Thoughts on the GTA IV Trailer

For those of you who still don’t know, first GTA IV(Grand Theft Auto 4) trailer was released yesterday during the night by Rockstar Games. I only got around to watching it earlier today, and have since then re-watched it a few times, just to make sure I didn’t miss anything.

So what’s new in store for us? Quite a lot actually. The trailer is not pre-rendered, that is indeed how good the RAGE engine looks like under 720p on a next generation console(xbox 360/playstation 3). A great improvement over the old RenderWare engines.

It looks like the game will take place in Liberty City as well, with the possibility of there being multiple cities. Another cool thing I suppose is the introduction of Russians/Eastern Europeans into the mix, and even possibly, the main character being one himself, but this can’t really be confirmed or denied by just this trailer.

Overall I must say that I’m quite impressed, even if the trailer is quite short and doesn’t show any action. The question though is, should we get a next generation console or wait till it comes out for the PC. But if history is anything to go by, we could end up waiting a year or longer till it finally arrives on the PC.
