- neferiousrich, on 05/02/2008, -16/+150streetview would be scary....
- bullcutter, on 05/02/2008, -5/+135scary AWESOME, you mean
- Farik, on 05/02/2008, -0/+80Or you could just play the game!
- mhuggins, on 05/02/2008, -0/+29That's like telling people to step outside instead of using Google's street view.
- CrunchyDeluxe, on 05/02/2008, -4/+1Equating playing video games with going outside? Then why obesity???
- shodanx, on 05/02/2008, -6/+1yeah in 6 months when we can finally play it
- adventchild08, on 05/03/2008, -1/+8Who is we? I have been playing it nonstop...
Do you assume that Digg is a community of people in your country of origin? - djbon2112, on 05/03/2008, -0/+9I think he's referring to us PC gamers who are stuck without the game until they decide to release it. I don't own a 360 or a PS3 and I'm not buying either one for a single game.

- noseeme, on 05/02/2008, -17/+7I've always wanted to see the StreetView car in a city, and follow it on foot, and gesture at it. (yes, I really am that cool)
- garageboy101, on 05/02/2008, -2/+7Judging from the diggs on your comment you aren't :]
- yayintertubes, on 05/02/2008, -2/+1No, you are deeply uncool.
- Rammy912, on 05/02/2008, -1/+1as are you my friend.
- rpgmaker, on 05/02/2008, -33/+1Can someone upload a torrent with the .iso image of GTAIII for PS2? I can't find any and I wanna get started with the GTA series...
- Bananas21ca, on 05/02/2008, -2/+1Learn to Google
- scottnash, on 05/02/2008, -0/+19Dude, spend the $9.99, it's worth it: http://www.amazon.com/Rockstar-Games-Grand-Theft-A ...
- deviantsteve, on 05/02/2008, -0/+6You sir are a tool
- max420, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5Yeah, just buy the game....
- yayintertubes, on 05/02/2008, -1/+4Yeah, buy the game you tool.
- Thorpe, on 05/02/2008, -0/+8I wouldn't be surprised if someone did that (if you can do that with the API).
- wibambau, on 05/02/2008, -0/+4Seems that the game = playable street view.
- pox05, on 05/02/2008, -0/+1i agree, street view might get you in trouble w/ rstar
- TonySki, on 05/02/2008, -1/+1that would be quite awesome, cops and shootouts all over the place. For more awesome a dude would pull the driver out of the van and then the street view would have cops behind it and going in zigzags.
- grambones, on 05/03/2008, -0/+5hey i know this is a random place for this but if anyone wants a 1 month trial to x-box live gold here is a code. CVRVW-PBQHX-R2RK6-PH9J6-WBXV6
I just couldn't throw it out till I did something with the code.- mikeazorin, on 05/03/2008, -0/+1fudge someone took it before me...
- killbert24, on 05/02/2008, -19/+2Wow that is really cool! It looks so tiny from way up here.
- AustinGoodchild, on 05/02/2008, -11/+2are you a rockstar employee by any chance?
- AUZeus, on 05/02/2008, -1/+37That's what she said.
- alukima, on 05/02/2008, -41/+4I thought this was another "fad shock" game. But after seeing all these articles about it I am going to at least rent it.
- surKaz, on 05/02/2008, -13/+1good guess,... try it.. It might be a little.. uh... 'mature' but most people know what this game is about anyway( if somewhat skewed)..
- Ganja420, on 05/02/2008, -5/+24How have u never played Grand Theft Auto???
- surKaz, on 05/02/2008, -2/+9I know.. and I couldn't believe it either.. and alukima doesn't even seem to know enough about the game (from news etc..) to know that it isn't a "fad shock" game..
- Ganja420, on 05/02/2008, -1/+5The series began in 1997 and currently has eight stand-alone games and two expansion packs for the original. Film veterans such as Michael Madsen, Burt Reynolds, Dennis Hopper, Samuel L. Jackson, Chris Penn, James Woods, Joe Pantoliano, Frank Vincent, Robert Loggia and Ray Liotta have all voiced major characters in many installments in the series. The name of the series and its games are derived from grand theft auto, a term referring to motor vehicle theft. By September 26, 2007, the Grand Theft Auto series had sold over 65 million units; as of March 26, 2008, the franchise has sold over 70 million copies worldwide according to Take-Two Interactive.
- surKaz, on 05/02/2008, -9/+1Dude.. I know about the game.. I have played the previous GTA games and am currently going thru GTA4...
Thanks tho.

