The Grand Theft Auto titles have been considered to be some of the best sandbox games yet. GTA3 on PlayStation 2 set the standard for free roaming in a large world, with guns, whores, fast cars, wild missions and a storyline.
Saint's Row put up a good fight when it was released on Xbox 360 last year, but other than that, very little has challenged Rockstar's throne.
Now GTA IV is on the horizon, and we have a new challenger. 2 Days 2 Vegas is due early 2008, and one of the developer's goals is to make it even more immersive than GTA.
Unfortunately, little is known about either title. But here is a screenshot comparison. As you'll see below, 2 Days 2 Vegas is a more than worthy competitor...
As we have all been graced by the release of Grand Theft Auto 6's trailer, we're ranking the best and worst GTA trailers to date.
We be getting these posts All week now lads. Someone noticed a number plate ... Someone noticed a billboard... I can see it now
Just go on YouTube and watch one of the many videos dissecting the whole 1minite 30secs worth.
This site supposed to be for news.
These updates on N4G are going to ruin whats rest of this site. Unfortunate since I was one of the first members.. The site shows unsecure when i login as well.
Grand Theft Auto 4 is an important game for Rockstar, not least because it was the first title in the franchise to use the newly created RAGE engine.
There’s never a bad time to relive its magic, and with rumours of a potential Grand Theft Auto IV remaster making the rounds, why wouldn’t you?
Not really
Overrated
Boring
Liberty City despite being a reimagined version for the HD era lacked any variety
Lacked the GTA fun charm overall
Niko was bland compared to past protagonists like Tommy, CJ or Victor
Like hell it is. San Andreas was far better, much more fun and a better game overall.
Nah, it's a masterpiece in attention to detail and the amount of immersive systems at play. But it really isn't very fun, ESPECIALLY when compared to the previous games in the series. Like tons of things are just wonky and actively kneecap lots of experimentation, or is just lame. Like why do I take huge damage when falling into water, why can I only stand in very specific large trucks when they are moving but not smaller trucks and vehicles, why is the melee combat such a massive down grade from GTA SA and GTA IV, why is the euphoria nowhere near as reactive, why is being drunk using a rasterized animation of staggering rather than the far more entertaining euphoria GTAIV and RDR used when you were drunk, why do npc vehicles barely react to you popping there tires even at high speed, etc etc.
I've always loved playing around in GTA games world. Like the campaigns are great but the majority of my time was always spent just playing in the open world. Yet GTAV is the only game in the series I never really returned to after beating it, it just lacks that fun factor the others have, I spent more time in GTA SA remastered than GTAV
It's one of my least favourite GTA games. It's clunky, the ai is exploitable, it's far too long and the writing is absolutely awful.
It seems as though I've seen these comparison screen shots a while back, if I remember correctly.
Anybody else remember these?
2 Days 2 Vegas has better screenshots.
If we're just judging screenshots, the winner is clearly 2 days 2 Vegas.
The overall better game could still easily be GTA.
Traditionally, GTA has never had the cutting edge graphics. Games like God of War made GTA: San Andreas look like a beta version with its flat color pallette, and lack of detail and lighting effects.
2 Days.
GTA 4 is all in game and from what Ive seen from the trailer/tech demo is pretty dam impressive for a large sandbox game but for all i know the 2 day to vegas stuff could just be target renders like the killzone trailer until i see something like a tech demo or gameplay footage I'd wait until you start comparing them
