Flag officially planted :P

What do I want from the trailer? Some friggin' gameplay! That's what I want. From the game I wholeheartedly agree with you about a decent map, or, if that's not possible, some sort of indicator. Not sure about wanting a huge yellow arrow above my car, but I guess that's better than nothing. I'd love to see more dark, acid humor.

This thread should float. They all floaaat down here.

Hey, gg. Don't you want a balloon?

[...] I want a giant waypoint arrow like Crazy Taxi. gaminggeek

...While Rockstar is reluctant to discuss the details, time is a big factor in GTA IV. The new trailer indicates in subtle ways how the passage of time might affect the game, and there are clues that indicate some missions, or mission elements, might be time-specific." The Internet

What is 6pm GMT in CET+1?

From the looks of it they are going after a more serious approach. That being said, all i have to say is:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Why god, why?!!!

You blew it up, you maniacs, DARN YOU, DARN YOU ALL TO HECK!

I'm really disappointed by the video quality, it's garbage. The trailer itself was great, though. It's action-packed, great music, nice selection of scenes, and leaves you desperately wanting more - just like it should. Can't wait to see it in HD.

You can download the HD version from www.rockstar.com As for me: Cons:BlackHawk,Character animations, grabing vehicles, swat animations. Drawbacks: the interior of stallion. It looks h-o-r-r-i-b-l-e

A huge stupid arrow that just screams "Hey, you're playing a game!" is the last thing I want. Such crap should be a thing of the past in all games. I'm sure there are more subtle, better ways to deal with that issue.

cluckin bell is back for 99 cents and a new form of police, I think its M.O.O.S.E or something like that. And don't worry about the tone of the trailers, their like spiderman trailers, just because their serious doesn't mean the movie/game is not completly devoid of satire and comedy. How do I know? theres a 69th diner man!

For a better quality video,click here.

It really looks a lot better now. I love everything about the trailer, and the satire is there, you guys just aren't looking. Cluckin' Bell truck with a "Cock-a-doodle-doo" logo, a guy that looks like Claude kicking someone on the playground, and a grafitti of the guy from the GTA III cover...

Much better quality, I think it looks stupendous. Might actually make me buy a 360.

Here is a snag from the trailer. I'll upload a few more in a sec. Need to change format.

So much better thanks. I am floored by the detail in everything. Just look at the toll booth scene, its looks like a real toll booth, its crazy. I can't wait to see footage of someone playing the game it most look amazing.dvader654

It's also available for download here at GameSpot. The level of detail is indeed incredible (check the rear mirror) especially considering the game's scope, indoor environments, and that there's no loading whatsoever.

I updated the original post.

No loading? I like that, I like that a lot! Again, I must stress how much new excitment this trailer has given me, I really want it to be October now.

the game looks killer in every way!!!
love the comedy it showed

Ok, after seing the higher res trailer a couple of times I'm starting to warm up to the game a bit more. The detail is staggering. And reading about the engines behind the game makes me optimistic about the gunplay. Also, the music in the trailer is nice, is it confirmed to be in the game?

Edit: nice captures EndersAres :)

I want to see gameplay. This just looks like a 1080p, hgiher poly, more texture verisons of other GTAs. I l9ove the game/series but the same old, shoot cops, kill hookers, carjack a civilian is getting to be old. Like "the Princecess is in the other Castle" old. Still looking forward to it but not like SA or Vice City.

WTF you guys, the graphics look horrible compared to like almost every other next gen game ever. What is everyone talking about awesome graphics? o_0 Other than that the tone and feel of the game is awesome, and the action and storytelling look like its going to be top of the line here, cant wait.GodModeEnabled

I don't know how to describe it, but i like these graphics more than any other next gen games.

It sort os brings back memories of my first time playing GTA3 for some reason.

Over all I'm a sucker for the gritty look of the game. Saints Row was too bright.

agree totally about Saints Row and this game, it has a grimey yet artistic look which does more for me than shiney textures lol.

Love the sig man.

Full metal Jacket FTW!

BTW the trailer is avaliable to download on both Xbox Marketplace and PSN (Wow Sony put up a trailer on time.)dvader654

Im scared...So scared...First GG gets the plant...And PSN has it? What is next!!! *Cowers in fear under table*

Anyways, After reading what it has. I'm so excited. One Thing I hope returns is Cheat Codes. Its one of the few games...Cheat codes really are one of the best parts of playing. *Loves his Tank Fortress* They never dissappeared in 3

Took these myself. Enjoy :)

View of Liberty City.

"We're all looking for that 'special someone.'"

Niko in the kitchen, 'bout to cook up some dinner. Small details: vegetables laying around, pots and pans hanging on the walls. Note that there will be no load times when traversing between interiors and exteriors in GTA IV.

Bustin' in. Wood chips on the door splinter off as Niko kicks it in. This hints at object-specific environmental damage (i.e. wood will splinter like wood, metal will bend like metal).

Nice lighting on the helicopter

Cop character models seem more diverse this time. Their uniforms are also more detailed.

New character?

Niko about to taste the box cutter

lol @ the dude getting his *** kicked in the garbage can

Notice how Niko's eyes scan back and forth as he walks down the street. This level of detail would have been very difficult to implement in last gen GTA's.

Check out the sparks and vehicular damage as the car gets ripped up. Bullets leave holes on car exteriors this time.

Looks like an AK47 to me. You can barely make out the curved clip.

I don't know where you're going dude, but it's a long way down...

Hanging off rear bumpers and helicopters? Crazy. I wonder if this is just a cut-scene or if it will be an in-game mechanic.

Shakin' up some pansy. Notice the skin's glow as the sun radiates onto it.

Another close-up

Bullet damage on the windshield. Does this shot hint at an in-car dash view a la PGR3?

Sweet ride 8)

Notice the detail of the car's brand located on the front. Note also the changes in color tone from the previous shots.

Bike helmets = 8) The bike itself looks like an updated model of the PCJ from Vice City

The diving-out-of-the-car mechanic will make a comeback.

Apparently gas stations will explode if you ram into them this time around.

The iPhone? Rockstar has said that in GTA IV, you will be taking more control over your mission choices. Instead of going to people and receiving calls all the time, you will be calling them.

Gamevideos has a breakdown of the trailer up. It's pretty well done to see them point out the little details of the trailer when you pause it.

The roof top shot with the chopper looks awesome. Peep it.
