i dunno i do miss the tow trucks. I liked linking ten of those suckers together and making my own choo choo. ALL ABOARD! And wtf, I want to hijack a train... WHY CAN'T I? I want to make it go too fast and de-rail. Awesome.

I must admit that the one thing I miss is jackin' the train. But hey I'm over it.

please guys dont be so quick to talk negative, and people the delay of the game wasnt due to cutting corners or rushing they started making the game exclusively for xbox 360. They got their hands on the 360 first, or developer kits if anyone wants to get technical, and got a headstart on the 360 version. Sony didnt want the game to be exclusively on xbox because first they had contracts with Rstar but not only that if it was exclusively on xbox it would've destroyed the ps3 with sales. I dont know if its true but i think its pretty damn close but why the hell did rockstar release table tennis? because it used the real world physics engine and they were pretty much testing to see if it worked and it did. Don't blame rockstar for cutting corners blame the the sony version. They had to port it to the ps3 witch made the game crash and freeze and they had to start working out the glitches, and since sony didnt want the xbox version that was already done on october 16 to be released first they told rockstar to delay both until they can be released together. search it. oh and all of the real GTA fans should know that Rockstar isnt going to let us down with the DLC it may only add 10 hours of storyline game-play..... but thats only storyline game-play they may add all kinds of sh*t to do unrelated to the story like adding guns and vehicles like the monster truck and all sorts of other stuff....oh and please know that this is the rebirth of GTA on nexgen consoles so they started it kinda like GTA3.....In GTA 3 you werent able to do as much as in SA right? well think that concept but in better graphics and a nexgen console and you have GTAIV! and then think 2 episodic DLC? just like GTA3s "sequels" GTAVC and GTASA i dont know if im on to something but....i think i am. oh and sorry for the errors im just typing my mind.

I must admit I prefer III over San Andreas, for various reasons but mainly it's simplicity. Less sometimes can mean more and III brought more to the table than San Andreas did IMO. As Jack Dee once said for John Smiths "no gimmicks, no jokes and no penguins".

Wow! way to bump a 2 year old topic.

Well GTA 5 is coming out soon and its using the same engine as GTAIV, so I guess we will see these things, (you know like what they did with CODMW2 and CODMW3).
CAN'T WAIT!!!
And someone got the trailer thing to work but he hasn't released it yet, but here's a youtube link of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-qFVNJi3i4...n_order&list=UL

But tell me what other things would you like to see in GTAV?

QUOTE (LittleJacobRESPECT @ May 18 2008, 12:55) you can't. The forks of the forklifts also can't be moved. the game was rushed if you ask me. I agree. This game was totally rushed because we can no longer pointlessly drive around trucks with trailers or use the forks on a forklift. Because we all know this would add countless hours of gameplay. "Hey! Hey Ma! Lookie here at these forky thingies. Dey move up and down!"

yeh, rem SA? the forklift mission pinching crates and putting on back of truck whilst troops shot at you, then the missions/money making for nabbing containers with articulated lorries. all good stuff that filled out the game. i played GTASA twice for this reason. once on PS2 and and twice on PC, 2nd time was heavily modded.
i get the feeling GTAIV was rushed but that's the nature of the industry, i guess.

but, on the plus side, we have LatD and BoGT, only drawback is we have to pay for them!!

i still feel GTAIV is great because the chararcter of niko is just about as human as carl johnson and that bond you get with your game avatar is all part of the process of enjoying a sandbox style game. i mean, i can really relate to the main characters from both GTASA and GTAIV from my days in my early 20s as the older brother of 2 and often chasing around liverpool backstreets and alleyways on motorbikes, pillion, or in minis racing thru woodland and failed social projects [ie, massive, empty council estates, groups of abandoned 20 storey towerblocks] at night with cops everywhere, or sneaking into the docks, dodging security, to get up to no good. ahh, the crazy things you do when you're a kid in a world of mass unemployment.
obviously, i'm not talking about me personally. ahem.

but, even tho GTAIV was rushed, it was still a great game.

To all the negative nancies in this thread: calm down. when I see you insult people who point out a missed feature you don't use and you flame them, I read it as "STOP LIKING THINGS I DON'T LIKE" grow up, same goes for everyone else.

Back on Topic, Hooking trailers up to big rigs was entertaining, When I first started playing gta 4, and found a big rig in front of a gas tank trailer, first thing I thought was running it full speed then jackknifing it into heavy traffic, but I couldn't hitch them up.

Later found a forklift, and remembered spending hours tipping vehicles and things over for fun. I was disappointed to find I couldn't raise or lower the forks. (Piercing car doors and windows, anyone? flattening cars with a large industrial/shipping for lift?)

I would also spend hours towing stuff around highways, and towing cars with people in them as they would flip or yell as you dragged them where you wanted.

let them fishtail and fling the trailer/towed car behind me into traffic/pedestrians, would have been great fun with GTA4's physics.
