Soda debris wouldn't be persistent in the save to crash him on the way back in. But who knows.

I'd throw my hat in for fat overflow.

Yeah "CJ got too fat" is my theory as well. That would persist in the save data and thus make it crash every time it tried to load, and there could be all sorts of weird number problems that weren't an issue on the original PS2 version but don't work in Unreal Engine, similar to what is going on from this post:

The latest Dolphin Emulator Progress Report is a wild ride

The high point is a floating point physics bug in True Crime NYC that turned out to be the game was ported from PS2, which doesn't support NaNs or infinities, and thus routinely divides by zero expecting to get a large but finite number; for the gamecube port they just installed a custom floating point exception handler that replicates the PS2 behaviour rather than updating the physics code, and Dolphin didn't support SIGFPE handlers because no other game on the platform uses that feature.

From what I understand, both Joel and Vinny have a magical ability to break just about any game, considerably more so if the game is already prone to break.

The difference is Joel breaks games by doing things that make perfect sense to him but the devs never expected anybody to do, Vinny just tries to play the game normally

Internal vs external glitches

Joel has one of my favorite Sims videos where he uses a mod that adds fighting and wrestling moves to the game. He makes Link and Kirby live together and it's got Link killing death himself with a body slam only to run home in time to kill a mail man and enjoy a pizza.

This is accurate. And almost in a weird compensatory sense, Vinny spends a lot of time breaking games deliberately too. There's perhaps no more perfect example of this than how he corrupted the PS2 Sopranos game.

Missed this over the weekend, but the rockstar launcher went offline right before the launch and was offline for at least a day while the PC versions of the remaster were unavailible to buy on PC, and if you did buy them they wouldnt run because the launcher was down.

Turned out rockstar left a bunch of stuff they shouldnt have in the games.

quote:

Over the past couple of days, modders have discovered what some have referred to as "the Holy Grail" for Rockstar fans hidden within the game; Music cut from the GTA Trilogy is still present in the files, but instructed not to play; developer notes and full game scripts can be uncovered; and arguably most troubling for Rockstar was the re-discovery of the highly controversial 'Hot Coffee' sex minigame which was cut from San Andreas.

At first I thought it was maybe the camera was slowly zooming in because of some kind of rounding error that gets magnified by swinging back and forth, but then it goes to the side view and what the gently caress is happening to the wheels.

It's due to the camera zooming in while breaking, the player is both breaking and sverving.

Reach for the moon!


Dead Space 3 has an equippable weapon mod called the 'Full Zoom Scope' which applies this overlay to your screen when you aim. Player 2 Isaac is in the center but on the left edge there you can see Carver, because the developers forgot to make your player invisible while you're in the zoom. All that happens is the FOV gets more narrow, so it's like your dude is zooming in your own third person camera.



I have no idea why they did this

Sorry, this is just how video game videos are now. At least Matt is generally a pretty cool guy who knows the value of being silent to let the game 'speak'.

Plus, inconsistent bugs are actually a really difficult thing to consistently capture, so you kinda just have to accept the form you see them.

Did anybody post the san andreas soda crash where if you buy too many drinks at once the game runs out of memory and crashes because of too many soda can objects

What about having the game autosave at the final soda can thus permanently bricking the game, especially fitting for the definitive edition

Its probably because they are PS2 native source repositories, so they were originally written and designed for Sony's Emotion Engine processor which was its own whole architecture.

Xboxes always been x86-stuff so porting stuff from and to them from PC is no-brainer.
