TheMightyEthan Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) The resolution could just be an artifact of the news sites' images, not necessarily the resolution it was actually rendered at, and shadows and textures could just be the result of the game being limited by the consoles and the PC port not being appropriately beefed up (because that's never happened before...)

Faiblesse Des Sens Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 So... where are the 1080p screenshots? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 idk, but there's way too much antialiasing for those to be 360 shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faiblesse Des Sens Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Specifically this one: I would assume the post-processing is heavy in this one. GTA screenshots have always looked better than the actual games. Hell, that shot in particular looks to be a cut above the other screenshots. http://www.rockstargames.com/V/ Just look at the last two. Suddenly, the game isn't looking like some graphical masterpiece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangelove Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 I still can't get over GTA4. I still hold a personal grudge. How many years has it been since it came out? 5? It was the first game I bought that I thought was bad. Not just bad, but terrible. I paid 60 bucks on release day. It still stings. RDR deserved a sequel more than this thing. Too bad it's not nearly as popular. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 I really really liked GTA 4. But I agree I'd rather see an RDR sequel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomTervo Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Nah, I know bro. More just irritated with the classic slow slog of PR info release Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 GTAV officially got a Spring 2013 release date, but no mention of PC in the official release. That bodes ill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldorf and Statler Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 They're not gonna wait too long for the PC version seeing how new consoles are most likely to be announced summer time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 I think given how GTA IV came out they want to make sure all is well before releasing it out on PC. I doubt they'll neglect it altogether though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayc4life Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 I think they learned their lesson with Max Payne 3: Get it out on PC early and people will still buy it. If it's not a simultaneous PC release, it'll be at most within 2 months, I'd bet. Either way, it's the usual April/May Rockstar release that's been par for the course this generation (GTA4 was April, Red Dead Redemption, LA Noire and Max Payne 3 were all May, iirc). Game Informer announcing an 18-page feature bonanza this coming issue pretty much confirmed it before the pre-order posters even needed to.

Eleven Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 (edited) I'm eagerly anticipating an Apple-like company in the GTA world. I sure hope we hear ads on the (in-game) radio, or TV! Edited October 31, 2012 by eleven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayc4life Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 (edited) GTA4 already had the iFruit Phone. Edited October 31, 2012 by jayc4life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 lol! I don't even remember that! Probably because I wasn't an Apple user back then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 I imagine it'll be much further played upon this time. iPhone was relatively new back during GTAIV development. The phone in use within the game is still and old fashioned bar phone with buttons n such (SR3 brings in a smartphone). Quite a lot changed between then and now actually (of which the recession seems to be the biggy of GTAV) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 SR2 had a smartphone as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Been a while since I've played SR2. Main point was given the features of current games, expect a smartphone. Wouldn't be surprised if it comes with some games built in it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 I haven't played SR2, but I really liked the use of the smartphone in SR3. I felt it was a really good way to provide you with a very computery menu without breaking you out of the game world. It didn't scream "NOW YOU'RE LOOKING AT GAME OPTIONS BECAUSE YOU'RE PLAYING A GAME" it was just "now you're looking at your phone". GTAIV was similar, but IIRC they didn't use it for as much.
