word an xbox fan to remember. Thats why when M$ made the xbox 360 they tried to make the name as short as possible just so their simple minded fans like you wouldnt forget how to spell it.

[DemiseofPandas]

I'm sorry but if that was their true intention (humoring this as much as I can) xbox 2 would be shorter.

That is in game !!!!!!!!!

THat is incredible, how can anyone say those graphics aren't mind blowing !!!!!

Those graphics look just like real life, WOW !!!!!!!

Props to both systems !!!

[Hydrollex]

did you even read the title ? huh ?

Did you even look at this "GTA IV vs Real Life in NY" Dumass. So don't say wow those pictures are real. Those pictures are comparing GTA IV and real life lol wow

Wow 4 years old kid come here and talk sh!t. Do you know who approved the story ? a N4G Admin. So STFU and read everything

The delay was because some countries banned manhunt 2. GTA IV was almost done but R* went back again and removed some parts of the game. Why ? Because they thought GTA IV will get banned.

If you look at the second trailer, it looks like Rockstar is working on the game like 3 months. but when yo look at first trailer the game looks like it's done.

[nobizlikesnowbiz]

I mean. They didn't look terrible at all. Sure the video's framerate was a little shoddy but thats probably in the video right. Hopefully.

Besides, GTA was never that pretty. It was the awesome sh!t you could do in the games. And this one looks pretty good IMO.
