Just from all the previews I read on it I remember being more excited for that game than GTA 3 at the time. Then I played both and that perspective shifted fucking fast.

Anyone know if Sony/R* has said what time the psn release will be able to PLAY? I'd hate to have to wait till noon on Tuesday to be able to play
12 pst!
Those couple of months after GTA III came out where the press was hyping State of Emergency was pretty crazy. There was about a 5 month gap between the releases.
Games press were definitely selling it as the "Next GTA".

When the first batch of reviews come in I'm expecting perfect scores across the board. I think the words "Amazing, Perfect, Groundbreaking, and Must have" will be used countless times.
I'm excited for it, but the reviews are so typical these days. Groundbreaking games come out every 6 or 7 months now.

Man, I've always wanted that. Blade Runner-esque open-world game from R* set in a massive cyberpunk city. Could be truly awesome.
Lmao. I was so hyped for it also. So disappointing.
Though to be fair, it was developed by the now extinct VIS Entertainment and not R*.

I expect anger either way.
For some reason I have a hunch Bully is up next, then RDR. Agent? Who knows.
Bully seems like a good game to use to catch your next-gen bearings.
This is why reviews, paid reviews, are usually bullshit sandwiches. Groundbreaking games are not coming out every 6-7 months, and there are a lot of fun games I'd rate 4-5.

All I remember about the game is running around in a mall or something. It didn't seem to go anywhere. I don't think I've ever stopped playing a game after 30 minutes after paying full price for it before or since.
Ya, considering how close they were to each other (5 months), obviously in hindsight it was completely different developers.
Somehow I (and probably a lot of other people) had the idea it was pretty much the same guys behind GTA 3. Probably the same way that today a lot of people still think that Rockstar developed LA Noire.

Hope its nothing, but that's disheartening :-/ I hate the dual shock controller, would very much prefer not to use it. Hope the PC version gets here fast.
Yeah I remember it was getting pushed a lot. But at the time I thought the premise of inciting riots and participating in the madness was cool as hell and unique. I still remember they were talking about being able to throw molotovs into stores and using all sorts of melee weapons on people.
It ended up being so repetitive and boring. Talk about a learning experience with believing pre-release hype.

Not that I'm complaining since I'm going ps3 but that seems weird. Like it should be reversed if anything since the 360s hardware is more open world friendly.

hella bullets that's true
jeez glad I was late to see that. not even home base is safe!
Haha, I thought the same thing. "Rockstar? As in GTA III? Sign me up!"

Seriously. People need to pay more goddamn attention. Thankfully whateer was in it I didn't see it.
You now what I'm REALLY worried about?
MIDNIGHT LAUNCH GAME SPOILING DOUCHEBAGS
Is it a serious threat?

With a game this big I wouldn't doubt it. I'd just stay off the internet for the next week if you're really worried.

well I only have a xbox 360 and I know it suffered during GTA IV for the same reason. I've been asking these guys which system their playing and the ones with pop up always seem to be xbox.
To be fair it was a low risk spoiler. I mean I get why he shouldn't have posted it but it was just a scenery gif.

No no, I mean dicks shouting spoiler shit while I wait to pick it up. Im actually getting an little nervous about the launch. I've managed to avoid all non-official media (except for that partial track list revealed after the preload fiasco) and I'm incredibly proud of myself for having done so.
I don't want my self control shit on.
Like I said, I know why he shouldn't have posted it and it good that he removed it... All I'm saying is that even if somebody happened to see it (like I did for example) then it's really not the end of the world. It's not like it's a gif from the last cinematic of the game.

Dude.
It literally could NOT be any clearer. This is not the thread for it. Period.
AIGHT?
I get it. It apparently was scenery. Whoops didn't know there were trees and stuff! But rules are rules. Its black and white. Lets all play fair.

Going by the descriptions in the OP any talk that isn't about OFFICIALLY RELEASED material (AKA content ROCKSTAR has approved or sent to media for publication) is NOT to be discussed if you have the game already GTFO because it's not OFFICIALLY RELEASED
How can it be any more clear than :

I think most people have been using the 360 so no-one knows yet. One gaffer recently got the ps3 version so we might know more soon
i've never "bye junior"d someone before, i wanted to give it a shot and see how it felt. it felt smug. i don't think i'll do it again.

I'm pretty sure it's okay to talk about framerate/resolutions so that people who do not want risk spoiling themselves about the games content can at least find out about performance so they know what copy to buy.

Whoa, I'm on your side, homie.
But performance/fps questions are pretty much unspokenly accepted here.
Haven't seen a single person get mad when someone has said "game looks amazing, smooth, great fps, some pop in, etc"
Until you I guess...

The final weekend...
Performs just fine. Both versions are looking good.
Can we assume both versions run great, Rockstar Games and all of its sub-divisions have worked on the RAGE engine and GTA5 for the past 5+ years, both versions should be consistent at least in general performance, with the PS3 being superior compared to using flash drive as storage for install disc on the 360

What's aliasing?
I wasn't too hyped for the game during development since it wasn't even developed OR PUBLISHED by Rockstar Games
