Classic GTA San Andreas Screenshots

June 10, 2005

@illspirit: Any reason why this topic was unpinned? I might have to take back my glowing thanks! We've already got over 4,000 views on this topic - more than many of the already pinned topics.

So was it pinned at any time? I just figured either illspririt forgot to do it something like that.

Yeah it was pinned for a while this afternoon and then I just notice it had been unpinned.

This topic really should be re-pinned.

If dome piece gets his screenshots thread pinned, than why shouldn't sip.
¢$¢

Dome Piece's thread, guess where it's located? General discussion! Not specifically console-related, it's handily there in general discussion for all queries! So you'd think people would have sense to know that photos would go there...

BUT we have the problem of there being a noticible devide in opinion. Many want segregation to take place so folk can appreciate their PC and Xbox pictures more without having to also see PS2 SA pics. So you have this topic here! This of course means that you'll also have your own video topic, bang goes that idea by the mods and admins to have the general discussion SAT topic to have PC and Xbox videos too, seems the PC-guys are too good for that

There's no specific reason for this to be pinned. You'll know that it'll stay on the front page of this topic anyway with people posting a brilliant picture of a traffic light or something anyway...

So that's all you came in here to say? That topic was pinned back where the was ONLY the PS2 version. And it certainly IS console related - and could only be to the PS2 until Tuesday!

We have the sense to know that PC shots are different enough from PS2 shots that we don't want to sort through grainy low res PS2 pictures to see the kind of quality represented here.

It logically follows that since video from PC's have the capacity be much higher quality and directly captured much easier, that a specific PC topic for videos would makes sense as well. But we can cross that bridge when we come to it.

Almost sounds like you're irritated we PC users got better graphics and want to show them off to each other. The presentational difference between the PS2 and the PC is certainly great enough to warrant a separate PC/Xbox forum, so why not threads devoted to showing off the greatest difference between them. It's not like we're cluttering up the General forum with this - it's right where it belongs.

Of course, this is just MHO as well.

WE WANT A RE-PIN!

The mods and admins (apart from illspirit it seems ) were apparently wanting Xbox and PC vids to be in amongst the PS2 videos in the SAT in general discussion. BUT I didn't want this before, saying it should be PS2-only. So I'm actually encouraging things to stay here, don't worry! I'm milking it for all it's worth, and then some!

And I'm mad as Hell as I was gonna get the PC version as well, but I only have a 64MB graphics card - which at best suits minimum requirement, and we all know playing San An on minimum requirement will be like a crime against Rockstar I am encouraging PC screenshots and I want the PC photographers to exploit the graphics for all they're worth!

So should general discussion be re-named then, or what?

Errmm.... I've been playing this game for eight hours nonstop.

@BCspeed34 - I've got a Radeon 9600XT.

Dunno... I think they just looked nice.

I have a small request: can someone please post an overhead view of CJ' hood (Grove St.), possibly taken at sunset or dusk? (I'd like to make a WP out of it).

cheers, jools
