June issue of Play Magazine (UK) is now on!

[Asif]

Huge props to Matty's blog. Scroll a little down to GTA IV magazines. Download link to the scan is available there.

(Gotta read that now, I'll edit this post later :p)

Edit-1: Before I could finish the download, the file was taken off the server!

Edit-2: Scans are now put up at here.

Edit-3: Heh, the preview didn't turn out to be that interesting that I thought would be. Anyway, some facts they are claming are...

- Niko is thousands of dollars in debt and gangsters are after him.
- Possibility of planes is refused here as well, helicopters might be in the game.
- Niko's mobile phone might play role as another mode of receiving missions. He can receive text messages and take photos with the built-in camera.

However, the July issue will be available to buy on 14th June, might expect some interesting things there.

I CAN'T ACTUALLY HOST THE MAGAZINE SCANS ANYMORE BECAUSE OF COPYRIGHT LAWS, BUT IF YOU DO REQUIRE MAGAZINE SCANS THEN PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME:

. If you have them already Asif wanna post them up somewhere else? heh

[Asif]

The download was cut at 78% Now I know the reason why!
I am emailing him right now.
Edit: Edited the first post with link to the Scans.

Thanks, Asif. Not much here, but it's better than nothing.

I'm pretty sure helicopters are confirmed though. Absolutely no air travel would eliminate the player's free roaming capabilities and wouldn't be able to explore the "new" Liberty City more in depth/quickly.

Edit: According to his blog..

GTA IV super exclusive preview next month on 14th June 2007

Looks like we're about a month away from some big details!

[Himuro]

Yeah right. I bet it's a retread of the other info.

[monkio]

and once again, we commence the wait for the next ounce of information.

[Asif]

There are 2 more previews to come in the mean time: GamesMaster UK (6 June) and PSM3 UK (7 June).
Play mag's July issue may lose some heat by then, as I reckon most treats for next month will be given out by these two upcoming previews.

[Himuro]

I expect July or August to be the next time we get MAJOR GTAIV updates.

Which we will all greatly appreciate, because it will be the last.

[Slim Trashman]

I'd more expect internet previews to contain the huge updates and information.

Could you link me to the source for this? I'll need more info before I add to the Forum Guide thread.

[Asif]

The dates are listed on the main page of his blog.

[Slim Trashman]

Ah, alright. Much thanks to you, Asif. Would like to actually know his sources as well. I trust him, but I'd just like something more to link those to in the Forum Guide thread.

[Asif]

I wish I could tell. He does have some good connections.

[washablemarker]

Look at their natty threads, they're all different. Which shows us that you won't be bumping into (and murdering) the same people over and over again.

is that really a loose thread? and i can't believe they said he sounds a little like borat. that is bullshit. he's friggun eastern european, not middle eastern.
