Just played IV for the first time in a while, god, Games for Windows Live is such a big pile of shit. I really hope they don't use it on GTAV.
They'll most likely use Steam and Steamworks, like they did with L.A. Noire.
To be honest, only achievement whores like me would have a bit of use for GFWL.
And for quick view on messages and friends and stuff, but I can't even join friends' parties so it's better off without anyway.
But, for the most part, I haven't had any real problems with it, and it really isn't noticeable besides the usual pop-up notifs.

L.A. Noire only uses Steam on the sense that it's sold on Steam, and it's achievements are tracked on Steam.

Yeah, I was saying pretty much that. The rest of it was just personal experience.
[QUOTE=LunchboxOfDoom;34549732]Apparently, they're not going to release little informative videos that cover specific aspects of the game once every few weeks like what they did with Red Dead Redemption.
Damn.[IMG]http://i41.tinypic.com/97i7w6.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
Just because they haven't come yet doesn't mean they won't come at all. The gameplay series for RDR didn't start until months after the reveal trailer.

I liked the little character profile videos they did in the build up to GTA IV
I'm getting it for the PS3 and not the PC... You know why.

[B]1.) These trees are not looking real.
2.) While these trees are shining differently then others at the background. I think the trees in the front are real and in the background there is a movie set.[/B]
my counter to that:
in that scene the clouds are moving
animated movie set?
we wont know for a while either way, I could be wrong
to have the trees in the distance look as detailed as the ones in the foreground would probably be impossible even on an insanely powerful pc
[editline]5th February 2012[/editline]
thats why they look that way. its a real in-game mountain.
see that's what I was thinking at first and was going to argue the LOD factor, however, then you notice the way the leaves are on the trees. so I removed that part of my comment
also I live in australia and have no idea how those types of trees should actually look
My thought is that due to limitations in hardware, a lot of the map might not be entirely done. Meaning that the whole area will be surrounded by a "round wall of no". Still, this is just speculation.

I may be wrong but look at the trees in the box. The shadows on the tree are looking like paintings.

Real Trees:[/B]

Or maybe Rockstar just haven't made any good trees yet.
Tank with realistic tracks please no more tires!
From far away, you can't see the details on the characters' faces. See in the trailer: Ned Luke's facial details in the "balcony" scene, then later on in the heist scene.
Abhishek, Rockstar's games always had some kind of painting effect in their games. Probably to ease whatever anti-aliasing they may or may not have.

Would make sense, it is Vinewood after all.
Red County had mount chillmore in San Andreas so why not have a mountain and the countryside in GTA V? Heck, why not have whole mountain ranges acting as gameplay boundaries.

[b]GTA V Xmas 2012 release date hinted at by Take-Two financial projections[/b]
[quote]
Grand Theft Auto V may currently be floating around in the "TBC" netherworld of release dates, but a new report from Take-Two has hinted at a Christmas 2012 release date for the open-world crime sim.
Take-Two, parent company of GTA publisher Rockstar Games, has reported a drop in profits for its fiscal Q3 ending December 31st. Despite this, they've bullishly tipped fiscal 2013 to be one of the most lucrative in the company's history, suggesting a late 2012 release for the next GTA game with the Christmas period being the most profitable point for boxed games.
"Fiscal 2013 is expected to be one of our best years ever, with substantial revenue growth and non-GAAP net income in excess of $2 per diluted share. We are well positioned to continue to deliver growth and profitability over the long-term," said Take-Two chairman and CEO Strauss Zelnick.
Though GTA V will lead Take-Two's profit charge, there are plenty of other promising titles heading out this year under their umbrella. Max Payne 3, Spec Ops: The Line, XCOM: Enemy Unknown and BioShock Infinite are all due later this year while there's also Borderlands 2 and the XCOM FPS game out in Take-Two's fiscal 2013 too.

I'd have hoped before this summer :(
I don't know remember the details clearly, but I think Take-Two is allowing Rockstar to give the release, but aren't stressing anything. But definitely they'd want to get it out before Christmas.
But before this summer? Seriously? I don't meant to sound like a dick, but that's pretty unrealistic. But hey, it's just a hope.

Or it's the LOD models.
I hope there is a GTA/Rockstar sale soon. I got a 50% rockstar coupon and that with a sale can get me EFLC for like $5
The guys at [URL="http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showforum=239"]gtaforum[/URL] are really pathetic. All the senior members there think they're best but in reality they are not.
They're not all bad. The trolls are noticeably getting louder and louder each day though.
And the member of Zee, he was pissing me at first, but then you find him actually funny and start to laugh at his trolling. Just look at the video in his signature.
They actually were responsible for finding a lot of stuff no one else has..

GTAForums are terrible. Pretty much everyone in there is a fucking idiot. Even the people who make actually good mods are retards who end up messing up their good mods by making dumb mistakes due to how dumb they are.
Oh look, another super high quality "beta" video :v::