- walugi, on 05/02/2008, -5/+4YOU ***** SUCK!!!
- celkin, on 05/03/2008, -0/+4YOU SUCKING *****...and I don't like you.
- magicjames92, on 05/02/2008, -24/+4I'm pretty sure this is a dupe, I remember seeing it here earlier.
- nickerbocker, on 05/02/2008, -1/+17It may be a dupe but anything from MrBabyMan is always original according to Digg users.
- avonwodahs, on 05/02/2008, -0/+3LALALA! I can not hear you.
- lalolost, on 05/02/2008, -10/+1Now time to see how long it takes to get from here to there in liberty city.
- soundsofreason, on 05/02/2008, -3/+147Before long, those green "start" icons are going to cover that map like herpes on a hooker.
- demiurgency, on 05/02/2008, -5/+3Did anyone find a way to remove those? They're really annoying. I don't see an option to show/hide the start icons. :-(
Otherwise, great map!- Deranged, on 05/02/2008, -0/+9yeah. it's a checkbox under missions
- B3000, on 05/02/2008, -1/+2If you didn't see the option to hide/show all the different icons, all you are left with is a scan of the map that comes with the game.
- mhuggins, on 05/02/2008, -0/+8And BOY, I know my herpes when it comes to hookers!
- seeyounorth, on 05/02/2008, -0/+9Just kill it and take its money
- CrunchyDeluxe, on 05/02/2008, -4/+1What? The hooker or the herpes?
- demiurgency, on 05/02/2008, -5/+3Did anyone find a way to remove those? They're really annoying. I don't see an option to show/hide the start icons. :-(
- surKaz, on 05/02/2008, -3/+5This thing is going to be soooo full... and It's going to be awesome!.
- x0mb13, on 05/02/2008, -1/+1or unusable
- over900000, on 05/02/2008, -76/+11I feel like the GTA isn’t pushing the Playstation 3 hardware enough in many aspects, which is no doubt the result of the inferior Xbox 360 holding back the system. Because Rockstar developed the title with the Xbox 360 in mind, they had to make sure not to be overly ambitious with their project, and this clearly shows as the game isn’t anywhere near the best looking title on the PS3 (though, it certainly is on the Xbox 360). One particular aspect of the game that i enjoyed is the image quality: anti-aliasing is present with the added bonus of advanced Depth of Field effects. Indeed, SDF unanimously agrees that the Playstation 3 version has a subtle, soft warmth to it that is preferred over the vastly inferior Xbox 360 version.
Worse is the fact that the title doesn’t boast of 7.1 lossless uncompressed audio that Playstation 3 fans are accustom to. Again, this is unheard of on Xbox 360 games, and it is my belief that Rockstar made compromises in order to fit the game on the vastly inferior Xbox 360 DVD release.
Multiplayer is an absolute blast. The Playstation Network offers dedicated gamespy servers at no additional cost to the PS3 consumer. I had no problem setting up a game in Liberty City’s humongous world with up to 16 people with no lag or downtime whatsoever. It’s simply amazing that I can experience such a superior service with no additional cost. The free multiplayer in Grand Theft Auto 4 (PS3) is so good that I wish I could give Sony some money for their amazing efforts.
Enjoy your pay for p2p networking boys(napster=win)lol.- soundsofreason, on 05/02/2008, -5/+15Oh get over it and enjoy the game Mr. Poopy Pants.
- ErikHarrison, on 05/02/2008, -6/+31It's hardly the best game visually for 360. CoD 4 has much better graphics.
- noseeme, on 05/02/2008, -13/+4And COD4's graphics suck! Even Oblivion, a launch title, looks better than it.
- samury, on 05/02/2008, -0/+8Get a better TV.
- noseeme, on 05/02/2008, -2/+1Is a 42" 1080p LCD with the Xbox over HDMI good enough for you?
- PARAPA, on 05/03/2008, -0/+2No
- samury, on 05/02/2008, -0/+8Get a better TV.
- BearinG, on 05/05/2008, -0/+1GTA has always had crappier graphics than any CURRENT games.. but its always still incredible how it runs with everything going on at one time.. I was surprised at how well multiplayer was with 16 players also..
It is definitely way better looking than the previous games.. I mean, compare apples with apples here...
- noseeme, on 05/02/2008, -13/+4And COD4's graphics suck! Even Oblivion, a launch title, looks better than it.
- Marglar, on 05/02/2008, -6/+14burried for having a rediculously stupid and overplayed name. I'd bury you a 2nd time for being a fanboy of a specific system, if I could. just accept that there are pros and cons to each, and quit trying to toot ps3's horn as if its vastly superior, buttpuppet.
- Farik, on 05/02/2008, -5/+7Then why is it the PS3 version could not do 720p and is stuck at 620p? And why is it the performance, in some respects, is better on Xbox?
- saunders45, on 05/02/2008, -4/+15Wait... Wait... Wait... So you actually believe what you typed? Now that's funny.
- pigducksheep, on 05/02/2008, -3/+15that was kind of obnoxious..
- mlvassallo, on 05/02/2008, -3/+14Isn't it sad that you typed all of that out just to have it buried? Go enjoy the game and stop playing with your e-penis.
- Moojuice, on 05/02/2008, -5/+12buried for being a blatant fanboy. Overuse of the word 'inferior' and for posting what is just a advertising spiel for the game. Maybe if Sony didnt make it so hard to program for the PS3 more cross platform games would be developed on the it and maybe then R* would not have jumped off the Sony exclusivity ship.
- freshyill, on 05/02/2008, -3/+5Whine, whine, whine.
- getbusyliving, on 05/02/2008, -18/+3Well said! PS3 for the win!
- aelias, on 05/02/2008, -9/+161. There are still framerate drops in the PS3 version.
2. No DLC for when you're done finding every single thing.
3. All audio is compressed for obvious reasons. There would be 9-10GB of just music alone, not to mention all the recorded dialogue.
4. No rumble support? What year is it again?
5. A dev team of over a thousand people and a hundred million dollar budget not ambitious enough for you?
Go back to your troll cave. Thanks for playing.- Zalyster, on 05/02/2008, -0/+6I agree that OP is a troll, but being a Sony fanboi myself I just want to point out that there is rumble now, and the uncompressed audio wouldn't be as much a problem on Blu-ray than it is on DVD, due to the large space of Blu-ray discs. But yeah, I agree with everything else.
- demiurgency, on 05/02/2008, -2/+13Best trolling post I've seen in a long time.
- noseeme, on 05/02/2008, -10/+4Note to PS3 fanboy: The Cell is not rendering even .5% of your ***** polygons. ("***** polygons" sounds epic)
Hopefully they make the PC release (as usual will be a long time away from console lauch) look much better, like they usually do. - surKaz, on 05/02/2008, -5/+7My god!.. are Digg users (360 and PS3) actually uniting over GTA4 to collectively beat up this troll?... GTA 4.. I ask again, what can't you do?
