Check out how much power does the iPhone has for runing games with high 3D quality, here comes the Raging Thunder demo that should make you giddy for what's to come. Not only does the game use the accelerometer, which acts as a more-than-adequate wheel, everything's rendered in pretty decent OpenGL 3D graphics as well. It's no GTA IV, but you can download it from Installer.app now. Will We be seeing Multiplayer games over the iPhone internet soon? Thats Nice :)
This is got to be one of the greats, even if your not a GTA fan (which I doubt there's many of you out there) - this is it, Rockstar Games Do it again, giving us a reason to buy the XBOX360 or the PS3 for (maybe this and God of War 3).
This review is been written shortly after purchasing a brand new GTA IV for the XBOX360. Buckle up, grab your favorite gun and let's head up for liberty city.
American Dream Before we begin with the story line, I must say this game was highly expected all around the world, these are the numbers:
The Latest GTA IV title sold a record 609,000 copies on its first day of release, generating an estimated $48.5m !!
In the UK; Eurogamer.net called it "game of the year" and handed it a 10 out of 10 review score.
Niko Bellic, a Serbian veteran of the Bosnian War comes down to the U.S and trying to achieve the "American Dream". After his cousin Roman, who had promised in multiple e-mails to Niko that he was living a great life, with a big house, beautiful women, and sports cars. Roman's promises turn out to be lies to hide his own failures. In reality, he only owns a small taxi business and is in serious debt with local gang bosses, which he manages to resolve by getting Niko's help in....well...killing them, daaaa.
The biggest thing GTA IV accomplishes is a sense of realism not before seen in video games. All the game’s elements come together perfectly to form a world that feels authentic, realistic, and like a living city. The amazing realism and attention to detail makes simple things like watching a pedestrian walk or watching them sail through the air after you have slammed your van into them awe-inspiring.
Graphically it looks great, but is not without it’s hiccups. There is the occasional pop-in during cut scenes and even more occasional frame rate issues. Those few issues aside the graphical detail is astounding and while it may not be the prettiest game on the 360, that is to be expected considering how much is constantly happening all at the same time.
It is not perfect, but its definately the closest to perfection the games industry is going to achieve for a long time. It is one hell of an experience.
9.8/10 Until Something 9.9 comes...check this video out:
