Grand Theft Auto IV trailer

[GPanime]

The first trailer will be live in 40 mins - http://www.rockstargames.com/IV/ :coolguy:

[big isy]

You know what would rock? If this was an early April fools joke. I kid, I kid. This should be good, especially since R* have already confirmed that it's not just another short trailer but something that'll show off quite a bit.

[Sirharper]

Sweet.

That would really suck:wtf: I hope that the site won't crash because of too many users:help:

[big isy]

Sounds scary:wtf: I hope that the site won't crash because of too many users:help:

Y'all should know that the trailer will likely be available on gametrailers straight off the bat as well as xbox.com's official gamepage for this.


EDIT: trailers up early here!!!!! (http://www.finalplanet.net/OURWORLDNOW/2005/grand-theft-auto-4-trailer.jpg)

:lol: You rock.
I fell of my chair)))

It better be at least a 15 min trailer. It would piss me off if after all the excitement it turned out to be some 2 min video.

[GPanime]

I think it would be a 5 min max trailer.

[big isy]

I think it would be a 5 min max trailer.

I'd be pleasantly surprised if it were longer than that.

[big isy]

under 7 mins

[GPanime]

Till that site crashes :lol:

[big isy]

notice the lack of activity on these forums all of a sudden? Everyone's glued to the countdown :lmao:

[Kinjutsumaru]

[GPanime]

And the time is up...

[big isy]

its down

[Raithgar]

lol, i waited till the clock finished.. page refreshed.. and poof

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.

ether the site crashed already.. or the vid wasn't ready yet
hope others had better luck than I did

[GPanime]

Just as I predicted :Lmao:

[big isy]

the entire internet has just gone potty lol

Wow, reached far

[GPanime]

How do you know????
"Grand Theft Auto IV™ is now finally on the horizon."

...'the horizon is an imaginary line that disappears as you approach it.'

[big isy]

I got as far as a train miving and then boom it finished. 3 seconds.

[Sirharper]

Crashed.

When are these people going to learn to use services like Akamai?

http://www.akamai.com/

[Raithgar]

just tried the link from XBox.com..

gotten a new yet interesting error..

Not Found
The requested URL /sanandreas/ was not found on this server.

can anybody else verify this?

[GPanime]

Yeah, I got the same error/

[Sirharper]

With the Xbox link I got through but it won't stream.

[big isy]

teamxbox it and then use the quicktime option

[Sirharper]

Great call biggie...worked great.

I love it, graphics look very impressive.

[Kinjutsumaru]

Just saw it and I'm extremely underwhelmed. I can't believe I wasted my time tying to watch that.

[big isy]

just a side note, careful not to spoil anything as someone may not have seen it ;)

[big isy]

Just saw it and I'm extremely underwhelmed. I can't believe I wasted my time tying to watch that.

Thats to be expected, given the fact that we've been waiting for this for a long time.

I'm just disappointed with the trailer itself. I expected something more in depth and meaty.

[big isy]

I love it. Notice the Heart stopper burger sign? Or the secret messages in the Wall Street board thingy? I lol'd

[GPanime]

I like it.

[Raithgar]

gave up on trying to stream it... found the link to just download it..

[big isy]

I did the same thing raithgar. I watched it via streaming but the quality was poop compared to the downloaded version.

[big isy]

Also, try www.eurogamer.net

[Raithgar]

LOL.. streaming.. all I was able to see was the train move a bit.. then freeze.. but the audio kept going..

[Squidpunch]

two words "graphically amazing"

[Karma]

Can't really tell much from the trailer IMO. Graphics look ok though.
I'm kind of on the fence with regard to this game. If it's anything like Crackdown where the game relies on getting achievements for most of its content then I'll probably pass on it.

[Raithgar]

if the graphics are based on "in game" and not cut scenes.. it will be great (visually). If not, I wont be surprised to see legions of fans hitting the message boards with disgust of "false hopes".

[DeaconBlade]

meh. but then i've never been a Grand Theft fan...but i just thought to myself again...meh.

[big isy]

Its only mind blowing for fans really. Can't deny that it looks good though. Also. LIBERTY CITY FTW!

[DJSteel]

looks sweet...more detailed that Saint's Row

[big isy]

And it'll almost definitely have aircraft....something missing from Saints row because they couldn't do it.

[DJSteel]

but I bet GTA won't have insurance fraud missions...which are my favorite in Saints Row...

[big isy]

I wouldn't hold out anything just yet. Knowing R*, they'll probably have something completely ridiculous.

Anyway, should we make another thread for GTA discussing what we think will be in the game or just continue it here? You the mod so suggest away!

[DJSteel]

it's about the preview.. so it should be okay to discuss...

[Souf Centrol]

I think it would be better to just start another thread for no one will have to read all of this one just to get to the suggestions, or someone has some good ones but don't know that we're doing it and they might not come in this thread

[big isy]

Soufs right but I already made the darn post. DJ could ya be a pal and move into anew thread?

[Sirharper]

Liberty City for sure. It was plastered everywhere.
