This guy's finished it:
http://www.gamesradar.com/f/hes-finished-g...040412432960029 QUOTE light years ahead of past GTAs. Overall, it's a stratospheric leap forward, beyond anything I'd imagined.

i think the moddin of the game is what makes these sooooo awesome for me.
of course i game on my pc instead of a console, but being able to add your own cars, and change pretty much anything you wish always makes a game fun. imo vice city is my favorite simply due to how its modded on my computer. when i play it on a console, it sucks! cars are slow, weapons arent fun, cops are stupid im deff gonna get it, and legit get it too =) -------------------- you know why they put sheep at the edge of a cliff.... that way they push back!

i preordered the special edition from amazon.com. no tax, free shipping, plus they are the only ones ive found to add the liberty city license plate on top of the included metal safe deposit box and duffle bag =p (best buy offers a lame poster)
sigh....i have no life. lol ps. those looking for $10 off, check out radio shack and circuit city. they are offering a gift card with any version of the game. --------------------  |

So I picked this game up. I wasn't going to, but after the great reviews I did.
Well, the game has already froze up on me twice. I can't believe it. This is the PS3 version which people are saying looks better, but to have the game freeze twice in less than an hour is totally unacceptable. I'm probably going to bring it back and get another. If that doesn't help, I'm returning it permanently. Update: Doing some research, I found that it is suggested that all game data is deleted and reinstalled. When you start the game it installs about 3000+mb of game data before you play, takes a few mins to load it up. We'll see if this fixes it. Update: It didn't. 3 lockups within 45minutes.

^^ that sucks....ive played mine for 3 hours straight with no freezing. all i can say is awesome graphics. there is a learning curve if your used to the old gta series. definitely not your usual "steal car, beat up people, shoot people" game anymore. not to mention you can go online and roam around the city and mingle and/or shoot other online people. on top of the extracurricular pool, you can play darts, go bowling, visit comedy clubs and strip clubs.

I've played about 10 hours on this already and it hasn't frozen once, nothing.
It is the best game i've ever played. Is your PS3 well ventilated? Sounds like overheating to me. Are the fans working ok? -------------------- |

My PS3 is fine. I've never had these problems with any other game. I'm not the only one, if you google GTA4 freezing you'll find a lot of forum posts regarding the issue. Mostly with 60gig PS3s, but I have a 40gig. It's also not limited to PS3, some 360 owners are reporting the problem also, but not nearly to the extent of PS3.
One rumor was that Gamestop got a bunch of bad discs, and this is where I purchased mine, so I will be returning it and buying from a different vendor. If this solves the problem, then maybe it is a bad batch. I'm just pissed that at first I wasn't even going to buy it, then with the exellent reviews I was like ok why not, and then it's just locking up my PS3.

That's rough.
There's not much here in the UK about freezing, so that back's up the faulty batch theory, fingers crossed. (Although there have been a couple )

Yeah it's rough! Everyones like this is the greatest game, it's so awesome. I can't play 10mins. worth of it to find out!
From what I've been reading it's been randomly happening to every type of PS3 but mostly 20 & 60 gigs. This doesn't help since I have a 40. It's not just one chain of stores, it's worldwide, it's both consoles. This post has been edited by Supersprynt: Apr 30, 2008 - 10:25 AM -------------------- |

I waited an hour in front of the mall until they let us in, after the wait though, I had the game w/ in 10 min . When I left there was still a huge line out the door, around the corner, outside the mall doors and around another corner lol. Such an awesome game! I agree, the controls take some getting used to too in this one.-------------------- "A true car enthusiast can see the potential in any car"

Rockstar is watching joooo  (sorry) To make you feel better, it seems to be wiping out the last of the XBoxes http://forums.xbox.com/20022399/ShowPost.aspx This post has been edited by manphibian: Apr 30, 2008 - 10:33 AM -------------------- |

Update: I disabled my WiFi on the PS3 and now I have been playing for 3 hrs problem free. Seems something is up with connecting to the PSN.

I think Rockstar just didn't get rid of ALL the bugs they should have b/c mine froze up earlier today as I was only 1.5 hours into playing it on my 360, but 3 hours yeasterday morning and 3 at night, it had no problem at all..I really hope my copy isn't defective

I don't think it's an answer to everyone. I will turn it on tomorrow and try playing again, see what happens. If it locks up again, I'm going to have to conclude that there's something wrong with the PSN talking to the game.
But for now, I can actually play the game. It's pretty good so far. -------------------- |
