Well as the hype mule (I would say train but it really doesn't feel like a train) starts I came across this from 1up. They have apparently had a bit of a quickie on GTA 4 mp for the PC :-

http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3171505

Nothing earth shatteringly new, obviously mentioned that it has 32 players instead of 16. They also seem to be of the opinion that the mouse and keyboard improves MP (well what a shock eh boys and girls). All in all an interesting read if you are board and want some more information. There is also eight new screenshots there, well I haven't seen them :-

thanks for that.
it indeeds adds nothing new but it's nice to see there might be an even more packed matches.
not that it seems like GTA IV on the consoles was a bore but i like the adition.

maybe if there are so many players on board than the blips can be dropped and we can still always find someone to cap.

The blood textures on the face are new, and the lighting in the police sirens are miles better then the console versions.

Thanks for the heads up CC icon14.gif .

Yay this makes me happy. "Even before jumping in, we noticed that the developers added a custom match browser, where you can search for an online session that fulfills specific criteria (gameplay mode, number of players, and so forth)."

Sad thing about this is that "WE" (family/friends) are buying GTA IV to PLAY TOGETHER ONLINE and NOT with some random person...
I HOPE there is some type of "password" or some way we can play together online...
NOT, NOT like Left 4 Dead crap...

<will set up a dedicated fm destruction derby & stunt server biggrin.gif
Hopefully we will be able to label the servers and have ban options.

If so, free mode is going to be 10x more fun on the pc.

You sir, is right. I think there will be NONE! wow.gif. Games For Windows Live host their own servers. That means, we'll have to reverse-engineer the whole thing and host our own Live-Servers with a bit of client-cracking in order to host our own worlds. Let's leave that up to MTA:IV's team.
