    I don't want anything ridiculously difficult to get hold of. Every rare car should be available somewhere on the map, like where the Sultan RS was in IV. I found it annoying how the only way to get an Infernus you didn't mind smashing to bits was to either take Bernie's and multiply it by driving through Bohan, or never taking the gold one in the car theft side missions to the garage.

    If it's one city with no waterways, it could well be open from the start. If I remember rightly, IV was going to be all open from the beginning of the game, but they changed their mind at the last minute.

    Yeah there needs to be a proper mansion, like Diaz's place in Vice City. The most luxurious place in IV was Playboy's apartment, and only because it had a pool table.

    Somehow I think the trailer would have looked a hell of a lot better if it had been running on a PS4.

    Well, I would like a mobile-friendly version of the site, but that's really not my area

    We have nearly 3000 followers on Twitter but they don't keep coming back to visit the site every time something gets posted there. Given that we have the Twitter feed and a Facebook page, a newsletter that would almost certainly die for weeks on end and then have an occasional update to say a trailer is out is probably not going to work out. Do people even read email newsletters? Most of mine end up in the spam folder. I'm sure people will disagree but we have tried newsletters in the past and it simply hasn't worked out.

    I kind of doubt this... If they are going to bother selling "install" disks to people with crappy connections only, they'll have problems with their supply chain on the customer side. No store (eg Gamestop) is going to want to let MS take up counterspace with that kind of product without higher profit margin... And yet these stores are quite happy with selling PC games that are also released on Steam... If a game store refuses to sell games they won't make any money anyway. They have to make do with what they've got. If you look around the Marketplace (and with what's happening on Windows 8) I think it's obvious Microsoft is pushing downloaded content. When the next Xbox comes out and hard drives are adequately sized, it's the next natural step.

    We could do with one of those on here.

    Forgot the other guy made a post >_>

    When I walk into a store and buy a game, it comes on a fucking disc.
  13. DuffMan
    For games I reckon Microsoft will avoid Blu-ray. Loading times with high-res textures will be too high reading off a disc, so everything will need to be installed. In that case, they might as well make everything downloadable and sell install discs (which could be Blu-ray, but equally could be a high capacity flash drive) in stores for people with crap internet connections. Then the Xbox 4 will have SSD for blazing fast load speeds.

    I'm afraid I'll be too busy playing GTA 5.

    Average doesn't mean everyone is the same size. It just means there must be a lot of people with micropenis in this country.

    I'm really hoping they let us spawn a car of our choice. It sucks how you have to wait for the right time of day for a certain car. I've ended up in a fucking Lokus more times than I care to count in IV.

    Liability. If the game is rated 15 and a mod distributed over the PSN has 18+ content in it, who's responsible? Rockstar or Sony? That, and neither company make money out of user-generated content. PC is an open platform and doesn't have the same problem.
  18. DuffMan
    It could happen on PS3 but Microsoft restricts user-generated content because it can't be arsed with moderating it. When I say it could happen on PS3, what I mean is it's technically possible, but won't happen.

    Problem is if you have too many people, eventually they will all get together in the same place and the hardware won't be able to cope with it. GTA IV got laggy enough with just a few people in the same place blowing shit up.
  20. DuffMan
    Let me fix that for you. You can repay me later EDIT: having watched the video, I now regret embedding it into the forum. What an annoying cunt.

    Some guy said they're changing their approach to DLC. The Oblivion had a lot of smaller packs. I think their intention with Skyrim is to mostly have larger expansions like Shivering Isles. http://www.wired.com.../11/skyrim-dlc/ EDIT: http://www.joystiq.com/2011/08/26/skyrim-dlc-packs-heading-to-xbox-360-first/ I never knew about this.

    Okay boss. I'm still not removing it only to end up cutting yours down to size for you. I think the original question has now been answered. EDIT: to your edit - there's no point keeping multiple topics about the same thing open when they are a few lines apart on the page.

    I don't see why you need 350 pixels of my screen to sign your posts off with, particularly if I'm going to see the same thing 3 or 4 times on one page. I prefer doing it this way than opening up in photoshop and figuring out how much space needs to be taken off, because I have better things to do. You're the first to complain about it so I figure most people are okay with 250px being the limit.

    I quietly added that a few weeks ago because I was sick of scrolling past massive signatures all the time and having to get a measuring tool out to see if a sig was oversized. Solution is to follow the rules, then it won't get cut off.

    It could work but I wouldn't be disappointed if it wasn't in the game. GTA really is about one specific person's story, and part of that is their appearence. Multiplayer is where facial customisation would really come into its own.
