I know it's an old thread. But I must say, GTA IV multiplayer for me was a horrible experience :tearsofjoy: GTA IV was one of Rockstar's most detailed games to date. But with that, brought horrible lag spikes to my console. I only started to enjoy GTA IV when I installed it on PC. I was able to adjust the settings far more than on console. It was at this moment I started experiencing smoother gameplay, better frames per second and thoroughly began enjoying GTA IV.
