yay so no more gangsta crap

IMO I like the Hip-Hop/Gangsta theme better because it actually relates to me in some way, coming from LA. But I always knew GTA IV was going to be in New York ever since they announced it, just didn't know what theme.

The graphics look amazing though for a game of that size, and the lighting and water looks great as well. Can't wait for it on the Xbox 360!

Btw, how do you guys know that it will be DX10 for the PC?

If it does come for PC it will be a year after the relase on PS3 and 360 just like with all the others.

Sad but true :( But I don't think Rockstar will let us (the PC-Gamers) down and just release it on consoles... When they release it 2008 it should have DX10. If it is just DX9, i can live with it. Tho differences between DX10 and 9 aren't that big, expect for a lot of blur and some perfomance-related stuff.

liberty city easter eggs in the trailer.

Well first of all, WOOHOO for gta4, but am f*ckin' pissed for another liberty city...come on, what is this...number 5? So the difference between..

GTA4 will probably be bigger, contain landmarks, be little more accurate city wise, and be more livelier.

Hopefully the episodic content will make up a good game...

AND THANK :respect: GOD it not LONDON! :pimp:

I'm hoping it is the whole city and not a lame excuse for it, or just one burough, ala spiderman 2 which was just manhattan. I want to be able to go from queens to the bronx, to staten island, to Manhattan, and to brooklyn
