After seeing a leak on youtube, I was truely impressed with sound and graphics, but gameplay looks more of the same, and I have got the £60 edition.
My main complaint is the cars still look like they handle like a drunk baby driver.

Oh, here is the footage, If mods are angry, just PM me and I will hapily take it down, http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/52361

I'm actually pretty happy with more of the same gameplay, so the videos look pretty good to me. I wish the filmer could have chosen a better angle though :P

I'd never preorder a GTA game special edition. Bioware products, however...

Maybe you wasted your money on all that collectors edition bullshit, but i still think this will be one of the best games this year, and you will be playing it for many hours.

wow, that was....lame.
I thought it was meant to be using the state of the art euphoria physics engine? Not sure where that went.

Also, the "combat" (for lack of better word) Looks identical to the combat from black monday. It did look very good, but thats about all i can say about it.
(also he got hit by a car, and that seemed to do feck all, wth)

It doesn't look that bad actually. Sure, it's more of the same, but it's GTA: the same kicks ass!

I got the special edition because I'm a sucker for the shiny cases they come in, and I don't regret pre-ordering the game. Some of you guys can be disappointed if you want, but I'm still going to have a blast this Tuesday.

Anyone that seriously expected anything different at all out of GTA4 is clearly living in denial.

EDIT: HAHAHA OH WOW, Is that song playing during the driving part of the game's music? Oh lord, I actually have the music video for that song on my PC.

Yeah, a PAL prerelease for the Xbox360. was leaked on Demonoid. Prerelease piracy is one thing I dislike...

WELL.... The video didn't really show off any of the new features that I'm looking forward to in GTA4. Like the way you can call the police. Or the new GoW style combat system. Or the fact that you can enter comedy clubs and listen to routines by Paxton Fettel... The guy is completely wasting the opportunity to show us any of the new features that make the game more interesting than it's predecessors.

Plus the main reason that I really want to play GTA4 is it's going to be the most polished version of one of the best games ever made. I'm still expecting the world from GTA4, I just wish this idiot could of showed us something a bit more interesting. The way it's been shot, the only reason he's released this video is to go "Hey guys! I'm playing GTA4!!!! And it's not out until TUESDAY! You guys have to wait a whole 5 MORE DAYS until you can play it! YOU SUCK AND I ROCK! etc etc.

Knob that he probably is.

EDIT: Paxten Fettel?!? I haven't even played FEAR for months! Um, anyway, I meant Patton Oswalt. I'm not changing it, because it's wierd and interesting.

*looks perplexed at the comments about it 'being the same'* Well, yeah...its GTA... I figured, somehow, they would keep the core mechanics the same, aside from tightening them up alot. And as Strafe McGee says, the newer features and improvements aren't shown.

Plus, even if there were no improvements aside from the graphics, I'd buy it - GTA 3, VC, and SA were all great, entertaining games, with huge bags of fun, and the new location should add more 'life' to the city and NPCs. The only problem with GTA 3 was its 'loose' controls (on the PC at least, dunno about the Xbox, etc) and its horroribly dated graphics. Storyline, characters, wide and varied environments packed full of detail, and the 'freedom' factor of GTA made them good. So long as they have these basics down, I'm sure the game will be great fun.

And you're extolling the virtues of a game you haven't played.
