#4 Worst Game of 08

It warrants its position on the list. However, they missed a few key things:

  • Silly file protection that does nothing except interfere with modding
  • Lack of SLI support
  • Poor range of in-game settings
  • Poor graphics optimization (or lack thereof)
  • Poor use of CPU threading
I could go on, but there are so many problems, it's just not worth listing them all.

 

 

And the title of this thread is MISLEADING. They didn't say it was the #4 worst-game of the year, it is the fourth most DISAPPOINTING game of the year. Hardly the game thing.

Well some one that can edit it can gladly go and change it to that if they want, that is fine. TBH I think they didn't tear it a new ass because of fear of backlash. Look at all the back lash just in here LOL.

I totally agree with that review, the game is awesome, however R* Social Club and Windows Live Gaming suck something fierce.

The justice has been done.

 

Now I doubt the next GTA will be ported to the PC. Oh sh*t.

IV PC is far better than SA anyway. But you get bored after playing it for a while. SA doesn't let THAT happen.

I have been enjoying Multi player lately. I beat the game already even though it took me alot longer with the system reboots and all, I did actually manage to beat it though.

This game works perfectly on both my laptop and my desktop, the laptop took some time messing with drivers etc tho.

 

Both systems have excellent FPS.

 

Desktop is

 

QX6700

4gb DDR2 1066hz Corsair Ram

BFG O/C 280GTX

 

Laptop is

 

DELL XPS M1730

C2D X6800 2.8ghz

8800GTX SLI

 

I would suggest all those who dont have it running properly spend a little more time trying different drivers etc........I almost gave up on my Laptop at one point, it was only because of the monster spec and the fact it runs on my desktop I pusued the correct drivers.

 

Greets....

 

 

Mark..

 

 

( I have this game on my PS3 also, and prefer it on the PC tbh )

 

Edit spelling !! lol

Nah they say use 8.12 and 8.12 it is. If they want to change their story then I will try something else. I shouldn't have to waste my time figuring out what actually works with their crappy coding. I haven't had to watse my time with other games like that why start now.
