[QUOTE="SpruceCaboose"][QUOTE="carljohnson3456"] I dont regret buying GTAIV, I think it's one of the better games of this gen. I just dont think it lives up to the GTAs of last gen imo.Toriko42
And to me it dances atop all the prior games, and I was a huge fan of all of them. I just appreciated the growing up GTA did overall, and the fat trimming from SA.

I feel the same way, took the game back to what made GTA 3 great plus a touch of San Andreas and Vice City mixed in without the over the top crap I was not a fan of.

Thus the varying opinions :D

If you're into the main game the DLC is definitely worth the download. But it's nothing I'd cry about if i didn't have a 360.

I bought the PS3 version first because of the controls then I sold it and bought the 360 version. I realize the controls didn't even matter. Anyway, all my gripes with GTA IV were resolved with the Lost and Damned episodic content. I'm looking forward for the next episode since there will not be another GTA game for awhile.

[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]I'm not surprised to see some people don't like stellar games like GTA IV. Oh well, their loss. I bought both versions, btw. Panther501
we're sorry we don't like repetition and bad driving

so you don't like video games?

I bought the PS3 version of GTA4. I knew about the expansions the 360 version before the game was released so there you go. I don't have any regrets. If I decide I want to try the DLC in the future which isn't likely I'll pick up a bargin bin 360 copy for $15.

Grand Theft Auto IV was awesome for awhile, then it got boring and repetitive. I don't see why PS3 owners would be mad, Lost&Damned is not a must have. Also Killzone 2 is coming out soon, I doubt cows even care that much. I can't even finish Lost&Damned, I keep playing Street Fighter IV. I doubt they'll regret their purchase of the PS3 Grand Theft Auto IV. GTAIV is a disappointment to many, some people don't want more content for a boring game. And for the record, I own Lost&Damned. I bought mine from Gamestop for the maps :P

No for 2 reasons- my 360 RROD'd a couple of weeks after I bought the game. And secondly because I haven't gone back to GTA4 after finishing it months ago. I did like the game though, it just wasn't as fun as SA.

I don't care tbh, I didn't have a 360 when GTA4 came out, but I still haven't passed the 60% completion mark so buying DLC would be pointless when I still have the game to finish.

Wow, why so much hate towards this game? I just finished it yesterday, and I really liked it, it was an amazing experience. I guess the cool thing to do right now is to hate on GTA 4.

I agree with that. I got t for the 360 since it was meant to run better, plus we already knew about the DLC. To but it for the ps3 would be a little silly.

I have it for the PS3 and it didn't seem silly at all because my primary console is the PS3 and all multiplats I get for the PS3 and I didn't care for the dlc backthen and I don't care for the dlc now too.

I played and loved SA enough to finish it more than four times, and I can easily say that GTA4 trumps it in everything. It's my favorite game series, after all.

I agree with you completely, the game trumps the past GTAs and I loved every piece of it, one of the best this gen.

It's the same thing the happened when the Fallout 3 content came out, all of a sudden PS3 owners hated the game so it didn't matter they couldn't get the DLC. It's just like when an exclusive game comes out, even if it gets 10's everywhere everyone who can't play it hates it, or the extra snobby ones who can play it won't like it because it's popular. Halo, Gears and MGS 4 are prime examples of this natural phenom. I admit I used to be largely pro Sony and hated Halo, until I actually sat down with a 360, it gets about 7x more play then my "triple"

so what if the ps3 s your primary console? :lol: The ps3 is my main console too, but at the end of the day if a game runs better on the 360, and you have the choice of getting great DLC, why get it for the ps3? I could understand if the game has brilliant online play and you liked PSN more, but its GTA4, it shines in the singleplayer. even if you dont care for the DLC, it runs better on the 360, and even if you did not care for the DLC why kill any chance of getting it when you can get it for the 360, probably cheaper, and then later if you dont have anything else to pay you can get the DLC cheaper than a normal game and lasts just as long. Its the better version.

Yeah. It's pretty sad. And in both cases people knew ahead of time which version would get the extra content, so I don't feel bad for them at all. ESPECIALLY with the GTA DLC because so many people said it was going to be crap.

Have the 360 version. Don't think I'm going to buy 20 bucks worth of DLC until someone tells me how it actually is. And it's not like I want to reward Microsoft for their less than kosher business practice of getting a leg up on Sony by handing Rockstar money under the table.

Yeah, keep telling yourself that. I owned GTA IV on 360, and traded it in a month later, but I guess that's just me trying to convince myself I dislike the game.

Or maybe it's because GTA4 was not that great of a game that these gaming websites hyped it up to be. Maybe this GTA wasn't as good(or in this case, fun) as previous ones in the franchise. If we didn't like GTA4, what makes you think we would care about Lost and Damned? Just a new story with new weapons but with most of the problems that aggrevated us with GTA4 still there. I have a PS3 and got GTA4 and now I wish I had my $60 back. Flashy graphics cannot excuse the frustrating gameplay that makes every single mission a chore to complete. That's my 2 cents.

I bought the PS3 version and really couldn't care less... The DLC just doesn't interest melundy86_4
Same, but I'm thinking maybe that's because i'm not really looking into it/reading the preview to find out what I'm actually missing, the only video I saw made it look like the gang warfare thing from SA :P I presume there's a lot more that has kinda put me off.

well its true though, its inevitable that some cows are now saying they dont care when its obvious this is a blow to the PS3, but that aside i do understand why some will not care because i dont too, like everyone else has said i wish i didnt buy gta 4.

Well I have the 360 version, and I have no interest in the DLC. Hell, I lack any motivation to finish GTAIV after the bank mission, which to me felt like the climax of the game.

I hated that mission... that and the one where you have to escape that one old abandoned house with the cops all over you. Otherwise, the game was cake compared to the older games, lol.

I played and loved SA enough to finish it more than four times, and I can easily say that GTA4 trumps it in everything. It's my favorite game series, after all.

other then better graphics, voice acting and alot of extra crap like TV/shows etc, what does GTAIV have thats better then SA? o.o

Well for starters it has a better story, better characters, and much better writing than San Andreas or any other previous GTA game. Also the combat and driving surpass the other GTA games by miles, and on top of all that, a much better and more complete soundtrack. I could go on and on. The game was aiming for realism, so did you seriously expect jetpacks and tanks? Come on, R* made the right decision to make the series evolve and mature into something that defines this current gen. GTA4 did exactly that. It's just funny how people didn't want the series to evolve and stay the course so that it'll get stale quickly.

I disagree completely. I think the story was mellow dramatic and depressing. I've said it before... "Ah, I want to change..." - Niko "Give you 500 bucks to kill a guy" - Bad guy "Ok" - Niko The story wasnt that great... decent concept, coming to America looking for the American dream, but I think it could have been executed better. Better characters? I dont think so, not by a mile. The combat was much improved... but I'd beg to differ about the driving. I'd call that a wash. They handle differently, but they're equally easy to handle in my opinion. I just dont think the series "evolved" so much as it just took away stuff, including humor. I loved GTAIV, dont get me wrong. But I really felt like they did take away so much of what made me a fan of the previous games. And I'm not calling you wrong here, just saying, our opinions differ. lol. And this has nothing to do with the DLC, by the way, just GTAIV in general, lol.
