SPOILER FILLED Thread for Grand Theft Auto V for IMPATIENT PEOPLE - Read Rules in OP

See, there are these tiny details that piss me off in games; watching a stream just now, and a guy driving a car tried to drive through a tennis court, hit the net and bam, rock solid wall, the car got smashed on the front.

Edit: he just hit some swings near the beach, same thing.

So I just spent 10 grand modifying a car and I don't want to lose it. How does one purchase car insurance? Been looking for the option on LS customs with no luck.

As above you, what are the details on storing your car? Garage, parking space,? How does that work?

No idea. Even though I´ve played 7 hrs I feel like I have only scratched the surface.

Right now the garage next to my house will store my car and that´s all I know.

I´ve seen a buyable garage on the map though.

i think they will just tow it and you can recover it on the car impound
I recovered Franklin's car at the car impound you mention. Thing is his car is always in front of his garage no matter what so I am still a little worried about it.

This game is something else. It is everything I thought it would be and beyond. It truly is San Andreas 2.

Thanks dude. Just glad to hear there is still functioning garages. Hate to customise a car and not know where to put it.

Don't know if anyone actually posted it here. Non-spoiler screenshot comparision of both versions. Hover mouse for Xbox 360 version, unhover for PS3.

PS. It seems like the shadows are slightly better rendered on Xbox 360 version and also the vegetation (palms, trees) are made a lot better on 360. Apart from that - everything is quite the same. Great job, Rockstar!

I see a difference in the last pic as what you said about 360 having better palms and trees are true, though both versions are nearly the same!

Based on those I'd say the lod/pop-in is noticeably better on PS3.

EDIT: Yeah what Snake said ^

When you shoot enemies do they have wounds like in Max Payne 3? Ie exit/entry on any part of the body.

Haven´t noticed that - but I also haven´t payed attention.

You don´t ( or at least I didn´t ) get the MP3 slow-mo effect so it is hard to tell.

What I can say though is that shooting in a GTA game never felt better.

Guns have great sounds now, too.

Thanks - they really nailed the PS3 version this time. That's great, it was one of my main concerns with this game.
 

That's really weird though. The 360 versions looks actually better in all other places. Textures and shadows are slightly sharper on 360 and the foliage is slightly more detailed. No idea why exactly this spot looks better on PS3. But overall 360 seems to be the better one again.
 
Both are a jaggy mess. Still quite an accomplishment to be able to keep this running at a stable framerate on old hardware. Rockstar has done a great job especially compared to GTA4.

Going by this, the PS3 version beats it in areas and the 360 version does the same to the PS3 version. Either way both versions are fine and everyone wins!

One thing that I have noticed from all the streams is that you die FAST
Not sure if some of them were wearing body armor though.

No, 360 is the better one. That particular shot from Snake is cherry picked. Look at the other screenshots. 360 has sharper textures/shadows and more detailed foliage. It seems to have some anisotropic filtering too.

No it's not, in the last pic shadows are sharper on PS3.

so yeah, both version are pretty much identical.

These are just screenshots. I want to know about performance.

I don't give a toss if the palm trees look a tiny bit more refined on 360 or if Franklins ass looks slightly more round on PS3.

thats weird, in the third comparision, the palms look better and more detailed on PS3, and on the last one they look better on the XBOX. maybe something got mixed up?

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.

The foliage on the palm trees is obviously nicer in the 360 build.

So Glam, after all the waiting...is it fun?


It´s amazing. It´s the GTA I have been waiting for since San Andreas.

Probably the GTA most of us have been waiting for.

My expectations were high - V still managed to overwhelm me.

You´re gonna love it. Everybody will.

Some weird things going on with those shots. Either some of them are mixed or it's just a weird technical thing.

Ex. http://screenshotcomparison.com/comparison/41273

The PS3's ground textures against the hill (closer to the road) is sharper and more detailed.

Then on this one, it's reversed.
http://screenshotcomparison.com/comparison/41274

That for one is true but shadows sharper on 360 is bs.

The only place I can see it is on the first picture of the peer. Although this could be due to the peer's ground texture seems to be be better on 360

The screen shots comparisons change which console is on mouse out or mouse over for some reason.
May want to check the very top to see which console is what type.

i.e PS3 isn't always the mouse out one.

edit - Sorry, ignore what I said above. I thought I noticed that but it seems to be fixed now.

Glad to see that whatever version you are getting you are not going to be left with a more terrible one.
