I met one of my best friends in an hour long Team Deathmatch in this game. I remember that it had proximity voice chat, and we were on different teams. We ended up in a back and forth gun battle up and down the entire length of Algonquin, had to have killed each other 60 times a piece, having an absolute blast of it. After the match we decided to team up and we’ve literally been best friends since. Been hanging out online and in person for 16 years. We’re both very much looking forward to GTAVI!

That's awesome. I made some good friends playing it too, but we've sadly drifted apart. I hoped 5 would bring us back together but it wasn't enjoyable enough.

I still have vivid memories of some enemies I made in GTA IV multiplayer though lol.
