from gaf:
new GTA4 info from a turkish xbox magazine
1) When you move, there is a slight vibration with every footstep when you run
2) The HUD has been removed- no health or armour indicators, it is all visual- and if you have armour, you actually have a bulletproof vest which visually deteriates
3) Flamethrower and rocket launcher are still in the game
4) Explosions are larger than ever, and there is a mission in the game based on creating an awesome chain reaction of car explosions- apparently this looks awesome
4) Cars dont explode unless you blow them up- ie they wont explode if you just keep crashing or hitting them- you have to rocket launch into them
5) Niko doesnt get tired- you can run forever, it just wont be as fast as previously.
6) more RPG elements, ie - for a mission, you must catch the train at 7pm, and if you dont, you dont get to do that particular mission (they just gave this as an example, the scenario isnt confirmed in the game yet)
7) Gore is back and better, bullet wounds show, blood appears where you shoot people, they limp if you shoot them in the leg, and hold their arm if you shoot their arm. Apparently when you run someone over it is disturbing (but they gave no more detail)
No eating, girlfriends, keeping fit- but your skills do improve over time (driving etc)
9) Secret vehicles and "plenty of goodies" at 100% completion- no more details given (either not revealed or simply not known yet)
10) Land size is bigger than the 3 cities (not country) in SA put together
11) graphics are better than Saints Row- draw distance is literally as far as you can see
12) new trailer will be on the internet 28th of June

It's fake info. It came from an "xbox magazine of turkey". Turkey doesn't have an official xbox magazine.

i liked some of the things mentioned, though.
ah well, just 28th is still so far :-\

fake NPD numbers, and now fake game news

I don't like some of the things mentioned, like how if you skip on doing a mission, you can't do it ever again.
I like the "cars can only explode from flamethrowers" and the new HUD bits myself

''some'' :p
i liked the one about cars not exploding in the old way, too.

fake NPD numbers, and now fake game news
fake npd numbers?

Most of that info in this "preview" are coming too early in the game. Rockstar does not like displaying info like this to the press. Usually, the press doesn't get to play the games until the final copies are shipped out, and most of the details of the games are behind closed doors. The chances of the press seeing the HUD before the game's release, especially from a magazine from TURKEY are slim to none. Even more so when it coems to telling them about the missions you go on. Chances are, we will know zilch about the game until it's release. We will be spoon fed tiny details. It's being treated like a Nintendo game.

some stunt the OP did on OA weeks ago...

core gameplay needs to see a significant overhaul for me to give a shit.
that means VASTLY improved NPC ai..
more realistic violence
inclusion missions that aren't fetch quests or assassin runs
fully modeled interiors of buildings
otherwise, it's going to be the same tired approach, only with a next-gen sheen.

It's pretty much got all of this from the info we know as of now.