- max420, on 05/02/2008, -0/+2GTA4 can cure cancer....
- FredFredrickson, on 05/02/2008, -5/+4If the Xbox were actually holding it back, the PS3 would be running the game at a higher resolution, and at higher framerates.
If I were you, I'd be wondering why my console, which was released a year after for a higher price, can't push the games as hard as the older, "inferior" console. - fr0ng, on 05/02/2008, -3/+8Your comment appears to be vastly inferior, son.
- GeekyGerge, on 05/02/2008, -1/+6I'm a big PS3 gamer but you're just a douchebag.
- JusticeFriend, on 05/02/2008, -1/+1Dont feed the fanboys
- santa7, on 05/02/2008, -22/+67Aarrrrgggg I need a console! I will be unable to wait for PC release, I need to get some money and go get a PS3 and be happy.
- Ganja420, on 05/02/2008, -42/+56you mean xbox 360
- Wesside, on 05/02/2008, -37/+14maybe he doesnt want a deathbox 360?
- FredFredrickson, on 05/02/2008, -11/+42Deathbox...? Oh, right, the RRoD thing, gotcha.
Which console is having the most issues running GTA4?
Hint: It's not the Deathbox. - HakonD, on 05/02/2008, -8/+5Calm down kids!
- shredswithpiks, on 05/02/2008, -5/+14^^ which console is having the most issues running? (currently my 2nd replacement 360, don't know a single person in real life who hasn't had to replace their's at least once)
- SpectralSounds, on 05/02/2008, -3/+7I own a 360 Elite and a day one launch 360 and have never had a single issue. I have multiple friends with launch day one 360s and none of them have ever had any issues.
I'm not denying that it happens, but out of everyone I know that owns a 360 it has never happened to any of us. - Ganja420, on 05/02/2008, -0/+2OH YEA well i don't know anyone IRL who has had a permanent RRoD...
- ngmcs8203, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5"I don't know a single person in real life."
FYP - BearinG, on 05/05/2008, -0/+1I'm just glad i got the RRoD.. caus now this refurb works better than any other one before it.. and my warranty was expired a LONG time ago.. but im glad it didn't cost me a thing.. now if only it can break again before my extra 1 year warranty ends.. I'll have a 360 for 10 years if it keeps up!
he did say "issue running GTA4"
- SpectralSounds, on 05/02/2008, -3/+7I own a 360 Elite and a day one launch 360 and have never had a single issue. I have multiple friends with launch day one 360s and none of them have ever had any issues.
- jgtg32a, on 05/02/2008, -1/+3@FredFredrickson
PC?
did I get it?
@shredswithpiks
My friend just got his back, he had his since the elite came out, didn't die till the appt flooded. - FredFredrickson, on 05/02/2008, -7/+4Yeah, you would have gotten it right if there was a PC version out right now. Wait a year or two, and you'll be spot on.
I'm going to pick this game up for PC when it comes out too, now that I think about it. I like having it on 360, but GTA has always been a PC thing for me - plus I can't help but want to see how awesome the game looks and runs on my rig! - h2g242, on 05/02/2008, -3/+2the elites have beefier heat sinks and different power supplies. i havent had a problem im pretty sure theyve fixed everything they could and its just as good as any other product now. xbox live cannot be beat over sony's option anyway. oh and lets talk about game selection, oh wait, ps3 has none.
- gunslinger907, on 05/02/2008, -0/+2maybe you should just leave fanboy-ing to the pros
- digitalarcanum, on 05/02/2008, -0/+9xbox 360: 33% established rate of failure. that means one in three consoles. think about that for a moment. that being said, I own a PS3, a 360 (that I've already had to send back for repairs) and a wii, so I'll let all you idorts fight over which console is the best, while I enjoy all three.
- FredFredrickson, on 05/02/2008, -11/+42Deathbox...? Oh, right, the RRoD thing, gotcha.
- slapded, on 05/03/2008, -4/+6you mean ps3. he didnt say he was a ***** or a salad tosser
- Wesside, on 05/02/2008, -37/+14maybe he doesnt want a deathbox 360?
- pigducksheep, on 05/02/2008, -28/+12good choice over the 360. I own a PS3 and it's one of the best investments i have ever made.
- Jholder112233, on 05/02/2008, -10/+39How is a PS3 an investment? It's never going to earn you profit..
- infekt, on 05/02/2008, -12/+651. Buy PS3
2. ????
3. Fail - rudy23, on 05/02/2008, -13/+3entertainment = profit.
- JusticeFriend, on 05/02/2008, -4/+2@infekt
ROFLMAO!!
- infekt, on 05/02/2008, -12/+651. Buy PS3
- FredFredrickson, on 05/02/2008, -7/+13Console A is a better investment because console B costs less and has more games. Goodbye logic!
- Jholder112233, on 05/02/2008, -10/+39How is a PS3 an investment? It's never going to earn you profit..
- petebot, on 05/02/2008, -16/+8you mean Wii?
- Ganja420, on 05/02/2008, -6/+4Oh yea how is GTA IV on the wii??? oh wait
- Borgcube, on 05/02/2008, -2/+3You don't really get the whole concept of sarcasm, do you?
- umpres, on 05/02/2008, -0/+4Sarcasm, easy to learn, a lifetime to master.
- Ganja420, on 05/02/2008, -6/+4Oh yea how is GTA IV on the wii??? oh wait
- Testiculese, on 05/02/2008, -6/+12Wait for it, the PC version will be even better.
- gunslinger907, on 05/02/2008, -4/+3for when that moment comes Thepiratebay will save me
- gibman, on 05/02/2008, -0/+10Buy it. Rockstar deserves it.
- jer2eydevil88, on 05/02/2008, -2/+1Mark my words: PC Release in 2 years.
- bluesatin, on 05/02/2008, -4/+0Probably worse, I can see a terrible console port coming this way.
*Cough splinter cell double agent Cough*- Seifey, on 05/02/2008, -0/+2Yeah, because a port by a COMPLETELY different game producer will have the same problems as a game from a series that has had ports superior to the system they were ported from.
- orph3us, on 05/03/2008, -1/+1maybe, but this is the kind of game I would love to play sitting on my bean bag chair, 10 feet away from the computer.. I'm getting sick of always sitting at my computer desk to play games... too bad i can't afford a 360 right now...
- mattvander, on 05/03/2008, -1/+1that's ok... you can save up and buy the superior PS3 instead.
- Testiculese, on 05/05/2008, -0/+1You can buy wireless PS3/360 controllers for PC. I have a PS3 styled one from Logitech.
(My game machine is also hooked up to the big TV)
- gunslinger907, on 05/02/2008, -4/+3for when that moment comes Thepiratebay will save me
- stephbeaudet, on 05/02/2008, -3/+0so im not the only one who thinks that....unfortunately, i lost that ipod touch bill so i cant get my money backY_Y
