What Would The GTA V Trailer Look Like If It Was Remade Using GTA IV?

We’ve already seen the Grand Theft Auto V trailer remade using San Andreas’ game engine and world; now it’s Grand Theft Auto IV's turn to become the platform for remaking the GTA V trailer.

In the latest episode of “the internet is a wonderful place full of creative people,” today we look at what the GTA V trailer would look like if they had made it using the GTA IV engine and game world.

The first thing that will smack you in the face is how much better GTA V looks, although that’s a given, but not just that, the incredible amount of new animations Rockstar’s upcoming blockbuster title actually has is probably the most impressive aspect. While it’s not a like for like copy for obvious reasons – there are no jets in GTA IV, but there are in GTA V – it’s a fine bit of creative spirit and a worthy watch.

Check it out, it’s a great little video.

  • That was just absolutely impressive.
  • not as funny as the san Andreas one, but still good. any chance of a projected release date even if its just a year, like 2013, its the not knowing thats killing me
  • I just hope that GTA V is greatly improved upon. Just couldn't get into the last game. Each to their own though. I knew a fair amount of people that loved it
  • I still want a female to be a main character, but hey I can't complain new GTA :D
  • As long as they bring back tanks I'll be fine. ;)
  • @2 TheHUT is listing GTA V for 23.November 2012 http://www.thehut.com/games/platforms/xbox-360/gta-grand-theft-auto-v-5/10569985.html
  • @6 Rockstar always delays their games at least once, though.
  • That was awesome. I'm a little nervous this is how GTA V will actually look. The animation in the trailer seems other-worldly. Like, impossibly good. We'll see. Very excited!
  • Played the shit out of IV. Looking forward to this.
  • now someone has to do a side by side video just like they did with SA and V, so we can clearly see if theres any improvments
  • lol epic stuff..
  • At times this website is a direct rip off of IGN Impressive video though
  • @#12 - Just a direct rip-off? Damn, we're not trying hard enough then! *facepalm*
  • i hope GTA V doesn't turn out like this also i hope Rockstar would add an Online Free Mode or else i'll wait for the full price to go down.
  • Maybe instead of making videos about the game, they should make THE GAME
  • That was pretty awesome! I loved GTA IV, GTA V will likely be even more amazing.
  • Webb, you're not funny at all. Fail.
  • @# 15 - Rockstar didn't make the video... @# 17 - I wasn't trying to be funny, it's called sarcasm. Here's what it means, because obviously you don't know: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/sarcasm.
  • Can't wait for Bully 2 !
  • Webb crushing trolls like a BAUS
  • Looks impressive. On a side not, im not trying to kiss ass but @17 you should really be treating the mods on this site some respect. Obviously your mother didnt teach you that.
  • Heh. Awesome. Really looking forward to it. As I did every other GTA. Also @21 you either show someone respect, or treat them with respect. "you should really be treating the mods on this site some respect" makes no sense. Clearly your mother didn't teach you how to talk English correctly.
  • i like this site way better than IGN.this is and always will be the only video game site i frequent.Also its the only site I trust for reviews.
  • What @23 said.
  • His comment makes sense to me, maybe your abit slow?
  • The thing I love the most about Rockstar, is the fact that the trailers are always in-game.
  • @25 *you're *a bit slow people in glass houses shouldn't throw rocks.
  • @27 toshay
  • @28 *touche/touché
  • @29 does spelling really matter when it comes to slang?
  • Now now, people. Grammar issues aside, can we please get back on topic now? Thanks =)
  • I think the people will make videos like this just have too much time on their hands it's like they have more than 24 hours in a day
  • Neat stuff, I enjoyed it and I am looking forward to more GTA articles. Watching the video made me want to pop in some GTA IV, as I still need to complete it.
  • @22 clearly YOUR mother didn't teach you not to be an unnecessarily pedantic prat. Fact is that what #21 said was eminently understandable and did make perfect sense, even if it wasn't grammatically correct. Also, surely you should say that the other guy's mum didn't teach him how to USE English correctly? He wasn't talking, was he? Is that pedantic enough for you? Tool.
  • @30 'touché' isn't slang though is it? It's French. And 'Toshay' isn't a word.
  • @22 'Clearly your mother didn't teach you how to talk English correctly.' This sentence does not flow particularly well. I believe using 'speak' instead of 'talk' would be much better terminology. On-topic: I'm impressed, they actually did a pretty good job on making this similar to the GTA 5 trailer, given some of the limitations of the GTA IV engine. It also adds some excellent clarity to the graphical and movement adjustments when people produce these types of videos :) Saying that, I just want to know an official release date already! D:
