GTA V - General Thread

[ZeroTheNorth]

Oh YES. Im getting this on the PS4 and on the PC! Its party time!

 

[GTboyz]

I'm actually sad, i told myself after my ps3 got ylod last week that i'll stop gaming forever as i don't have any interest on buying next gen. Apparently its gonna change now. Gaaaaah now i need to choose between ps4 and xbone since Forza Horizon 2 got me a bit interested but all my friends will be playing ps4. Instead ps4 got stuck with Drive Club and GT7 which im a bit sceptical about.

Looks like i have found a new motivation to start looking for my first part time job..

PS4, once PSNow is worldwide it'll kill XB1 for good I think. I've held off from buying either (and was expecting to buy both), if PSNow also becomes a PC service (as some people are suggesting) I may have owned my last console.

No console is going to 'kill' the other. XBOX has HD Halo, Forza, quite a few other exclusives. MS will be fine.

That said, if one platform does have an advantage this generation, it's PC.

By "platform" I didn't mean the casing, rather the actual platform. All three of this generation are the same platform and mostly the same API. No console is going to be killed by the other, rather I believe that they will simply no longer be required. Bad news for gamers overall but the big publishers will buy into that, we know how much they hate the uncontrolled physical-media market from sheer experience.

If MS do provide a similar service (and the tech is there, if unproven in such bulk) then we will see the end of the consoles insofar as a console is a bespoke, closed, standalone lump.

Additionally, remember that you could theoretically run something like PSNow on a muuuuch smaller system than an actual PS4, the bulk of the operation is receiving/displaying credible HD. Everything else is very narrow-band controller output.

PC time! No need for me to own a console anymore

 

[Davidies]

I just saw the trailer for PC/PS4/XBOX GTA V.

And goddamn do I hope the PC I'm getting will be able to run it. (Even if that means the lowest setting)

 

[yabiggoose]

I'm in a pickle where it'd probably be cheaper to buy a ps4/xbone than to upgrade my pc to 'current gen' specs.

 

[chromatic9]

Glad I waited. Said last year I only want to experience it on either a new console or PC.

Even predicted The Last of US would be remasterd on PS4, said it would be a full HD version. Some got upset and called me crazy. To me its a given.

 

[20832]

Although I own the game on X360 already, I'm totally going to buy it for PC, simply for the better graphics and modability, which they've hopefully kept in the game!

Beyond stoked

 

[Nurburgthing.]

Anyone think R* will up the room limit from 16? Would 32 players be impossible on next gen stuff?

Why stop there? I want to make 64 player jet battles.

 

[E28]

64 players would be amazingly terrifying. Imagine the Vinewood LSC/Eclipse Towers area.

You'd join a random session and the minimap would look like a 14-year olds face. Funnily enough that would mean you could switch the minimap with a video camera and for most of the players online there would be no difference.

 

[VXR]

I'm torn, I've spent a lot of time in single player so would I really want to play through it again with better graphics? The lighting of the current version is so good it easily masks the shortcomings of the rest of it.

If it comes with more land, then I'd be all over it.

 

[driftinziggy]

I'm a gamer on a budget so buying a new console and game is out. I will just keep playing the current versions and hope for good updates.

So yeah. Now on Steam too.

 

[chromatic9]

So hyped by this trailer. I can tell this game will last me a long time.

That does look absolutely stunning. The highway scene looks very realistic in my opinion.

On a side note, does anybody know the song from the trailer. I quite like it.

@chromatic9. You rock so hard. Thank you. And damn that was quick.

It's one of the songs played on Radio Mirror Park.

I'm more of a Channel X and Vinewood Boulevard Radio guy. I don't think I have ever turned on Radio Mirror Park. I'll have to check it out.

 

[Daniel]

It's one of the songs played on Radio Mirror Park the best radio station in GTAV.

FTFY.

Sleepwalking is probably the best song they play on there, IMO. I used to just solely listen to Radio Mirror Park but now I alternate between FlyLo FM, Worldwide FM and Soulwax FM.



Sleepwalking will always remind me of listening to BBC Radio 1 the night before GTA V's release and Lazlow being interviewed on the show, and then them playing this.

 

[Ken]

Well I guess that settles it. I need to get out of the GTA V radio comfort zone.

 

[driftinziggy]

I loooove Nissim by Gaslamp Killers on Worldwide FM!

 

[Daniel]

I think my favourite's The Set-Up by Favoured Nations.


Also, for anyone interested - the entire RMP playlist.

 

[Dan]

I like Soulwax FM, Worldwide FM, FlyLo FM, Vinewood Boulevard Radio, Los Santos Rock Radio, and Nonstop Pop FM. I occasionally listen to the radio station that plays Neon Indian - Change of Coast (I forgot the name, but I think it's Radio Mirror Park).

Some of my favorite songs in the game are:
Pulp - After You; Really gets me in the mood while driving at high speeds
Richard Spaven - 1759 (Outro); I love flying around LS at night in a helicopter with this playing in the background
Django Django - Waveforms; Great song by a great band. I'm so glad GTA V introduced me to them
Candido - Thousand Finger Man
Machinedrum - She Died There; I love this song, but when I first heard it, I always thought it was saying "She fly low, she fly low, she fly low" as something the radio DJs added in just for the station
Most of the songs on FlyLo FM
Neon Indian - Change of Coast; It just makes me happy
This one electro-rock song, I think it's called Feel The Same. It's on one of the stations near 9:00 on the radio wheel
Wavves - Nine Is God
Queen - Radio GaGa; One of my favorite songs by the greatest band ever
Stardust - Music Sounds Better With You; My "good moments" song. I always have a good moment before or after I switch to Nonstop Pop FM when this song is on.
