When I get it I have no way of putting it onto my other machine. I.e. I get it, can't put it onto DVD. It'd be ok if I bought it, which I obviously will do.

I'll probably get it! 585801959[/snapback] *CLAPS* My god you lot are slow. If you get something as a DVD and can't burn it, and there is no network to transfer it to the gaming rig before emulating it on a virtual drive you cannot play it. Hence without a DVD burner, I wouldn't be able to play it unless I split it up into little CD disks. I knew Neowin was full of goodies goodies who buy their windoze and everything but still......

piercehead Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Is Sensayshun saying he's got 1 machine with DVD that he's not going to play it on mainly, and another without DVD that is his main gaming machine?? If so, he didn't really explain it well.

lnmnky Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 No he's saying he's a warez monkey and he would need a dvd burner to play it because the downloaded ISOs would be too big for a normal cd (which would work on most games as they use multiple cds instead of dvds.)

sto110 Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 dittoman 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) NICE, i like :) 585801006[/snapback] yeah i have a similar setup and mine is starting to show its age also, still good for a while though, i think in about 6mo to a year ill do a complete upgrade rather then swap out parts....although i got a gig of ram which helps out a TON and i have the 2.66 pushed up to 3ghz Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/310726-grand-theft-auto-san-andreas-pc-preview/page/2/#findComment-585803126 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensayshun Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Guess he doesn't know how to use Daemon Tools then :p 585803089[/snapback] God you lot are dense. Computer 1 - internet, no dvd burner, no network, can't play games Computer 2 - the one I want the game on, no internet, no network, only dvd reader. So I get the game have to split it into cd parts burn it then move it all across as cd's. I'm never posting a reply in a thread like this again, people just get confused.

machima Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 -bYtE,Apr 20 2005, 17:53]I really likted the previous GTA versions but San Andres doesn't interrest me one bit.. I hate the "gangsta" theme of the game, mabye it's because I hate rap music.. I don't know. The game look OK but I don't think I would be getting it though. 585801155[/snapback] Have you actually ever played the game? The whole gangsta theme dies off after you get out of the 1st city and it becomes something else. Sure the character still speaks ghetto but it's hardly like gangbanging is the only theme. lol.. everyone is saying how amazing it looks..... if u ask me it should just be an expansion for vice city. or maybe even a mod. 585802896[/snapback] If you ever played the game and saw first hand how insanely big the game space and missions are, you'd know how stupid you sound.

hotdog666al Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 My little brother got the PS2 game ages ago, haven't played it yet! Waiting for the PC version instead because we all know Liberty and Vice city were better on the pc than they were on the ps2!

dray_04 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 This is my #1 most anticipated game at the moment! This will surely decrease my examination marks by at least 20% P.S Anyone know of the recommended specs yet?
