Noticed there is a GTA III app for Android. £2.99.

Tried it briefly on my brothers Xoom (tablet)...looked pretty good and controls seemed ok.  Not bought it for my Sensation yet but tempted (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/chiny.gif)

I have it on the iPhone & iPad, it is great on the iPad but fiddly on the iPhone.
Amazing as it is though to have it as a mobile game though! (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/up.gif)


GTA V -

I was watching that the other night when I couldn't sleep.... Can't wait. A rumour going around is if you drive from the center of the city out to the country side it will taje 15 mins (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/shame.gif) (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/up.gif)

Thats pretty good for L.A. (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/wink.gif)
Just been looking at some stuff, and it looks truly HUGE, the mountain in the video actually looks like a mountain, there's also a few interesting cars (and aeroplanes see the fast jet?) in the video incl what looks like a 3rd gen/2nd gen F-Body hybrid about 3/4 of the way through.

On the Aeroplanes note, GTA San Andreas had planes and they were a good addition to that game even on its scale which will be many times smaller than V by the looks of it.
I also hope they don't include Las Vegas this time, (it seems its all LA based) as the whole LV Strip & Casino rivalry thing has been done so many times its getting a bit old.

I'm sure there will be a load of new info this year as from that vid it looks like they're pretty well into development, it also looks a little better than GTA:IV but not too much so you won't need a Monster PC to run it, as the game will still be using the GTA:IV engine just tweaked a bit.

Looking forward to playing this (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/cool.gif)

L.A Noire was O.K - There was a funny bug that I Googled and changed a setting for to sort out, but apart from that it was O.K.

Probably passed time for an upgrade, though, anyway.  (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/rolleyes.gif)

Yup definately, possibly CPU upgrade IF the system board can take a higher CPU (will have a look when next over at the system board make/model), if not then poss new CPU & m/b combo (there are some good deals on OverClockers at the min for mobo / cpu / ram combo deals)

I think it's mostly old stuff, that i wasn't sure if you ( A ) needed it or ( B ) we'd copied elsewhere, probably worth a 10/15 min go through and check and delete if not.

ALso, somewhere in that folder will be the Steam Library of all teh old games, if you have re-downloaded them all, delete this old directory as that'll free up a fair amount straight away!!

There's over 200 GB in there . . . couldn't see anything I wanted, and yes, I've downloaded any games I'm likely to play again - I assume any new save data from steam is going into another folder ?

I did delete a few bits last night but it was telling me they're registry files so I got scared and stopped.  (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/sofa.gif)

That said, again, these should all be duplicates, right ?

Yup steam should be saving to either C:\Games\Steam, C:\Steam or C:\Program Files\Steam - if so then you should be fine to remove the folder in the 'backup' folder location.

Hmm, so long as you are defo in the old / backup folder should be fine - think it complaining as i will have backed up the windows files for safety so it probably doesn't like you deleting them, but again so long as you in the backup folder, should be fine.

Title: Re: GTA: V
Post by: FUBAR on March 25, 2015, 05:49:33 pm
Ok here's the specs from R* website:

Recommended specifications:
OS: Windows 8.1 64 Bit, Windows 8 64 Bit, Windows 7 64 Bit Service Pack 1
Processor: Intel Core i5 3470 @ 3.2GHZ (4 CPUs) / AMD X8 FX-8350 @ 4GHZ (8 CPUs)
Memory: 8GB
Video Card: NVIDIA GTX 660 2GB / AMD HD7870 2GB
Sound Card: 100% DirectX 10 compatible
HDD Space: 65GB
DVD Drive

To get that on Overclockers you'd be looking at something like £700 (£820 if you need to buy windows 7):

This as a Base, from their motherboard bundles section, provides the CPU needed, double the RAM (because windows needs some too) and a decent cooler, these are additional options:
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/ryanbudd/Dean%20PC%201_zpsi5y73aj1.jpg)

Then this is the best bang for your buck on a GFX card at the moment IMO, this is slightly better than my current one (but I have 2 :)) and is the same price as ones down the register a bit, but with twice the memory:
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/ryanbudd/Dean%20PC%202_zpsfcl7j21a.jpg)
(To go from a GTX 770 to a GTX 780 which is not 'that' near the top of the tree these days costs another £120)

To power the above I'd imagine you'd need a Power supply too, something like this is a good option:
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/ryanbudd/Dean%20PC%203_zpsxfpacyvr.jpg)

Construction Tech Support Free from either me or Ian, (you will also need windows 7 at least, not sure if you're using that already, this is another £117 for 64bit professional)

Edit: I just ran an approximation of a PC setup based on the above through a "Power supply Calculator" & it said 500w power supply minimum, I'd say 600w minimum and 700w recommended for some "Head room"

Will have to have a think . . . was planning on getting a bigger hard drive on the next upgrade, too.

I was kinda budgeting £500 for the "gaming" part of the upgrade and then the hard drive on top. 

I assume my motherboard isn't compatible / usable anymore ?

TBH if you don't need to buy windows 7 a new HDD would be a very sensible idea, I don't know when you last changed your HDDs but having a new one is always good, even just for peace of mind.

As for motherboards, your one is no longer compatible with the processors needed for a new setup

Meh, personal preference i guess then, i just prefer the layout of W7 vs 8.1,  have tried it on PC and got fed up with it - spose if it was only option you'd get used to it quick enough...but hey ho

Same for me TBH, I just prefer the way it works, I've used 8.1 on the laptop at work and I always find it a bit 'clunky'
Windows 10 is supposed to be 1/2 way between 7 and 8.1 on its looks & functionality so that will be my next step one day.

Yeah it's a bit too close to win 7 for me atm ..hoping they make it better for touch screens, but anywho as I said it will be free for a year for anyone on win 7 upwards..even dodgy copies apparently..
