GTA: Grand Theft Auto IV
"GTA 4 and its expansions (Episodes from Liberty City) desperately need a GOG release, especially since these games are plagued by the intrusive SecuROM DRM. To make matters worse, the expansions reportedly have a limited number of installations or activations, which is incredibly restrictive. A DRM-free version would be a much-needed improvement!" hdpcgames.com/gta-iv-pc-game-download/
It likely won't come in because R* also have their own launcher which replaced the social club and GFWL of it.
I understood that buying the Game in the Steam (EGS, Fanatical - Steam, Humble Bundle - Steam, EA, Rockstar) store and enjoying it is better than waiting for it here (gog) for eternity. |||
A lot of games will never be published in the gog store it is a fact! |||
For different reasons many games will never be published in the gog store - fuck_DRM policy (or at least gog trying to pretend to be a DRM-free store), absurd terms of cooperation that gog is pushing, support policy that is completely frustrating and disappointing, and of course non-professional personnel.
I really wish this would happen. The reality is even if they could, they won't release it here. My main guess is piracy.
A very important message, and I hope the team reads it. I dreamed while I was sleeping that I opened your site and saw that you have put the GTA IV game I swear to God, this is what happened to me, and I was very happy in this dream, and unfortunately it became a nightmare when I woke up. In conclusion, I really hope that this dream will come true before I die.
Ten years ago, Shotpun said that GOG is for OLD games, and that we should wait ten years before begging. Looks like it is time, then.
GTA 4
+1 Vote and +1 Comment to support such a Good Game, remember more Votes and Comments to the game = more chances it will be added to GoG Store!
We need it without crappy drm, would be sweet.
GTA IV is the best...
+1, hope that this really cool game will be published in GoG store in 2022! P.S. GoG Team make as much as you can to bring it to GoG store (っ◔◡◔)っ
GTA4 and its expansions (Episodes from Liberty City) in particular really needs a GOG release because these games use the nasty SecuROM DRM. I think the expansion even has a limited number of installations/activations.
one can wish
Nope, now will uses Rockstar Social Club as DRM...
GREAT NEWS!!
GTA 4 has been pulled from Steam due in part to that dreaded GFWL; which raises the possibility of the game being released on GOG!!

Pretty much what DubConqueror said. Its beyond me how they didn't fix all those issues with the last year patch. But removing game music is easy I guess. Damn Rockstar... From what I am seeing its abandoned ware at this point and they would rather want you to spent money on GTA5 and Online. Meh...
Reading the reviews on Steam how it's a very good game to play, but a very bad game software-wise, with the user needing to jump through lots of hoops to maybe get to game to work as it's burdened with DRM, partially half-functional, like Rockstar's Social Club and partially obsolete, like Games for Windows Live, while still needing it to run, plus the problems getting it to run on a modern version of Windows, this game desperately needs a DRM-free version that's made to run on current OS's.
Sadly this is will not happen ever since Rockstar already lost license of most of game's music and replaced with others one so making their own game a travesty of it's former self.
DRM + greedy companies that, instead of removing their games from retail stores, butcher their products retroactively is the worst combination as it gets.
GOG should bring GTA IV Complete Edition to GOG.
I hope they bring this tot GOG and apply some fixes so it can run normal/stable at 60 fps
I love the atmosphere of this game. With all cons of GTA IVm it still better than V in some cases. Hope Rockstar will release remastered version in 2018.
Social Club, outdated GFWL hell, passport account outage .... just to start the game is a nightmare.
Unshackle this game.
How can you love a game made after 1999 that doesn't have checkpoints in missions, lousy controls and dumps you on the other side of the map when the unresponsive controls cause you to fail a mission?
if it crashes it's that your modding is cr£$ (no offense)
I love this game, but I really can't stand how it crashes every 30 minutes. Please, somebody, fix it.
best game in history for me . a "gog edition" is my dream . but the game needs few fixes like :
- only one R* social login when playing in singleplayer
- GFWL removal . GFWL cr%ù is dead let's forget about this once for all
- fix the nasty above 2 gig graphic cards not recognized bug
GTAIV is easliy the worst of the whole series and the reason I have stopped buying GTA games. Utter rubbish.
@Shotpun
If this is just about old games, why are the new games being released on GOG?
Are you kidding me?
If you want this game. go whine about it on Steam.
GoG = good OLD games.
Why don't you just, oh, I don't know, buy the disc?
GOG is a service mainly for games which are rare or buggy on modern machines. GTAIV is fine now. You can beg for it in ten years.
This game is banned in my country because some stupid 19 year old killed a taxi driver. If I can still buy it on gog, then I'm in. Don't worry gog devs. my country is also festered with piracy, you can still get GTA 4 but it's a pirate, and I don't go pirate.
I love this game! A must have on GOG. You guys rule! www.topbulk.org/
Not gonna happen... uses GfWl. End of story.
No way.
So what? Not to play then? + GOG may optimize it.
Really? It's a pretty horrible port...
