orappa Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 i hope there will come a pc version of gta sabut if it comes out on pc i think i cant run it on my low 1400mhz with a geforce 2 mmx 400 [64mb] and a ram memory of 256mb ram It wouldn't be good business sense for Rockstar not to release it on PC. To be honest, with the likes of Half-Life 2 and Doom 3 (supposedly) coming out this year, along with new technologies, it would be a good time to upgrade. Link to comment
Prokopis Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 Ppl were saying that a month ago with UT2k4, they're saying it now with Far Cry, they'll be saying it just as well later on and so on... High performance, resources demanding games will keep on coming one after another, which alone should suggest the "now would be a good time to upgrade" mentality is stupid if not patronizing, but definitely a market driven one. Ppl should consider upgrades depending on their current (and immediate future) needs and what they can afford when the time comes. Back on topic, here's a wild Prokopis prediction for the PC version of SA: expect >=3 CDs. You heard it here first!!!1 Oh and I bet the maps will still be buggy as hell (which I love about the GTA series ). Link to comment

Ppl should consider upgrades depending on their current (and immediate future) needs and what they can afford when the time comes. Actually, now would be the worst time to upgrade, what with BTX and PCI-Express due for release later in the year, not to mention next-gen cards offering (apparently) 100% performance increases (which was why I specifically refrained from using the word "now"). And I would generally agree with your argument, but everyone on this site will want to play the new GTA, and a large number of people will want to play Doom 3 and Half-Life (if only to see if the hype is justified). For a lot of people, this will mean an upgrade. I did not say "get the fastest machine possible". With new technology looming, what is considered to be fast today will receive massive price cuts so that suppliers can shift stock ready for the new hardware (the Radeon 9800 XT has had a 50% cut by some retailers), so it will not be as expensive as you make out.

eAi Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 I'd have to agree, theres a lot of new hardware on the horizon - next gen of GPUs, new case/motherboard system and of course PCI Express (that name sounds really corny to me)... eAi Link to comment
trx Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 I keep wondering why they would call it ''Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas'', If there are supposedly three cities. Link to comment
Black Dragon Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 cause it will be like gta3 - liberty city -> 3 islands. probably same with that, just HUGE maps. Link to comment
eAi Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 I keep wondering why they would call it ''Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas'', If there are supposedly three cities.Well, we know why, San Andreas is a state, which contains the three cities.eAi Link to comment
trx Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 Ah, must have missed that when I read the article. Funny that they would deviate from their 'gta1 tribute' style, as in gta1 San Andreas was a city, just like Liberty City and Vice City were. Link to comment

Let's just hope it's a good game. probably cool than the fuckin malibu, lmao, but 4 real, maybe you can take your aggression and hate for the people that love the casino so much, on the people who r IN the casino, 1337 , thats what i do Link to comment

WTF dude? Ppl have been saying "omg we're gonna own a casino" and I just don't see what's so special about that to get so excited over, months before the game comes out and especially when they've heard all of its other features as well. Or is it because you'll be able to gamble? Dunno, I guess the mere thought of a casino in a game is enough to suggest a very good game for some ppl; I'm just not one of them. BTW makin' money in the other 2 GTA installments was never the biggest of problems anyway. Link to comment
OpiuM. Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 i was directing that comment to people that think that the casino isnt so gr8, they could take thier agression and hate, of people that think the casino is so 1337 on bystanding peds "smart" , "ragdoll" helpless peds Link to comment

Guardians Proper Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Did they ever actually SAY you can get fat? It might just be a picture of some fat black NPC near a donut shop Link to comment

As long they don't use the GTA III engine (or the advanced Vice City engine) then it'll be fine (maybe, not official) Link to comment
