| GTA4 Hype Get (Trailer inc 3/29) GRAND THEFT AUTO IV This is THE game I'm looking forward to from 2007. Rockstar is apparently releasing a trailer for it later this month (countdown on link). Does anyone else fear it may lack enough innovation to keep the series alive? Where does R* go from GTA:SA? I hope they don't bank on shock and awe selling the series. I'd rather sales come from outstanding, unprecedented gameplay/sandbox opportunities than from Hot Coffee HD... I worry. |

| I am tremendously excited. I have high hopes for a next-gen GTA game after playing saints row. Saints Row was a shadow of GTA but it was still immensely fun IMO. If the people at rockstar keep the fun gameplay and add in some sexy next gen graphics, I will be more than satisfied. |

| anyone wanna start taking bets on the mock location? my money says Carcer city, the city which supposedly neighbors liberty city and is mentioned a few times in San Andreas, supposedly akin to Cleveland. or perhaps they would do the London thing again. if they decided to do the multiple city thing again, i would like something that reflects Atlantic City/Philadelphia/Trenton. of course i'm biased but between those cities theres plenty of griminess for a GTA game. |

As for the city it's based on, I'm really hoping for something not in the US this time. | |

+19 Internets | Same, but I also kind of hope it's not in Tokyo or something either. I know they have a handheld version or whatever in Europe or whatever, but I think I'd still prefer that

+48 Internets | SA was nothing but a copy and paste version of vice city with a new layout. Yawnable game at best. If they aren't revamping the whole game with IV then it will be a terrible, terrible game.

| Speaking of Rockstar... am I the only one who thinks L.A. Noire looks a hell of a lot more interesting than whatever the next GTA turns out to be? It looks like something straight out of a James Ellroy book. |

I am thinking there is more than just a city or two.. maybe something statewide or maybe.. "world" There was a rumor that they have 240 devs working on this.. now I don't know what the average dev pool is for most games out there.. but that sounds frickin' huge

| I bet it has a lot to do with the fact that there are 8+ million 360s out there and a much smaller number of PS3 and the PS32 number si not going up very fast. And with GTA4 not being exclusive anymore, they want to maximize their market.

| I am baffled by all the San Andreas hate i see on this site whenever GTA is brought up. Everyone says vice city was soooo much better when they are basically the same game but SA has more features and is more fleshed out. I just do not get it. |
