GTA 4 looks alot different from the other gta games. After comparing the second GTA 4 trailer with the first San Andreas trailer, you can easily see the difference. It feels so much more tense and serious then the San Andreas. Also I'm getting the feeling that there is a high chance you won't be able to pick what you're character looks like since the whole trailer is based around that one character. In San Andreas for instance, the trailers didn't show one specific character, but just kept showing the different things they were doing such as when they were playing basketball or when one of the gangsters drove around with hydrolics. How do you think that GTA 4 will be different from san andreas? (I'm not talking graphic wise just gameplay wiser)

the big difference for me is graphics, physics, and multiplayer.

It won't be much different. Better graphics, better physics....thats about it. It will have a kickass storyline as always, great characters, and great voice acting. I'm not upset that it won't be that different from SA, because SA was great. Lets just be happy that hitting someone with a car is supposedly "very disturbing" this time around. That is good.

Well, you can hi-jack helicopters by hanging over them, and maybe a new aiming system (Hopfully) and as well as more indoor enviroments. Which would be great, think about it, going into the Empire State building, (If that's what it is called in this game) and going all the way to the top......So yeah, expect alot of improvements over SA, but some may not be so good, but oh well, I have to wait and see....

Also if anyone would be so kind to read my story I wrote on my blog. *Just click on my name) let me know how it is....comment

I think they will just add and subtract little features that we probably won't even notice.

im looking forward to less black people, less gangsta rap, more killable/destroyable things, smoother graphics, and a storyline that doesnt suck since all GTA's up until san andreas were pure gold, and SA was an incredibly long version of boiling dog turds in a frying pan.PerfectWhenDead

No bikes? Man I loved stealing them and just going around the place. :(

The biggest difference I'm hoping for is scale. The city seems more real, way more people, just an overall city feel to it.

If the latest trailer is any indication, a lower frame rate. I'll chalk that up to an "early build" (though I can't understand why you'd release a trailer when it looks like crap) and say that it'll be a somewhat smaller city but with more interiors, no airplanes or bicycles, new dynamics involving how to get your missions (i.e. you can call THEM now), more serious tone (hopefully the game won't take itself TOO seriously) and that some of the ridiculous RPG-type elements from San Andreas will be scrapped.

well im not sure if you guys noticed this, but that part that Niko is walking towards the camera and the background keeps changing....like seconds after that scene you see him fleein for the cops and stops, if you stop the clip you'll be able to see a Binco, so atleast we know we can change his gear...the game shouldn't be that much different from SA as far as leaving out some fun features SA had brought to the table

The game will have a more serious story. No more over-the-top Vice City/Scarface story, which is a good thing.
