cant wait to get it friday.... and with tthe new patch its looking all good... goodbye summer!!

that sounds groovy, beating halo 3 but I still think its just a mindless killing game so no buy for me.

mindless killing game GTA IV is most certainly not mate best story in a video game ever !!!!!! @ zachp18

cant wait for the review which strangely took you guys quite a while

It was expected, this game let one speechless, I hate the "for bullies and gangsta" aura that people made around him, his dialogues are wonderfull, It have potential almost as Eastern Promises and could be liked for people who likes Mario Puzio work. The other GTAs didn't call my antettion, but this game is a huge step foward in adult storytelling, most of the characters are grey, not white or black.

psn id: gingo... this truly shows how much the games industry has grown over the last few years so maybe hollywood were right to be scared by the GTA4 launch

if they want continue like this...stay away from EA.

Congradulations to RockStar and Take-Two. But is that money enough for Take Two? Seeing as they nearly went bankrupt...

Well Deserved.

Thanks Rockstar for producing the best game of all time! They'll do it again with their next GTA in probably 4 years.

glad I still don't have this game though... I'd much rather not play this game and keep my PS3 running smoothly then get it dominated by a game that will work for all of 30 seconds lol.  PS. I have a launch 60 gig one so I've heard I'm at the highest risk

@Emo-Mercenary, 500 million is what they made in just the first week. That doesn't include how much more they will continue to make. I think they are fine on cash.

I have a 60 gig and have encountered only a few hickups during multiplayer.

Congrats Rockstar and Take-Two only signs of great things to come.

This is pretty cool for R* but I am still disappointed in the fact that it was created with the Xbox hardware holding it back, imagine what this thing would have looked like if they had the ability to utilize blu-ray, and a hard drive. (NOTE: Not all xbox's have hard drives, so developers have to program knowing that they can't garantee the ablitiy to cache anything to one.) This is the only thing giving the PS3 version a slight edge, the fact that we cache 3gigs of data to the harddrive is probably the reason for the slight improvements noticed.

If GTA4 is getting all this cudo's and they're saying that this game "makes full use of the power of the next gen. technology", then I can't imagine how Metal Gear Solid is going to stack up! MGS4 is going to be much MUCH better.

6 million alrdy OMFG GAME IS TOTAL MASTERPIECE!!!!!!!!!!

dominationnnnnnnnnnnn

People are dumb enough to buy into the hype of this game.  Terrible controls and  the ugliest graphics of any PS3 game. Glad i only rented this hunk of mess.  If anyone believes this game controls and looks better than COD4, Devil May Cry 4, Ninja Gaiden or Oblivion(which is an open world) please raise your hand so you can have your head examine.

Great game but not sure how its using the full power on next gen consoles? Not being funny but it aint the best looking game in the world.

well smart !!! i no it really is 2 early 2 bring this up but im trying 2 think wat they cood do with the next 1 ^o) new location is all i can think of tbh :P

GTA may not be the prettiest game around but that's never stopped it from selling millions of copies because it's enjoyable to play, if you dont like it that simply your problem because you're clearly in the minority. Meanwhile the rest of us will be buying, playing and enjoying a game which wasnt bought purely on hype but rather bought based on the fact that each game before it has been a joy to play as well.

I think ppl are missing the point that Final Fantasy's have the best stories, i've played the game, story is good, but nothing like Final Fantasy level

i want tat 500 mil

@Bino4169. I respect your opinion, and I agree that FF has good stories, but I don't like how you compare mistical/fantasy games plot with crime plot. The Godfather and LotR are great movies and good stories in their respectives genres, there is no need to put togheter in the same competition as also happen with GTAIV and FFs, they are difirentes genres. I hate the competition of reducing everything In the same category.

dam straight GTA IV is the $hit!!!!
