Grand Theft Auto IV is one of the largest game launches of 2008 and already there are reports from many sources on the web that GTA IV is locking up (freezing) on the Playstation 3. Has your Xbox 360 Version Locked up??
Some owners of the 20GB PS3 have had issues with GTA IV locking up, while owners of the 40GB and 80GB PlayStation 3s have not yet reported any problems.
Is GTA IV locking up on your Xbox 360?? We don't think so..
We have 100's of members from HQ playing GTA IV right now and not one word of a lockup on the Xbox 360 version. If you have had issues with your Xbox 360 version we would like to hear about it.. Feel free to reply to the official topic on GTA IV Freezing issues here.

I been going on about Prototype for some time now and I finally got what I need to show you just how cool this is going to be.
If you take a little bit of DarkSector and a little bit of GTA and smash them in to a ball with a huge pile of cool you can only end up with one thing, Prototype.
SYNOPSIS
You are Alex Mercer, a shape-shifter with absolute mastery over your genetic structure, stalking the streets of New York City, searching for your past. Delve into a web of lies and rip the truth from those who've hidden it from the public for forty years. Learn that you are not alone in your amazing abilities; that other killers stalk the city.
A secret war is brewing in New York. First, battle below the media radar, then, watch as a deadly infection spirals out of control and the government seizes the media to stop the spread of information. Finally, experience New York under quarantine as martial law is instated; igniting a firestorm of combat, carnage and death.
Face an ever-growing army of infected — creatures warped and changed by the virus. As it spreads, more and more of New York falls under its control. The virus overwrites a creature's existing genetics; warping and changing their form into something else, something planned. As the virus gathers its army, rush to discover the secret behind it all; the one thing that can stop it all before the city falls into ruin.
Against you is Project BLACKWATCH – an elite force of Army specialists ready to stop the spread of the virus at any cost. These operatives have seen it all before, and are eager to track you down and bring you in, dead or alive. Their mandate is complete containment; even if it means everyone in New York must die.
Struggle to define what you will be. Do you assist BLACKWATCH in its hunt, or join forces with the virus and subjugate humanity? Push your powers to the limit, and unlock the genetic shackles that hold you in check.
Discover what lies beyond the edge of evolution.
Due out around Christmas of 08 so I know what I'm asking the fat man for this year, do you?
Speaking to the The Sunday Times Leslie Benzies has let his feelings be known on all the controversy surrounding the Grand Theft Auto series and in doing so made a few all to familiar comments.
Now it would seem that when an opining comment on the GTA games reads like this: "Rockstar’s games have frequently provoked controversy.
One game was withdrawn across America after it emerged that it contained hidden sex scenes. The case prompted Hillary Clinton to call on the Federal Trade Commission to investigate. She criticised Rockstarcriticized for "stealing the innocence of our children and making the difficult job of being a parent even harder.” that thay would follow up by stating a few cases that show whare GTA is linked to shootings or killings but guess what, thay cant since it has not happend.
Since GTA has no real links to killings or real life violence The Sunday Times had to turn to the old stand by (Manhunt) to try and get a point across about videogame violence, case in point: "High street retailers including Dixons, Currys and PC World banned the original Manhunt after it was linked to the murder in 2004 of Stefan Pakeerah, 14, from Leicester, who was beaten with a claw hammer and stabbed repeatedly. His parents blamed the murder on the game; the killer was a frequent player."
Benzies said (and this is whare the famileir coments come in): “We wanted to make a horror game that would scare you in the same way a film would.
“It doesn’t seem to me to be any worse than a film. If it’s a film or a book, you can do what you want. We seem to be in a different category.”
However, Benzies claims that some of those who criticise his games are unnerved by progress. “There is a big fear factor here. It’s the coming of the railways, it’s Elvis shaking his hips. It’s cars going over 25 miles per hour and making people explode,” he said.
“We’ve had such a beating over the past three years. If I get into a confrontation about it, once I’ve had my beating, I ask if they’ve ever played the game. Invariably they haven’t.”
Benzies said that he was mindful of the game’s 18 certificate and would not allow his children to play it, adding: “We’re very careful about who we market the game to and what is in the game.”
Now if a few of the comments seem famillier It might be because thay are a lot like a few of the coments that Stephen King made in an older post titled: Stephen King's take on games whare king made a few points on the unfair standerd in which games are held compaird to movies, and books.
I would love for my next post of this nature to be about how the movie and game raiting system are the same but i just cant see it working out that way so go forth and kill the masses and do as your violent mind wants, just keep it in the game and out of the news.
