So this is GTA San Andreas, re-skinned with GTA IV textures, on the GTA III map. This is amazing.

This is what happens when you drag the GTA4 icon on to GTASA

GTA IV's textures, San Andreas' engine, and III's map. I gotta give it to the Russians for crafting this masterpiece.

I love "I don't read Russian" instead of of "I can't read Russian" because it implies Joel thinks for some reason Russian is not worth reading so he refuses.

This is the kind of game they use for "leaked" GTA 6 screenshots.

the real gta exists somewhere but we've all only ever played very high quality bootlegs

4:59 - “Developed by Alexander Blade” - If that’s the same Alexander Blade I’m thinking of, that’s pretty neat - for those not in the know, Alexander Blade is the developer of Script Hook V, which is essentially one of the most important plugins you need to run mods in GTA V’s single player!

It's really funny how back in the day people modified the animations to simulate ragdoll physics, nowadays GTA San Andreas has functional ragdoll physics mods to some extent which is pretty impressive

Grab That Auto IV, finally on PC!

I'm pretty sure the mod creators just made it so when you bump into someone it plays a falling animation to simulate pushing them aside, but they didn't account for people just standing right next to the NPCs. They also probably stole a GTA SA to III conversion and then changed the textures, judging by the HUD messages calling him Claude.

"We want more GTA4 episodes!!" "hahaha ok"

hwat if yuo want go heaven but god said "Faind the gands"

As a Russian, I want to state that I had a personal copy of liberty san. When I was a child, I asked my mother for a new year's gift copy of gta 4, but for the new year I saw liberty san

I'm convinced Russian bootleggers make games by typing a bunch of spaghetti code in Microsoft paint and praying to the Machine Spirit

The best part of the description at 1:20 is "this is the same exact GTA IV, just with less system requirements"

I shit you not there is a total conversion called GTA Serbia. I wish Joel would try it for all the cheeky breeky meme potential

30:15 a real *blast* from the past.

Soap Police makes everyone slip, even himself.

It somehow manages to be very impressive and complete garbage at the same time.

47:28 I am just TICKLED at knowing that Joel likes my music!

The player character is Niko "Claude" Johnson

"what is this?" "Peeko?" "Whatever it is, its making me drive bad." "Its vtuber stuff." *SKIPPED*

"Peeko" - Joel, 2021

Joel's custom radio comes with 3 different kinds of songs. 1 Persona music. 2. Nintendo music. 3. Meme music.

17:15 Leaked recording of Todd Howard from when he was developing Skyrim.

Joel: "hey let's import the GTA4 playlist so we can actually listen to something" also Joel: "nope can't play that because of dmca" every two seconds

So the description on the back says: "GTA Libery San IV is a mod for GTA 4. Completely replaced transportation and the city. A lot of changed textyres and effects make this game more interesting. If you've had enough of the standard GTA, this one's for you. So basically it is the same GTA 4 but with fewer system requirements."

40:58 OKAY WHO WAS THE "FUNNI RABBIT HAHA LAUGH" GUY WHO ADDED THIS INTO THE MIX WHAT A MADLAD 41:17 *P i k o*

Love how Joel just says "sorry to hear that" when chat complains lol.

Holy crap I want it. They actually made a downgraded GTA 4 in the SA engine. Or upgraded the GTA3 engine.

"Vtuber stuff? Ok" *skips song* Incredibly based.

damn gta 4 remaster for PS5 look pretty great

If anyone's wondering why the VOD is gone, there was a bit of an ACCIDENTE with the Wish Dumpster Diving in the same stream. For once, it's not the music industry's fault.

33:54 was the funniest shit i´ve ever seen, i literally died when he crashed and the music stopped

God damn. This is kind of impressive to be honest. Grove Street Games could learn a thing or 2 from this.

THIS WAS SOMEONE'S FAVORTE GAME! Remember that phrase, because we all know Joel will say it.

Rockstar be like: GTA IV Remastered Definitive Edition

Ah yes Pikora, the lidl version of Pekora

33:08 Please welcome the game director of Bethesda game studios, Todd Howard!

Oh shit, I thought I won't be able to watch it since it's gone from Twitch

40:58 Pain-peko

This is what playing GTA in a dream would be like.

*H A V I N G A C H I L D*

Ugh, those "ragdoll" "physics" are really bringing up my memories of when I installed a "ragdoll" mod and every time I "ragdolled" was the exact same animations.

30:40 That "YEAH!" was perfectly timed with the cop car flying over Joel.

I've been rewatching the Cotton-Eye Joe part over and over for like 20 minutes now and I keep laughing at it. Why is Joel so blessed with comedic timing in GTA games?

There's only one other person that needs to play this and his name is radal

Holy shit, I played this mod as a kid. I can't find it anywhere on the internet, all the links are dead. Joel, can you please upload it for us?

33:08 how I see myself dying in 20 years

"Games for windows" was a huge thing back in the 2000s. I owned a legit(pirated) dark souls game. I also had gta san andreas naruto from this company

47:28 Oh hell yeah, hedgehog stew by iteachvader, ahah~ That guy makes some hilarious ytp and boppin music, ha

Fell in love with it at the first minute. Reminds me of unpatched RDR where you could ride people instead of horses.

