That's awesome. I can not wait to get this game, take of my pants (got to channel Trevor) and play the shit out of it...Made a little time lapse gif.

Well that's annoying. So I have the choice of texture pop-in, or listening to my 360's obnoxiously loud disc drive.
Headset bro. Ignorance is bliss...
Both versions suffer from pop-in and framerate dips. I guess you could wait for DF to really see the differences.

So far GTA V has had 30 reviews which puts it on a 97 Metacritic score.
GTA IV, in the end, had 81 reviews which puts it on a 98 Metacritic score.
If GTA IV stands above GTA V by the end of all the accounted reviews it will be somewhat of a joke.

Playing the PS3 version for a couple days now and the framerate feels like it's at 30fps most of the time with some dips here and there. I have no complaints at all, it's one damn fine looking game.
Did anyone mention the character models? Rockstar did a great job with character "imperfections" like fat, love handles, bags under characters eyes, wrinkles, asymmetrical features, stuff like that.

I don't like the implication that disagreeing with your take on GTA's satire, means being defensive or not taking the issue seriously.
I don't think GTA's satire is always on point, but the large majority of it is so on the nose on where it's going, that is really hard to miss the fact that it aims in every direction (and infact it usually aims at people in power).
Most of it is leveled at republicans and rich spoiled people.
The examples brought up in the Gamespot review are no different.
Again, shows like Always Sunny in Philly and Arrested Development do this constantly, although much more subtly and in a better way, however the intent is awfully similar.

Idea from a friend: Install play-disk to USB-drive?

reason I predicted 97 was for the "activist" review
ie a 98-99 but brought down by such a review. reason being, if someone things game is overrated then a "fair" review score doesnt "address" the issue (since it wont dent the score). its necessary to be overly harsh to make a difference

Awww, man. I know you weren't addressing my post, but I wasn't getting defensive, I was interested!

Will my ps3 run quieter if i buy it digitally or is the noise unrelated to the disk drive? Phat guy here.
It's really hard to get a 98 with so many reviewers now, even more so when they're docking points for completely dumb shit that people weren't doing in 2008 like whining about misogyny in every corner of every street and whining about people doing bad things in a game called grand theft auto.
More hype and higher review scores for most games that came out early in the gen.

Has 5 years really made such a difference in the gaming community?
I might do that if I can't tune out the drive noise.
Interesting idea. I'd like to see Digital Foundry test that.
Yep. "The characters aren't likeable!" Well, no shit. They're criminals, what did you expect? Anyways, now it's really time for me to sit out of this thread. It's going to make the day miserably slow if I stay in here, lol.

Anybody know what the shooting controls on PS3 are, and if they're L2/R2, if you can switch em?

The problem is that there isn't much room for manoeuvre between 98 and 100.
Nope. I believe theirs a hood cam.
You can switch them. I think L2/R2 is the default control setting.

The alternate control scheme swaps L2/R2 with L1 and R1.
There is a cam aimed solely at Grove street??? Schweet!

It would be pointless whining if they weren't reviewing a direct sequel of a game and docking it instead for being more of the same. The expectation that GTAV would review better than GTAIV is crazypants but that's not on the reviewers.
Argghh. It's my most wanted feature and I never get it.
CJ was a criminal too, but I loved that dude.
If the main characters aren't likeable, then that's a real problem.
They can be cold-blooded gangster badasses, but you still need to want to play as them and you need to be able to identify with the character's emotions and subsequent actions.
If they are nothing but stone-faced assholes with no emotions beyond "GRR FUCK" then i'm going to be sorely disappointed.

So there seem to be a bevy of neat-o cheats to play around with. I was wrong. This crow has a lot of feathers in it.
Now I have to wait a good long while until I can get this game. Enjoy it for me.

You mean uncheck 720p and try to force it to 1080p? Didn't try.
You have to remember people who play on consoles also aren't sensitive to graphical flaws etc and it doesn't impact their game at all, which I think is a good thing.
I am one of those where whether I am playing at 1080p, or 720p, or 30fps or 60fps or low-res textures, or ultra quality textures, it makes no difference, I enjoy the game at the same level either way.
That's why when I read these technical comparisons with sites nit-picking about texture detail etc, it's sort of funny to me, because I get the same experience either way and aren't sensitive to it.
And theres many here I am sure who are the same, so when I site says this game as technical flaws, it really doesn't matter to most people, as they aren't sensitive to these things as much and doesn't impact their game at all.
Well, I had no problems with the other characters, either. I liked them myself. In fact, Trevor is supposed to be a psycho basically, but I'm most looking forward to playing as him because of that fact.
Anyone else who hadn't ventured near the spoiler thread give in and watch a few reviews today? This is one of the first games where I've decided to stay away from actual gameplay before launch and I've finally given in the day before release - I'm not sure whether I should feel bad for myself or not.
I think those snippets of reviews are all I'm gonna watch for now, hopefully I won't be tempted to venture further before tomorrow. If the reviews and footage in them are anything to go by, we all have very good reasons to be insatiably hyped for tomorrow.
