Hey all. For whatever reason, I'm looking to play Grand Theft Auto IV with some friends. Problem is, none of my Xbox Live friends have it. Does anyone on here have it and feel like going into Party Mode to blast up the city?  My Gamertag is:

RockLegend28

P.S.
I also have it on PC, but I can't get it to run very well. If you have any advice on making it run better, please tell me. Thank you!

P.P.S.
I know this probably isn't the part of the forum this request should be posted in, but I thought it would get more notice here than in The Arena.

I believe you needed one heck of a CPU at the time to make the game playable, and even then it would put nearly max load on the CPU. It might be better if played on a modern PC today. Very poorly ported game.

Yeah it wasn't my rig it was the port. I think it must have been driver related. That same PC still runs new games on high somehow, I can't figure the thing out. Guess it just goes to show how slow graphics development has gotten. It's an aging Intel QQ6600 2.6ghz quad core (i think it's called that) with an Nvidia 8600GTS and it is still baller as shit for god knows why. Ran Max Payne 3 better than Max Payne 2...Some games are just terribly optimized.

GTA IV was very processor heavy, as well as video card dependent.  I was messing around with it a while back, using some of the enb mods like iCEnhancer, car mods,  and HD texture mods.  It was pretty taxing on my PC  even before the mods.  While it made the game very photorealistic, it also made my rig scream like a banshee.  That was running an overclocked Intel i5 750 at 3.2ghz, 8GB of RAM and a Radeon HD 5850 1GB.
