Can't play GTA4

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Can't play GTA4

So have ordered Scarface (for the PC).

Have I made a mistake?

Well, its nowhere near as good as GTA4 (crash bugs aside)

Well, that's encouraging ;-)

I can't plat GTA4 either.

I've heard that Scarface is awful but I'm only going on what others have told me. It looked reasonable enough from what I've seen online about it.

Just Cause ftw. It has bugs too, and the graphics aren't as good as the 360 version (it's older) but man is it a funny, fun game. It's also really cheap to pick up.

This is still GTA we're talking about right?

No, Scarface.

If you don't mind swerving all over the road and having the police try to stop you every five minutes.

@Wings.... The first one is a given but the second... why ?

but, on topic , I'm still struggling with a push bike challenge in GTA SAN Andreas (well... games are meant to be fun).. Gonna dig my vice city version out later though.

GTA4, might do it in 3 years after they've fixed the gremilns (Quality assurance sucks at rocktar games these days then).... I thought console games were meant to work due to a lack of incompatibility blah. Am I nieve?

Off topic, I'm off to try your latest demo as soon as the kids are in bed.... cheers mad jack! - just as well you didn't quit - or I would have had you sorted.

It's a long plane ride from the 'old country' to the land of the long white cloud! So just as well I finished!

GTA4 isn't crashing for everyone, I've got 80%+ game progress and have had no issues with crashing or freezing at all on the 360.

Quite surprised, as most games seem to freeze up these days.

Ok

Just finished 5 hours on Scarface.
Reasonably entertaining - not as tight or well put together as GTA3 though.

I'm curious why you bought a game in the first place. Get a frisbee, those are way more fun. That's actually not a joke, frisbees are just awesome.

I don't like frisbees.

Ok - but they're kind of difficult to see at one in the morning?

Anyway- I'm getting into Scarface. I've sorted the driving, have figured out the gameflow and am busy expanding my empire. Some of the game design's quite clever. However the police were seriously hampering my fun - but I've figured out how they work.

Ultimate frisbee is fun.

Let's face it, frisbees are for retards.

You like the frisbee. You love it. You want it. FRISBEEEEEEE.

Juggling is fun too.

Oh hey, look at that, ultimate frisbee has a website ;) http://www.whatisultimate.com/

What a retarded site.

Check out the big black arrow that the designer thought would convey a sense of 'rotation' and 'action', but instead invokes a sense of 'retardation' as you realise it doesn't actually lead anywhere (go on, click at the arrow's end, see where it gets you). That's retarded.

Check out the quote top left;
"..ultimate frisbee combines speed, grace and powerful hurling..."
No. Speed + grace + POWERFUL HURLING = retarded.

And then there's the manchild atop the frisbee graphic, hurling discs of moulded plastic about and thinking it's not at all retarded. I'd like to see a dog run up and bite him.

Completely Retarded.

And don't even get me started on juggling.

I never even took a peek lol.

Juggling is for clowns :oP And they scare me.

(ross fails to mention he can't juggle worth ***)

Anyone who juggles in public and has no good reason to do so, should be arrested.

I always thought juggling 'because i can' was a good enough reason


What exactly happened to this thread?

It all started to go wrong when Plat wrote 'I can't plat GTA4 either. '

Finished Scarface the other night.

And as seems to happen with regularity in these sorts of games, I almost couldn't finish the game because of a broken mission.

The aim was to clear out 4 enemy camps on an island and 'liberate' 10 packages along the way. Just for fun though, the game decided that if I picked up a health pack anywhere, there was a 50/50 chance that I couldn't then pick up a package - just walk through it - which is gamebreaking.

But just for tricks, if success did seem near - the game would spawn unkillable enemies in the last camp. So I'd be holed up in the last camp, low on health, with one package to go, but guarded by invulnerable enemies and likely I couldn't pick it up anyway.

And when I died, the game would send me back to do the whole bloody mission over again (which is one reason why I hate consoles).

I had to cheat in the end, and it ruined the end-game. Way to go Vivendi.
