The Bossman

I'm not worried at all, they've had more than enough time to work on it and sort out any frame rate issues they had/have, they've been making the game since San Andreas came out nearly 4 years ago so I'm sure everything's going to plan. I don't think the 360 has reached its limit either, COD4 looks incredible, sure, but as time goes by, developers get to grips with the software more and more, the PS2 being a great example - God of War 2 came out this year and it's probably the best looking PS2 game of all time. If anything, you should be more worried with the PS3 version, it's been out for just over a year, whereas 360 has been out since late 2005, so it has less experience.

March would be good for me, it's the same month as my birthday. Not revealing when, though. I could use the money I get in order to buy the Special Edition, but I'll do that regardless.

It's happened to me before several times, but I couldn't work out why. It's a normal thing though, it's just the error page that comes up occasionally, maybe because you typed in something in the search box and it failed to load. It isn't a glitch.

I'll just go through the games I have for PS2, I'll only mention the great ones that are worth getting though. I don't know what games you have either, but here's a list if you're interested: Freedom Fighters Guitar Hero 1 Guitar Hero 2 Guitar Hero 3 Hitman 2: Silent Assassin Hitman: Contracts Hitman: Blood Money Okami Battlefield 2: Modern Combat (if you play PS2 online) Burnout 3: Takedown Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory Splinter Cell: Double Agent Black Bully Scarface: The World is Yours Ratchet & Clank 2: Locked And Loaded Ratchet & Clank 3 Fight Night Round 3 Out of those, I'd have to say Okami, Guitar Hero 2+3, Bully, Scarface and Freedom Fighters.

Ok, thanks. Seems a little advanced for me to manually report the topics, but I'll try it anyway. But, if you do discover any problems with it, post back here again please. It'll be interesting if it's just the settings on my comp.

Occasionally I report stupid topics or duplicate topics so they can be locked. I tried to report a similar topic just now, but when I clicked it, it took me to the top of the page instead. Normally the Report screen appears so I can type why it should be locked, and whatever else. Is this just a problem from my end, or does it happen for everyone else?

As Gycu said, I think we'll get the release date next month. It'll only be 2 or 3 months before it's released then, so it makes sense. If they don't announce it next month, then presume the worst - another delay. I seriously doubt there will be a delay though, and ATM it seems perfectly on track for release.

Just the detail on the shots is incredible, and the side-by-side comparisons are equally as good. I actually thought they'd make the Statue of Liberty a bit more jokey than that, seeing as they like parodying things. If you can go on the Screamer, I wonder if you can throw people out their seats...? I need a next-gen console now dammit. Good shots, as always.

Now that the trailers out, could you do me a GIF of various bits of the trailer please, similar to my sig ATM? There's absolutely no rush, take it at your own time, I'm sure there'll be loads of posts asking the same thing. I'll pay around $8000 if that's okay?

That was merely announcing the trailer had been released, this topic is about what our thoughts are on the trailer, lots of these are sure to pop up anyway, this isn't exactly a problem unless a Mod says it is.

Do you have the Youtube link? I can't find it there yet.

Unbelievable, I haven't finished watching it yet, but I'm blown away by those graphics! EDIT; Now I have, and there's more than enough there to analyse, yet again. I just can't break it down yet, I have to see it a few more times.

There's no point in rushing through the game IMO, because if or when you finish it, you might be disappointed at just roaming around and think 'man, I wish I took it more slowly...' You won't enjoy it as much if you just rush through it, and for what - so you can say you completed it before anyone else? Please. I'll take my time, do a few missions and generally have a ball. And I won't cheat, if I do I'll create another save game. Lucky I'll get it for PS3, if you cheat on 360 you can't get any achievements. That's what I've heard anyway.

My favourite is the 1st, the shadow looks great. The 2nd shot surely shows you can buy clothes and things like that for Niko, and I like the fingerless gloves in the 3rd shot, he's clearly rocking the hobo look. Can't wait for the trailer...

Middlesex in England, all my life so far. I don't want to move either, it's a quiet area I live in.

There might be a little bit of gameplay from the early missions, but I'm guessing it won't have any weapon HUD icons, if it does I'll be surprised. I think they'll keep that secret until it's out. There will be some more cut-scenes as always, might also see the weapons in the car trunk for the 1st time, and Roman could be in there as well - the trailer, not the trunk.

LOL, I tried to PM you ages ago and it said your inbox was full, clearly a popular person. BTW I posted in my topic as well, so if you want to make me a sig like the one I asked for, that'd be great. I pay handsomely, so it's worth it.

I thought if I asked generally, someone could see it and have a go, never mind. If you wanted to fix up a quick sig, then I'll pay you if LlamaLlama hasn't redone the other one yet. Either way, I'm easy.

I've seen them before, as have everyone, but they're much better without any logo on them. I still think the graphics will be clearer and more defined than these, they look good already but with the extra time they have, it'll improve no end. The 2 new shots are good examples, they look much better in a side-by-side comparison.

Great, some new shots at last, good to see there might be some sort of customisation, it won't be in depth but at least it's there. It also makes me think what the other cars will look like, if the Rover looks that good. They'll presumably be spruced up like in previous games in different eras. Yeah, good news.

I don't know if I've posted mine, even though I don't have a PS3 yet I've registered my name, it's the_bossman, so you can add me if you want.

Jesus, I saw this topic and didn't notice the file size, now I have, are you insane? Seriously, if someone decides to download that, I don't even know what would happen. Probably nothing, but this topic is stupid. it'll stay that way as well. How did you upload it anyway?

Definitely IDE, the computers 6 years old now I think. This DVD writer seems okay as well, it's an IDE so that's not a problem. When you say 'external USB', is that basically a 'plug in and use' device? Eg, you plug the USB lead into the USB and it'll work fine? If that's true, then I guess I'm sorted. I'll obviously have to consult with the parents before doing so.

I misread the question, forget it, I'll edit the post.

Gerard, a DVD writer like this?. If I get that, then I'll probably get a few of these as well. Question though, for that second link, is it 4.7GB for all 16 DVDs, or 4.7GB per DVD? If it's per DVD, then 3 DVDs would do, but if it's for all 16 DVDs, then I'd need to buy a few more sets of that, correct?
