Micah of Spiel Times interviews Marcus C. Evans Jr., Illinois state representative for the 33rd district, and learns why they want to ban Grand Theft Auto and violent video games in their state.
Rockstar’s iconic title Grand Theft Auto V is making headlines once again—but not for the reasons fans might hope. Less than a year after GTA V joined the
I believe it's been on ps+ a few times over the years of I'm not mistaking same goes for gamepass.
‘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.
Also the same for red dead redemption 2 and GTA trilogy (albeit they split that into individual games)
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.
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
Noticed my copy of gta5 on Steam was already upgraded without me doing anything. How can you still play the legacy version?
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?
The Enhanced and Expanded PC version of Rockstar Games' open world action game, GTA V, is facing backlash over its missing text chat feature.
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
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.
Grand Theft Auto 5 Enhanced Edition comes to PC as a free upgrade as Rockstar prepares to launch its next blockbuster (GTA 6). In less than a week, the upgraded version has garnered close to 200K concurrent players on Steam. Unfortunately, the game is far from perfect. W
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.
The reflections are a noisy mess, particularly with DLSS. Shame they didn't have ray reconstruction, seems to work wonders for cyberpunk
The reflections are like a mirror, I have no noise at all. Are you sure you have it set correctly?

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.
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.

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
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.
These people are disconnected from reality that they can’t see their own crap they stand in. This has been a ball passed back and forth across the aisle for ages. Instead of fixing their win cities, they deflect, project, and blame. It was Mortal Kombat in the early 90s, Doom after Columbine; and almost everyone of these people have dumb reasons why video games are to blame. It’s such a joke.
Got to love it when video games are always to blame for dumbest shit and is always the first form of entertainment to get the finger pointed at it. I am not American so what prevents me from going out of State to grab the game if I live in a border town and what's to stop me from ordering it off of Amazon or Ebay. Are you going to train the cops to arrest my ass because I went to Wal Mart or Best Buy in another State to grab GTA? Are you going to get every package from Amazon or as a gift from my grandmother x rayed to see if the package has GTA in it? Or are you going to train a dog to sniff out a package that has GTA in it? No seems like a real waste of cash to do all that just to block me from buying a game. Yet kids see more violence on tv and movies but yet they get the ok card I watched Robocop as a kid saw Murphy lose his had I have not gone out and done dumb violent shit. It's not the violence from video games that make people go out and do dumb shit it's the idiot who thinks it's a good idea to go out and do the violent shit. I can understand a person playing a violent video game and ignoring a crying kid and then slaps the kid to shut up. It's not the games fault it's the idiot who holds the controller who is at fault. It just like a gun it's not the guns fault for killing someone it's the dumbass who shot the gun who is at fault.
This pattern is getting old and stale every so many years blame video games light that torch grab those pitch forks then after a while it fizzles out. Then after so many years blame the video games again light those torches grab those pitch forks again then it fizzles out again. Wash, rinse, repeat this bill will most likely not pass because of one thing the tax money the government will make from that purchase of that game whether physical or digital. And that's the last thing any greedy government stooge wants to do is cut off any source of tax revenue. And they will see people will go out of State or go some where else to buy that banned game and that other State will get the tax dollars. And they don't want that or have people doing that.
Cause he's dumb...
No where do they mention that he's a democrat. When it's a republican - it's always in the headline or the first paragraph. Fact check me on that.
