actually i finally got mine working but i had to spend another bloody $100 to get a new dvd drive cause securom wouldnt allow my original dvd drive to read it anyways if you want screenshot i can get them but gimme a minute...uchihataruWhere the hell are you buying your hardware? You can get a DVD burner for $10-$15 these days. A plain DVD drive might run around $5 if you can find a place that still sells them.

They always price gouge Australians (assuming by the use of dollars and the "MA-15+" on the box, but correct me if I'm wrong) on computer hardware. That's just the way it is.
[QUOTE="iki080"]does this game look better then crysis ?DGFreakNo. Grand Theft Auto games have never been the best looking games; they are demanding because of the sheer size of the environment and amount of different things happening all at once.I don't know I think GTAIV is one of the better looking game Rockstar has pulled out.

i have a asus engtx2 260 and you have it on medium omg ! loliki080So I guess you didn't read either of my posts. You just wanted to act like a big man? :roll: Here you go I'll quote myself again so you can get a clue; The settings are the defaults auto picked for my machine... I've only done limited tweaking on my version and if I lower the resolution to 1680x1050 I can get the game to use high quality textures. The renderer can be set to highest at 1920x1200 but to be perfectly honest I really don't notice much difference at all. The whole look is ruined by the crappy shadows (no matter what setting the game is on), and the lack of AA. Having said that though the game seems to run rather well.
THATS ALL BULLOCKS... shame on rockstar games... and people crysis was badly optimized.....HellboardAgree 100%

I have exact hardware you have (gtx 260 core 216 superclocked, q6600, 4gb 800mhz RAM), but its nice to hear that when you bump it down to 1680x1050 (my monitors max resolution) the game seems to run well on high textures.
I'll probably buy this game through Steam in the very near future (next 48 hours or so)
slightly disappointed with the graphics, hoped they would be a big improvement over the consoles.
its definitely smoother and sharper although the framerate fluctuates between 30 & 60 fps but its still very playable so no real problems.
these are just a couple of shots i took after finally gettin it to work. goin to have a fiddle with the settings a bit and see how good i can get it
alright so i did a little research and those who gets the fatal error mma10,you gotta sign out of rockstar social club to play the single player as for screenshots i got one i took just outside the 'mansion'

playing a game like GTA4 on those settings with a great rig like that is unacceptable. You can try to deny to yourself that u are not pleased with the game, but when a dual core and 2gb of RAM, and a 8800GTX or an overclocked 8800GTS can max out crysis, but not GTA4 then theirs something wrong.

Did you even read my post above this 1? The 1 where I mention I've got the game running at 45-60FPS at 1920x1200? I guess not! :roll:[QUOTE="painguy1"][QUOTE="CellAnimation"] So I guess you didn't read either of my posts.

>lol srypainguy1I've spent a lot of time reading up and tweaking. My first impressions of the game were pretty bad, like everyones I guess. Now that some setting tweaks are becoming known the game is getting better and better. I've got to say I'm absolutely loving the PC version now. :)