I got gnomed first time this year, let this be a warning message everyone

Actually, none of the "Persona Music" came from Persona, and I know some of them were from the depth of TOOHOO fandom. 22:11 36:46 These are from Len'en, a series heavily inspired by Touhou. 41:32 This one is from a Touhou fangame, Hollow Song of Birds. I intentionally sent songs from obscure games for good chuckle or some shit, but turns out I was the one ended up laughing, because of how the chat kept calling them Persona Music.

F A I N D T H E K A N E A N D K 1 L L H I M

If anyone's interested, the translated description on the back of the cover: GTA Liberty San IV is a mod of GTA 4. Fully changed traffic and city. !Large amount of changed textures and other visual effects make the game more interesting... If someone is bored with the standard GTA. This is for you!!!Essentially this is the same GTA 4 but with lower system requirements.

Play gta 4 again chum dumpster

2:10 Damn Niko got us with that 👌

His name is Claude, he's dressed like Niko, he sounds like CJ, he's the best super hero

1:49 BTW up until like 2010s or something Russia had very lax age rating policies regarding video games. This is a bootleg with random .png slapped on top, of course, but back when Postal 2 came out it had an official release with full translation/dub that had 14+ on the box.

Fake GTA is 12+ Miitopia is 18+ ...yeah, that'll do!

Joel + bootleg GTA = perfection

I can't believe we got this for free. I would've paid charity money for this much bootleg!

11:11 so apparently you have to smash the car window to open the door by the handle? Seems legit I guess

"We really tried to get this working badly!" Well, you got it to work really badly, so it was successful? :P

"more persona music? okay!" *immediately switches to gorillaz*

The amount of times I teared up laughing at 6:27 is-

I should really learn not to watch Joel while eating or drinking, I swear I almost choked so many times.

Get the automobile 5

Man, I'd give anything to see this VOD with chat.

"To stop Claude entering a car.." Niko: Am I a joke to you?

it's beautiful

great stream, vinesauce ian. can't wait for your next stream, ian.

As far as gta sa bootlegd go, this is crazy impressive

Every time it crashes, it looks like it's trying to play a sound file that doesn't exist. Didn't you say that you deleted all the Russian voice-clips?

Two words I never thought I would hear together. “Existential Jizz” thank you Joel

1:14:25 cured my depression!

"Okay, let's do a mission" *proceeds to spend the next hour trying to trigger the same janky ragdoll physics*

Бля ему надо в ГТА Купянск сыграть СРОЧНО!!!!!

41:54 "Give me something good goddamnit" HOW DARE YOU

The back of the box says: GTA Liberty San is a mod of GTA IV. Total transport and city redesign, an abundance of modified textures and other visual FX makes the game more engaging. If anyone is bored with the original GTA, then this is for you!!! In essence it is the same GTA IV, only with less demanding system requirements. Full Russian and English version. Mimimal System Requirements: CPU: Pentium 4/Athlon XP 2GHz RAM: 512 MB GPU: A 3D-accelerator with 128 MB of memory Disk Space: 7 GB on hard drive **It seems whoever wrote this were not native Russian speakers. Grammar structure is a bit off, likely a product of machine translation/poor interpreting skills. Or maybe they were just illiterate, who knows.

41:00 he doesn't know Also, p e e c o

Every time Joel called a Touhou track "Persona music", I died a little inside. ʸᵉˢ ᴵ ᵏⁿᵒʷ ᶦᵗ ʷᵃˢ ᵃ ʲᵒᵏᵉ Edit: Or was it? Goddammit Joel

I copied and paste the description on google and ohhh mama I got some stanky results

Well, as a russian i can surely say this at least "has" what it implies. There were a lot of games in both real stores and on torrents with stuff like, GTA Naruto Shippuden or Need For Speed F&F and many many other mashup shit, but for the most part the mods in there either didn't work or they just lied about it being different

45:41 it's like Cj's having an existential crisis and Claude's his therapist

When he says “Liberty San” I can’t help but die because it sounds similar to “Samity Sam”

56:57 Nightcore skeleton killer is a work of art!

1:13, Joel gives the first beat of Megalovania. Please, edit this into joelalovania

I love how the chat knows who is Pekora, im so proud of this community

for those wondering, any GTA stream is banned on twitch if you use the radio.

Well I’m a bit of a BILP myself, Peter

to find a torrent of this would be cool.

Don’t buy no GTA IV from no gas station

Says "let's gain high speed"; Proceeds to crashing into things before even gaining any actual speed.

41:29 pain peko

That ending is beautiful, if you just stumbled upon this then please watch the whole thing

18:46 if you were super drunk in Russia, and you were given- ... ... G I L F

Joel, try setting the System Locale to Russian to hopefully play this without crashes. Even better is use the UTF-8 worldwide feature of Windows 10's Administrative Language so you can play non-unicode programs in your language of choice.

Each GTA bootleg is so fascinating to watch.
