GTA IV was better

goddammit I fucking hated GTA4

sleeping dogs

GTAV

It had fun shooting and was long, i like getting a long polished game for my money.

The sound track was the third best in the entire series, behind San Andreas and Vice City.

The driving and tire physics were overblown, but were still somewhat realistic. Snap oversteer, throttle off understeer, realistic representations of drive types, it was all done very well in 4.

The story, while too serious for a GTA game, was actually very well written, and on par with some of Rockstar's greatest works. Characters meant something, and the only real fault is the garbage "choices" every couple of missions.

...

It was boring as fuck. I tried to finish it 3 times, every time I lost interest and quit.
The balad of gay tony was pretty good though. Didn't care for the lost and damned.

Gay Tony was a lot better i agree, it should have been longer though.

Look amigo, extremists already look retarded enough without your help.

Basically my only problem with the game. Fantastic story, but I don't know who the retards were that decided it was a good GTA plot.

Uh-oh, reddit please.

...

But muslims beheading people are just "peaceful moderates".

It's painfully obvious, these lefties stick out like a sore thumb but the idiot whining about "extremists" is just as bad.

On a technical level, yeah. There's plenty to love in GTA4 like the attention to detail in the environment and there were loads of things to do, but I just had more fun with Saints Row 2. The character customization in that game was insane, I loved the radio stations in that, there were so many fun side diversions, it walked a great line between serious and complete fun, the world was colorful and vibrant, though I guess the main deciding factor is which you played them on. SR2 on PC is dogshit and 4's port isn't any better but at least works.

No, they're radical.

Rad dude!!!! Extreme rapefugee skating 1989!!!!

Do you know why we have speed limits?
It's because the average road tyre can't handle speeds beyond Highway limits.
And the reason Highway limits and Roadway limits are different has to do with the fact that a highway is mostly straight whilst a roadway can be any number of things.
It's like this: The faster you go the less grip you're going to have because the energy of the car is being directed towards the orientation of which you were accelerating towards before you tried to make that turn.
The turning potential of a car is on a lag because the mass and energy that is put into a car has to catch up with where the acceleration is being directed.
If you really want to make a turn you slow the fuck down because you'll have less energy and mass to worry about breaking traction. and heres where we get into things like Torque Vectoring and other very extremely advanced mechanics of driving.

The fact of the matter is, treat it like a fucking real car and drive smoothly, maintain traction and fucking hit you apexes you fucking dumbass.

Except Saints Row 3, except Red Faction Guerilla, except Postal 2

It also remains unsurpassed as the worst fucking port in history

What the hell is being reflected in the SR pic?

Just kill yourself already.

Everything cant be perfect. There are pros and cons to different development styles. Welcome to reality.

That being said, I really miss the candy paint option from saints row 2.

It''s still available in 3 and beyond but it doesn't actually do anything, unlike in 2.

The only thing SR3 did better than 2 was the port. Everything else was gimped.

SR3 is worse than 2.
SR2's crazy shit juxtaposed with the more realistic setting with the characters doing wacky things in a believable world.
in SR3 they cranked the insanity up so everything is "lolsorandumb" and as a result the insanity of what the player is doing very quickly starts losing its comedic effect.
SR3 also didn't have the intro videos to the diversions which tended to be hilarious

I felt like the story (cinematic presentation of events),the soundtrack and the driving improved at the detriment of nearly everything else.

Vid related. I feel like the presentation of this mission was one of the greatest moments in the series. Show me a better one.

one and done OP. Lame ass game

Ignore that video, the dumbass poster had the music turned off

youtube.com/watch?v=hR2abAqkj9k

it's not really fair to compare anything to ubisoft games considering the company has spend nearly 11 years doing nothing creative and has effectively been producing shallow AAA experiences at the lowest cost, effort, and in the least time possible.

Saints Row 3's missions were certainly crazy overall, and when it did it right it did it very very right, but far too many of them were just the game forcing you to do what SR2 treated as optional minigames
the world is boring and bland, and they don't do anything with the few interesting landmarks they have (seriously, the gothedral is one of the biggest wastes of potential in the whole thing)

This game had better gameplay.

This game had better characters, story, and somewhat slightly more intelligent humor.

TLATD then came along and had the single best story and characters in the entire series, the best atmosphere, and the best ending.

But what's truly important in these games?
Depending on what you want out of them, your pick will be obvious.

