Wow is any1 eggcited for this?!
I mean yeah I have a PS5 how much might be the upgrade for PS4 to PS4 version
You're assuming there's an upgrade, if I know Rockstar they are greedy, there was no upgrade from ps3 to ps4.
I hope you are right and we get an upgrade because I already paid for this game twice. I'd be happy to pay for it again if it was like 50 dollars max, but the normal price for ps5 games here in the UK is 93 dollars, no way I'm paying that.
Oops, I misunderstood and thought you meant a different type of upgrade. The smart delivery stuff did not exist until this Gen
this game just wont go away! GTA6 will be around for PS5 PS6 and PS7
I hope it will be nicer than the mods i've seen so far.
What about people who already bought gta5 twice. Ps3 and ps4. Do we get any free upgrades?
I’m definitely not paying 70 dollars for it again.
And once again they do absolutely nothing for singleplayer
Am I missing something? It lists improvements.
They said they increased texture quality, hdr options, draw distance, ray tracing, 4k resolution and up to 60fps and faster loading times.thats what they said
Last I played was on PC and with some mods if was like I was playing GTA6 already, completely different game, I was shaming my friends who don't own a top PC and they couldn't believe the difference to the ps4 which looks cartoony and full of aliasing.
I wasn't reffering to visuals or performance
Maybe I will finally beat GTAV.
