By the looks of it GTAV might be going back to an LA type setting. Hopefully they'll throw in some goddamn scenery this time. San Andreas had it right.

Replaying GTA IV now. Man, running down pedestrians with Jill Scott on the radio is badass as hell.

If the trailer reveals a rebooted Los Santos deal I won't even be slightly mad. Rockstar can do a shitload with LA county.

I'm not looking forward to the trailer in the same why I was looking forward to the 1st GTA IV trailer. Too focused on Skyrim/Uncharted 3/SR3/MW3 right now. I'm still setting the alarm for 5am tommorow morning though.

As much as I don't want it to go back to San Andreas, that poo poo would look so good on a next-Gen system. We'll find out in a bit though.

Well, IV was released a year and a bit after the first trailer so hopefully that's the case now.

7 minutes away. This better not be a goddamn troll Rockstar. Show some good poo poo this time.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Rockstar's servers melted when the first GTA IV trailer hit. Gonna be pissed if they don't hold this time.

Alright, please don't freeze halfway through the poo poo...

Looks like the main guy is Hispanic. makes sense since we're in Los Santos. And MOUNTAINS AND PLANES AND poo poo. gently caress.

So is it set in the early 2000s or in the 2010s?

The foreclosure sign suggests that it's set right around now. So late 10's I spose.

Now, all we need is more trailers and a goddamn release date.

I will actually jizz all over the show if the future trailers reveal San Fierro and Las Venturas.

Now awaiting the OCDish frame-by-frame analysis by IGN or whoever. Something else is bound to pop up.

All this talk about GTA IV is making want to replay it for the millionth goddamn time.

Sir Xiphos
Dec 11, 2008
I'd prefer if it was just Los Santos. It doesn't make much sense to include to entire cities to the mix if LA itself is goddamn enormous. That coupled with the countryside and such will give us plenty to gently caress around with.

IGN have broken the trailer down. Good work.

How large was GTA4 on the Xbox 360 in filesize (saved to HD)?

Around the 7GB mark I think.

Sir Xiphos
Dec 11, 2008
That seals it then. I'm glad they're not stuffing in San Fierro or Las Venturas since a reimagined LA will be loving enormous anyway. It'll probably make everything flow a bit better as well I suppose. It doesn't really make sense to throw 3 entirely different cities into the same map either.

Sir Xiphos
Dec 11, 2008
They'll probably have 1, maybe 2, airports in the main city with a bunch of airstrips or something scattered throughout the countryside areas. I can dig that.

Sir Xiphos
Dec 11, 2008
If anyone is from the LA, is Disneyland far from the city itself or not?

Replaying GTA IV for the hell of it. Man, I forgot how good Algonquin looks. Fine job.

So I've been following the development of the Icenhancer ENB 2.0 mod for some time now and the guy behind it is very near release. His latest batch of screenshots from it are pretty loving rad. Naturally it's catered to those with super computers from future space. Also, he's been doing some work to make it compatible with version 1.0.07, but don't expect it to be as pretty as the 1.0.04 version. You can check out his Facebook page for the latest info on it. I promise I'm not the guy making this. I'm just hoping he resumes work on his Skyrim version once 2.0 is released.







As a console gamer, this makes me weep.

I just spent 9.95!! posted:

So has there been any recent word on GTA V or is it still just a trailer from last year and nothing else since then? They're really dragging their goddamn feet on this one

Rockstar made a twitter account for the Epsilon Program and that's it. Should expect something to happen soon though.

STOP PLAYING WITH MY EMOTIONS ROCKSTAR. That poo poo looks goooood as hell. Hopefully the next lot of screenies should show some more of the map. I want farms n poo poo.

Also, look down the bottom where the screens are:
