Graphics update - check
Vehicles update - check
New characters/storyline - check
I haven't thoroughly played San Andreas, due to frustrating missions at the beginning and graphics that made my eyes bleed (I played it when it came out on PC), but I have played GTA 3 and Vice City to death. So if this is GTA 3 with updated graphics and I can drive that Benz in the video through the hood while spraying my MAC 10 - I am over this like russians on an arms deal.
Aye this trailer was slightly underwhelming, but I guess I was also dumb enough to expect something insanely extraordinary after they had a trailer about this trailer (plus the cover 
).
Anyway, yeah, graphics are kinda meh perhaps, but again (And I've used this argument since the dawn of time), its all about the scale of what they're doing. To this day I still find San Andreas to be one of the most impressive games made, based on the scale of the world.
Also, Nico looks kinda weird in some of the shots, like his hair has been slightly shaved. Also his face is also a bit different, hmmm...!
Looks better than San Andreas.
It's nice to see Russian gangs in a game; it's a nice change from black gangs trying to pop a cap in rival gangs' asses.
Quote from PogoPLooks better than San Andreas.
Considering SA was made for the PS2 and ported to the original XBox, I would definitely hope IV looks better, infact WAY better, than SA.
Dunno what the fuck is wrong with some of you guys? 
I think it looks fantastic!

Not in terms of graphics; I should have been clearer. The gameplay looks better, and the overall presentation.
Yeah but I don't think you've actually experienced modern graphics have you D3?

Beat me to it!
God - why are the sound effects in GTA games so bull - they better be replaceable fairly easily, the guns sound like bloody pea shooters. GTA games are all about power and awesomeness (that is a word 
) and having crappy gun sounds just throws that whole feeling for me.
On another note - the graphics are no impressive, but that being said they aren't bad. They won't make your eyes bleed unlike GTA SA.

I want that they code some extra cheats for the game man...
Quote from twiz
in gta 3 you could use like 30 cheats.. now i want 100 or more
ya know what im sayin

Do Quake 4 and F.E.A.R. count? 
Not on minimal detail at 640 res, no.
Hah, I run Quake 4 on high and F.E.A.R. on medium at 1024..
You've got to consider the scale of GTA4 anyway, it's huge and GTA was always a little cartoonish anyhow...
To be honest I kinda miss the old top down 2d GTA. I found it more fun than the 3d version.

QFT....the last bit 
Don't get me wrong when I say it looks kinda meh I'm thinking in average gfx standards on consoles today, I think its fucking insane considering the scale of what they're doing. The only game that comes close to having this kind of impressive scale is Assassins Creed, and there it still kinda has a slight copy/paste feel to it
Mmmmm soooo cant wait~~

I have to agree.