- Epik, on 05/02/2008, -9/+10I've owned all three consoles and sold them, disappointed, but the release of GTA IV along with Gran Turismo 5 Prologue and Blu Ray as the winning format makes it so PS3 is worth keeping around for me. $300 for a factory sealed 40GB PS3 off craigslist. It's got everything I need and even runs quieter, cooler, and uses less power than the others.
The 360 has more games but I'm not the type of person who needs or has the time for a lot of games. I just need the best ones. Which is why I maintain that the PC is the best multiplayer experience. CoD4 and TF2, awesome.
The PS3 is an upconverting DVD player, Blu Ray player, and let's me play GTA IV and GT online for free. The sleek black also fits in nicely with the rest of my home theater setup. Being able to order the ceramic white Dualshock 3 controller is just icing on the cake. I probably could have waited for the actual GT5 to be released next year, but I was seduced by the Logitech G25 wheel/pedals and the Playseats Evolution racing seat. 1080p Gran Turismo on a 47" LCD, leather-wrapped 900-degree steering wheel w/ force feedback, metal pedals with clutch and H-style shifter, all on a sturdy metal frame with a comfy bucket seat, and uncompressed PCM HDMI surround sound audio? Just couldn't resist.
PS3 and be happy is right. Even if there weren't any RROD issues with the 360, what does it have to offer? "Greater selection of mediocre over-priced console games, great online experience with XBL(not as good as PC) that you get to pay for, and it's cheaper." It's cheaper for a reason. The 360 doesn't offer the media capabilities of the PS3, the built-in wireless, built-in Blu Ray player, built-in DVD upconversion, or the perfect Dualshock wireless controllers that charge through the usb connection. 40GB PS3 is still hundreds cheaper than the Elite 360 that doesn't offer any of this.
My $0.02- rockefeller2, on 05/02/2008, -5/+3Wow, your mom must have a really big basement.
- burrgrinder, on 05/02/2008, -2/+5Don't forget adding HD capacity is significantly cheaper with the PS3. Standard laptop hard drives area big plus, and being able to play DivX natively has it's benefits too. XBL may be a superior service too, but it costs money vs. Sony's free service and all the content is DRM infested crap that you still have to pay for (minus the occasional freebie).
- FredFredrickson, on 05/02/2008, -0/+5$0.02 for that? The dollar must be on a REALLY big decline these days.
- LeNoir, on 05/03/2008, -0/+1I don't understand why you are being voted down.
- seeingthedark, on 05/02/2008, -5/+2you lead a sad life if you need a PS3 to be happy. damn go outside a get a girlfriend or something.
- nepidae, on 05/02/2008, -1/+2you lead a sad life if you need a girlfriend to be happy. damn go outside and get a job or something.
- lostprophet23, on 05/02/2008, -3/+1you lead a sad life if you need a job to be happy. damn go outside and get friends or something.
- rockefeller2, on 05/02/2008, -2/+5you lead a sad life if you need a job to be happy. damn go outside and get a rhinoceros or something.
- seeingthedark, on 05/03/2008, -2/+0At least I dont need a piece of technology to dictate my happiness in life. I have real human interaction, not fake ones on a TV screen. ***** im going to ride my bike.
oh I have job, friends, a girlfriend, what more does a man need. A PS3, I think not.
Ride a ***** Bike.
- nepidae, on 05/02/2008, -1/+2you lead a sad life if you need a girlfriend to be happy. damn go outside and get a job or something.
- lobsterxcore, on 05/02/2008, -2/+8What's with all the 360 fanboys?
- KnuckleZ, on 05/02/2008, -4/+5What's with the ps3 fanboys?
- BearinG, on 05/05/2008, -0/+1Its just this thread.. then you'll scroll down and notice the PS3 fanboys just the same.. its not gonna go away as long as Microsoft and Sony don't make one unified console... so.. never..
- pox05, on 05/02/2008, -1/+4this is the reason i bought an xbox, still the only game i own for it
- Ganja420, on 05/02/2008, -42/+56you mean xbox 360
- Dylson, on 05/02/2008, -13/+1This some kind of joke?
- prime9891, on 05/02/2008, -25/+8Ugh not another GTA4 article...
- surKaz, on 05/02/2008, -1/+12so.. u clicked on this submission, and scrolled down, and typed a comment saying that?..
- flipdoubt, on 05/02/2008, -3/+15I know, right?! And what's up with all these "Obama/Hillary" articles I keep seeing everywhere as well? It's like ... all these people ... keep writing all this stuff ... about all these timely, popular, and socially relevant things! What is their motivation? What is the endgame?! It's a mystery man! It's a mystery wrapped in an enigma inside of a riddle! It boggles the mind; nay, it yahtzees the mind!
- freshyill, on 05/02/2008, -17/+6This map is pissing me off. Twice I added something to it (a pistol on the walking path above the Broker Bridge), and twice when I go back, it's been taken off the map. WTF?
Edit: And now what the ***** is this? Somebody else put it there, and it's still there? WTF, IGN?- noseeme, on 05/02/2008, -1/+32Holy *****, I think they might be out to get you. Do you have a fallout shelter by any chance?
- BearinG, on 05/05/2008, -0/+1Its been burned down.. talk to Mallorie and Roman.. they'll hook you up..
- eviltrance, on 05/02/2008, -1/+9They have to approve the marker first by verifying the location before publishing. Didnt you read the help section?
- JigoroKano, on 05/02/2008, -1/+2They obviously didn't verify that tattoo parlor... which they seemingly placed inside a run down garage shop.
- freshyill, on 05/02/2008, -4/+1Um, so they verified that guy's, but not mine?
- mesasone, on 05/02/2008, -0/+3That would appear to be the case
- Light11, on 05/02/2008, -1/+2was most likely submitted before yours?
- SimpsonsFan007, on 05/05/2008, -0/+0Hey, I'm one of the staffers on the site - just wanted to let you know that your spots do indeed have to be verified by one of us, to help prevent the useless stuff that some have submitted. And we approve in order of submission, so it could be that someone submitted it before you. There are some items that we will be deleting when the dust settles, so to speak, because obviously some of the items/locations are improperly labeled. Thanks for visiting though!
- BearinG, on 05/05/2008, -0/+1Is it someone's job to do that? Sitting around verifying all the spots ? Can I do it ?
I mean, you'll owe me big time but.. we'll talk about that later..- SimpsonsFan007, on 05/05/2008, -0/+0Ahh, I should have been clearer... I'm a VOLUNTEER staffer. Heh. But doing this really helps me enjoy the game more though, I think! I'm finding out all sorts of things!

