The very last Grand Theft Auto 4 trailer before release has hit the net, and once again Rockstar shows they can cut one like nothing else.
Still can’t believe that this is gameplay footage. Gamevideos and EGM also have an in-depth analysis that goes practically frame by frame through the whole thing and identifies all the little moments that go into making it so beautiful. It’s a tad geeky (alright, more than a little bit) but if you’re like me, the more you hear about this game, the more you want it.
One thing we haven’t touched on here is the multiplayer in the game. It’s going to support 16 players and have 15 modes of play, everything from simple deatchmatches and races, to co-op single player missions and a cops and robbers type game. There’s still a bit of mystery around some of the modes, but it’s already obvious it’s going to be hard playing the single player mode when everyone’s killing each other online.
Another thing that hasn’t been fully revealed is the soundtrack. The GTA series has easily had some of the best soundtracks ever made, and this one looks to be no exception. Rather than focus on a single decade, it’ll have music of all types, from all over the world. Another cool feature? You can get a mp3 player and walk around listening to the radio. No more wishing you didn’t have to leave the car because a great song (or DJ Lazlow… that guy cracks me up) is on.
April 29th, people. You’ll know it’s here when you see every single person on your friends list playing it.

Not sure about having an mp3 player in-game. I do know that you can use your in-game cell phone to download music to your amazon.com account.
As the game starts you’ll have the most primitive phone ever, and then you’ll have to upgrade it to upload videos, mp3 – yeah, man, you’ll be able to listen mp3 running and shooting. so anyway you are a beacon of un-truth, lucas
He's not really a beacon of untruth…. It does let you purchase things to an Amazon account.
This one looks so good (I mean the trailer)..
Upon release, I might not be seeing the sun for a few weeks.
Another year, another GTA…yawn.
This game will really shine on the PS3. I can only imagine how much better it would have been if it was exclusive. One things for sure, XBOX360's lack of a HDD has done nothing but hinder and delay the devs.
I can't wait for the GETAWAY for PS3. I'd play that game anyday over this crap.
I find the Getaway better because they totally recreate london, you have to drive on the left hand side of the road and everything. The car chases get pretty intense to. Plus, the plot is much more cinematic so you don't get bored of the game and stop playing 40 hrs in.
Not to mention the demo I saw was practically photo realistic and they dont bore you to death w/ those stupid mini games that are an excuse for real gameplay.
Yeah, it was the 360 that held back the development, sure, that's why they had to delay it several months because of the programming issues with the PS3. The game was done at the time of the original release.
Getaway? Are you serious? Have they made a Getaway that was worth anything in the past six years? The original was completely stomped by Vice City so I'm not quite sure why they bother. Getaway was nothing more than a GTA wanna-be, like Saint's Row, I'm not sure why part 3 would be any different. But go play it. By yourself, since there probably won't be anything multiplayer in it to compare, and if GTAIV is out this year, why would you need a copycat?
The Getaway and it's ilk are the direct-to-video cash-ins of the video game world. Quickly digested, easily forgotten.
