Holy shit that "Meet Niko" trailer was awesome! I am getting way pumped for this to come out. And IGN gave it a Perfect 10 today! :O

The final trailer did more to excite me. This was good, but that was great. The Mavado remix made it.

It's disappointing to know that no other reviews will be out until after the game releases. I do not doubt the game will satisfy, but its always shady to see embargos like this.

If the game is truly great, let me hear about it from a number of different sources. I won't hesitate because of a few 9.5's, Rockstar. More reviews means more perspectives and more information. IGN's review didn't mention side missions in any detail.

I think I'll try to finish Heavenly Sword this weekend. That, along with Gran Turismo and the Metal Gear Online beta, should preoccupy me as well as anything else until Monday night.

Hahaha, my brother was going to buy it no matter what I said. I should've gone with his deal but I decided to chip in half. Now I get GTA4 goodness for half the price!

Yeah but.. he got Super Smash Bros Melee all to himself when it came out. I don't want that to happen again.

Because I know you guys won't all be insulted when I say this:

I think 10s should be reserved for games that innovate a lot and are perfectly executed.

When I look at GTA IV, I wonder what's new. Multiplayer, what else? (Edit: ok, a friend just told me about the amazing detail of this game. That's cool, but it's still an evolution of what they did in the previous GTA games, imo)
I see the graphics and think "decent, I'd give it an 8 or 9."

Thoughts?
