Lol, there are no loading screens in this game, except at the beginning when you start up the game.

Those of you who have played the game, have they resolved the problem of when people are shooting at you the cops standing there watching don't do anything but when you shoot back the cops start shooting you?

Ive only had a quick play so far but it looks pretty good! The graphics actually look a lot better than they did on the previews.

NO way it could run on regular xbox.
I enjoyed the little bit I got to play on my lunch break but I have a few annoyances (mainly because I am used to the old GTA so much)
In the old one when you turned you had zero turning radius and the camera just rotated (unrealistically)? In this one the physics have you actually turn. so you gotta remember that you cant just magically spin and turn you have to have room to turn around. thats pretty hard to get used to!
.. cars control really realistic so you cant drive an old hooptie around at 70mph and magically whip around a 90 degree turn and not run into stuff or slide out of control.. handbrake turns are much more realistic now, but again, this extra realism is hard to get used to.
Aside from that, its AWESOME. Go in the apartment and watch the tv. Flip around until you see 'The Man Room' on. Its the TV show with Bas Rutten that giguer was showing us a month or so back and its hilarious.

Cool thanks. I really don't want to buy a new console. I might wait for the next big thing I guess. By the time I buy a 360 or PS3 and GTA4. Then they'll have Xbox 720, PS4 and the new GTA5.
I wonder when/if it comes out on PC will it be any good. The graffix look like it be too much, even for my desktop.

Yeah I was kinda thinking the same thing. Except I think now I'm just going to break down and buy a ps3 because it will probably be a long time before the next playstation or xbox comes out.

Ya your right, I started to realize that after I made my post, but the load time isn't too bad especially when you look back at the old GTA's.
Oh and about the cop thing they shoot at you right away if you do something.

I've been playing it non-stop since Tuesday morning (coincidentally I had some time off work this week). It is amazing, I've got the PS3 version and it is so good. Much better and more realistic than before, cars drive much better and the shooting is much improved. So much to do in game it would be pointless to list them. Some interesting facts I found out whilst playing this, 1 a playstation pad fully charged takes 13 1/2 hours to run out, in the same time span my fingers and wrist start aching too much to play. Coincidence? I think not.....
hehe

I'm with you!
I'm having serious GTA withdrawals.
I may have to go buy San Andreas...but that will probably only make me want IV even more!

Honestly the game is fun as hell and all but its the exact same thing as SA. I dunno why all of this "most revolutionary ever" talk is from, GTA3 was the most revolutionary game ever because it started this madness. I remember getting GTA3 the day it came out and just being in legit awe looking at the screen.
4 looks great and the story is awesome, but the first 20 missions or so suck and the driving is pretty spotty.
Fun game but dont beat yourselves up about it, go fire up San Andreas.
