Can't wait till GTA 4 comes out.  Why the hell do they keep postponing the release date?

It's such a big game you can sort of understand it I'd prefer a complete game than a rushed one, every Gran Turismo game is always delayed by at least 6 month , look at the PSP version, it's been delayed for about 2 years now.

Legendary game that. Was made by the BitMap Brothers if my memory serves me correct. Those were the good days.

It's not been delayed since last year. It was meant to come out in October 07, but got pushed to April (I think). Another 5 weeks left or there abouts. Not long now.

I hope that they finally fix all the problems this time around so I can finally get it.  I'm not a big fan of video games, but I just love GTA.  This is going to be the greatest game of all time.

I've heard that there will be 4 new CoD4 maps are available for download tomorrow.
1. There's a map based around the level in the game with the television studio.
2. "Creek" - set in the countyside  with cliff, caves and mountains. Apparently quite big.
3. "Chinatown" - nothing to do with any gaming level, and set in...erm....Chinatown.
4. "Killhouse" - from what I can gather, this map will be set around the training complex that kicks off the actual game.

I dunno about you lot, but I can't fecking wait.

I was watching a video on gametrailers.com where they had footage of Chinatown, they had a developer who said it's a direct port of Carentan but with different buildings, so basically the same layout, he said that they had listened to players and they wanted Carentan back so they did that but with a twist.

I loved Carentan from COD2, can't wait  :bowdown  :buttrock

The video is here:

The first map in the pack is called 'Broadcast' - like you said neil, based heavily on the campaign level 'Charlie don't Surf'.

The new maps look great.
