GTA V Megathread *READ OP*

Looks ridiculous.

I'm sure that was running on a specialized rig to make it seem as fluid as possible.

You don't sell products running them on toasters.

Apparently it was on PS3...

More than likely running on a development PC to keep the framerate consistent. Some of the physics effects like the breaking wall look insane and more next gen than current gen.

Any word on PC release date?

If anyone can pull off that technical level of achievement, it's Rockstar. Just look what they coaxed out of the PS2 with San Andreas.

Don't see any reason to disbelieve them when they say it's PS3 footage.

They're currently hiring programmers for the PC port. It's on their site somewhere

Azza

There hiring programmers at Rockstar leads "to bring its latest titles to PC", it doesn't mention GTA 5 per say, but considering it is the latest title and following the track record of releasing the PC version several months after the console version I'd say its a solid bet. I'm just hoping against hope that Red Dead Redemption shows up as well. :P

We'll have to wait and see how the framrate holds up. The GTA games usually suffer from awful tearing and frame rate problems.

this game is my game of the year

**** what i said about the last of us

Yakult

I'm so pissed that I have to purchase a console to play this or else wait for the PC release date, which I won't be able to do judging by clips so far. BAH! Worth it I bet.

The Freeman

it loks like the same engine they used for the max payne 3 game from last year so i would be optimistic, it was a very smooth engine and no clear framerate/tearing issues, the game on the other hand was not very good.

Same here, i have to purchase one soon, hopefully there will be a deal on the xbox 360 and the game, not going to go for the ps3.

I remember some of the GTS's on the PS2 was horrendous for it

Because they've put in preorders for expensive new consoles when there's going to be nowt to play on them for at least 6months except Ryse and Killzone and FIFA with slightly more detail on the players' shirts. This is the best time for the current gen.

Apologies for interrupting your misinformation, but all these games are confirmed as day one release titles for the PS4, Fifa is also getting a fairly big overhaul.

Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
Battlefield 4
Call of Duty: Ghosts
DC Universe Online
Diablo 3
DriveClub
FIFA 14
Just Dance 2014
Killzone Shadow Fall
Knack
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes
Madden NFL 25
NBA 2K14
NBA Live 14
Skylanders: Swap Force
Warframe
Watch Dogs


If you don't want/can't afford the console at launch that's fair enough, but making things up is silly.

GTA 5 is looking pretty awesome. The PS3 is still an impressive piece of tech. PES 2014 is looking good too.
I was planning on gifting my PS3 this Christmas, but the PS4 being not backwards compatible throws a spanner in that. I'll still buy it at launch though, my coin jar is for PS4, GTA 5 and PES 2014.

dreamers75

Looks good but strange seeing so much of the game before its released.

Hehe, i make a glib throwaway comment and you feel compelled to post all this? Man, how sad are you..

It's two sentences and a bunch of copy paste, if you think that takes effort then you're a very lazy individual.

I'll put you in the "can't afford" category for that reason.

Its the whole tone of your post, not the amount of content...that it actually bothered you to the extent that you'd respond so haughtily, and with a snotty "cant afford" implication (cause you know poor people are all jealous of your preorder naturally).

As it happens, i can afford a ps4, but i dont mind which category you put me in...

Calm down it's not even out yet!!


It does look damn impressive though. It's like a masterful mix of all the best games rockstar has ever brought out;

The fun, scale and customisation of SA
The attention to detail of IV
Red Deads wildness
Midnight Clubs driving
Max Paynes gun-play and tight controls
LA Noires open approach to missions (I know R* didn't develop it)

This will deliver!

I believe Sony has exclusivity on an official bundle, but you might find unofficial Xbox ones

Hopefully it won't have the series' traditionally mind numbing onslaught of identikit fetch missions...

Which version is likely to be best, 360 or PS3? Apparently the footage is PS3.

My hunch from previous open-worlder experience would be that PS3 will look better, but Xbox will be less buggy. So I'll go with Xbox personally, my eyesight's not great anyway.

That's mental that's its running on ps3, didn't expect it to look that good. Cant wait until September.
