i had it preordered for the 360 before i owned a 360. got the limited version that comes with the lockbox and the duffel bag and such.

ps3 or 360, this game is going to be off the chain. when i preordered it (a year ago) the ps3 still didn't look appealing to me, so i went with the 360 version... i kind of wish i hadn't, because i'm going to miss playing with the playstation controller. but... either way. san andreas destroyed my life four years ago. i've picked up most of the pieces, but can't wait to throw it all away again.

it could have been the regular copy covered in anthrax, i still would have bought it. a new GTA is a rare occasion! and i'll probably use the lockbox as a change tray or something. art book i'll look at once, cd i'll listen to once (i hate compilations), duffel bag might be useful if it's not a total piece of shit.

Whens it coming out again? I might hit up Amazon for it or hold my breath we get some at the BX here in Oki.

Im debating on whether or not to preorder it. If the BX dont have it, i may be able to find a JDM one off base. Since its world wide release, more than likely the JDM one will also have the english layer to it.

BB and CC. You'll be able to get it at places like that.

I used to pre-order every game I wanted. But I'd always get screwed because the place I ordered it from would end up getting their shipment late. So while everyone was at home enjoying their new game, I'm waiting around.

I'm gonna see if Walmart will have it at midnight. I might go that route.

Nope, I had it pre-ordered at gamestop, but then my friend pre-ordered it at Best buy for me as a birthday present.
Since he also gave me a gift card to pay for the rest of it at Best Buy, I'm getting it there.

Maybe I'll see if I can switch my Gamestop preorder over to Saints Row 2 or Midnight Club LA.

Found this preview over on neogaf

We've finished Grand Theft Auto IV, and without spoiling our upcoming set of reviews in Electronic Gaming Monthly and here on 1UP, the game truly serves as a commencement ceremony for the series. While we wait for the slow passage of time between now and the game's release, here's a quick orientation for when it arrives:

* Niko Bellic has done some bad things. He's a drifting merchant marine lured to America by the promise of false dreams, which are inflated by his cousin Roman -- a man who is best described as "sketchy." It's a setup that's typical of the previous GTA games (ne'er-do-well arrives on the scene with grand plans, and crime ensues), but as Niko?s story unfolds, it does so in a manner that's considerably more focused and restrained than what we saw with Tommy Vercetti in Vice City or CJ from San Andreas. The script is penned by Rupert Humphries and Dan Houser, and rarely do they stray from their goals: believable and likable characters, a solid, traditional crime story, and the usual splash of irreverent social satire. It's the opposite of San Andreas' massive sprawl, in terms of both geographical landscape and plot ambitions.

* Rockstar are true masters of the videogame cut-scene: They're framed and blocked with proper film techniques and interesting camera angles, the animation is completely natural (never too slow, jerky, or overexaggerated), the voice acting is properly emotive, and they're just the right length.

* Like any good character-driven tale, there are twists and turns, deaths and betrayals...but in a first for the GTA series, there now are choices -- and they're significant ones at that. A big theme of the game is how Niko's free-agent approach to his work changes the balance of power in Liberty City's underworld. You'll be involved with the Irish, Puerto Ricans, Rastafarians, government agencies, and, of course, the ruling Italian crime families. You'll be doing something for one group to the detriment of another, and at certain points you're asked to make final allegiances that affect what missions you can select and how the story unfolds. And because the characters are so easy to get attached to, those decisions can be surprisingly difficult.

* Niko may be the main character, but Liberty City -- and the life it exudes -- is the star. Many new elements are at play that go beyond the usual pedestrian foot traffic and wisecracking radio DJs -- this time, it's a cross-referencing multimedia assault. Driving around the city, you might hear a radio spot for WEAZEL News mentioning that the bridges and tunnels remain closed due to a terror threat. During your first visit to an Internet café, The Liberty Tree's website has an actual story with more background info on the closures. Then you spot a banner ad at the bottom of the page for a social networking site called Craplist. Perusing the "women seeking men" listings, you find a post, reply to it, and set up a date for Thursday night. And while you're checking e-mail, your pal Brucie has located another car you can boost for him for a quick afternoon's work.

* The missions, characters, locations, Internet, radio, television, dating...everything bleeds into each other, and the new cellphone gives you a new sense of mobility and flexibility that bridges the game's story with the roaming, make-your-own-fun chaos that made GTA famous. Plus, if you're so inclined and not in any particular hurry, you can take a full-length real-time cab ride anywhere in the city while looking out the windows and listening to the cabbie's preferred radio station. You know, see the sights.

* You'll likely notice the same graphical "quirks" that the series has dealt with since the jump to 3D. The same filmlike, grainy framerate exists and usually holds steady, but it can momentarily dip when things get frantic. There's some long-distance graphical fade-in as well as some street-level hazards that appear only after you hit them. Traffic will be nonexistent one second, then three cars deep when you rotate the camera back around, and then completely disappear when your wanted level gets to two or three stars (which is oh-so-fun when you desperately need a getaway vehicle). But even these problems have been "upgraded" in a sense for GTA4: An artistic application of filters hides some of the uglier character models, there's more types of cars to choose from, and overall, the feel of the city trumps any of the shortcomings we're familiar with by now. But you'll be able to see that in the screenshots and eventual videos.

