PSM2, it's a magazine. They're looking for people to send in ideas for the next GTA, and then they give all the ideas over to Rockstar. They also did this with Vice City.

I've already sent my first list in.

I think you've been thinking about this a little too much, even though you are starting to repeat some of your ideas.

:)

You should send some of those ideas into PSM2.

The ability to replay missions.
#

Saving helicopters
#

Saving boats
#

Less glitches
#

2003 Porsche 911 Carrea
#

2003 Ford GT (GT40)
#

1964 Shelby Cobra
#

Weapons locker
#

Money safe
#

Jet airplane
#

Aircraft carrier (with functional guns)
#

AK-47
#

More complex missions
#

More shooting in missions
#

More missions
#

hills
#

highway overpasses
#

gloomy environment
#

prison
#

Less wanted stars when shooting gun
#

You could kill the cops BEFORE they report the crime and give you a wanted level.
EXAMPLE:
You need some money, so you kill a few business men.
A cop sees you, and so he runs over, while taking out his Walkie Talkie thing.
If you kill the cop BEFORE he gets to report you, you have no wanted level.
Although, if two cops see you do a crime, one would stay back and call the station, and the other would go after you.
#

realistic "crash-physics", that is, when you crash, the hood doesn't just fly off, but the front of the car might get a little squashed... maybe you should be able to turn this on and off because some people might not like it.
#

more hills, it makes for more jumps an places to snipe from!
#

the reason that they classed the weapons in GTA:VC I because it would take to long to cycle through your options. I think this was a good idea and they should keep it but maybe give u 2 types of weapon for each class.
#

I preferred the sunny weather in vc compared to the dark and dreary conditions of liberty. it makes gameplay more fun I think. it is possible to make it scary without taking the sunny weather.
#

more realistic shooting, maybe instead of when you shoot someone in the head it just made a hole, not their head disappears in a fountain of blood.
#

swimming, even if it is only for a certain time. It seems poor that you van take multiple shots to the head but cant swim!
#

more variety, more cars, buildings u can enter, more forms of transport and most importantly more types of people. it is strange that though all the cops look the same they don't notice when u infiltrate the police station.
#

I think you should have lorries with trailers and you can put cars into the trailers and drive around in the truck and then press like l2 or something and the car comes out and you can drive it
#

MULTIPLAYER DEATHMATCH
#

snow and ice etc coz it would be funny to drive around in it
#

proper car chases that involve other people
#

create your own car/bike/plane etc
#

and a blank island with nothing on it that you can build up a mini city on
#

more weapons, hills, choose your fate
#

A place to save boats
#

The ability to add things to your car i.e : Guns, rockets and such BUT most of all the ability to have Bulletproof, explosionproof, fireproof and Damageproof but onto you selected car ( For a price )
#

A better reward for 100% completion. And jet skis.
#

be the boss is the next GTA,
#

Hire Hitmen ,
#

Buy Cops
#

days/night should last longer
#

A really good idea that I thought of in GTA 4 would have to be a freeway... I would like if cars actually went faster instead of going so slow... jus thought it would be neat
#

proper garage so you can go and change colour and add hydraulics and tints etc.
#

more aircraft including a full winged dodo and a paramedic helicopter
#

no need to buy full guns at ammunation when you have one...instead the ability for you to buy only ammo at 1/10th price or so
#

swimming and more use of boats and stuff...even if the swimming was above water only at least it wouldn't be a frustrating
#

police should be more strategic and actually care about speed violations and the peds...meaning they will not run over a street full of peds only to catch you and also tasers at one star and unless you fire at cops first they wont fire at/beat you...but they can tase you and bust you like that...also it would be cool if the police actually fired on you with the tanks and the hunter came after you at 6 stars and maybe military hummers with mounted turret guns
#

more accessible environment even if most of the building were simply hollow shells they could give great cover for a shoot out
#

multiplay....online or not I personally would rather have multi tap capable with up to 4 players in co-op or deathmatch...and maybe races and stuff

This would actually be pretty good if they did it right.

I like the idea of police on bikes and the military in Hunters, but really, a tank's a tank. :)

If San Andreas is indeed set in San Fran, then you need not worry.

I'm not sure about this, what if you wipe out every gang? The game could end up quite boring. Maybe you could get certain members of the gangs to join your side though?

If Driver can manage it, I don't see why GTA can't.

This is a good point actually, I never realised how much of Vice City was just there for show, every area should have some use.

> Skating and a skatepark

I hate this idea, if this makes it into the game........

I would like to see this too, it will be interesting to see how Mercenaries manages to do that.

