GTAIV came to PC 6month's later, so we can dream.

aaaaaaaaa5626d ago

I for one is praying to the gaming gods

Pizza5626d ago

Expect another bad console port...

lucifon5625d ago

Sadly this may be the case

iamgoatman5625d ago

Hopefully they've learned their lesson after GTA4.

ct035625d ago

GTA 4 runs like crap on anything less than 4 cores.
Since this game is newer, it only makes sense for it to require a minimum of 6 cores.

Yeah, it's on consoles. So?

Sarcasm5625d ago (Edited 5625d ago )

No, GTA 4 runs like crap even on 4 cores. Unless someone has a higher end intel i5 or i7 will they be able to get max sliders and max frame rates.

Sadly, my AMD 965BE cant handle it as good as I thought. Stinkin 60fps only when I have the sliders down to around 30. My GTX580 is not even necessary for this game. Even then, the game isn't optimized and hardly 60-70% cpu usage overall. If it actually was optimized and used my cpu 100% of the time, then I would understand that my CPU would be a bottleneck, but it isn't.

Bully and GTA IV are two of the worst PC ports I've played to date. I'm not very optimistic about this being any better.

Motion5625d ago

Yeah, I have this on my PS3, but still got excited for a few seconds about a pc version. Then I remembered gta IV, which after 10 min of play wish I could delete from my steam account.

kevnb5625d ago

Bad port or not, just like gta iv the pc version will be much better

AKS5624d ago (Edited 5624d ago )

You'll probably need one of those new i7-2600Ks just to run the damn thing thanks to R*'s awful PC optimizations.

Rockstar launches official marketplace for mods

Rockstar has launched an official marketplace for "every server and every player" to buy mods: Cfx Marketplace.

I wonder how much of this isn't just taken work of others who have modded for free.

Edit: Also, great way for R* to take popular ideas and build them into GTAVI based on demand.

fr0sty134d ago

What I see happening here is, R* is going to ban mods in GTA6 UNLESS you buy them from the marketplace and R* then gets a cut of that sale.

ActualWhiteMan134d ago

Ah, perfect timing with them taking down the Bully online fan mod. Greedy a$$ company.

Christopher134d ago

It's okay as long as they get a cut of the money.

fr0sty134d ago

Expect R* to force it on you.

Snookies12134d ago

Yep, right there with you. I'll happily donate to a mod creator if it looks really cool, or if I enjoy it. But expecting payment up front? Nope, not touching it.

IanTH134d ago (Edited 134d ago )

I'm not entirely sure how to read this, as it doesn't seem exactly like an exact parallel to Bethesda's paid mods shenanigans.

Rather than single player stuff, this appears to be aimed solely on Cfx Servers. From what I've gleaned, apparently Rockstar bought the Cfx mod team several years ago, coming a few years after weird contentions led them to ban a few of their members. Ultimately, the question is if they plan to keep this contained to only online/servers.

I have to guess to a degree yes. It'd be pretty hard to "force" paid mods for single player when modding files locally on your own machine, but much easier for servers they'll control. So perhaps this is their soft launch ahead of GTA6 online and they'll clamp down more tightly on non-official servers going forward? Ever since they've become a 1 or 2 property studio, I haven't really cared much for Rockstar stuff, so I'm not entirely up on everything surrounding this. Sounds like it has the potential to be problematic further down the line, but right now fairly easy to ignore...I think lol.

Red Dead Redemption Hits 3.3 Million Netflix Downloads on Mobile

Red Dead Redemption hits 3.3 million Netflix downloads on mobile, underscoring how subscription access drives reach over paid sales.

More like people don't play these type of games on their phone normally and don't try them out. Not like the places where people do play these games haven't crushed those numbers easily.

How many people actually played more than an hour of the game or came close to finishing it on mobile is the real question. If people aren't playing the games to a point that is purposeful, then why try when a subscription that is behind a streaming service isn't a sign of success but just curiosity.

What if Netflix becomes ‘the Netflix of gaming?!’

Alek83136d ago

I downloaded it because I already have a Netflix sub.
I am not going to buy it for $40 or whatever it costs on Google Play.

I tried it out and will be sticking to the PC version, but it's not bad.

Having said that, this is the issues I see vs the PC version:
1. Greatly reduced texture resolution.
2. Massive downgrade ALL lighting quality (this includes water, shadows, etc).
3. Stutter and heat. Prolonged play leads to both.
On the plus side, we have:
4. This thing is like 6GB vs the 12 on Steam.

Great way to try the game, but not the best way to play it.

darthv72138d ago

Perhaps Netflix will make a RDR series now that ST is done with.

Lionsguard137d ago

A Netflix version of RDR?... Oh boy... I can't wait... /s

TheColbertinator136d ago

They should build a production that includes members behind the True Grit remake and Hell on Wheels from AMC. Both were perfect for wild west vibes.

gold_drake136d ago

but i doubt people ACTUALLY played it on smartphone vs tried it out.

Another free update...good to know but I don't own a series X

Petebloodyonion170d ago

I’m not sure what the exact issue is. I had no trouble getting the free update—you basically get the new game for free if you have the 360 version in your digital library. Maybe the problem is related to owning or not owning the Undead DLC expansion.

Hypertension140169d ago (Edited 169d ago )

Yea I think thats what it is. I also own the game but not the expansion, and im unable to download the update.
