^,^^basically
if you want to keep a game you rent, you pay for it (at a discounted price) and they mail you the box and manual (games are usually sent in sleeves inside cardboard)
I put it at the top of my game queue a few days ago and took out every other game so they shipped it yesterday...I have the option to buy it for $44.95...course I think for most members its like $49.95 or something but I've been there for over 6 months 4/29/2008 5:40:40 PM |

I got it and played from 12:30-9:00 am. I got through about 12% of the game and got to play some multiplayer. I highly recommend 8 on 8 Cops n Crooks. That shit can get crazy. If you start out in a car with a driver who sucks you're fucked though. I haven't had any graphics issues (on the 360) even though I was expecting a few to pop up. A few lag issues in multiplayer in one game. The game is really fun though. Driving takes a while to get used to but it's more realistic cuz you have to brake before the turns which I think is a good thing. Anyway, the game is really fun so far and I haven't really even gotten into it yet.
Also, I'm like 95% sure I was directly behind Golovko in the line at Gamestop. 4/29/2008 6:30:51 PM |

Quote : | "Midnight GTAIV sales see stabbing, mugging Police say one man apparently waiting in line attacked a passerby, while a teenager elsewhere was beaten up for his copy of the game. By Brendan Sinclair, GameSpot Posted Apr 29, 2008 11:03 am PT
Midnight launches aren't always the gaming industry's proudest moments. The PlayStation 3 release in particular was riddled with launch-related crimes, including a mugging, a store robbery, a launch line hold-up, and a shooting.
Grand Theft Auto IV went on sale in stores around the world at 12:01 a.m. this morning, and already reports of criminal midnight launch madness are starting to filter in. BBC News is reporting on a pair of incidents, with news of a stabbing outside a Gamestation in Croydon and a mugging by another game store in Lancashire.
According to the news service, a 23-year-old man was attacked by a knife-wielding assailant as he passed a line outside the Gamestation. The victim was treated for several stab wounds and has since been released. The attacker, who police said appeared to be waiting in the line of about 50 to 100 people, was not apprehended.
In the mugging, an 18-year-old was robbed of his copy of the game and beaten as he walked home from the store with a friend. The victim was taken to the hospital with a broken jaw and a broken nose.
Police are asking for witnesses in both cases to step forward. " |

when it tells you to do that, it marks a spot on your map

This is awesome. You do get a gun pretty early on. Although I couldn't understand a fucking word of what that jamaican dude was telling me to do, thank god the game gives the short version of the objective. Bowling was kinda gay but I thought pool was pretty well done. Love the shooting, feels as good as any decent 3rd person shooter.
