  1. 1. Do you believe that we'll get a simultaneous release with the next GTA title?

    • Yes, I also think men are from Mars and Women are from Venus.

    • Yes, I think that by this time we have shown R* our level of devotion to the series on PC... It would be about god damn time.
      15
    • Yes, of course! Why wouldn't they?
      6
    • No, a plain and simple NO!
      37
    • No, we the PC gamers, don't deserve it... because of various reasons

    • No, ... <inhales and gets ready for a bitchfest>.

I assume this is the article.

 

I don't understand why people who know sh*t about games write this sort of articles. GTA IV has gotten its promotion already, it's all done and seen get over it.

 

 

it’s just not fun, it’s no fun: "Well, these people disrespected me; well, I’m going to go kill all of them. They did it again. I’m going to kill them again." It gets very monotonous.

I'm so glad he noticed.

 

 

In "GTA IV," there are peds [pedestrians] speaking Chinese to each other. We went to a new level of stupidity. We’ve got peds speaking Russian, peds speaking Spanish.

It's especially stupid if that Chinese or Russian is as bad as Niko's Serbian.

 

 

maybe a few more than that because they switch the heads on them so it actually seems like a lot more than that, but that’s 700 or 800 different models to start with

You have to give him that, I don't think I ever saw two same peds one near the other in GTA IV. In this aspect, GTA IV has a lot of variation. Pity they spawn on 20 foot distance in cars. And only in the PC version.

 

 

It’s definitely funny watching it because it’s so mechanical now, we’re so good at doing it, at least in organizing it. They can record astonishing amounts of dialogue in a short period of time.

I can write an astonishing amount of crap in no time, as well.

 

 

And the intense consumerism, obviously, was a big aspect of the game. Really, I think, if it’s as much about anything, it’s media hysteria. You know, when people try to sell you any kind of product by making it seem like it’s a life-or-death decision, which permeates out into making people feel constantly on edge and constantly insane.

OMG, he admits it. All the hype for nothing. This one's going straight to my bookmarks. Keyword BULLsh*t.

 

 

I think for this game, where we were going for—the way we saw it, we were trying to create a high-definition experience, and what that meant was not just high-definition graphics but a much more detailed story and at a certain level that also meant a much more believable story.

High definition story? OK, someone, please give me an example.

 

 

It wasn’t just graphics. It was also this new technology, it was faces, it was story, it was writing, it was the narrative flow, it was the world itself and the things you got to do in that world. It all had to feel slightly more believable because it looked slightly more believable.

Rrrrriiiiiht.

"With the PS1, we thought this..." "With the PS2, we thought that..." "With the PS3 and X360, we thought something else..."

 

Truth be told...

 

"With a cock up our ass since the year 2000, we don't think much at all anymore...and we try not to mention the PC during interviews."

+1

 

I voted "No", but I'm kinda swayed by CC's perspective. I think the sales, regardless of that being of their own making, could kill the PC line. And Micro$oft will celebrate all the way to their $40 billion bank account. No one profits from PCs 'cuz no one "owns" the PCs like $ony and Micro$oft, so no one's gonna push PCs for gaming.

 

Then again, and I know I am guilty of dredging the past (but CC's sales comment made me look this up), but I can't help but quote the following back in Houser's mealy face:

 

Let's see, it requires a super-computer, is buggy as hell, and has been out on consoles for months. I wonder why it is flopping?

 

I think I could add that you have to become a full-time hacker to get it to work properly, but I would rather add that perhaps the PC versions problems are more... indicative of a global phenomenon???

 

 

Well to my credit I did buy TWO copies of the PC version  tounge.gif  So that balances things out a little bit.

And I bought one I can't play/run, so that balances things out a little bit more.
