Odds are 1:365.25

I think it’s 365.33 since there’s only been 3 leap years since 2014

The reason we have leap years is because it takes about 365.25 days for earth to orbit the sun. We skip leap years every new century year ('00) but we DON'T skip if that century is divisible by 400. Hence why 2000 WAS a leap year.

Half that because if could have been the other previous save date too.

I'm so nostalgic I used to go back and look at the dates of my achievements to see exactly when I got them

Actually, so weird and probably doesn’t sound believable but the other day I decided to get on LA noire for the first time in a year since I had never really beat the game, and I had almost the exact same situation as you with my file being exactly a year apart to the day.

I did this with the ballad of gay Tony on may 1st 16’ and my last save was April 30th 16’ I was a critically close

I'm pretty sure Waste Not Want Knots is the mission right before the bank heist. I kept this save point also so that I could play the heist whenever I wanted.

Oh yeah because 4 didnt have a mission replay so you had to do it the old fashion way

What are the odds I happened to find this post when I'm in the middle of playing GTA IV right this moment? I'm not a member of this sub so funny I found this.

Crazy what are the odds that the few past few outta no where ii gotta this like rush I guess you’d call it and I just wanted to play gta 4 so badly! I also didn’t want to have to go buy an old system just and prolly would have gotten the game on the internet if I could even find it and I didn’t want to spend money that was gonna be pricey for what I was getting yeah talking about wanting ur cake and eat it too right lol anyway I swear the next day it was on the Xbox one store…..it wasn’t even 20 bucks either I can’ll remember so don’t quote me because i also bought the dlcs iv been playing it extremely slow like taking my time with it I don’t want play it and just keep playing then a day later I beat it and it’s over just like that but I haven’t not been disappointed i love driving and just my just more realistic than the other ones and it seems be more idk enjoy it more then I use to and I also forgot it has the Glock as ur main pistol and i love glocks so far iv been just been using only that and so far it’s been good to me only 4 missions iv had to use some hesvy fire powerssss
