Ridin' the Nightrain Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I've been watching a few of the GTA4 videos on the official site tonight. Bit slow on hearing it was updated.I really, REALLY want one or two in-game videos because I'm confused about the graphics of this game. Sometimes it looks amazing and sometimes it looks rather shoddy. I understand that a free roaming game set in such a giant world isn't going to rival something like Gears etc and I'll always take lesser graphics for less pop-up and slowdown, but I do want it to look better than some of the screens have suggested. I'm trying not to get my hopes up for it too much, to be honest. Rockstar have never been great when it comes to the technical side of things. They know what's fun and they have great self-awareness but who can say GTA3, VC or SA were good looking games that ran as well as they should have? Liars, that's who. With this being the next-gen it needs to be real polished otherwise I can see myself not enjoying it as much as I should. I mean, fuck, this is GTA4! I really don't want technical issues to distract me away from the experience they're trying to create. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunkyMonk Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Would it be worth picking up a Xbox 360 for just GTA 4 when it comes out? It seems like a waste of money...but the GTA's are just the best games you can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like a waste of money...but the GTA's are just the best games you can get.If you're getting a console JUST for GTA4.Get a PS3.As the world is pretty much moving on to Blu-Ray rather than HD-DVD, you're essentially upgrading your DVD player as well.Also there's the fact that, the current Blu-Ray players are 1.0, or at best, version 1.1.The PS3 is also this, but has the capability to upgrade to Blu-Ray 2.0 Stand-alone Blu-Ray players cannot do this.So even if you got an Xbox 360 for GTA 4Then got a Blu-Ray player, you'd end up getting rid of it for Blu-Ray 2.0.Although there is the subject of what the big difference is between 1.1 and 2.0and sadly, that's not alot.

FunkyMonk Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 (edited) Yeah but the whole thing would be that a 360 would be like $500 cheaper than a PS3, so if I got a PS3 for GTA, then I'd essentially be paying $800 for it instead of $400. Plus the 360 can be chipped (or a similer process/outcome), which could come in quite handy and work out rather cheaper. I don't know about the different graphics between the two though...

I don't know about the different graphics between the two though...PS3 / $400.....GTA 4 / $60.....Together $460....So...how are you getting $500 cheaper when with both of those things, with whatever tax, you´re hardly spending $500 off the bat...

So it's at least a saving of $300 if I got a 360. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I think they only sell the ps3 as bundles down there. I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrubs Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 If you get it for the 360, you can also get the two exclusive downloadable 'episodes' which adds on to the game. (Microsoft paid $50 mil for them)I use to get GTA for the ps2, but because of that I think I may buy it for the 360. Or maybe I'll get it for both.April 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sandman Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I'll purchase the PS3 sometime, because there is nothing worse than trying to play GTA without the PS controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
