Says someone is playing it right now. They must be doing some testing.


Still does
On PC it runs flawlessly now with everything turned up out of the box. I just re-installed it to try out icehancer v3 and was getting solid 60fps at 2560x1080.
Me too. The 'default' GTA4 runs sweet as a nut on current decent PC builds.
Different story when you add the Icenhancer 3 mod though.
i installed that last night, got better city textures, traffic mod, foilage mod etc, it runs so smooth, the AA it incorporates is so good and adds extra elements, so does the depth of field, though the water reflections are a bit OT. i just dont like how plae the characters look, is there any user configs for iCE3 ?
I only installed Icenhancer 3 yesterday, need to do some proper testing but I'm not as wowed as when I first used Ice 2.1. Maybe it's just because time has moved on a bit, I dunno.
I've downloaded the 'ultimate textures mod' for now, but again I'm not very impressed with that. Looks pants compared to watchdogs textures.
I also find the DOF incredibly buggy and inconsistent so have turned it off for now.
I also find the performance very up and down when trying to run at 60fps, 60hz, and SLI is totally buggy with light sources flickering everywhere, so have to run on just one card for now.
Most of all, and this is nothing to do with the mod, I find the controls for GTA4 awful now after playing WD for a month. It just feels so awkward and laggy (using a 360 pad by the way).
Hopefully it's not £49.99
You can't pre-order anywhere yet can you? Aside from key sites which, while they're a good price, seem a bit shady when there's no confirmed prices anywhere else.
Good to know, cheers. May just get a pre-order in with them, can always cancel if it gets cheaper elsewhere. Wouldn't surprise me if this was around 50GB so I'm with ya on the slow internet thing.Amazon have it for £35 pre order.
Due to the slow state of my connection, I will be getting it as physical copy. Hopefully it will include a proper map and game manual as well.

Max Payne 3 using same engine that ran perfectly on PC.
May Payne 3 ran fine, but was a 35 GB install. I'm not complaining, just curious what the size will be for GTA V.
