A site about games and game paraphernalia and how nothing's as good as we remember it, probably because we used to inhabit a FANTASY WORLD.

It came with the template. Maybe in 2014 we'll jump on board the Twitter train and put that in here. Or a radio. That'd be nice.
Looking forward to some free roam later with UK:R'ers!
Surely UK:R should be scorning all versions of GTA IV for putting the Blue Skies in Games campaign back another three years as a thousand cash-in urban cliché clones are greenlit.
I agree, it should be replaced with 'More Cabaret Acts in Games'! Going to cabaret/comedy clubs in GTA4 is honestly my favourite part of the game.
Ever since the master system RPG days where you'd go into some kind of bar, and there'd be a cute little sprite dancer on a stage who danced for about 5 seconds to a tune if you 'talked to' her, I've always loved watching shows within games. I'm glad GTA4 is raising the bar. Watching the magic shows in the Russian cabaret, in particular, is more entertaining than most 'real' magicians I've seen.
I demand more of this in gaming. It might not be 'blue skies', but it's certainly 'casino night'.
Sony claimed they'd sent their best engineers to Rockstar to help with the PS3 version. It seems all they managed to do was turn down the resolution and disable the anti-aliasing. Another victory for Kutaragi's power house...
Of course there's no such thing as 640p, people are just incapable of talking about resolutions any more.
It's running at 1152x640 with no AA and being software scaled to 720p on the PS3, and running at 1280x720 with 2xAA on the 360.
The 360 version seems to have some unpleasant dithering artifacts showing up because of its shadow handling though.
Is the PS3 version shit? If so how shit? And on the shitness scale of shit, is it shitterer than other shit that's squeezed through Sony's shitter?
Thanks in advance,
Now imagine this process continuing for the period of time between when Sony first claimed a Playstation would be able to render Toy Story quality graphics until the time when one actually will be able to.
The final shit in that chain is a rough approximation of how shit GTA IV for PS3 is.
I told him it's simply fabulous on the 360, everyone else agreed, then we collectively called him a fucking mug and stole his shoes and broke his calculator.
The fucking mug.
Now, if GT5 was 640p, that'd be more like it. It probably is, too.
I think 640p's hilarious no matter what game has it, cos they always get caught out by that guy with a ruler
I'm too busy surfing for eastern european porn to be a fanboy.
Wrong thread? I was responding to the comments made by bilal a couple of posts up about GT5 on the PS3. Try reading all the comments. Your eyes must be giving up due to too much masturbation ;-)
I need more fellow UK types to be shot in the teeth by...