GTA:IV's story was a brutal criticism of the united states as it is now in relation to immigration
Were it not for the fact that its a GTA game and therefor must be lowbrow violence, and the fact that 99.99% of SJWs are hypocritical self-rioguthous basters that one guy from the fine young capitalists seemed to be the only "sjw" who acted as if he genuinely trying to help marginalized people the game would be the golden standard of what SJWs want games to be like. This is directly related to why GTA IV's story was so fucking unenjoyably.
It had an honest to god multicultral cast without throwing it into your face every fucking second
Eastern European immigrant
Puerto Rican immigrant
Jamaican immigrant
Irish-American, with Packie's story being about the decline of the significance of his Irish heritage in the modern united states
((Kibbutz))
African American who had a hard fucking life and is sympathetic
A well off African American who turns to a life of crime and is fucking insufferable; probably also a stab at Malcolm X, who literally preached racism; although the SJWs never say a damn word ill about him
Evil morally ambiguous white lady who betrays you
And the main antagonists are both fair-skined mafia leaders

It was a well written attempt at capturing the plight of immigrants in the united states that was slammed for being GTA by thous who would; were it not for the hypocrisy mentioned above, have praised it and ignored by most people because, guess what? the plight is fucking brutal and depressing.

That's objectively wrong, I can't remember a single fucking track from that shit. Modern day soundtracks are shit because it's already a common place thing, where as 80s and 90s music isn't.

THIS IS YOUR MOTHERFUCKING INVITATION
THE LAST YOU WILL EVER NEED
any ost that includes badass shit like fucking Mastadon is up there with me
Oh, and the classical music selection is top tier, as well

Are you talking about this song ?

Uh… yes. I blame my error on the fact that I am shitpisting from work.

SR3's gameplay doesn't even match the supposedly whacky story. Before you apply lots of bonuses into health/DR you are stupidly easy to kill and have to slowly plink guys from cover in between cutscenes showing you as a super badass.

SR2 balanced out health fairly nicely, with regen being so slow you're unlikely to get it until combat is over.

Found the casual trash.

Nigga what?

Whats it like having the rare genetic disorder of not being able to read past the first sentence of a post?

He was talking about GTA4's soundtrack, not SR2s ya idjut

The bush is secondary, the main character's textures are awful in that video

This proves what?

Hide, report and move on, /cuteboys/

They mostly care about having female mc's (displacing the white male) and progressive settings. Everything else is irrelevant to them.

...

Purple dildos were the entire game. Dead Rising did dildos better.

Its was literally kike propaganda. I am surprised people don't knock that game for it more.
You play as an illegal immigrant doing criminal shit and helping other criminals. For a game taking place in America its surprising how few whites it has.

It's like you're not even aware that other GTA games even existed. Are you just retarded?


Volition was rushed to fuck with SR3. SR2 has a more interesting and varied city and a story that actually made sense. Fuck, SR4 was basically the apology tour for how fucked up SR3 was.

...

You encounter dildo once.


SR3 has better gameplay. Slogging through content of SR2 with it's terrible combat and driving feels like a torture after 3.


Sure everything you don't agree with is bait, mister reddit.

You can say what you want but I guess "polished" has a different meaning when it's a game then if it's a glorified tech demo. I'd rather have mechanics that enhances gameplay, rather then looks really good at ultra high.

Not in the slightest. Weapon upgrades were mandatory for enemies not to be bullet sponges, and character upgrades were mandatory for you not to be stupidly easy to kill.

Yeah and that one time was the entire game.

Honestly, I overall agree. But the gameplay in 2 isn't such a step down that I can just ignore that I have no real attachment to anything in SR3. And it's not nostalgia, because the first SR I played in full was 3, and I went back and played the patched PC version of 2 later. And while it doesn't seem like it's gameplay related, the fact that you can tell exactly where you on in Stilwater at anytime compared to the overall sameness of Steelport made it a less interesting city to navigate through. City design is a huge part of games like this, and I hope they do a better job if they make a part 5.

The driving in SR3 is great though. I would still sometimes drive in SR4, even though it was COMPLETELY POINTLESS, just because the driving felt good.

Yes, that is what you did with your shitty example. Do you understand how logic works?

Please just tell me you're "trolling." People as stupid as you make me want to kill myself. Someone back me up on this.

5 should just be a Vice Kings prequel (GTA and its clones are best when set in the past anyways) or a random Saint taking over a new city between 2 and 3.

That is 100% moving goalposts.

You're stupid. If you see pony fan art of your favourite game will it be ruined for you forever? I think it will be. Tell me your favourite game, user.


I see where you're coming from.

Ok.


Fuck this gay earth people as stupid as you CANT exist. It's not fucking possible.

Wut?

Pony fan art doesn't exist inside of my favorite game, Kirby's Superstar.

They are clearly high resolution. There is gritty detail in the characters jacket etc etc

The Saints Row ones are largely flat colors with no texture whatsoever.

Why do so many people talk about shit when they don't know anything. And then not only continue to be wrong, but insist they are right?

You'll never learn anything that way.

