I really like how Rockstar is able to keep things so secretive. So many theiving developers steal thier ideas as soon as they release a new game, so it's pretty wise to keep the game low key until then.

nveenio4384d ago

So many steal their ideas? Like who and what? I'm only thinking of the Saints Row crew, but I'm not super familiar with all of the off-brand games out there.

"I just read what they put in front of me."

That's quality acting right there. Gonna win an Emmy one day if she keeps that up.

ColinZeal4384d ago

What do you expect? She demanding a rewrite?! She´s a tool just like all actors.

HammadTheBeast4384d ago

Morgan Freeman would like a word with you.

TronEOL4384d ago

Wow, this is probably the most douche-y comment I've seen on the internet all day.

Truth4384d ago

What was the point of that?

Yeah, wow, he sucks. He's reading a (probably) intelligently written speech he wrote earlier.

You do realize that if she doesn't know who she played then the most likely scenario is that Rockstar gave her little to no context notes or even introduced her to the character she was playing, right?

If that is the case, she was with little doubt just playing a generic female NPC you see plenty of travelling around the world.

@WUTCHUGUNNADO

Really? Don't bring that into this. Be an adult and keep the politics away from this gaming discussion.

gninja924384d ago

so wat if he brought politics in why must that topic be so taboo?

WUTCHUGUNNADO4384d ago (Edited 4384d ago )

I do what I want.

"Be an adult and keep the politics away from this gaming discussion."

I see irony in that sentence.

Blacklash934384d ago (Edited 4384d ago )

Politics are fine in the places to discuss them. Here they can only serve to distract and cause flame wars. They're irrelevant and only detrimental. It's the very reason they're a common tool for trolls.

I'm saying be an adult by keeping it on topic and don't post things that can serve as flame-bait. This is no place to jab at politics or politicians. This article is just about a voice actress, for goodness' sake.

mydyingparadiselost4384d ago

Politics are EXTREMELY relevant to all gaming. Politics controls the laws regarding whether you can buy and sell used goods, the type of sales tactics companies can use to push products, the way in which workers are treated, whether something needs to be regulated or not, certain aspects of the economy that directly affects business like devs and publishers, etc. The rub about discussing politics in gaming is not to get inflamed over peoples positions and to be an adult about it.

theDECAY4384d ago

@mydyingparadiselost

Politics are not relevent here. This is about gaming. If it was an article about laws banning games, then yes, but it's not. Stop.

@Chapter11
How does that make her a bad actress because she read what was in front of her?That makes absolutely no sense.If anything it means the complete opposite.Bringing life to someone without a back story isnt easy by any means, hell they probably gave her freedom to portray her how ever she wanted.I just dont see how that means bad acting.... wait maybe you wasnt being sarcastic.If thats the case my bad lol

DeadlyFire4383d ago

Sounds like she voices one of those pedestrians I tend to run over for cash.

random prostitute....that's the character!

C'mon guys we are talking GTA here...all women are prostitutes in GTA world.

Crimsonwilson4384d ago

Is anyone else not very excited for GTA 5? I was disappointed with 4 because they shifted from goofy to more serious. Sanits Row 2 is the most fun Iv had with a free roam game of this kind since RDR.

‘GTA V Gets Pulled from PS Plus as PC Players Continue to Favor Legacy Over Enhanced’

That’s an awful clickbait title. The use of the word ‘as’ means the first statement is the result of the second, when in reality they’re not connected.

Profchaos5d ago

Also the same for red dead redemption 2 and GTA trilogy (albeit they split that into individual games)

Tacoboto5d ago

It just got put back on Game Pass recently too.

GTA V is the pass-around sub title, and it probably doesn't even matter because everyone owns a copy or even two by now.

FortWaba5d ago

Trash article and trash website.

Doesn't even mention WHEN it's leaving.

gold_drake4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

so i looked cause i was curious, its still avaliable to me.

the headline is misleading asf.

also, how did no one report this. the editing is horrendous. they'd have my arse for this ha

gamerz4d ago

Noticed my copy of gta5 on Steam was already upgraded without me doing anything. How can you still play the legacy version?

Shiore2u4d ago

There should be a second listing right under it in your library.

Is there anything wrong with the enhanced version if you’re just playing single player?

My problem with the game is they want to install a Kernel level driver before I can even boot the game in sngle player mode I don't care about GTA online

I flat out refuse to allow any game kernal level it's a huge risk I don't need to take

It's not the only game that has done this. Ut it's absolutely shutting the dorr completely on PC gaming for me kernal level drivers are ineffective at preventing cheaters but publishers insist on continued use

Pyrofire9548d ago

My big issue is how long it takes to transition between open world and interiors in Online.
Sometimes it can take over a minute of just starring at a black screen.

Let it sleep already R*. VI is coming and this game has had 12 years in the spotlight.

It looks great, got everything running on ultra, have long shadows set to max and it's running silky smooth.

The ray tracing and lighting makes the game look amazing.

CrimsonIdol52d ago

The reflections are a noisy mess, particularly with DLSS. Shame they didn't have ray reconstruction, seems to work wonders for cyberpunk

MrDead52d ago

The reflections are like a mirror, I have no noise at all. Are you sure you have it set correctly?

CrimsonIdol52d ago

I've everything maxed out. the reflections DO have a lot of noise in them in motion. When you stop for a second to look at them they look okay but when you're driving around there's a definite blur and sparkle to them that you often get from RT. Again, exactly the same as you get in Cyberpunk without ray reconstruction but is much reduced with.

MrDead52d ago

I really don't have that, what you see here is what I have in motion even online vids have it completely clear. I'm running of a 5090 with everything set to the highest.

https://m.youtube.com/watch...

CrimsonIdol51d ago

Ah I see. Well if you have a 5090 then I'm guessing are you're probably getting quite a high frame rate (I'm guessing hitting that 120 fps max), which will make a difference too, since the RT samples in the reflections accumulate temporally. I'm on a 3080 so I'm keeping my frame rate around 60-75 at 4K, and the low sample/high noise of the RT is definitely apparent… particularly on moving cars at night time I've noticed the most (makes sense given highest contrast between light and dark) DLSS amplifies the noise too, it's the big thing that sticks out as low fidelity when the rest resolves nicely

CrimsonIdol51d ago (Edited 51d ago )

Just had a chance to watch this on my 4K monitor now. Do you not see the blurriness of the reflections in relation to everything else in motion? Like it's definitely better and less noisy than it is for me at 60fps with quality DLSS but it's still pretty bad compared to how crisp the screen space/cubemap ones were when driving about. fine when you stop for a second but driving around you're rarely stopped so it's near constant muddy reflections.
