Written by fx on April 17, 2008 – 7:45 amAs the days count down to the biggest gaming release of the year (imho), the GTA IV previews and features are piling up. 1UP.com has a new information, with some nice screenshots on the maturity on the gaming franchise and what we can expect.
If — for the purposes of the standard preview preamble — we were to liken the Grand Theft Auto series to the U.S. primary education system, it breaks down quite conveniently. So what the heck, let’s do it. [Continue at 1UP.com]…

Grand Theft Auto IV: Pros and Cons

In easily the most interesting GTA IV article I’ve read recently; Games Radar debates 12 potential flaws in the new GTA. From the removal of customization, the loss of humour, the smaller world etc; Games Radar discusses the potential problems with Rockstar’s decisions and then the positive side of it.
You’ve heard the hype. Grand Theft Auto IV is going to be amazing… monumental… revolutionary… life changing… world altering… universe shifting… the best game of the year, if not the best thing in the history of EVER.
Or is it…?!

GTA4 Beaten by Journalist
Written by fx on April 6, 2008 – 9:01 amThe lucky Rob Taylor from Xbox World is officially the first gamer to finish GTA IV. The sadness I feel is two fold really; firstly I’m not the first. This upsets my very soul.
Secondly; he allegedly did it in some 25 hours - I was hoping for more given there is apparantly 8 hours of video in the game. Does this mean there are under 1 days worth of gameplay hours?
“That’s a hard question to answer really. I finished the story mode in 24 hours, without skipping cut scenes, but I literally blitzed through and hardly took on any side missions. If I was to play it again (which I will be, right on launch day!) I’d say to wrap up the story will take at least 40 hours at a normal pace, plus another – say, 25? – to wrap up the remainder of the missions. In truth though, you could be paving the streets of Liberty City in a year’s time and still not have discovered everything.”
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?? I’m damned awesome at gaming! (by the way) What does “blitzed” mean for us, the overactive gamers with too many consoles and too much rage.. WILL I BE FINISHED IN A DAY?
