Jeez, maybe I should have got that one then.Costanza said:Not that I've heard.

I may still pick it up if there is some sort of patch.
Also, what is you GT Benjamin? I've meant to add you since you made the Rock Band thread.
No save anywhere, you can only save between missions by going back to the dorm or school office.Rhindle said:OK, before I crack this thing open: what's the save system like?
This wouldn't be so bad if it has a save anywhere system, but I don't remember the PS2 version supporting that.
Alright, expect one from monkyofdoom. I am in for GTA on day one also.BenjaminBirdie said:KidInsomnia, but my list is carrying around a lot of water weight right now so don't be offended if I can't approve you right away. It might sounds like typical Ben, but a bunch of my Real Life Friends have finally jumped in for GTA4 (I'M SERIOUS) so I'm cutting down a lot of trees to make room. But definitely drop a line.

Ugh.
Well WTF has Toronto done? Warriors but that was 3 years ago (2005) . . . and I've never been able to play my copy since it isn't BC on the 360. I gave my original xbox away.DevelopmentArrested said:Rockstar Toronto > Vancouver.

Mutagenic said:Who cares if Rockstar had someone else do the port? Rockstar is responsible for the title, regardless. They're the ones to blame for letting the game get released in such a state. Damn.

What has R* Toronto been working on?!?!?!

Didn't think about that...Ploid 3.0 said:Don't blame Rockstar, they had to kick this out before GTA4 could effect sales. No other choice.

Mine seems to freeze when the mist graphic occurs, like when you throw stink bombs and the green mist appears, it freezes. Froze just now on me like 4 times in a row. Thanks Rockstar you have joined the ranks of EA for this crap. Going back to EB tomorrow.
I think we can be sure the crashes are totally random by this point.Froze three times on me so far over the course of four or five hours. Every time it's been when I'm getting chased or I'm mixed up in a fight with multiple opponents. Not cool. Only thing we can do right now to lessen the sting is save as often as possible.
I've also noticed one second audio pauses while running around or interacting with people and while they aren't game breaking, they're definitely getting annoying.
I'd like to see pressure put on Rockstar to address these fixes in a patch but I'm not gonna get my hopes up.
So R* shouldn't be held responsible for releasing a crappy/subpar port of an old last-gen R* game because of a new R* game?Ploid 3.0 said:Don't blame Rockstar, they had to kick this out before GTA4 could effect sales. No other choice.

Costanza said:I was bored and came up with an analogy for this situation...
Let's say you have a baby (Bully), but your job (GTA 4) is too demanding right now and to make sure your baby is getting taken care of (it didn't sell well on the PS2) you have to hire a sitter (Mad Doc), but you don't really check out her references (past projects).
You go to pick your baby up one day (few weeks ago whenever the game went gold) and you find out the baby got all fucked up because the sitter dropped it on the floor. There's no going back from that and you're stuck forever (releasing the game in this state) with this kid that has to wear a helmet for the rest of its life and has seizures (freezing in game) all the time. This is what happened with Bully for the 360.
Surfheart said:Think I'll go for the Wii version too.
Impressions stat Agent!
just get it for the WiiXirj said:Haha best analogy ever. G'damn I was looking forward to playing this game since everyone said it was funny and was actually anti-bullying.
_leech_ said:Sounds like Bully is Rockstar's Resident Evil 4. Port it quick, get the cash, use it to work on the important stuff.
gray_fox224 said:Wow. STFU and GTFO. You're crazy.
speculawyer said:I sympathize with your issue and R* does deserve some bitching assuming the problems are real. However, an outfit called 'Mad Doc' software did the port, so they get the main blame.
If the project was farmed out to the developer by the publisher then I agree blame does rest ultimately with the publisher.Rayne.S said:Take 2 and Rockstar have final responsibility in delivring a quality product... the dev is not to blame.
SpokkX said:wait.. so the Wii version has a better framerate than both the 360 and PS2 versions?
Bildi said:If the project was farmed out to the developer by the publisher then I agree blame does rest ultimately with the publisher.
To me it's the same as if you're an employer and one of your employees fucks up. It would be pretty spineless to go to the client and say: "oh, it's not my fault, my employee fucked up". Ultimately, it's the employer's responsibility.
StevieP said:Apparently so. Doesn't look as "nice" as the 360 version, mind you, but it certainly looks quite a bit better than the original PS2 version.

Really??pilonv1 said:PAL version seems fine a few hours in.

Sir Fragula said:Really??
Please, PLEASE keep us updated. I was due to buy this one on Friday.
Which country are you in BTW? I'm in Melbourne and it wasn't on shelves todaypilonv1 said:2hrs+ in and no issues. I have someone on my friends list who's played 3hrs+ with no issues.
