Pretty cool, but I feel that GTA is a much better Console game.

I'm with you on that Tom. But that's probably because I didn't switch to consoles from computers more than a few months ago. But in general to me a mouse is so much more precise. but that will probably change the more you play. I can't see a controller topping a mouse though. Maybe become as good as, but not better.

There are some games that can only be played with mouse and keyboard, in my opinion. RTS just does not work on a console pad, fact; and I generally find that first-person shooters aren't as responsive either.

But then, by the same token, I couldn't imagine playing a beat 'em up on anything other than a pad/arcade layout. When I got Super Street Fighter II for PC waaaaaaay back I had to buy a controller specifically for it, because it was shit otherwise.

If I've said it once, I've said it 7-8 times: Grand Theft Auto is best when enjoyed on the PC. The fact GTAIV will feature 32-player multiplayer only supports my position.

Yup, 32 players. That's the good news. Bad news is that not every game mode supports that many - others will "only" support 16 - but you'll find ways to deal with that disappointment. Modes confirmed to support 32 players at this stage are deathmatch, GTA Race and free mode, though you'd hope/expect a couple more to be announced between now and the game's release next week.



FUCK YES only one more week