- coit, on 05/02/2008, -19/+11We hate MBM now? I missed the memo.
- Bukowsky, on 05/02/2008, -13/+33Did you even read the article? or did you just blindly bury it based on the submitter?
- bullcutter, on 05/02/2008, -6/+16burying an article because of the submitter is just as valid a reason as any
- burrgrinder, on 05/02/2008, -6/+1I'm pretty convinced MrBabyMan is a submit bot anyways.
- Aerandir, on 05/03/2008, -3/+2I just blindly buried it based on the submitter.
- bullcutter, on 05/02/2008, -6/+16burying an article because of the submitter is just as valid a reason as any
- Jassman, on 05/02/2008, -6/+23Why? Do you think he submits too many things? How do you think a community like this is supposed to be run, if you find it acceptable to bury people based on who they are and not what was submitted?
- darlyn, on 05/02/2008, -1/+13What's unacceptable is the fact that certain people do the exact opposite by digging the article because it's MrBABYmAN
- bullcutter, on 05/02/2008, -4/+10uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the whole point of Digg is that stories are supposed to be pushed to the front page based on their own merit, not because some people spend their waking life figuring out how to manipulate and own the system for petty gains of ego (and possibly money) ...
the fact of the matter is this: MrBabyMan (or any other supersubmitter) could disappear tomorrow and it would only free up room for more original and diverse content on the front page, because that's how Digg works.
what, you think babyman is what makes Digg interesting?! i bet you hundreds would beg to differ
an exception, this article actually IS meritous, thats why i dugg it, but its still also fun to rip on MrBabySpam- MrBabyMan, on 05/02/2008, -9/+13"free up room for more original and diverse content on the front page"? In the past 24 hours there were 120 stories on the front page. How many of those 120 stories were my submissions? One. How many in the 24 hours previous? One. Your argument has no validity whatsoever. If you don't have a problem with the submission itself, go troll somewhere else. I hear 4Chan.org likes that sort of thing.
- bullcutter, on 05/02/2008, -3/+8you're right, you've gotten considerably less offensive recently with the amount of your bs that makes it to the front page, so i commend you on that
when i first started, you and your buddies hogged the entire front page but things have gotten considerably more diverse recently, thats why you dont see me bitching as much - Danby123, on 05/03/2008, -3/+1MrBabyMan, I will just assume you are right since you are the only one here who knows anything about digg. Every one else is jealous of your internet fame and should go stick their head in a puddle and keep it there.
- RunnyBabbit, on 05/03/2008, -2/+2One in 120 is a big ***** number.
- bullcutter, on 05/02/2008, -3/+8you're right, you've gotten considerably less offensive recently with the amount of your bs that makes it to the front page, so i commend you on that

