My 360 copy runs smooth like butter. Guess you just hit some bad luck.

Installed. And game looks great so far. No problems yet. Ps3 slim
great, found a bug in the very opening tutorial, got stuck on the last row of pillars as Trevor when the cops pull up, couldnt do anything but restart the friggen opening tutorial, which then allowed me to find out the cutscenes are unskippable, reminding me of all the fun that was Max Payne 3.
and whats up with the driving, the fact they have the "bullet time" slow down effect is the only excuse to have vanilla handling ridiculously tight, and it doesn't matter how fast you're going, you have the same exact turn speed, whether you flick the stick left or right, or push up on the stick and just slightly move it along the edge of the circle to try and just gradually turn the wheel...nope, and it also makes your car almost front flip on its roof with any small jump since you're pushing up.
and its not like the "driving skill" attribute effects it, cause it was the same while driving as Trevor in that part of the tutorial and once again as Franklin only magnified cause they're faster sports cars. and a bunch of scripted intersection would-be collisions to make you use the bullet time gimmick, yet if you just slow down they all stop before hitting you.
the "slidey cars" cheat footage ive seen on youtube seems to mimic GTA 4 physics, but we cant use it cause it disables all saving, along with achievements and thus in-game unlocks. so unless they patch it, or make that one cheat availible without disabling everything, the entire game will be like this.
first GTA game ever thats had this bad of an opening impression, or really any action/open world Rockstar game in general since the PS2 era, minus State of Emergency(which was just dumb) and Max Payne 3, except if there was driving sections, with bad handling, glad i rented this.

says the code is invalid.. all my friends are the same. PS3, UK version.
the blue blip is how much sound you're making.
It is much more feasible now to get into a dark alley and generally away from trafficked areas to get away from the initial cop search, but their cones of vision don't seem to take that into account. You can be otherwise out of sight (behind a building, in some tunnel, etc) but if a cone of vision touches you, you'll be spotted. However the fact that there are cones of vision here means that you can always tell when you threaten to be spotted, so it works well.

This was happening in the first 30 mins of the game for me on ps3 but then after that i've never noticed it again and i'm almost done with the game
Yeah, mine runs fine too.

This game is amazing. I'm SO happy!

did he install both discs?
they said not to, because of texture loading issues
Okay, thank you.

Now we know what it'd be like if they ported GTA V to the original PlayStation.
Actually, wait. Driver 2 looked better than that. So, 32X version, maybe?
Agreed. It's much, much better than previous GTA's but not as good as MP3. Maybe R* felt it would've been too big a jump for most of the player base.
Still a big improvement, maybe full-on MP3 style shooting in GTA VI.
I said here that I will finish Outlast while waiting for GTAV...
...so I freakin did. Now stretching with chillstep and hopefuly my dreams won't be as fucked up as what I've seen today.
So gratz to me, today at 0051 is the day I will receive that SE and finaly play the game...

I really like the shooting range mini-game.
It's so weird using the DS3 when I used the 360 controller for all of GTA IV on consoles and PC. Taking some getting used to, but mostly when it comes to driving. The triggers don't feel sensitive enough, and neither is the steering. When I make small twitch movements on the left stick, they don't seem to translate well to the screen.
Without a point of comparison, however, I can't say if this is due to the controller or just the new driving mechanics.

Nope, only installed the Install disc.
This is what my GTA V file on 360 looks like, does this look right?
Maybe it was me being tired, maybe his brand new smart TV doesn't output well.. I don't know.
Was just asking a question. Textures seem nicer to my eyes on the xbox, but I'm honestly looking for other impressions.

I expected it to meet halfway between Red Dead and Max Payne 3, so I'll probably be OK. MP3 had a lot of trade-offs to produce that wonderful end result, and an open world title like GTA doesn't have that much breathing room (if any) to start with.

I haven't had that x-ray vision provken with police. I was hiding in an alley with cops circling the block, almist constantly inside the vision cones, yet wasn't spotted until one cop had me in its line of sight.

I'm not sure that a faster HDD would fix the pop in issue with the PSN version. This game was designed to be read from the HDD and Disc. It's the reason why they advise people to note full install it on 360.
nevermind, just tried it and all it does is make you burn out and have less traction, on top of the quick tight turning responce.

