i got mine last night at the midnite release, i only played it for maybe an hour due to having to be up at 5am for work today, it was pretty cool, i didn't really do anything mission wise other then the "first" mission. I just kinda ran around stealing cars and punching old people in the head. can't wait to get outta here and play all night

Alright so those that have the game already, and has played both online and multiplayer.....Is the game worth it? I think it is ( and i didnt even play it yet). I am curious though what everyone else thinks, is it worth it? For people that do not own a system, would this game be worth it for them to go out and buy a system and the game? Then slowly build their game collection.

I personally want to get away from PC gaming so I am seriously thinking of going today and getting a system, game, and three month XBL haha.

I think that sounds like a good plan. This game is really good. Don't get the three month XBL. You get 1 free month when you make a new account and GTA 4 comes with 1 free month as well. so you have 2 months there.

I played the game for 20 mins and was amazed by it. It was a bit wierd to play though just because I haven't played the 360 in so long and it took a bit to get used to the controller :p

does anyone else find this game causes your PS3 fans to kick in after 20 minutes and pretty much stay that way?

Mine hasn't.. I've been playing it since around 12, its now 6pm, fan is still silent as normal. Also, the air coming out the back is a lot cooler than usual :s

I'm so glad I'm off work till next Tuesday :D

It's taken me some time to get used to the graphic style, reminds me of Burnout Paradise in a way. I haven't had any serious slowdown on the PS3 but there have been moments where it has a very noticeable dip. Not noticed any serious pop-in yet though :)

My PS3 copy is running in 720p by default instead of 1080p :/

Happen to anyone else?

natively PS3 is running at 630P (default) and the xbox is running at 720P (default) This is being reported on most of the sites, including Sony and MS sites. I personally have the 360 copy as the majority of people I know are on 360, however the people who bought the PS3 version are saying the same, their TV's are set auto and it runs at either 576P, 630P or 720P :(

However that should not detract from the game, its awesome, no matter what platform you play it on :)

Ok, cool. Now the most brilliant question of them all: How in the hell do I get to the multiplayer? lol

Access your mobile (up on the D-Pad) and the access the phone menu and choose Multiplayer :p

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By sphbecker · Posted

      All versions is correct. The bug appears on any version of Windows with KB5094126 installed. It's a little insane to expect the author to explain that systems that can't possibly have that patch installed, will not experience the bug. If you have any gripe about the title, it would be that it doesn't mention the update at all, but I wouldn't agree with that either. A title is not expected to be a full summery of the article.

    • Report: iPhone Air isn't dead, and a second-generation model is planned for 2027

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By sphbecker · Posted

      You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.
