I wonder if GTA V is coming on Switch too. I see no technical reason why not, and the game is gonna sell plenty there too, I’m curious why it hasn’t so far.
Rockstar is the most offensive publisher out there with pricing & double dipping.
$50 for a basic port of 13 year old game is just straight-up robbery. Shame on the suckers who give them money for this.
I wish people would stop comparing games like this in general. It literally serves no purpose and leads to unnecessary angst. Just play the games you want and stop worrying about all the nonsense. If you’re genuinely just curious about this stuff, then ignore my post, but if your enjoyment of Starfield might be diminished if it doesn’t have more concurrent players on Steam than another game, seek help.
I wasn’t expecting something as bad as this, GTA trilogy was just a $60 release right?
Yeah it was terrible but it still sold millions and millions of copies and they knew the demand was high
This is Nintendo level greed
What’s with the skipping of Xbox though? I mean we have it via BC and at 4K, but might this porting studio maybe make it 4K and 60fps? Doubt it but…
Who am I kidding, it will likely be 720p/30fos.
I don’t think it’s going to support 4K or 60fps. I mean it’s PS4, not 5. Very bare port.
It’s already 4K on Xbox but 30fps. No mention if the port is 60fps, and when they don’t mention it it’s probably not there.
The single player story mode of GTA 5, i can see running fine on switch. GTA Online though, not so much. Switch online function are still behind that of the original Xbox 2002 online lol.
This is on the website for the port so yeah it’s a direct 360 port lol
Haha, oh man.
Rockstar be those clowns at times man. But this just shows how rumors can be utter bullshit too. I remember some of these insiders saying “remake/remaster announcement imminent” ya, okay.
Seriously though, can we at least just have them announce GTA 6 officially this year?
If it was that I’d trust it even less after the GTA remake-ster trash. Believe me if it’s a direct 1:1 port it’s better than a botched remaster.
If I remember correctly, some games that is BC already has its own redesign case that signals works on One. I remember seeing it for South Park games, so yeah, no need to re-release.
Edit:
Ah there we go.
This is basically an admission that the new version will just be a straight port with no additional enhancements over what Xbox already has. Funny stuff.
Happy for Switch owners (this will look great on the small display) and Playstation user who finally get RDR with grass.
I’m on the other hand am fine with my old RDR disc. Still runs great and the multiplayer just works. Thanks Xbox bc team
Honestly, this goes to show you how valuable xbox BC team was. That engineer team are a bunch of wizards for making games 4k and even giving FPS boots to games that were 30fps. Also, it’s extra crazy that Microsoft didn’t charge for these updates because these publishers aren’t afraid of charging $50 for awful ports.
Great & convenient BC made me play so many old games I wouldn’t otherwise play, and made me replay ones I like. For example I already liked Binary Domain on the 360, and replaying it with FPS boost made me actually love it more and wish for a sequel