* As previously mentioned, GTA4's story is focused. So much so that you won't be seeing any amusing yet totally out of context missions like invading top-secret government alien research bases. There's a lot of driving, following, shooting, and evading as you do your freelance work around the city. But that's not to say there aren't climactic moments or centerpiece events -- they just seem a little more spaced out along the lengthy campaign. It'd be silly to call this more "realistic," but it's definitely more in line with the genre's representations in television and film.

* The oft-maligned mission structure, where death or capture at any point of the process means restarting from the beginning, is partially redeemed by the cellphone: You still have to start from the beginning of the mission, but now you can skip from jail or the hospital immediately to the starting point. And to help placate those with restart fatigue, Rockstar threw in some different character dialogue for the second try (if you have to try for a third time, your accomplices will suggest that you all be quiet and just listen to the radio until you get there). It's still frustrating to fail a mission in its final stages due to random traffic interference or lucky cops, but that just appears to be the nature of the open-world beast.

* And, oh yes, the shooting. Pulling the left trigger halfway on the 360 controller lets you aim a weapon freely, while a full pull locks on to the closest enemy or nonplayable character in your camera's view. It's still not perfect since there doesn't seem to be much of a priority system in place that determines what enemy poses the more imminent threat, but the bonus is the new cover system, which gives you enough time to settle down your shot and lock on to your intended target

* * *

Believe it or not, all of these notes barely scratch the surface.There's much, much more that can be said about GTA4 that you'll undoubtedly hear us and other outlets say as we get closer to (and even beyond) release. Be sure to monitor our coverage hub page for the most recent updates, participate on our message boards, and look forward to our review, videos, and podcast discussions in the coming days.

Oh, and make sure to set aside some time the week of April 29. You'll need it.

Ask and you shall receive.

You won't get to play as Niko. Instead, you'll create a custom character (dude or babe) from about a half-dozen options. While the options we were shown were fairly limited, new clothes and accessories unlock as you rank up. Ranks run from 0-10, with experience earned by collecting cash in multiplayer. Cash is dropped by opponents and can be nabbed by anyone and is also automatically earned for performing certain tasks in the various modes. We didn't get to experience the leveling system, but it appears fairly simple. It's meant to reward you for playing a lot of multiplayer, but leveling up your character isn't the focus as it tends to be in Call of Duty 4 and Rainbow Six Vegas 2.

So I paid off my preorder tonight, traded in GT5 prologue, final fantasy tactics for psp and a bunch of old PS2 and xbox games.

I had some extra money with all the trade-ins so I got GTA vice city for xbox and I'm playing that. Forgot how much fun it was...

I also preordered metal gear solid 4 collectors edition, so I got a bluray with a bunch of stuff on it and a beta code for the online beta starting this weekend.

yeah, M$ paid 55 mil to Take Two / Rockstar for exclusive content, plus you will notice most of the advertising is for 360. Microsoft is trying to change the association of "gta = playstation" since all the last gen games of gta were mostly bought for ps2, I'm not saying this is bad, or trying to start a fanboy war, I am simply saying what they are doing and why, I think it is smart, and if Sony is smart they will step there game up, although on their blog they stated that Rockstar / Take Two wanted to make and exclusive game for PS3, just not gta, that they thought only the PS3 could handle.

In the end, it makes no difference to me, we all get GTA4, but the main reason I bought PS3 was for MGS4 which is exclusive to Sony.

I couldnt agree more, I didnt like the fact that on ps2 and xbox gta was ps2 exclusive and it took like ayear and a half for it to go to xbox, now it gets released at the same time and one has more stuff that the other?! Such crap, besides the multi console game takes away from the fun of having game that your friends dont have so you can in their faces for buyin somethin else, well at least their are a few like that, to all the ps3 owners halo 3/bioshock bitches:fawkd:lol

Hooray, I love the GTA series, I've been following all the updates on http://www.planetgta.com every since the first rumors started, I can't wait.

i kinda hate the whole "multi" console games... just ads to the "what console to buy" delima.. you buy one of the games, then think "dam the other one is better its got more shit" in this case, the 360 with GTA4.
True, I heard about how there was a bunch of features they wanted to take advantage of on the PS3 with this game, but in the end they weren't able to because the 360 wouldn't be able to run it well (gerrr thank Xbox for holding this game back), multi-console games have to be "dumbed" down in many cases such as this, just so they will run efficiently on all the consoles they're released for.

The PS3 is going to have downloadable content as well by the way, I don't know why someone said it wouldn't, though I'm never paying money for a gaming console again, I'm just going to wait for the PC version, which usually ends up being the best anyway since they have more time to improve on it.

hhuummmmm this game is making me wonder a lil bit. After watching all the game play, don't get me wrong i love gta but it seems that saints row 2 might be better.......:confused::ugh::confused:
To me the GTA games have never been as much about the gameplay as they are about the atmosphere and all the humor and references scattered throughout the games.

When I went to gamestop to see if I could upgrade my reservation to a special edition, the guy said rockstar is only sending out enough SEs to cover the preorders.

He said the only way I could get one was if someone cancelled their reservation...

you could preorder the SE.. to get one you probably would have had to preorder it. or just go beat down the line at walmart.
but it's a duffel bag, lock box, and some shit i'll look at once ever. i guess the lock box will be cool though.

The reason I don't reserve any more is because I started getting screwed by the places I'd reserve a game at. I'd go to get the game first thing in the morning and they would be the only damn people who's shipment was delayed. So while I'm waiting around all day for the game, people are just walking into Target and Best Buy and leaving with a copy.
