    Buy a PS3. You could probably get one cheap enough now. Second hand if you want cheaper again. You don't want to be sitting there watching everyone else playing, do you? :p

    Or better yet, I'll sell him my old 360 for 20quid.

    It RRoD'd, but my friend did some trickery to extend it's lifespan since it broke the week before the Slim's were released. I reckon it has about two weeks of non-stop playing in it before it dies again. :P

    I had a 360, barely ever touched it and then it died. I fixed up the piece of shìt and used it to just stream stuff through it.

    I'm done with the consoles, I'll just have to watch everyone's videos on YouTube and daydream :pac:

    You see, that was your first mistake ;)

    Get yourself a PS3. At worst you'll be getting a blu-ray and media player afterwards. Plus, you get to play games on one disc, unlike on the 360 :pac:

    This is quite good. A collection of 58 screenshots released so far.

    I fear that this trailer will just be a literal translation of stuff we found out from the mag. I hope there's something new


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 292 ✭✭Rushden


    More screenshots and information I get, the more impatient I become

    Do you think after the trailer tomorrow things will slow down again in terms of new info? It could be anything up to 6 months before release which is depressing me as I type it! :(

    It'll probably quieten down over Christmas and the new year I'd say.

    Reckon the next substantial thing we'll see will probably be in February, whereafter it'll start to build and build again.

    I hope in the game there is a real presence of celebrities that are evident throughout the game. Not just some director you have to do missions for eventually but you see famous well known actors out and about.

    I doubt it, There would be a big chance of rockstar getting sued for "Passing Off".

    You may have spoofs of famous actors wandering about, i suppose we'll see. I still remember the laugh it was in Saints Row 3 when
    You meet the mayor, who turns out to be Burt Reynolds :D

    He voiced Avery Carrington in Vice City too

    Didn't R* say that they were moving away from including big name celebs in the game?

    Seriously does anyone not feel one of the characters should have been a 20 something year old Cesar or Jesus from South Central? Personally I will never be the fat old guy or the redneck.

    Oh well I meant 'well known' in the gta universe, doesn't have to be real life celebs.

    You've posted this point about four times already. You have seen pictures of the characters. Nothing else. Relax a bit.

    Franklin is a 20-Something year old from South central.

    In fairness you'd wet yourself if the main character was based on Justin Bieber.

    Personally, I like the idea of playing as a hardened warts-and-all criminal rather than a predictable and shallow 'gangsta'.

    If it weren't for the fact they've said no SA characters would return, I'd guess it was Cesar's son. :P

    You'll probably have no choice but to play all the characters at different points in the game to advance the plot.

    They appeared a lot in the first trailer, so hopefully they are. I want to see what happens when one blimp hits another (seriously, will they just bounce off each other?), when you shoot a blimp, and for some strange reason, what would happen if you hit the blimp with the train...

    What would happen if you landed the blimp infront of an oncoming train on that bridge over the canyon..... Ughhhhhh I want this game :D

    2 things;

    I love how it says "see the stars" over what could be the most amount of virtual light pollution i think i've ever seen in a game. :pac:
    No way you'll be able to see any stars there.
    However, that gets me excited to see the night sky over mount chillad. :D


    Onto your point-
    I heard someone, i think it was ign, speculate how not many recent screens have had the blimp in the shots over the city.
    I suppose if its not seen tomorrow in the second trailer then it could have been removed.

    I see what your saying, but if the blimp is in V would it not just be a random object, that your not able to do anything with. Like say a tree or the planes in IV.

    I would have thought they were talking about stars as in celebrities, with it being the GTA version of Beverly Hills and such!
