Popular Post Kazduin Posted June 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2021 I love this game and I haven’t played it since 2012 so I ordered the complete edition to fire it up on PS3 again once I have all the 3D era plats but man I wish awesome games like this and Metal Gear Solid 4 weren’t getting left behind on PS3. The ten year anniversary came and went and this game got no love from Rockstar accept them removing some songs the licensing expired on. I love Grand Theft Auto V and played it on two generations of consoles and got the platinum on one of them but god damn I’m so sick of everything in that game. The map is stale and after playing through the 3D era games again I noticed something. GTA V is not much fun to just goof off in. In GTA IV I would purposely get into accidents because it was fun and intriguing with the awesome car damage and euphoria physics. In GTA V in a lot of ways it was a disappointment for me that they so dramatically scaled back the physics and car damage. What made GTA IV and it’s multiplayer fun seemingly isn’t there for me. I remember getting into shenanigans with randoms at the airport and hitting jumps for hours because it was fun and goofy or trying to fly a full helicopter as long as I could with the tail ripped off. Don’t get me wrong, GTA V has a lot of strengths and is better in different areas but I feel overall the core gameplay in GTA IV was more fun and rewarding and more reminiscent of the 3D era where you would crash into stuff and mess around for fun. TL;DR: GTA IV would do well if it was brought forward to the newer consoles and I’m sick of GTA V and Shark Cards 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seblegamer Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Yeah ... i'm not against a GTA 4 remastered ... but .. you know ... i'm more for a GTA 6 ^^ GTA 5 is out since 2013 on PS3, we got a PS4 version, now a PS5 version is coming ... ok cool ! But 10 years between 2 new games is too much >.< So stop giving us a better version of old games, and please make new ones more often as it used to be on PS1/PS2 ^^ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraniteSnake Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 GTAIV was such a brilliant game. It’s my second favourite in the series after San Andreas. Three Leaf Clover is probably my favourite mission out of the entire series! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They gave all the other GTA games as well as L.A Noire releases in some form on PS4 and Rockstar is massive. If they released the game with it’s DLCs and cut the multiplayer and prettied it up a little it would sell like hotcakes. GTA IV was fun and one of my favorite games but it ran like hot garbage on the PS3 and 360 and the PC port was abysmal. The game running at 60 fps upscaled and possibly prettied up would be great. The Series X runs the game at 60 fps through backwards compatibility and it makes me jealous 8 minutes ago, GraniteSnake said: GTAIV was such a brilliant game.

I overall just loved the characters more and thought the story was great. I thought the trio was brilliant for the DLCs and it was cool how they incorporated all that together. I know the story and driving mechanics are polarizing to some but from someone who played these games throughout my childhood and watched the series evolve I felt like the direction GTA IV took was natural. The first time I saw that game my jaw dropped because I was still playing San Andreas. Truly the generational leap from PS2 to PS3 will never be felt again. Also the physics I love them so much!

saiyanbloodstyle Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 I really want a remaster for this game as it's my favourite. I actually want Rockstar to make new games but GTA 4 is an exception as that is the best game they've ever made, remember take-two did say more remasters of older games are coming and they wanted newer fans to experience it so hopefully that's a hint? Still strange nothing was said for the 10th anniversary, take-two and Rockstar really should acknowledge this master piece more and push it out to more people to enjoy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreakon13 Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) For whatever reason, I played through GTAIV probably a dozen times over the years. I guess I enjoyed it a lot. I'd definitely be interested in a remastered playthrough for old times sake, I think the game is a bit rough around the edges performance-wise on the PS3 (and most other platforms). A game that'd really benefit from the boost, good candidate for a remaster. EDIT: Seeing as how the game didn't really run great on any platform (including a very dicey PC port)... I wonder if it's just a bit too much work for Rockstar to invest in fixing it up. 4K and 60fps with improved bells and whistles would probably be the expectation for a PS3 gen game.

Gta 5 seemed ages after gta 4 but i cant see a gta 6 for another 5 to 10 years (maybe backend of the ps5 era), which is sad to say.

There was that leaked Amazon listing for GTA IV Complete Edition but everyone is saying it’s most likely fake. There is also the former-Rockstar developer who put screenshots of a remastered/updated Liberty City on his Linked-In profile as an example of his work and then quickly removed them when game journalists and others started pointing it out. Unfortunately people think they just ported Liberty City to GTA Online but I hope they’re wrong. 5 hours ago, dannyswfc9 said: I miss the ps2 days of a gta every fews years.

I just platinumed GTA III and I’m doing Vice City right now. I think the trilogy for PS4 is on sale still. I picked it up cheap!

Yes I agree the driving could be difficult at times for sure as well as the shooting but once you got used to driving you could do some wacky stunts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willmill97 Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 I would do anything for a remaster of this, but with GTAV's driving physics. Pleaseeeee rockstar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun1094 Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 It’s nice to see some appreciation for GTA IV as I thought I was part of a minority of people that actually loved the game. I thought it was perfect (apart from the driving physics) and would definitely love a remaster 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninjise Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) I definitely wouldn't mind a GTA IV remaster, that game was so much fun back then. Chances are if they ever release it one day, it will be a PS3 half assed port, like how the rest of the older Rockstar games have been so far.

Rias Gremory Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 I want Bully 2 and/or LA Noire part II on PS4 and PS5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 one of the best gta's ever made, with an epic storyline and extremely immersive atmosphere and a memorable multiplayer. i played thousands of hours in my teens, if this game ever comes to next-gen a multiplayer should be implemented for sure, otherwise it would be a waste without one. I don't remember the driving mechanics being as bad or difficult as people say, I loved online racing and free mode madness. I've recently seen a trending on Youtube, as a tribute. and many people still play online through alternative platforms and websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dakk55 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 It would nice if Rockstar ported the story part of the Main + DLC's to the PS5 without the excessive online trophies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conor Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 I'd like a remaster too, 60fps 4K without online trophies. Same with GTA V but that's not gonna happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosstristan Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 I recently purchased it and 100%'ed it on PS3, last time I had played it was back in 2010 I think, on PC. It was such a good experience to play this masterpiece 11 years after I first played it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be happy to know then, that take-two (rockstar parent company) has 6 remasters planned for sometime in the next two years. Very good chance of some of those being red dead redemption, gta4, and/or a gta trilogy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffboy289 Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 This Game needs a re-release. It‘s really about time to do it! Instead we get another GTA Trilogy version.. With removing the Multiplayer, the platinum would become to easy imo and almost everyone would have it. Also the Multiplayer was like 40% of the GTA 4 experience on the PS3. I really hope, if it‘s coming one Day, that the Multiplayer part will be in it. They removed it on the PC version, i hope they won‘t do it on a re-release. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
running_Amok_86 Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Although GTA4 was not my favourite, I did enjoy it and would buy it again if they remastered it. Also I would love to see a MGS4 remaster, I missed that as I was on xbox 360 for that gen, so would love to play that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willmill97 Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) Stevie Nicks - Edge of Seventeen came on the radio at work earlier and I've just realised how absolutely desperate I am for a remaster/remake of this game.
