GTA4 doesn't need to come to wii. It's a cold blooded game that only idiots would buy,

LOL I am not cold blooded. I actually really hate violence. But it is just a video game. There is a difference between a video game and reality. Also, I don't think GTA 4 will ever come to the Wii. But I hope some GTA game will come out for it.


 

it's a video game that glorifies crime. That's why it's cold blooded

I never said it wasn't cold blooded. I said that I am not cold blooded.


 

you are cold blooded to yourself for letting yourself enjoy a game that lets u do crime when u know it's not right

Either you are a n00b to gaming, or you are a joke account, or you are a jack thomson wannabe. 



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

The problem I thought of ever since Nintendo wanted rockstare to bring the game over is motion sensor. I mean if you think about it every move. To run would have to be something. To shoot would have to be something. to punch would be something and to drive would be something. some missions would involve moving the Wii mote. To fly a plane and the list keeps going on.
Then you think about it well if the Wiimote and nunchuk connected how can you drive. IDK how they would do that since all I mean all of the racing games the Wiimote is not connected nunchuk and you drive holding the wiimote sideways. So all the driving/flying would have to work with out the Wiimote being sideways. There are so many thing you would have to do with the controls it would take like 1 years just on controls.

The problem with Nintendo and Rockstar is that Rockstargames don't sell on Nintendo consoles. That's all there is to it.

Just look at the sales at Table tennis and Manhunt. Manhunt was an expensive game to develop. I.e.g for Wii-standards. And it has sold like what, 100k in the US. It's on track for 150-200k in the US lifetime. That ain't well. And i won't even start about Table tennis, what a flop saleswise.

I guess that if Manhunt 2 does well in the EU (Lets say it reaches 300k Ww, that would ensure a profit. For it has been released on 2 systems and 1 handheld). And if Bully does moderately well (Lets say 320-400k Ww) we MIGHT just see a new GTA on the Wii.

Or else, we're gonna see GTA: SA stories on the Wii, there's no doubt in my mind about that one.

So far (i repeat, 'so far'), nothing has been shown for GTA4 that was not possible on the ps2 (judging from its similarity so far to san andreas, imo)

So i don't see why a (if not GTA4, another) GTA game could not be brought onto wii without any difficulties..

Personally i hope they just bring GTA4 to PC, because that has always been my favourite 'console' to play it on, which could change if they do a wii version correctly

eh, whatever works, I don't like the games to begin with so I'll be happy with anything that increases the Wii's appeal and userbase.

Don't try that crap. You're completely ignoring the fact that those games are not well regarded by either hardcore or casual gamers. GTA is obviously a different story.

Okay, there is GTA Advance, but that's a black sheep in the series, so it's not well regarded either.

nothing?¿? Graphics, world size, behavior of ai? All that the PS2 would never able to handle. The Wii may handle  a little downgrad of the graphics, (because of the smaller resolution size) the rest, i doubt it. It can't handle the big world and ai of GTA4. Not what i have seen. That just needs to much ram and cpu. No the Wii and the PS2 can't handle that. No No No never.

I don't like SA.

To me it goes;
VC>3>>SA>2 I still like 2 btw... topdown is cool.

GTA2 is good but it's expansion (London) makes it 100% better.

 London was an expansion for the original GTA, GTA2 was a very different game in many areas :) And London sucked! :P

A game of GTA IV's proportion and looks would be a programmers nightmare to port to the Wii with disc space, memory and cpu/gpu issues in mind. It'd have to be so dumbed down that it basically would be a new GTA... I really don't see the point on Rockstars behalf.

it would be nice is a wii GTA was made and it would be better if it used the wii mote point+shoot with the wii-mote is just awesome but i hope its not a port of GTA3,VC or SA because ive played those to death it would be good if they remade GTA2 in 3D for wii
