you have £450 to buy PS3 stuff what do you get?

I admit it looks good - play the demo first though as I found it completely boring!!!

I've bought it from the US store, it's original and fun but it's a pretty niche puzzle game. I'd only recommend it if you're into logical problem solving games.

R-Type though, if you can get an Entropay account and US store account setup definitely grab it for some retro greatness.
 
first impressions

GT5P : Graphics are pretty good albeit a little bit bland. The cars look nice though :D But it certainly looks HIGH DEF.


COD4 : Awesome Graphics! Looks HIGH DEF Only did the first 2 levels on Recruit (coz they said i would suck badly at anything higher as i can barely make the 60 second training time) But its not as bad or as un-intuitive as i thought it would be using the analogue controllers for aiming and moving (legacy southpaw) obviously i still cant shoot for *** but nm. Certainly the best graphics and introduction ive seen in a PS3 game (possibly pc game as well)



GTAIV : PLayed this one last... had sky high expectations unfortunately. The first thing you notice is

a) Does not look HIGH DEF
b) its blurry (and not talking about objects in distance haziness which i like actually)

b 2) Its VERY DARK!! i had to turn up ingame brightness and contrast to near maximum so i could see parts of the screen

c) Its a little bit "chuggy" ie little bit slowdown in it.

d) Inconsistent criminal/stars system. I was mowing down countless peds and was only 1 star threat level.

However i did run over at least 6 police officers at one point and my threat level went up to 6 stars (im sure it was). But they only sent the swat vans after me.

Thats the only bad points (though imo a) is a major one)

What is awesome about the graphics is that the lighting is awesome, the artistic feel is impressive as well. The perspective when you look around is cool as well.

The amount of graphical detail is superb (differring weather conditions and rubbish on the street etc)

car handling is more realistic (it feels anyway) and more dangerous hehe.
Its an improvement over previous GTAS imo.

It does seem to be an updated version of GTA san andreas/gta3
Havent noticed anything different yet but i was only free roaming around town.
 
im just saying going from gt5p and cod4 to playing gtaiv the resolution wise is lower and so is a little bit disapointing.

edit: hrmm maybe thats just its style as it does have a sort of 'pastels' look.
