We've uploaded a new patch for the PC version of Grand Theft Auto IV which can be nabbed locally from us right here.

The patch spruces up visuals and also attacks crashes and other needed fixes, a few examples of which we've listed below:

- Added "Water Quality", "Shadow Quality" and "Reflection Resolution" sliders in graphics menu.
- Added "Definition" and "VSync" toggles in graphics menu.
- Rendering optimizations.
- Added Commandline "-notimefix" which will help some users who are experiencing the fast/slow gameplay issue after patch 1 was applied.
- Fixed a bug that caused some users to experience endless looping audio effects after Patch 1 was applied.
- Benchmark was disabling sounds after Patch 1 was applied, this is now fixed.
- Unable to load game fixed - For some users, a DOS window would open and close immediately upon Game Launch, GTA IV would never launch.
- Hang on Initial Game Loading Screen fixed - Some users experienced Character Art Loading screens in an endless loop.
- Legitimate players being kicked from Multiplayer matches has been fixed.
- Wireless 360 controllers not functioning - Triggers were full on/off, fixed.

The full list of fixes can be found on the patch download page.

Needs more AA :( Has not really improved anything for me, then again it was problem free before so nothing really there to fix.

patch was welcome, but we still need AA. :|