So this game is pretty damn godly. I was hyping this game to the moon and somehow it's still better than I expected. Here's a tip for people. Change to free aim straight away. The game uses the same gunplay as Max Payne 3 minus the bullet time. In other words it has the best tps gunplay around. You just won't be able to see that if you don't switch to free aim. It's really puzzling why Rockstar still insist on using the dated lock on system as the default when they've clearly nailed the shooting mechanics.
The driving is also fantastic and MUCH better than GTA IV. It's actually fun and easy to drive around but it still has an element of skill to it and the physics are still good. I took to the driving straight away. In fact I'd say GTA V is the new benchmark for driving in open world games. Franklin's special ability is super fun to use as well and it's a great thing to use when you fuck up a turn or you're about to crash in to something. Just use the special ability and adjust. It's also really useful for shooting in the middle of a chase.
I haven't played many missions so far as I've mostly been just messing around in the world, but missions have all been really good so far and I really like the few characters I've seen. Also best first mission in a GTA game by a mile. I've played a couple stranger missions as well and I was quite surprised. They feel like full fledged story missions. I'm being 100% serious. If these missions were ordinary mission markers and not the stranger mission marks I wouldn't see it as out of the ordinary. If this is the kind of stuff the stranger missions are going to offer then I'm a hell of a lot less worried about the seemingly low main mission count compared to the last couple games. Much better than Red Dead Redemption when it comes to strangers.
One aspect of the game that I'm not so happy about is the wanted system. Actually scratch that. The wanted system is fantastic. It's just one aspect of it that should have been tweaked a bit. I think every police officer having their own cone of vision you have to stay out of is great and the ability to either hide in plain sight or speed away is great. But my problem with it is the amount of time it takes to escape a wanted level. The amount of time you have to stay unseen for you to lose it. It feels like forever. It makes even simple one or 2 star wanted levels tedious to escape from. I feel you should have to stay out of sight for a good 10 seconds less than the game asks.
But with that said I have to say I'm super impressed with the police ai, which is a first for the series. They seem really smart with their searching. One time I got a wanted level and went in to an alleyway. I saw a ladder by one of the buildings and climbed it. I thought hey they'll never look for me on top of this building. Cops don't climb ladders! Boy was I in for a surprise. The cops didn't see me climb the ladder or anything so it wasn't a simple matter of them following me. I saw them search around the area I last was thoroughly before one cop eventually decided the last place to search was up the ladder. I was not expecting it and I got killed pretty soon after once I was forced to slowly make my way back down the ladder. Police seem pretty smart. Also damn they're aggressive! They seem like the toughest police I've encountered in the series even on the lower wanted levels. Cop chases are certainly tense and fun. I only find it annoying how long it takes to lose a wanted level because when I only have a 1 or 2 star level and don't really feel like doing a chase it feels tedious. When I actually want a chase it's cool. When I don't it's not.
The world is beautiful and detailed. It's super fun just to explore and mess around in general. It's also damn huge and I haven't explored hardly any of the map yet. I've barely even ventured outside the city. Oh yeah I almost forgot about the random events. So far they seem like pretty standard RDR stuff. I saved someone being held up at gunpoint by two guys. I returned a bike that someone tried to steal. Standard stuff really. Oh and the taxi missions are pretty crappy. I don't know why they even bothered bringing them back if they were going to be this....lame about it. There's not even a timer. Just go from destination to destination with no real interesting twist. Just something simply like a timer would have made this more exciting like the PS2 games.
By the way does anyone know how you make chop do.....anything. I can get him to attack people but that's it. Are there not any commands for him? Can't I pet him? I only just unlocked him so maybe this is stuff you can do later in the game, but right now no buttons do anything for chop other than making him come towards me or attack people.
Also does anyone know if this game has a super bunny hop cheat like San Andreas? I played around on a bicycle and it was pretty fun, but I really hope a bunny hop cheat is in there for some crazy shit.
So yeah, damn good game. I'm addicted. Oh I forgot one more thing! Music is good so far. Already heard more songs I like than I did in GTA IV.

I spent a few thousand on upgrades for a car and then tried to park it in the Vinewood Garage, but it wouldn't let me. #coolgreat
:lol I boot up the game and hear "One! Two! Three! Four! Whoo, I got a pelvic flow like a sumo wrestler!!" and it's Franklins' Aunt in the other room exercising in front of the TV.
Essentially what it is. But turning off the auto-aim and increasing the sensitivity is basically essential I think. The default is too sluggish.

Did you guys know that at any time when you jump if you press "O" or "B" you ragdoll?
Like you can just jump while walking and press circle and the character goes into a ragdoll animation and ends up in a ball on the floor lol it's hilarious

I have the 360 version but popped round my friends house this evening and he has the PS3 version it's OK but I think the 360 controller feels tighter for this game.
The driving being looser means the DS3 stick placement also doesn't feel as nice for me.

The driving in the game is iiiiiinfinitely better than in IV.
Graphics are nice too. Frame dips are slightly annoying but not game breaking. Enjoying so far.