one day BabySpam really did submit an article called "Top 10 Things You Didn't Know About Poo"... hahahaha... i was saving that for a punchline to a joke!
- bullcutter, on 05/02/2008, -1/+1and msaleem: "Ten Top 10 (Ten) Ways to Write 10 Top Ten (10) Lists"
- tomwhughes, on 05/02/2008, -2/+4I dugg the digg link from IGN itself, which appeared before this story. So MrBabyMan submitted a duplicate story. But hey I guess it doesn't really matter cause its the same story both ways - at least there is no MrBabyMan blog for him to capitalise on yet.
- mlvassallo, on 05/02/2008, -5/+12Is there any way to access the map while NOT on IGN's page?
- plizard, on 05/02/2008, -2/+1google cache
- noseeme, on 05/02/2008, -4/+16Yeah, I'll mail a picture of it to you. What's your address?
- ChannelCat, on 05/02/2008, -1/+24Here's how to get the map without going to IGN's page: First, buy Grand Theft Auto IV (for any console) and remove the shrink wrap from the case. You may also need to remove protection stickers on the side or top of the game case. Next, open the game case. On the right side you will see the game disc. On the left side will be a book labeled "Liberty City Guidebook." Remove the book, and under it should lie a folded document. Remove it from the case, unfold it, and you should see a large map (you may need to turn it over if you unfolded it backwards). Congratulations! You are now looking at the map displayed in this Digg article without having to go to IGN's page!
- BearinG, on 05/05/2008, -0/+1Actually that's the SUBWAY map isn't it? not actual city map.. I used it at first for the street names but its still missing an entire Island..
- wrxRP, on 05/09/2008, -0/+0It's on the other side of the subway map. Turn the piece of paper over.