That sounds pretty cool, i will try it.

Try running are your living room in game like a jackass.

I did that for a bit, tripped on something, hit my face on a coffee table and died.

10/10

Just looking up on google pictures proves you wrong.

LEARN TO FUCKING READ OR LEAVE THIS PLACE FOREVER.

Whatever helps you sleep at night my little user

Go back to 4chan and never return.

SR3 is a massive downgrade in a lot of ways. The upgrade system is completely forced in since you cant even fucking dualwield early, theres no reason to do the side missions, the pacing is poor, the main baddy dies in the first 2 hours, character customization isnt as great in 2, and worst of all the boss turned into a pussy. Also Gat died off and Shaundi was a bitch.


Neither game really pushes tech, especially not Watch Dogs compared to the 2012 trailer.

I don't pay attention to them because they mean jackshit. Sometimes I can spontaneously change IDs six times in one thread, sometimes other people post from it.
I see what it is supposed to be, but it just doesn't work as intended, so it might as well not exist.

Mobile surfaces and real reflection are something that "pushes the tech." As in causes a heavy system load.

You can only put your points in so many buckets before you run out of points.

Isn't SR2 pc port SO BAD it literally does not work at all?

Huh, a semi-reasonable Holla Forums thread without much sperging and autistic screeching, got to take advantage of it while it lasts.

Personally, SR2 and GTA 4 were the best in seperate ways. Saints Row 2 felt as if you really created a character, and he was you. The story felt secondary to the game, but still was great in its own regards. The art was fantastic on the eyes, and felt as if everything was clean and polished. The real kicker though was the discovery of the game in itself, you were constantly finding new things to do, some that you just so happened to stumble upon out of nowhere. Many games tote a free open world experience in which discovery can happen, but SR2 really made it. It kept shit in mystery, and it let you find out about its features all on your own. Such as the driveby challenges or the fucking hookers in the gas station bathrooms, or waltzing in on an area in which had no place in the story what so ever, it was just this cool building that you could hang around and chill. It felt truly like you could believe the world around you, and you were a bystander in the game just roaming around.

GTA4 gave me vibes of just life, the game was so serious that sometimes you felt as though you were really just some dude in new york. The characters were uninteresting and acted like normal humans for the most part. Thats what the charm of it was though, it gave one of the most realistic experiences to date, and has yet to be surpassed. The story was also phenomenal and believable because as stated before, you could really say: "Yeah, that is probably how it would play out in reality"

...

Yeah, you need a fanpatch to make it even remotely playable.

San Francisco was great.

From the Share Thread's MegaArchive, here is a repack of it with the main fixer mod already applied, along with the audio mod (uses higher audio from the PS3 version I belive) and the slow down tool to increase stability (You have to tweak it to your system). Based off of the GOG release, the 30 FPS cap has been removed as I renember getting 40-50 when I was playing it. Archive password: {TheNameOfTheArchive}, the {} are required. It is a shame the DLC got canned for the is version as I can't simply copy over my PS3 game save and then finish the truck escort DLC mission with a higher frame rate, via CO-OP if seriously needed.
#F!7pNwTJxQ!P7P1RSGSPMwp93ez0CGEWw

I've spent countless hours fucking around in both games. I never understood why people hated GTAIV's driving mechanics, because I never found them hard to control.

This checks out

Friendly reminder

I'm no FPS guy, but last time I played my PS3 I went to try and go through Red Dead Redemption, and oh lord. The FPS is so bad, that I hope they port every exclusive PS3 game to the PS4. P5 shouldn't even be there.

The only thing that handicapped SR2 was the shit port it got.

Otherwise it's the best type of GTA game, probably better than Vice City even.

What reflections? Road reflections when it rains? That's nothing new to games, and even then something like Sleeping Dogs looks so much better and runs better at that.

So it had a chance before the edgy reboot, it's dead now. Let it die, Dragons Dogma could still make a good sequel.

What was so bad about it? I played it on 360 and the only thing was frame rate but it wasn't the worst

Does anyone genuinely like that character? I have no idea why they're forcing her so much instead of someone like SR2's Shaundi.

Reminder

Torrent the vanila pc port and try to play it.
Have fun.

Yup.

Guys, guys, let's not argue. It's simple: which one has better lewd mods?

She's terrible in 3, but much funnier in 4. 3 is just her going pic related, 4 is her playing off the tech illiteracy of other characters.

No user, that's compression artifacts.

Better graphic, better sounds, better gameplay, better driving, better gunplay, better and more fun story? Not to mention Laura Bailey's voice as female boss. SR3 was better in every aspect than SR2.

...

Fucking ungrateful cunt.

Mhmm yup not one yup mhmm

SR3 was objectively worse and you have brain damage.
