I know what you’re thinking, “Wait… everyone knows Grand Theft Auto V is coming to the PS3 and Xbox 360.” That’s true; the game will obviously still come to those platforms next year. But I believe that we will also see an enhanced next-generation version sometime in the near future. Now, before labeling me a dirty rumormonger, hear me out.
The freedom to explore large areas, approach objectives in multiple ways, and stumble across amusing distractions will always be an excellent format for video games, but some do it better than others. To celebrate the formula and parse the best from the best, have a look at the best open-world games of all time so far.
Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA 5 are both classics, but movement and general interaction sometimes feels like you're possessed by a fridge.
Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…
The controls of RDR2 felt a but cluncky indeed, but it’s not as bad as some make it out to be. At no point did I get the feeling my experience with the game was held back or ruined by the controls.
But it can never hurt to optimize them a bit, sure.
Red Dead Redemption felt clunky at first but I got used to it fairly quick. I thought 2 was easier to control but it could be my experience with the first game helped me out. Great games
I wouldn't call Rockstar games characters clunky instead they feel like they move with Weight they are not twitch controls press x to instantly snap onto cover the characters instead move like a actor would ducking behind cover they are exposed while they get there.
From their most recent entries in the GTA franchise to their cult favorite racing games, find here the best Rockstar games, ranked from best to worst.
it look next gen quite frankly
That's a given... I do not see rockstar passing that up
GTA V Will Go Next-Gen... PC version.
And it will be called GTA6. Probably.
What makes people think they will release their new consoles in 2013?
If they announce it at E3 2013, it won't be released till late 2014. Nintendo announced the WiiU at E3 2011, minor stuff. Then at E3 2012, they showed more and it was released in November 2012.
They always do that. They show it at E3 and it gets release the year after. They don't just come in at E3, show it and announce it's gonna be released in 3 months. Unless of course, they're releasing a revision of a console already out (like PS3 slim and 360 Slim)
Don't listen to devs like Crytek who says they need new consoles. First party devs are still pulling more power out of them every games they release. Devs like Crytek need to start optimizing their engines.
Yes, you may be making a game that takes 100% of the console's power, but it's probably not optimized and the code is garbage that takes too much ressources. If you had optimized it, your 100% could become anywhere from 50% to 90% depending how bad it was).
The fact that First party devs can still do wonders with 6 years hardware means we don't necessarly need them yet. Also, the WiiU isn't as good as a PS3 or 360, so they really don't need to hurry. It will take about 2 or 3 years before they learn how to use the WiiU and make multiplatforms looks as good as PS3 and 360. No rush, no need to push a new console out right now.
