Yea, when people talk about what happens in game, The people who are looking forward to it hear it and then are gonna see it coming so they dont get the most out of the game. It doesnt spoil the story but it decreases the overall experience of the game.

Interesting read

ps3.qj.net/

Then there's the deal about Liberty City not having ammunition stores. Imran explains that this particular aspect was decided on by the fact that Liberty City in GTA IV was essentially their own version of New York city, and it wouldn't feel right to have loads of big gun supermarkets all over. Instead, there would be hidden underground gun shops, and it's up to the player to find them.

Also, in a convenient touch, you can buy guns from your friend, Little Jacob, with his own shop being the trunk of his own car. Keep being chummy with him and you'll be able to call him and let him meet you pretty much anywhere, to sell you some firepower on a discounted price. Very convenient indeed.

Gametrailers review which must obviously contain game footage hits gametrailers in 1 day and 15 hours which makes it around 8am Sunday...

Also on region locking:

"Thank you for contacting Play-Asia.com.
No worry, the PS3 system is region free in the sense that any console will
run a PS3 game purchased anywhere in the world. However, please be informed
that your TV/monitor must support NTSC video format for NTSC PS3 games.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
Best regards,
Bryan
Play-Asia.com"

And one more shows that the supposed email is a fake, it is a re-wording of the statement released over a fortnight ago by Rockstar:

"While there are some minor differences between the Australian and US/EU versions, they are not significant and we do not believe they take away from the level of scope and detail that make GTA IV such an incredible experience. We would not release the game in Australia if we believed these differences compromised the quality of the game in any way."

I should have put a "probably will" for lag reasons etc and to combat importing I can see online being region locked. The argument that New Zealand is getting the same version as us because they will play online with us also makes sense (although I'm not sure how the different version would affect online).

I am ordering off Play-Asia anyway, I just online will be region locked.

are you confused between region locked and region coded (ie. NTSC, PAL)? region locked refers to online server connection right?
