Finally - What's BAD about Grand Theft Auto IV

xsynergyx | 5 days 1 hour ago | Blog | Playstation 3 XBOX 360 Company Misc  | views: 1917
"It's all related to realism or their attempt at it. All the fun of the old GTAs has been severely reduced because you cant do stuff any more. The driving; you used to be able to fling the cars around at almost max speed - it was really fun. Now they are forcing you to drive slow at corners or you skid off. When you roll out of a car, you take tons of damage - it used to be much less. The driving isn't even realistic, ask anyone who drives. Someone on a forum joked that their Vauxhall Corsa ca..."

How Grand Theft Auto IV saved the Xbox 360

xsynergyx | 6 days 2 hours ago | News | Playstation 2 Playstation 3 Company  | views: 2504
"Microsoft didn’t see GTAIII on the Xbox until 2003. It was bigger, better and had more features on the Xbox. It sold very well considering the lower install base of the Xbox. By this time however, it was too late. The PS2 was already dominating the console world. GTAIII was a household name and it was the game that sent the PS2 into celebrity hardware status. Even after the game finally arrived for the Xbox, it continued to sell well on the PS2. Those single console owners that had Xboxes sti..."

EA: The death of Grand Theft Auto

xsynergyx | 7 days 20 hours ago | News | PC Playstation 2 Company  | views: 3660
"We all feared that if EA took over Take 2 they would destroy GTA forever just like they have done with takeovers in the past. I think that EA would have completely destroyed GTA by trying to make it ’their’ game and just lose that GTA touch altogether. It wouldn’t be GTA at all. No one can do it as good as Rockstar.

We no longer need to worry because it hasn’t happened and Take 2 has rejected all of EA’s offers.

What’s your view on this? Do you think EA had the potential to destroy the ..."

Forbe's Ten Things You Need to Know About GTA

Daisy | 10 days 8 hours ago | News | Playstation 2 Playstation 3  | views: 2438
"When did a videogame release become such a big deal?

Well, the U.S. videogame industry is worth a whopping $18.8 billion a year--that's less than McDonald's makes selling burgers and fries but 2.5 times as much as all the music CDs sold last year. It's also enough money to turn even the most conservative of entertainment executives' heads. Scott Steinberg, vice president of product marketing at Sony Computer Entertainment America, predicts we're about to see the "GTA Effect"--box office sa..."

Top 10 Grand Theft Auto secrets

Demon365 | 13 days 6 hours ago | Blog | Playstation 3 XBOX 360  | views: 1092
"10) Body Bags

El Castillo del Diablo, Bone County, San Andreas

San Andreas may be a harsh and grizzly place, but it’s a bit of a shock to find you’re not the only reason. Somebody is up to very bad things, and using a cave tucked away in the desert to dump the remains - in a pile of horribly stiff body bags. Oddly, the serial killer’s truck is still there too, parked right where the bodies were presumably slung from its bed. You can find this worrying little scene directly south of the ..."

Grand Theft Auto not as intelligent as they think?

theundertakergonzo | 17 days 2 hours ago | News | PC Playstation 2 Misc  | views: 2759
"Well, OK, yes. As a series, Grand Theft Auto has always been heaped with accolades from critics and fans - and for the most part, it's deserved them. But take a step back from the open-world approach and rampant criminality for a second, and ask yourself: deep down, is the series really as smart as it's given credit for? Or has the freedom to get into firefights with Florida retirees blinded us to its shortcomings?

With Grand Theft Auto IV set to redefine the series' tone and sense of smar..."

GTA- Hooker Beauty Contest

Deathsythe | 17 days 15 hours ago | Blog | Playstation 2 Playstation 3 Misc  | views: 1791
"Heroes, cities and decades change, but in the world of Grand Theft Auto, the hard-working hooker will forever remain. No matter what the year or console, we can always count on her to patrol our virtual streets.

Isn't it time, then, that this beloved gaming icon received the spotlight she deserves? And more importantly, isn't it fun to laugh at really cruddy last-gen graphics? We think so - which is why we've rounded up every prostitute we could find and pitted them against each other in a..."

How do underage teens get their hands on GTA?

StarJet | 19 days 2 hours ago | News | PC Playstation 2 Misc  | views: 2578
"But we all know that won’t prevent everyone under 17 from getting their hands on the game.
I recently talked to three teenagers who have owned and played “GTA” since well before the age of 17 — with and without their parents’ permission — about their past experiences with “GTA” games.
One 15 year-old told me his parents don’t allow him to play M-rated games without their approval, and “GTA” is strictly off-limits. However, he acquired “San Andreas” though a game-trading website, and they do..."

MS's Shane Kim : 360 already owns GTA IV

StarJet | February 09, 2008 | News | Playstation 2 Playstation 3  | views: 4403
"“We already own it, I believe, from a content standpoint, because we have the exclusive episodes,” trumpeted studio boss Shane Kim before adding that the “Xbox 360 is still going to have the ultimate experience for GTA IV… we have to make sure the customers know that.”


With Microsoft existing as the only console player with exclusive downloadable episodes for Grand Theft Auto IV, Microsoft sees the upcoming launch as a “great opportunity” for the Xbox 360 platform to mirror the developme..."

GTA the movie : The great thing that almost happened ... Or was it?

StarJet | February 05, 2008 | Blog | PC Playstation 2 Misc  | views: 5821
"How close was this deal to happening? Reporters at Variety (and, I have since learned, other publications) were preparing their stories based on conversations with the studio in question. Internally at Take 2, people were talking about it as a done deal. Then at the last minute, it all fell apart. I'm told Take 2 couldn't finalize terms with the studio, though I'm not sure if it was a purely financial issue or if, in the end, the publisher got cold feet about giving away rights to its baby.

Grand Theft Auto 7 NOT PS3 Exclusive!

ITANI | October 05, 2007 | News | Playstation 3 XBOX 360  | views: 3529
"Pay special attention to the text in the bold… look familiar? It should: It’s the same damn text, taken from a PlayStation blog post that was made on July 27th by Michael Shorrock, talking about how Sony locked up the rights to a NEW franchise from Rockstar. Outside of mentioning that Rockstar MADE the actual game, there is no mention of the GTA franchise anywhere in that post."

Study: Kids Can't Get Enough M-Rated Games

Storm | July 07, 2007 | News | Company Misc  | views: 1968
"Forbidden fruit.

It’s almost common sense: if you can’t have it, you suddenly want it.

So it should be no surprise that a recent survey in the July issue of the Journal of Adolescent Health found that many boys and girls aged 12-14 played games rated M, intended for those 17 & older.

The always controversial Grand Theft Auto series made it into the top three games for both boys and girls, with Halo being popular only with boys. The survey didn’t address how the kids got hold of M-rat..."

Grand Theft Auto's Most Dangerous Cities

NyffTotal90 | April 14, 2007 | News | Playstation 2 Playstation 3  | views: 1621
"The recent trailer for Grand Theft Auto IV portrays Liberty City as looking more like New York City, raising concerns among politicians over the inclusion of their city in a notoriously violent game. So, we investigated the cities of Grand Theft Auto (GTA) to find out which streets were the most dangerous to walk down as a gaming bystander."
