It was this way on PC with a xbox 360 controller and on the PS3 too. Sleeping dogs did car physics very well for an open world game IMO.
I don't understand why we can't at least get BF3 vehicle physics. =( Maybe one day we'll get Forza / GT style engines in a open world game.
Imagine that! If they focused on making every part of the game as good as possible, rather than just throwing as much as possible on their engine! They could have the most generic story in the history of stories (you bad guy, take over city) and I'd still have a blast.
Early release? It's scheduled for Tuesday the 17th. I've picked up black ops 2 and other games on release day without pre orders.
I will admit that some of the appeal of the open world games is simply exploring the map and doing random things. Even if it is just to pass time before grinding out a couple more story missions.

I agree with you on this one. In fact, I get way more enjoyments out of the jack of all trades GTA games than I do out of most of the games that people praise.Ummm, you realize that all of those things they need to make "as good as possible" are a part of the engine right?
You might as well ask why Forza doesn't have good hand-to-hand or firearms combat. I'd say Rockstar does pretty damn well at being a jack of all trades.

Maybe we should wait to get our hands on GTA V and see just how improved the driving and shooting are. I've heard good things about them both, but want to get it in my hands first.Yes, but would it really be that hard to switch engines? There are games that use multiple engines, and switching to something like a racing specific one, wouldn't be too complicated.
I do agree the jack of all trades works pretty well in most GTA cases, but there is a lot of room for improvement. I'd like to see that boundary being pushed.

Not giving R* a pass on this, but I almost expect some dip in frame rate or something. I mean this is a huge game on very old tech, so I could see why it would happen.although i was not a fan of gta4, with nothing really coming out till x1 that i'm interested in i may snag up gta5. i'd like to see some gameplay videos before i decide though because if the framerate is anything like gta4 there is no way in hell i'm getting it.
Tell me more, oh wise one.

I am sure it will eventually. Rockstar were a long way into development by the time developer boxes were "finalized" I'm sure.
Why is this not coming to next gen consoles?
word on the street is that the leaked copy is going to be out tonight. apparently some guy in cali was selling retail copies on craigslist for $100 and someone who got one is gonna be ripping it. at least i'll be able to see some gameplay footage shortly lol. either way i wouldn't pick it up until the 25th at the earliest since i'm gonna be in the keys next wednesday.
