I was reading the recent Apple console thread, and was just wondering.

Me, I use a Macbook Pro.

I just think Macs are much more user friendly and easier to get around. Its the first Mac I've had, and since I dont play PC games its no problem. and they dont get viruses, which is very nice.

I only use a MacBook Pro, and when I want to play games I switch to windows XP and Play. So I get the best of both worlds. (Also I only use 2 programs [not including games] on the XP side.)

i had this problem sign out off PSN then load the game that should work :)cooldust

Thank you I will try that tonight...

again thank you all in advanced..I will be logging out here soon but I will check back later

Probly just another way Rockstar screwed over the Ps3 owners.Semantia

It might be a faulty disk tho? which could happen to anybody.

All my other games seem to work?

so I am pretty sure it is not my PS3?

but maybe it is? I don't know?

Has anybody else had problems loading games on GTAIV?

I play the game, quit and turn off the PS3; but when I go to load the Game later, It lags on the load screen.

I have tried to re-load all content, (including deleting all saved games)I have started over as a new game a few times, I have also reformatted my PS3 and re-downloaded the newest patch-update for the system, but I still can not load an old game?

I was wondering if anybody else had this issue? or is it a bad disk?

thank you in advanced

why is everybody such "graphic ho's" A good game is a good game. I have loved all his games from the first one I played on my Nintendo. I don't think his interview will change my mind on what kind of fun I will have. Only playing the game will allow me to know how much fun it is.

If you run the linux OS it is possible to turn your Ps3 into the fastest home rendering machine on earth.

At the minute i don't think there are linux versions of maya or 3dstudiomax, but maya does a batch rendering tool designed for linux based servers, its free to download if you know where etc. So basically you can create you animations on your PC and export the maya file to your linux runnning PS3. Click batch render and then it asks you 'use all available processors'and assign a destination and voila!!!

Ive just finised rendering 100 frame animation running at 24fps, so 4 seconds ofa missle and particle trail all rendered in mental ray with final gather and full 3d motion blur. On my laptop this single frame took about 8mins to render, on my Ps3 however it took just 1minute. Couldnt believe it! pixar best watch out lol, ive gotta home supercomputer that only cost me £425!

Sorry to geek it up but:

Maya's original OS is Unix, Back before Autodesk and Alias there was Wavefront and Maya was used strictly on SGI computers. So it should be easy to render on the PS3 with Linux. If you use a mac you will get a similar same result.(Linux based OS) Plus MEL script is C based and can run with Linux no prob.! but ya ...I have been using my PS3/Maya/Mac for character animations and dynamic responses for a while now. Good to know someone else is using it.

I am a 38 year old professional living in the burbs of Philly. How old are the rest of you guys. Oh and by the way calling me immature and childish has no effect on me whatsoever. I have a gorgeous wife at home that tells me all that at least once a hour. So how old are you gamers and how long have you been gaming. Proud to say I am now entering my 3rd decade of gaming. I have been owning since 1978 huzzah.

Cool man! I am 34 and have been gaming for a long time. I remember atari Yars (i think that is how you spell it) revenge, and some cool other games which elude me....but my wife and I still game and most likely will until i die!
