Grand Theft Auto Grieving Thread - Yep, I've been drinkin' again...

[The Last Stand]

Funny how the characters start looking more tolerable in a vintage and more iconic fashion.

She almost looks like Isabella Rossellini from Blue Velvet. It's the hair.

They have Ocean View Hotel and it looks almost the same??? But they couldn't put in landmarks from III and San Andreas in IV or V.

It's called a homage. There were callbacks to the 3D era in IV and V. Based on your example, the cul-de-sac of Grove Street from SA is in V.

We should've seen the HD universe in the 70s/80s to modern day like they planned, instead of reselling this shit as a dlc pack.

I'm glad that they went into a modern take for VI instead of retreading the same ground from Vice City. However, I do agree with the point that they are trying to play both sides of the fence of a modern retelling of Vice City with established 80s nostalgia. Whether they succeed in that remains to be seen with their execution.

You can't BING BING WAHOO! for thousands of hours playing some shitty NES game, unless you're a speedrunner or a [t-slur] (same thing). Objectively, modern games bring much more value.

I know you're a troll, but I will let you know I do have thousands of hours in Pokemon games, which is considered BING BING WAHOO for the Game Boy/DS, and I objectively got more value out of them thanks to competitive/breeding/challenge runs ect. thru out the years, not to mention a giant collection that is counted in thousands by now, spanning over 20 years. I am not even counting romhacks or Showdown btw. You are objectively wrong and older games can definitely have replay value, but then again, what is new?

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!

All this GTA talk inspired me to get back into San Andreas. Any must have mods I am missing here?

SkyGfx apparently restores the PS2 version lighting. That should be good since the PC lighting is too flat.

Fuck modding this game tbh. What a pain in the ass. But still worth it.

The best visual mods for 3D GTAs would be the ones that preserve the PS2 aesthetic and natively support widescreen monitors.

Yeah that is pretty much what I'm doing. The problem is you need a lot of mods to get all the good stuff and fix all the technical issues. Then you need to downgrade the game and use a million different loaders and assign priorities to the different mods to prevent conflicts. Gave up on the HD textures but at least the rest is working. GTA4 is an absolute breeze compared to this. You don't really need anything besides Fusion Fix.

Herr Strauss you fucking jew kraut. You fucked it all up.
Yeah rd2 is great.

If memory serves, the first Rockstar title to show live gameplay in a trailer was GTA: Chinatown Wars. When I say live gameplay, I mean gameplay demonstrations in real time, not just clips of gameplay for trailer shots.

Those instrumentals were fire.

I was under the impression that older titles made fun of the modern culture of their respective times, not glamorise it.

Oh this one will make fun of modern culture too, but only the Florida Man/White trash/Redneck branches of contemporary Florida culture.

Everyone else will be praised/portrayed as cool and glamorous, because having a character like Luis Lopez who mocks everything, from the fake souls who try to fill the voids in their hearts with overpriced booze and STD-riddled cooze, to the overdramatic gay queens and moronic spic gangbangers he calls family, is problematic in today’s world and specially in the eyes of today’s “professional, mature” Rockstar Games. We got rid of the “boy’s club” and their nasty ways, dontcha know?

Meanwhile, the twerking black ladies and reckless off roaders will just exist as is.

What in the Jennifer Beals Annabella Sciorra Mercedes Reuhl?????

It sounds like it would have been fun. But Rockstar is too cheap (woke?) to even attempt it. Next thing you know they'd get the Duffer Brothers on board and if Kate Bush gets involved I'm going to have a heart attack. Spare her.

0/10 he didnt wake up in the mountains

GTAO be funny sometimes.

Uncle Trevor has lost it.

more like he has seen the people that voiced the characters being recalled and wants in again since the GTAO mansion DLC had michael and amanda VA coming back.

and that's after franklin and lamar VAs doing some work for the agency update a while back.

franklin and lamar VAs seem to be chill to be recalled faster than michael, north american niggerloving not included.
also their voices seem to have aged fine, it's not like futurama situation...

I legit hope that GTA 6 Online character models won't be as hideous as 5.
