Cool video, I believe its from the Playstation gamers day in London. Don't think it's private beta footage, at least according to playstation boards, neat find though anyway ;D

GTA IV patch is out people, downloading right now. Not sure what it specifically addresses but I found this article. http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=137406 Rockstar and Sony plans to patch the PS3 version of Grand Theft Auto IV today to improve the multiplayer experience. Speaking to Eurogamer, a Sony source explained that the patch would help by "reducing the loads on the servers at GameSpy and hopefully the completely random hangs that some users have seen". PS3 owners who bought GTA IV last week have had to endure problems connecting to the multiplayer service almost from day one. What's more, some reported random crashes, for which Rockstar suggested that erasing game data and reinstalling as a possible solution. This week, UK chart monitor Chart-Track reported that 926,000 copies of GTA IV were sold during its first week on sale here - with 413,000 of going to PS3 owners.

Ya there about 2 years late on that one, along with the map packs that people waited over a year for. Nice gesture but its like throwing some shinny rims on a shitty car, rims look nice but the car is still shitty.

Maybe it is including the special edition box set that sold for 80 or 90 also? -
I think Brucie is funny as hell, always talking about being genetically superior and being an alpha male, too funny.

The game is extremely addictive. I enjoy the online modes with my clan, of course some things need work but what doesn't right after its release, I would wait on a patch before you write off the online mode altogether. Booting and hit detection need some work IMO but I think once R* gets their patch out these things will be addressed.

I can't wait to see it, previews look amazing

I use to play Mario Cart all the time on my SNES, that game was so much fun. Makes me want to buy a Wii just for that game.

If your school uses Websense, most likely all proxy sites will be blocked or at least should be. It's a default if I remember correctly. And if you find a new site that does work its only a matter of time be websense catches it and adds it to its database.

Sid my understanding is that not only this game but almost all graphically intense PS3 games are created to run in 720P thus its native resolution. A couple PS3 games are mastered in true 1080P, but not many. However since your PS3 can upscale 720P resolutions to 1080i or 1080P you can trick your PS3 into bypassing the native resolution which it picks up automatically by modifying your display settings in the XMB. This is also true with COD4. Maybe Goat or someone else can give you a reason that most games aren't being mastered in 1080P yet, but this is my understanding of it all, I could be wrong.

He already did: http://www.urgentfury.com/uf_forum/index.php?topic=7561.msg70082#msg70082 ty Interesting I usually dont check that board out....I give up then lol.

My vote is for none of those people And besides if Tow really wanted to know it's not like he couldn't compare IP addresses with those users listed, my bet is none of them.

Gotcha, I have never tried it before on COD, I will try it tonight and see if I notice a difference. My Blu Ray player is my PS3 and I have around 12 Blu Ray movies. They look great btw. I have had the set for almost a year now and have loved every minute of it. I feel ya on the salesman thing, I just like to buy the newest latest greatest toys lol And I since I bought the tv and the ps3 at the same time I thought I would be getting the Blu Ray benefit. Thanks again for the input everyone
-
TY Goat!!!! Screw you Tool!!! Thanks Kill!! and I guess thanks Tool So its all really personal preference as far as upscaling, I will mess with those settings tonight Goat, thanks again.
-
Ok, I see Ya I'm not a A/V noob, but I get confused and with all the reading I have been doing it was becoming more confusing lol Probably just confusing myself more than needed. So is the general consensus that playing the game in it's native resolution is the better of the two options visually?
-
TY I so when I manually uncheck 720P and 1080i in the XMB, your telling me that it's still only displaying 720P even though it shows and tells me that its 1080P? I thought that it upscaled it to from its native 720P to 1080P, not true 1080P but upscaled.
-
Damnit Tool Figure it out for me already lol

I have some questions about graphics, specifically for this game but I guess it also relates to games that are natively displayed in 720P. Just when I think I have a solid understanding of my HDTV and my PS3, I still get confused and have some questions. My setup: Samsung 50'' DLP 1080P, 80GB PS3. 1. If a game is natively displayed in 720P, is this the best possible resolution for viewing? Even if your TV or PS3 or both can upscale to 1080P? 2. Anyone that is playing GTA IV right now with a similar setup which are you using? Everything that I have been reading says it just a preference, and to be honest even on my 50'' I'm not sure I can tell the difference. I can force the game to be displayed in 1080P by unchecking the 720P in the XMB. Beginning load screens look more vibrant but once the game loads I'm not sure I notice the difference. I also noticed that COD4 is like this aswell but I never tried to force that game at 1080P, I have always just went with what my PS3 and TV auto-detected. So what is everyone in the community using for their setup with their 1080P sets. Are you using the native 720P or up-scaling to 1080P and thoughts???? Also what are your custom setting in game, ex Brightness, Contrast, Saturation? I found the defaults to be off a bit myself. TIA