get a new pc?
I'm on a very mediocre system at my work and its just fine.

- dyreschlock, on 05/02/2008, -2/+7you could probably view it at home.

- noseeme, on 05/02/2008, -12/+9MUST... RESIST... URGE TO BUY... I've always bought the GTA's when they came out.
College tuition (super expensive unfair Drexel University edition), or using polygonal prostitutes as ATMs. Hmmm. :)- webbyman, on 05/02/2008, -1/+8Just buy it, you know you will anyway...
- LogicBomB, on 05/02/2008, -4/+3You can't afford to drop $60 on a game but you spend how much on beer, eating out and coffee while at university? I don't know a single college/university student who doesnt buy too much alcohol, eat out for almost every meal and buys too much coffee. Cut any 1 thing down a bit and you have $60.
- gutistg, on 05/02/2008, -1/+21
- Atrophius, on 05/04/2008, -0/+0You don't know very many college/university students, do you? My two roommates and I don't drink alcohol or coffee, and regularly cook meals. My fiancee doesn't drink alcohol, her food is mostly provided by her college (meal plans included in tuition), and doesn't drink coffee too often. Her roommate doesn't drink alcohol, food is also mostly provided by her college, and doesn't drink coffee too often. HER boyfriend doesn't drink alcohol, food is also mostly provided by his college, and doesn't drink coffee too often.
Seeing a pattern, here? You either don't know very many college students or you're looking at the wrong college(s).
- uncommonwords, on 05/02/2008, -0/+3my tuition is approaching 30k...and i bought my copy Tuesday at midnight. Only 65 bucks. Get a job. Give up beer for 3 days.
- rockefeller2, on 05/02/2008, -1/+2*****, 30k for tuition. I'd rather go to state school and be debt free.
- pearlygate, on 05/02/2008, -0/+130k for drexel is not worth it man.
- Atrophius, on 05/04/2008, -0/+0$30k for tuition is cheap, sir. My tuition is coming DOWN and it's still over $45k. My fiancee's tuition is closer to $60k. I could've gone to a crummy state or community college and only paid ~$15k for it, but what would I have to show for that, post-graduation?
- norle, on 05/02/2008, -0/+29Hey, where's the button for the satellite overlay?

