Grand Theft Auto IV

[Village Idiot]

Re: **The Official Grand Theft Auto 4 Thread**

Six complaints:

1. Not enough clothes, and where are my accessories? One pair of shades in the whole game? Hats? Jewelry?

2. Now that I have a crapload of money, what is there to buy? Not that I was into buying safehouses, but shouldn't there be something more to this game in terms of what we can spend our money on?

3. No customizing cars?

4. Where's the difficulty level? There's nothing wrong with the game's tendency to be very forgiving, but it would be nice if more of the car crashes were fatal, for example, and if it took fewer shots to kill you. (And I love the idea someone else mentioned about having an option to turn on traffic law enforcement.)

5. Some more The Sims aspects would be great: Niko should have to sleep, bathe and go to the bathroom. Also, gas stations should be fully functional: some cars you get will have more or less gasoline, and thus some will require fueling.

6. The game is Grand Theft Auto. Doesn't it make sense that we should always be able to take any car we want and get money for it? I know there's the mission string with Brucie, but I mean just a general "chop shop" that we can take any car to. Doesn't that seem like something really obvious that's been missing from this series? (But I guess since there's nothing to spend money on anyway, it doesn't matter.)

Oh, and while I'm here: this is best game I've ever played. Anyone else thinking on that level?

So I show up to take a random chick from Lovemeet out on a date..

I show up in my Lambo and what is the first thing she says? "Your car...you must be really struggling."

I wanted to get out and kill her.

Well, I didn't kill her because I a) didn't want to shoot my car and b) wanted to go out on the date.

Only...she didn't like the date at all, so now I wish I had killed her.

That is who I'm dating as well. Every time I show up she is always like you spending money on cars instead of gifts on Carmen. Only if she knew the truth about how those cars were obtained.

Actually, I believe it was Kiki.

I have a date with Carmen planned for "tomorrow." I'm going to show up in a cab.

Can you only date 1 girl at a time (and get bonuses?)?

I hope so. I have one now and I sent a request or whatever to that lawyer chick bk mentioned but she hasn't replied yet.

Has anybody tried taking a date to the car wash in a convertible?

Just wondering if anything funny happened.

1. Not a big deal to me, but the more options the better I suppose.

2. I agree. Let me bribe cops in an area to leave me alone for a certain amount of time or do something with all that money.

3. Not a big deal to me but I'm not against it.

4. Yes.

5. Bathe, sleep, bathroom? No thanks, I don't want to babysit Niko. Cars that run out of gas? Yes, thank you.

6. Yes. Game needs more general areas of criminal activity separate from the missions. Let me get a group together to take out and steal an armored car full of cash, rob places, crime bosses that want someone killed, ability to bet on pool/bowling/darts, and last but not least a generic chop shop like you said.
