JC2 is still bigger. An Arma 3 dev (I think) made a comparison picture a few days ago of a bunch of game worlds.

Yeah the problem with GTA 4 was that there was no variety, no long stretches of curvy roads or anything.

I agree on the color palette of IV there, although, if heard it was that way by design.
There are some good points of color in it though. The gray of it kind of feels more NY to be honest, speaking as a native NYer. I think there are a lot of gray and browns throughout NYC. The colors of V are much more suited to its environment.
I'd love to see that!

There is a really good one by one of the developers/designers at Bohemian Interactive (ArmA 3) but I can't find it anymore. It was posted in the GTA V map leak thread a week ago.

Disappointed in yourself, right? Discovering new music you enjoy is a wonderful experience. I guess it's pretty cool if you have found everything you will ever enjoy.

Here it is:
Very accurate as far as I can tell.
San Andreas is missing but would be about half the size of V.
Oh sure, it's great to discover new stuff. I guess it will mean I probably won't change station very often and just listen what is playing at the time when I get in the car.
It's not necessarly a bad thing, it's just not as memorable as the VC or SA soundtrack.

. Beaten and didn't have the JC2 map. My goodness, I knew JC2's map was crazy but wow. I should play that some until GTA5 is out. Is the MP mod up?
Like every GTA though, the beauty is learning how the music interacts with the world around you. The moment that perfect song comes on as the world around you devolves into complete madness!
And then, there's a moment I had in TBOGT. Yusuf and Luis had just completed a mission of pure extravagance. Riding back to the apartment, "Young Hearts Run Free" came on. Cruising in a banshee, the city lights glittering against the purple sunset. Complete bliss.

A soundtrack of all new songs means you can gain an even more expansive library of favorites. I was ecstatic that I didn't know too many.
Now I know about Toro Y Moi, and The Chain Gang of 1974.

I barely had the money this week to pay off GTA so I won't get to have my "classic" all nighter. I think I have enough for some Shasta and pizza rolls. 'nuff said.
Biggest game worlds I have seen/played are JC2 and Fuel.(Heard Daggerfall is immense but never played). I love JC2 size, varied terrain and overall craziness. Sadly it was to big for what they put in it. Fuel is I believe even bigger than JC2. But it's empty. I mean realy just empty. So I am super excited for a giant game world that is dense as hell.

JC2's map was just insane. I'm hoping one day they do a JC3.....I really do

Sorry, didn't help.
And then you land in the deepest abyss of the ocean. Perfection!
Not really. I still remember the blatantly obvious buy american ads for cars, the rambo/arnold parody ad and of course Love Fist all from Vice City.

The key thing both those games share is that their worlds are ridiculously boring and empty in large spots. Having a massive world means nothing when you can't find anything to do with it.
Brown ale my GTA brethren!

Yep, FUEL is really massive. It's as large as the entire Connecticut state!

I don't have any special food / snack plans for Tuesday, but I'm having a buddy over for some blunts and GTA as soon as he's got a day off. Gonna be just like the San Andreas days. :-D
Jersey represent! Stand up! I was out living in the East Village last year, but money was tight. Moved back to South Orange, respite from the grit. That city will be the death of me.
Tearing down 95, back in DC to attend the midnight launch in my hometown. Stopped by the side of the road to stare at the Domino Sugars sign in Baltimore. That's the reminder of home, the effervescent glow.

If am lucky i'll have my game in 15-16 hours.

But if i'm not lucky i'll have to wait until Tuesday.
Five years of waiting. You're part of the movement, the cultural revolution! Hopefully, I'll join your rank at midnight on Tuesday!

Oh sweet Jesus, I'm actually considering going to my first midnight launch ever. A JB-HiFi (Australia) is doing one just around the corner from where I live. If I go, that means I'll have the game in 13 hours.
Oh man.
OH MAN.
Oh man.
OH MAN.
Nicely done my friend. Enjoy.
I succumbed to the hype and pre ordered this morning. Going to my first midnight launch tomorrow night with my good friend. Mine as well!
DO IT! It's an experience in it's own right! This happens once every half decade!
Real talk, the GTA IV release was the craziest launch I'd ever been a part of. First in line got dropped in the parking lot, Police showed up late. GTA is no joke!

Ah, gotcha. The midnight launch is gonna be beastly! I hear ya man. The city is a bit too fast paced for my liking. I actually just moved back up here from California. I guess you could say I pulled a reverse CJ.
Well one of the reasons I really like FUEL is because I can go for a very quiet drive with nothing other than the sound of your vehicle and the atmosphere of the game. I love the way the environments naturally change when going from one to the other and I just find it a very peaceful game to put on now and again. It's one of the reasons I love Far Cry 2 so much as well, I just love pottering about in that world
Plus I do enjoy FUELs races and the various weather it has etc. Plus on PC I can fuck about with the FUEL Refueled mod though admittedly I played more of it on 360 than PC (since the PC version uses GFWL)Dude I know I am so thankful this dude was legit. Met him on craigslist rofl, 80 bucks.
So. Fucking. Boss! Amazing feeling to get it early I bet- you're one of the luckiest few in the world!
Can't wait!
Hah Ty man, so hyped.

Can't wait for tomorrow. Midnight launch tradition of me and my friends hitting up Applebees around 10pm to devour a ton of half-price apps then walking across the street to Gamestop to pick our game up.
Although I have a 3 hour night class at 6pm. Ah well, tomorrow is gonna be rad.

After five years on the West Coast, it was time to go home! I carry a love and respect for Jersey in my blood- I put that on everything. Watching Sandy tear up the coast broke my heart. Cheers to the Garden State!