Nah, GTA is all about fun, the stealth genre bores the crap out of me.

The ability to rebel against someone giving you missions: e.g. you're doing missions for Diaz, you decide you don't think you can stand him anymore and rebel and kill him (this would give a lot more depth to the story)
#

if you get attacked and have like about 003 health you bleed a lot more and get scars scratches bruises and injured bones, meaning you wouldn't just need to go to the hospital when you get killed but when you get injured as well.
#

Maybe another character to play as.
#

The main character has a back story, a dark background bad parents, this would make the character more believable
#

more AI for enemies, if they get shot they should be more protective and hide more.
#

enemy snipers, not like the one on "Cuban Fodder" (or whatever it's called) but intelligent stealthy snipers.
#

the ability to buy cars, so that you could get somewhere without needing to steal.
#

last but not least the ability to go a different route and live normally, you could get a job, by day and kill by night, or just live by the rules and be able to join the cops, not on vigilante missions but real missions.
#

Multiplayer or online abilities
#

Drivable Trains
#

Jet Ski's
#

the ability to choose your own fate i.e. the outcome of the game by the way you play it do you work for the Cubans or the Haitians you can not work for both.
#

Be able to recruit your own gang members which can help you out on missions
#

Submarines as part of the army *You must be able to steel them*
#

Hovercrafts
#

More access into buildings i.e. can enter normal people's homes
#

The character must be highly trained in some form of martial arts.
#

New weapons must include Lasers and tasers
#

More police interaction with the public (more police pursuits in cars with other people)
#

More complex missions (but keep the run and gun gameplay)
#

Keep a high number of weapons without classes of weapons (I was happier with GTA3 weapons)
#

High and low spots (hills)
#

A more Detroit/New York/LA atmosphere to the city (I hated the happiness in Vice City, it didn't seem right)
#

All The City open from the start! (I like doing missions and getting rewarded with new space to explore, but when I go on a rampage I don't want to hit a limit to my space!)
#

The game to be set in current time! (sorry I am just not liking the 80's)
#

Real crashes (not like the guy has to go to the hospital every car wreak but I want my car to REALLY crash!)
#

Better AI
#

Better Graphics (Maybe hard to do with so much going on at once but R* can do it!)
#

Bigger City
#

More buildings to buy (I would like to run the whole city!)
#

You should be able to do work for some gangs but if you do then other gangs will refuse to give you work.
#

If the main character never speaks like in GTA3 then you should get to choose what they look like.
#

One thing I have never seen, but want, would be a large skid pan and a selection of double-decker buses to use on it (with ex-bus drivers to go under the buses). Some sort of mini-game maybe?
#

trucks with trailers

*

Ability To Enter More Buildings.
*

A place to mod cars with rims, engines, better tires, custom paint jobs, hydraulics, etc.
*

Longer game with a multiplayer mode and jets you can fly.
*

Police on bikes and military in the hunter and a better tank.
*

I think that if they're going to claim population in the millions, there should be more residential-type areas. Some sort of landscaped area with cookie-cutter houses and lawn ornaments ant that sort of thing.
*

Also, better crash physics. Maybe not so the cars get wrecked more easily, but so that they crumple in areas that get hit a little bit better than they do now.
*

More ped skins
*

More main story missions
*

Arcade mini games (pogo the monkey anyone)
*

Main character takes jobs from Tommy or Fido (doesn't matter which).
*

Large land area
*

More indoor areas
*

More hills to jump over (VC was pretty flat)
*

More weapons
*

No more weapon classing
*

Celebrity Voice Actors (I know VC had them, but it be nice to have 'em in GTA4 too).
*

Ability to view cutscenes.
*

Grenade launcher.
*

When you kill A LOT of one gang, they disappear. Only if you have to kill them for missions.
*

I wanna see myself damaged when your in a really really bad car crash, and a country radio station, and a chauffer.
*

Adding to the car crash theme. Better "crunch" noises when you crash. I'm sick of a bump. And air bags would be entertaining to a certain extent.
*

Sensible Swimming
*

Boats used more
*

No stupidly wasted space, like Beaches and a inappropriate huge airport when you can't fly a aircraft which has to take a run up to take off
*

ELEVATION!!
*

Skating and a skatepark
*

Sniping from helicopters
*

Police on bikes + police dogs
*

more crime!
*

Longer missions.
*

More than one level to an island (like SSV in GTA3)
*

Phil.
*

More interactive environment (Walls and buildings get damaged by gunfire and stuff)
*

More stealth and planning needed for missions (not just run in and kill everything, well, not always...)
*

A lot lot lot more cars.
