Eeeyyy cousin, let’s go bowling
GTA IV is currently backwards compatible on Xbox, so you can already play it on there. If you have your old 360 disc that works you can use that to get the digital version.
Grand Theft Auto 4 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S reportedly in development, could release this year

Just keep Grove Street Games as far away from this as possible.
No one wants to see them butcher another entry in this series with their lazy, AI-upscale slop.
ToughGoat@lemmy.ml 10 months ago
To be fair I don’t think the issue is Grove Street Games. The AI-upscale texture work wasn’t even done by them - that was Technicolor, who Rockstar, as far as I know, still use to this day.
The issue was that Rockstar gave them a tiny budget, not a whole lot of time, and then moved the deadline forward six months when GTA V E&E got delayed. I think the scope for the project was fundamentally wrong as well, the games needed a lot more than a straightforward port onto Unreal Engine.
No wonder it released in the state that it did.

I think they got shut down did they not?
thatKamGuy@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
They are still hiring, according to their website - so unlikely they’ve been shut down.

I loved it but I ain’t buying it a second time!

I guess AAA studios are hollywood now. Unable to create something new, put a new coat of paint on something from the attic. Milk the audience with nostalgia.

I have no issues with them remastering old games for newer platforms. I have a problem with remaking old games instead of making new games.

Have been for a while. Thank god indie game devs.

What universe are you from where it’s coming out next week.
madame_gaymes@programming.dev 10 months ago
My comment isn’t just about Rockstar, although they did also do some milking with GTA3 as well. Recently there was TES IV, plus all the Skyrim editions, from Bethesda. Now Gears of War is getting a remaster. In recent years, remakes and remasters from AAAs seem to have increased. Last of Us is another example.

Only reason I haven’t modded HDR for this game is because it’s DX9 and a pain to mod. (I already did GTAV - Enhanced and GTA Trilogy Remastered since it’s UE). If they make a new port for PC it’ll be able to complete the set.

$69.99 at launch guaranteed.
No
Fucking
Thanks

I read this as with a comma: “no fucking, thanks”.

Been playing it on PC. Performs better at 1440p that 1080p for reasons I don’t understand
sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
It’s probably because things get janky on high FPS. I wasn’t able to complete the game until I capped the FPS in the final mission (helicopter scene).
Baggie@lemmy.zip 10 months ago
Hope you’re running on Vulkan, for me it went from 30ish fps to an illegally high number for some ungodly reason.
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 10 months ago
$0 because I still own my PS3, and physical copy of the game.
DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 months ago
Played it on Xbox series X last year and have no desire to go back to it. I enjoyed the story and I’m done with it
madame_gaymes@programming.dev 10 months ago
The original will probably run better, too. I bet this is another TES IV situation where they stitched UE5 on top of the original game engine. The release pattern of being completely quiet, then random leak, then it drops is eerily similar.

Savvy?
otacon239@lemmy.world 10 months ago
GTA IV reoptimized to run in modern hardware with less or at least more reasonable piss filter would be a nice upgrade. None of the visual mods could get ride of the weird haze around everything.
OldSageRick@lemm.ee 10 months ago
Never thought I say this, but we gonna get GTA 4 before GTA6
echodot@feddit.uk 10 months ago
I’m taking bets on whether we’ll get GTA 7 before GTA 6
fluxion@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Man, it’s been so long i forgot we were up to 5 already and thought this was the new GTA.
spankmonkey@lemmy.world 10 months ago
We already did, but we will again too!

Hi Mitch!

Ok but don’t fix the swing set of doom. A significant portion of my playtime was trying to best my longest launch.
echodot@feddit.uk 10 months ago
It’s not a bug, the swing sits in New York just do that.

The car deformation physics of the game were so damn good and fun

The best one.

Meanwhile, PC players can still buy and play it off steam. Or just pirate it
alehel@lemmy.zip 10 months ago
Eh, you can also play the 360 version on series s/x.