- HeyBob, on 05/02/2008, -0/+2Thanks - but I think you can use Google for free to do this or you can code it yourself with javascript (ajax) - I was hoping for a tutorial page that might help

- Andyschism, on 05/02/2008, -3/+5Whoever 1313-Evil-Homer is, they are going to finish the game in a couple of days.
- DryerCombo, on 05/03/2008, -0/+1He's the IGN Forum admin.
- aladrin, on 05/02/2008, -4/+11Oh joy, anyone can add any random garbage they want. I'm sure that'll go well. I already see mislabeled hotdog stands and hookers labeled as 'perverts'. -sigh-
- eviltrance, on 05/02/2008, -1/+2All markers go into a pending line where staff check to see if its a real marker or not before publishing. FYI, perverts are the right term for hookers, check out the ingame map, they call them perverts.
- scottnash, on 05/02/2008, -0/+3Perverts aren't the hookers, there are pedestrians who are perverts. The first one you meet is stoned and gives you $100
- xigxag, on 05/07/2008, -0/+1Seriously, what were they thinking allowing input from anybody...I mean look how wikipedia turned out.
- TecK415, on 05/02/2008, -6/+6I'm 50% in so far. This game is sooo good! ah!
- spacebuddy, on 05/02/2008, -0/+4All my other games are gathering dust, this game is awesome.
- digitallysick, on 05/02/2008, -3/+5Off topic, but i am having GTAIV PS3 surround sound issues. i have a 5.1 system, works with all my blu ray/games without issue. I am using the optical out, GTA will only play through the front left/right speakers. I have searched the net, and see others having the same issue. Everyone seems to point to a settings problem but i think they are wrong, i think its a game problem. If all other movies/games play with no issue, wouldn't it be safe to say the trouble is with the game?
- wibambau, on 05/02/2008, -1/+1I see you have checked the net... but have you specifically checked gtaforums.com? If not, just about every off-topic section on any message board has a thread or two. Also, maybe digg has an item publ... oh wait.
- thehuntedpossum, on 05/03/2008, -0/+1i have no problems...
- BCTripster, on 05/05/2008, -0/+0In game, hit Start .. go to Audio options and there you can adjust the output, by default it seems to only use the front speakers, but you can enable the rear from that menu. Worked for me.
- salazarmark, on 05/02/2008, -8/+3YOU'RE ALL GENETICALLY INFERIOR LEAVE THE GAME TO US ALPHA, YOU DIG?
- SteelFrog, on 05/02/2008, -1/+1Crap, I dugg you down before I realized what the reference was. I wish I could un-bury you.

- SubKamran, on 05/02/2008, -0/+3I wish the in-game map had street names. I just put up the street map poster that came with the game right beside the TV, so I just use that.

hey for all actual GTA IV owners, we need to let R* know that we need a LAN patch

- ColorBlind, on 05/02/2008, -0/+13Work sucks, i'm only like 5% in.
- thailand1972, on 05/03/2008, -0/+1Same for me everyday. Just can't get into it more than that. They need to make work more appealing.
- BearinG, on 05/05/2008, -0/+1I wish I was still there at 5% (not that i don't enjoy my new "benefits" but..).. I'm at 36% and I'm feeling bad for playing so fast.. i keep thinking "damn! already 1/3.. i have to slow down or it'll be done before i know it.."
This is my new life..
- GeekyGerge, on 05/02/2008, -0/+4Is there actually anything to do in Alderney?
- italics, on 05/02/2008, -0/+6No, it's based off New Jersey.

- Huangism, on 05/02/2008, -9/+1this game sucks
- ferretpants, on 05/02/2008, -0/+2Sure, because crappy games often get multiple reviews with perfect scores
- Xanth, on 05/02/2008, -3/+2They need a Google street view option.
- JusticeFriend, on 05/02/2008, -11/+7WHEN ON PC?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
(the use of caps and excesive "?!?!" makes the people of rockstar work faster for the PC version) - rollerboy, on 05/02/2008, -1/+3That lame I was hoping for a "satellite view". I saw one for Oblivion like that and it was amazing.
- yayintertubes, on 05/02/2008, -1/+1I'll be impressed when I can see it on Google Earth. With the entire game recreated in Sketchup. Dugg anyway.
- steviesteveo, on 05/02/2008, -4/+1It's horrible that GTA IV has been released right at the time when you need to be studying for exams in Britain.
You have to choose between fun and the rest of your life, it's -really- hard to decide when the fun involves GTA IV- thailand1972, on 05/03/2008, -0/+2Choose fun.

- HappyScrappy, on 05/02/2008, -0/+1I want to use something like this, but I want to fill in my own notes, not get other people's (because I want to find stuff for myself). Anyone know how I can modify this mashup or make my own to accomplish this?
Right now I just have to write down textual descriptions of the locations, which sucks. - rex84, on 05/02/2008, -0/+1I don't understand, I tried finding two of the motorcycles that are listed here, but they're not where listed on this map. Wassup? There's a lack of sport bikes, only choppers, need a JCM.
- rayblasdel, on 05/03/2008, -1/+3^.^;; And here I thought it would be more then a scanned strat-guide map.

it's a scanned image from the map included with the game... what do you expect.. :P