  • Oh they did improve the graphics. When i looked the first trailer of GTA V i was dissapointed but now seeing it in GTA IV i see they did improve it. Now just hope they will improve the conrols of driving a car and im happy. :D
  • Oh no! The grammar Nazis are here!
  • That was class. Might even get IV back again. Has to be one of the best games out there. Even now.
  • i think I'd better shut up now, every commemnt makes me sound dumber than the last.
  • LOL I love it when the grammar and spelling police are our. OT: Like the San Andreas trailer they made this one also looks brilliant. Roll on GTA V.
  • Why do you have to excite me with that Rockstar logo, making me think there is news about GTA V :( lol :p
  • Aww man, I thought this would be the latest on GTA V, not some kind of "What would it be like?" trailer.
  • @36 thanks for saving me the time there :D OT: when do we think we'll get the Vice City and GTAIII versions of the trailer?
  • I am so excited for this game! and this video was well made combining both games together I can't wait!! :)
  • Wasnt trying to be a smart arse or anything Webb. Just that i read these news feeds first on IGN and then an hour later 360a has the same. And i know most web sites would post this atricle, but at times i feel 360a relies on IGN to discover these topics before you guys post them. That aside i will always love this website.
  • Just guessing i say it will come out this summer. Rockstar never releases a game in the fall. Plus they never show off(heavily promote) a game till it is about 3/4 complete and nearing release( L.A. Noire, Max Payne, GTA IV). Most trailers for L.A Noire came out between the 1-3 months leading up to it's launch. Max Payne is just now being heavily promoted as it nears it's March launch. I think we will see gameplay and a release date at Gamescom, then a heavy promotion period prior to a June-September launch. Only thing that might block this is Max Payne, if they don't want both of their games competeing with each other at the same time.
  • I really love the music for this trailer. OT: Man this shows how amazing GTAV is gonna look
  • Pretty cool how it comes together. Btw people need to chill on this website comparison to IGN. Who gives a shit if the recent news is the same as other websites and there a little late on news. Stop complaining about there news feed and "oh IGN posted this hours ago/I heard this news a week ago". Guess what, not everyone has gone to other websites to look up stuff.. God forbid there an hour late on releasing details., I hands down will take this website over IGN any day. The reviews, forums and community itself is far better in my opinion. If a comment asks "you mad bro?" A little.
  • Came for the video, stayed for the comments. You guys are great.
  • @51, that's what I do. It's hilarious watching these monkeys throw their shit at each other.
  • This site is NOTHING like IGN, for instance whereas IGN's rating scale for all games starts at 7/10, x360a actually will give games a negative review when they deserve it.
  • this site is and always has been the nuts when it comes to anything 360, but the shining jewel in the crown of 360 org? the playground inspired your momma so poor insults that fly about because of a difference in opinion grammar error spelling mistake etc, it truly makes my day each and every day to sit down and read the insult wars, truly great piss myself laughing every time (i aint even watched the video just came for the dubs) to the mods can you dedicate a forum just for people to rip the shit out of each other? i think it would go down well (everyone has a sense of hunour) and it might help keep the comments on track (insert pot kettle black)
  • pretty good...hope the games better than the last
  • @48 I think you're a bit mistaken friend, GTAIII, Vice City, and San Andreas were released in October. Its been a long running thing for Rockstar. Even the Original release date for IV was sometime in Oct. til it got pushed back six months to April. No big deal or nothin but if I were you I would keep my fingers crossed for Oct 2012 otherwise it might be another delay or... *Shudders* an Oct. 2013 release date. Cue the horror movie screaming.
  • I'm sooooo loving GTA5! Already buying it, since I already got Gta 4 for black friday
  • Anyone else heard about the rumor this is a download game only!? If so rockstar can stick it.
  • I hope they bring back tanks and have a bigger world again. GTA IV did start to get a bit dull after a while (after SA's massive world) being just in the city :/ Tbh i'd prefer worse graphics and a bigger map
  • yeah . . . this came out a long time ago . . . yep
  • @57 You do realize 5 isn't out for another year almost...?
  • @45 Happy to help! :') I'm more of a grammar vigilante than a grammar Nazi. Yeah, it sounds a tad cliched, but meh, sue me.
  • Gosh this trailer reminds me of how horrible the GTA graphics are and see the GTA V trailer I'm not blown away Im like errrr same old.....
  • I still play GTA4, TLaD and TBoGT
  • @63 I'm very curious to see your idea of good graphics if you don't consider GTA's good.
  • @22 I dislike ppl like you.
  • Lol at the reaction I got. Nice one guys, keep it up!
  • cant wait for the new GTA ..GTA 4 didnt really like the main character that much niko belic !
  • gta iv gets boring after a while, can't wait for gta v
