Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas PC Preview


Recommended Posts

The cars don't look as shiny as they look on the PS2 version of GTA: San Andreas. The whole game looks smoother, thanks to anti-aliasing. I'm going to get this game once it's out.

Sweet. I can't wait for the PC version. I wish more publishers would put there games out on dvd. In this day and age, most people should have at least a dvd-rom drive anyway, and putting games out on 3 or 4 cd's is rediculous.

ditto

man my 9700 non pro, 512mb and 2.4 p4 are starting to show its age in modern games.

hopefully it can play this one good though (vice city was looking awesome on my setup)

But unlike the previous entries in the series, San Andreas also has a huge number of extra features and side games--like changing your appearance, learning to pilot a boat or helicopter, playing basketball, and even dancing--all of which will appear intact in the PC version.
If you want, you can simply drive across the entire length of the state of San Andreas, which is roughly five times the size of Vice City, without hitting a single loading screen.

NICE, i like :)

The game itself takes less than ten seconds (with a 3.2 GHz P4 and 1GB of PC3200 on the laptop), outdoor/indoor transitions are instantaneous, and cutscenes load whip-smart.

So not the best video card required, finally a game I want that doesn't require an upgrade of some sort.

Yeah, I forgot what though.

But I don't have a dvd burner :(

Means I have to get it, split it up into CD's move it across recompile it and then use alcohol 120%

:ninja:

But yeah, it looks ok, not as bad as VC which I thought looked horrible.

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
    • To be clear I'm anti trump, the bigger point is why review this game at all?
    • Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha.
    • That's a shame. The big Xbox reset when Phil and Sarah left and then Asha came on and brought a new team of executives, and all the layoffs last year and saying that the ABK merger wouldn't result in redundancies I am surprised they are calling for yet another reset and yet more layoffs.
