2007-05-04 05:43:21 Anyone see how incredible GTA4 look in OPM?

Anyone saw the mag? The game looks so stunning. The attention to detail is the best I've seen and I really like all the great ideas they have for the game.

Its like yet again despite how many GTA clones there are none of them seem to raise the bar as much as GTA does. There aren't many devs out there to me that truly understand what makes a game fun and these guys really get it which is why I look forward to many many more gta games in the future :)

It's in OPM, but everything being shown is from the 360 version of the game as they've yet to show the PS3 version to anyone outside of the company. The graphics are incredible still surprised they're achieving this in such a large scale game.

I'd post stuff, but scans aren't allowed :(

If it has Saint's Row's aiming, it's a must buy. If it has auto-aiming i dunno. Auto-aiming sucks really bad :(

OPM? That magazine is dead.

I don't know I think the aiming in saints row is really cheesy and it attempts to put skill in a game that essentially shouldn't be about skill in the first place.

Its just a game where you have fun and just like previous gta games the shooting should be lock on. It just feels more fun. I don't wanna have to waste time aiming at stuff manually. According to OPM it still has auto aim, but it has been improved and I'm glad they aren't feeling pressure to change how they do things.

Well auto-aiming takes all the fun out of it for me. It just does. I hate playing with GTA3 style aiming :( But if it has aiming like Saint's Row's.. perfect.

Assassin's Creed, Alan Wake and next-gen GTA look IMO better than GTA4.

2007-05-06 20:15:47

If you want to see the scans, go to google and type GTA IV scans, it's that easy. Check the first link and if you look well enough into that, you get to some super high res, high quality scans. Basically I agree with Optimus, it looks really great.

I don't think we've seen the next gen Getaway yet and after the previous fiascos with that series I wont trust anything I see of it until its being played live somewhere where people can make sure its a game being played.

I wouldn't compare Alan Wake to GTA.. they just seem so different to me. Assassin's Creed.. I realy think without a doubt GTA4 looks just as impressive as that if not better in some areas. i think a big part of why you may prefer AC over GTA4 is artstyle. I mean its hard for GTA in its environments to look more appealing than the amazingly historic vistas in assassin's creed, but even so I think GTA holds up pretty well. Don't get me wrong AC looks absolutely stunning in my opinoin and we probably shouldn't even be comparing the 2 games, but GTA4 looks pretty damn good too.

I think the one that doesn't fit this discussion at all is AC. As far as I know, it doesn't take place in a huge streaming world..........or does it?

AC does take place in a huge streaming world :)

You can travel all over and apparently its 100 miles to the biggest city in the game or something like that so on the way to places you'll find clues in regards to your next target and you'll find distractions.

Well, the only thing that I'm affraid off in AC is that the enviroments will be very repetitive.
I mean, all the cities will look very similar but I guess that's to be expected because of the time it takes place at.

That's what I love about games like ME and Too Human. The diversity of enviroments is limitless because you can basicly create whatever you want... :)

Well yes, there will be some diversity obviously but I guess will see how that will turn out like.
How do you know about the different colour filters for each city..?
But yeah, I'm expecting AC to be an incredible game as well... :)

I'm also looking forward to Mercenaries 2 as well indeed.
But of all these games, GTA IV is way on top of my list...

Yeah, I have to admit that I'm kind of being lead by the hype as well in regards of GTA IV.
I don't know, everytime a new GTA comes out it's something special. It's just one of those games you fall in love with.
Even though GTA SA was slightly disappointing to me as well, it was just something I immensly enjoyed regardless.

It has that something special that I can't put my finger on that other games lack that makes me want this game more than any other game out there...
