How many flying vehicles are there in the game? I've only seen two different helicopters in GTA IV.

I basically drive drunk all the time :mellow:
I'm not liking the driving mechanics. It feels too sloppy. Past GTA games had better handling, even Saints Row. I find it hard to drive fast and brake/make a quick turn in time or with precision because I always end up skidding.

Right now I'm about as far as my first date.

Using your E-brake is much better then using your regular brakes. When your at high speeds and want to make a quick stop use your E-brake.

Its "X" on the PS3, so "A" on the 360 sounds right.

I just find the traction and car handling horrible. :(

Edit: Are custom tracks even in? If not, then it's a step backwards from the Xbox GTA's. :(

Nope there is no custom tracks in Grand Theft Auto 4.. Oh and in my opinion the car handling isn't horrible.. You'll get used to it. Not every vehicle feels the same you know.. I would love to know what buttons you guys press while you're doing a turn.

I actually like the driving and got use to it quick.

when Im going fast and need to turn I press the break in advance (to slow down a bit) then the turning is easy


you guys will probly get use to it soon :)

I don't know, I hope so. It just doesn't feel so good that the brakes suck. In other GTA games, I can drive fast and use the E-Brake easily to perform a quick turn. In GTA IV, doing so makes the car skid so much that I end up crashing with a car or wall. Rather than turn properly and remain on the street, I end up on the sidewalk. The Normal Brake sucks too because when you hit the brake, the car slides too far up before it actually halts. Hopefully I can adapt better to it. Besides that, I feel likes it's just not as good as before. Saints Row has better handling.

BTW, anyone who loves this game will love Saints Row. I just can't see why not. It's a similar sandbox game. GTA IV is more like Saints Row, than Saints Row is to pre GTA IV GTA's.

Just 360. It was being made for PS3 after it came out on 360, but it got scrapped for some reason. I guess they wanted to focus on Saints Row 2 coming this August. I think part 2 is 360 exclusive as well.

I've heard that Saint Row 2 is not going to be an Xbox 360 exclusive. It's going to be on both consoles. I can see this happening since Grand Theft Auto 4 is on both Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. I never brought Saint Row but I have played it but i didn't like it and especially the story. I rather stick with the Grand Theft Auto series..

So far my best thing is the graphics and the atmosphere but the background seems to be blurry, especially at night.. The online is ok but the options could have been better...
