it looks nothing like a painting. I am so impressed with the modelling of the characters. The way the light hits their skin looks awesome.

 

Plus look at the detail in the clothes. Even the buttons on the shirts reflect light.. It's almost life like at times, but with collour and vibrancy.

Graphics better in IV!? GET THE f*ck OUT! Once U notice how great this more cartoony graphics are the more U accept it now look at these:

look at the guy with the white hoody on left. It looks like it could be from a low budget movie.

Now look behind Frank. Look at the guy with the white shirt. U can compare that with a 50$ camera shot.

Those are some examples why R* is going in the right direction. Who knows maybe next generation the games are going to look photo realistic.

Where are the mods tonight? Every single one of them is offline except K^2 and I sent him a message about the porn gif douchebag so maybe he will get banned

People like you make the gta forum experience less enjoyable. sad.gif

 

OT: I think the graphics look A LOT Better in the V trailers, I'm kinda doubting my 4gig xbox will even run it haha tounge.gif

People like me? What the hell did I do? I was just trying to report the guy spamming porn gifs everywhere. That sh*t doesn't belong here.

dude, GTA iv does not look better at all.... besides its not the final product f*ck you got a couple months to wait for it

The graphics haven't changed much since the first trailer, do you really think that in the last months they'll give the graphics an overhaul and make it look much better?

I'm not saying the suck now or anything, I'm just saying they won't change.

While GTA V obviously looks better to me it makes no sense to say GTA IV's graphics "suck" in comparison.

 

It is 5 years old after all so by default GTA V should look better. GTA IV was and still is a fine looking game for its age.

 

Go play alot of games from 2008 and see how terrible they look now. GTA IV has aged very well IMO.

This...In the end all it will probably mean is the GTA IV trailers were better pre-rendered than the V trailers were.

I wouldn't say it's a fine looking game at this point. It's decent I'd say. It looked "good" when it first came out, but when Gay Tony released, it looked quite dated. The textures are pretty bad and the city looks nowhere near as pretty in the day as it does in the night. The "machinima" cutscenes that take place at the end of some missions are pretty bad too. I will say that the lighting engine and cars still look good.

Don't get me wrong I have already pre-ordered V, will play the f*ck out of it and I know I will enjoy it and remember this is not a diss but...

 

The graphics in the IV trailers are much better than this, probably due to there being that much less going on, smaller map, less options etc...

 

I am not complaining just making an observation...Anyone else agree?

Yep

How is the GTA IV PC version relevant in any capacity though? Only 1% of Rockstars sales for GTA IV came from PC. Most people play the console versions of GTA so really those are the only versions that are relevant when comparing the games.

IV's rain clearly looks much better than V in every way.

DO you honestly think IV's rain looks better than GTA V's rain???

I think he might of been being a smartass because

 

there's no rain in the V screenshot lol

You two must be on something. First off I was being sarcastic. Second off evidently it is raining in the V screenshot and I was basically trying to compare the two to show V is more detailed and complex. Oh well. rolleyes.gif this is the V area though.

I hear thunder but there is no rain,

This kind of thunder breaks walls and window pane

I just played IV today and I have to say that compared to V the textures are horrible. GTA IV was more plain, GTA V has more effects and it's still in development, it's normal it shows a lot of flaws especially on the consoles' limited hardware. That shall be fixed, and it's still better than IV.

So we went from "Graphics looks to good to be a PS3/360 game" to "Graphics looks worse then GTA IV" in a few months? Thats strange.
