    For all those that have played gta4, the thought of a machinima may have popped in your head. im sure it will to alot of it's players. It has as much potential to almost beat halo's because:
    Customizable charector (not in armor) with gender
    the ENTIRE city
    traffic on, in halo it would take many to simulate one
    many cars and helicopters (i remember a airport with 4+ attack choppers)
    peds for a more city like appearence

    i think you all catch my drift by now

    I agree. Now then, time to wait and see what masterpieces (or masterdisasters) people create for our viewing pleasure/horror.

    The trouble with creation of GTA Machinima's is that such an endeavor would require some sort of third party capture device, and would be dependant on civilians (Or police, if you want them to be involved) not screwing things up. I know that there's been many times when I've been driving through Liberty City and some asshat cut me off

    If only they would have added screenshot and save-film capabilities to the game, then it would be easy. Also, no custom game-type or forge-like mode where you can float around and create stuff.

    IMHO every game should have a forge mode.

    ^agreed!^
    GTA4 could turn out some cool machinimas, but they would require letterboxing and stuff and it would be hard to get me my cool camera angles. :(
