ZiRoUK Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 (edited) I've been silently watching the forum for a week or so now. 1) I am concerned about the graphics - I honestly think the building textures look crap. I'm just giving +1 to the peeps who share my concern, but i'm not moaning and it is real. Do not tell me the graphics are great or 'wrong', there is clearly an valid concern for some people regarding the quality of the building textures. Everyone is allowed an opinion. 2) Who gives a flying f*ck about which console is best? Both are capable games consoles, capable of playing GTA IV. Yes the xbox has DLC, but at least the playstation doesn't have RROD. The PS3 might have Blue-Ray out of the box but 360 has a far better set of titles. What do I own? You guess. Constantly deepthroating other fanbois with your opinion isn't going to make them bend over and take it in the ass. Note to 360 owners, don't create threads talking about how great the DLC content is and give PS3 owners the 'up yours' - PS3 owners will likely be jealous of the DLC (who doesn't want extra gameplay?) - Just remember Microsoft spent £20mil on game content, not fixing the RROD issue. PS3 owners do want that DLC, of course they do, everyone knows it - they don't have it - how would you like it the other way round? Treat people how you would LIKE to be treated in the reverse instance.. 3) The Social Club will open when it opens. 4) Your copy will be delivered when your chosen shop dispatches it, even if you get in the begining of May it is not the end of the world - no matter how much you whine and bitch on the forum it ain't coming any faster. That goes for me too and I'm king of the whiners when a i'm waiting for something. If you chose the wrong shop to order from (HMV) - that's your fault - who buys games from HMV anyway? 5) We're all here to have fun, not whine/bitch/contest. Lets take this release and talk about the good times we have, discuss concerns by we have, we don't need to moan or whine, it's just a drag on everyone - I tell my girlfriend that every time. Women moan, Gentlemen discuss. Women are opinionated, Gentlemen are objective. Discuss with a clear objective, Don't moan that 'lesser beings' won't take your opinion in the ass and call it their own. Now, Lets all sit back in our chairs and smile - GTA4 is just around the corner and every single one of us is going to enjoy it in our own time - the months of waiting will be over and we can all enjoy it even more without threads moaning/whining/bashing.

Yeah, when I see how realistic the people and cars move, and how sweet the atmosphere is. But it wont be because of the straight up graphics. Not like it matters. GTA was never about graphics.

I feel compelled to tell you that the newer 360s have already fixed the RRoD because of a new chip dye. so yeah they spent all that cash on DLC, but the newer consoles are fixed, and if your older console breaks, they'll send you a new one. 3)So true, but I can't help but wait on the edge of my seat, dunno why. 4)so true again. 5) EXACTLY Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/327758-my-thoughts/#findComment-1057831049 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WastedEngland Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 With The Useless+irrelevant topics I Think its just boredom and lack of using the search function really. These next 2 weeks are probably going to feel like the longest 2 weeks since the game was announced (well almost, when the delay was announced it felt like it was going to take an eternity) Where the graphics are concerned i pretty impressed with what rockstar has done, when you imagine the scale of liberty city and how its all going to be streamed with no loading screens after the initial start up its quite remarkable, i'd rather have the detail focoused on Niko, the weapons and the vehicles than the buildings that il be passing in police chases and whatnot.

lloydo Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Some may say im crazy, but i wouldnt mind playing another new GTA game with the old graphics, they were cheap and crap but thats what made GTA GTA!

ZiRoUK Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 I just wanted to give a bit of support to the people being moaned at because they aren't shouting about how great the graphics are. I'm in the same cart. I don't think they're particularly awe inspiring but i've already said i'm sure we'll be fine when we're running around blowing sh*t up.
