    it might have just been me, but ive been running it on 2 seperate computers, 1 a vista 1 an XP, and i have only so far encountered the trade spot glitch, which is easily preventable if you are careful, plus ive had the game since release.

    so, yes, you should get it.

    and the deleting files, moving them around etc. is only if you are modding. i am using the all factions unlocked mod, and it was very straight forward and easy to understand.

    I'd get it, but be sure to post your rig details, hopefully someone will have a similar one and tell you if it runs ok.

    I bought GTA4 on release and had to wait 4 months or so until the patches let it work on my PC!

    If I hadn't had it yet (as a gift) I still wouldn't have bought it. Still needs a lot of work and not buying now means you save money in the long run and you'll show the companies that they'll need to bring out a more finished product in the first place.

    yeah....because big companies care that a few people didnt buy a game. thatll show em.........

    anyway, what work does it need in your opinion? i have only had 1 glitch so far, and it was the trade spot glitch, which was easily preventable.

    As far as the vanilla game goes its probably about as good as good gets for CA. Sure there will be some more patches and stuff but I'm thinking CA will only spend so much more time on it before moving onto their expansion packs. At this point you are either going to like it or hate it. Personally, I like it when it doesnt CTD which I havent yet experienced since new patch. I havent tried any mods yet. I was waiting for this patch before considering a mod since the issues in the original vanilla game were many and I was worried the patch would conflict with mods. My final verdict on this vanilla game... 7/10. Others may disagree, which is cool.
