That's quite impressive. Some brilliant minds and compression techniques to get this amount of dialogue on top of all the other content to fit on a DVD.

yep, if this game can fit on a DVD, pretty much any game could...even MGS4.

Technically it's a dual-layer DVD, but "who's counting?"

That audio interview has me drooling. I'm surprised at how much and how flexible the sound is. This game is just going to own the world!

Highly doubt it. Not with Konjima behind the wheel.

it's filled with uncompressed HD audio and textures, and probably doubling of data to lessen load times. Heavenly Sword had around 10 gigs of uncompressed audio as well. Konami could get it on 2 disks for the 360 if they really wanted to. I only brought it up because it shows great skill on Rockstar to fit this game onto what people were saying wasn't a next gen media format.

GTA has all this amazing audio work mentioned a few posts up, various character AI, a large dynamic city, a next gen physics engine, etc, and they fit it on one disk for the 360.

That is because Hideo puts more animated scenes in his games than a Pixar movie.

Re: Let's talk about... Grand Theft Auto 4

so while I wait for this game, are the two psp ports on the ps2 anything worth playing for cheap?

Re: Let's talk about... Grand Theft Auto 4

I'm starting to believe that I'll be disappointed if this isn't the greatest game I've ever played.

I'm nowhere near giddy with anticipation. It's more like an acceptance that from next Tuesday, I will play this game for a long time.

I haven't preorder, and I wont, but I know I will be picking this up. I'm sure I will score a copy before the release date.

Get this:

I rarely play my 360, and right when GTA IV is on the brink of releasing, I get the Red Ring of Death.

Called it in Friday, 3/28. Received the box on Tuesday 4/1. Sent it back on Thursday 4/3, got the fixed console back on Wednesday, 4/16. Not that bad.. and they send you a 1 month Live card.
