Well in Canada you got cable internet which is pretty cheap and it has reliable, fast, usenet services.

You can go from 2mgbps to 3mgbps or even 4mgbps on a good day.
Only thing you pay for is your isp.

And if you're a heavy usenet user you tend to slow down their mail services and they'll bitch at you Laughing and eventually cut you off for a week. If they do it twice they remove your account for one year because you went over the limit on an unlimited account Laughing

I know, I know, I bitched at them over the phone over that too… it got nowhere Neutral

Cable internet isn’t BAD here. You can get specialty tv channels as wells as high speed cable for around 120 cdn Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

-
as for the bad points in the game

the dialect; it's meant to be that way to mimic and mock the era the setting of the game takes place

the control scheme; it's a port, you can't have perfect controls on ports even VC had bad controls and camera angles.

missions; so they are difficult, then you'll have to try until you beat it... (long lasting) and if you get bored then GTA isn't your game type.

lack of station variety; are you kidding? you can make your own. You can't bitch about that. Knowing the game is coming out you should already have a home-made radio folder ready before you install the game. (i DiD)

gimmicky gameplay bullshit; people are afraid of new things, it's normal. Just imagine the next GTA game will have more of it. So better get used to it now or give up on the series itself.

The game changes later on, the whole gangsta shit is basicly only the beginning of the game, the first town, after that CJ grows a brain.

I must say, I enjoyed this on the ps2 a lot more, no idea why, because vice city and gta3 was way more fun on the pc than on the ps2, but I just cant get myself to like this on the pc, I find it incredible booring on the pc to be honest, strange as hell :/
It sucks too since I was looking forward to the MUCH improved viewdistance :/

If some guy saying "nigger" a few times bothers you then turn the sound down or something. I hate the theme of the game as much as the next guy but it's nothing to get upset about.

Well 14.99 / month for unlimited downloading of everything you could want at high speed sounds like a good deal to me Razz

rogers isp also gives you a speed capped unlimited rebranded giganews feed for free (60kbps). so there. Very Happy

PS2 version got better reviews on gamespot 9.6. PC version only got 9.0.

I have this for the PS2 the sound is alot better for the PS2. I dont know I think Rockstar worked on getting only the graphics to be better, cause it seems like they forgot to add some of the things that made the PS2 version so good, like sound effects and such.

PS2 version is better, The game looks better on the PC obviously, but thats about it.

This PC version was not worth the 6 month wait. Most PS2 user's who dont have this for the PC are missing out on nothing at all. If you already have it for the PS2 stick with that. I was expecting it to be alot better then the PS2 version but its not.

Usenet is good for porn and gba roms Laughing but not games Wink

FUCK! I'm sick of review sites!
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST! They're all bunch of cock suckers!

Metal Gear Solid 2 substance came out. VR missions and shit. And they gave it a lower rating and Metal Gear Solid 2 cause it didn't add anything new to the game play. I MEAN WHAT THE FUCK! God damn queers!

GTA SA is exactly the same on the pc as it were on the ps2. WIth higher res gfx and customizable radio station and they give it a low score? WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY SMOKING?

Yes the game is boring because GTA is boring! It was new, fresh and exciting on the ps2. When it came out to the pc it was recycled trash!
If you played it for the ps2 then you shouldn't touch it. PERIOD!!

If they reviewed the ps2 game they shouldn't give the pc version a lower score. They are basically reviewing the port and not the game itself which is bull shit to begin with. FUCK the review sites.

Play the game! If you hate it then hate it! DO NOT COMPARE IT TO THE PS2!

If you love it then love it! If you compare how it differs from the ps2 version and how it's better then you have to be shot!

Only thing that's different is; modding, radio station, and high res graphics! FUCK! Comment on that! DO NOT COMPARE!!!!!!!!!!!!! FUck !

It doesn't bother me at all (the word in itself). What bothers me is the fact that ALL they use is two or three of the same words over, and over, and over. It just gets old fast. I realize they are trying to mimick the "ghetto" type dialogue, but they just overuse the stuff, thats all.

Same here. Although I never played any version on the consoles, I greatly enjoyed both GTA 3 and GTA VC on the PC. The controls didn't bother me either. At least not to the point of annoyance. I really tried to like this one as well...

I guess I'll just play with my control mappings, and give this one another go, albeit with a different mindset. Guess I have to accept the fact that console players are used to this bullshit, and try to rewire my thinking (if only for this title), to that. It seems like I'm missing out on alot, and you kinda helped reassured me that the stuff does get better so, Ill guess Ill reinstall and grit my teeth.

However, that still doesn't change the fact that reviewers treat this as if it was the second coming of christ...its not THAT great.

How can i be calm when there are still people quoting review sites as if they meant anything? What if hl2 got a low score would you still praise it? Half the kids here would say it sucked! A lot of kids are brainwashed into believing that review sites hold some merit to your decision whether or not you should like the game. It’s fucking bull shit! You either like the game or you don’t! If a review site tells you that you have to like this game and you listen to it you should pull a cobain!!

I hate people who can’t think for themselves!

Then there are those who compare; the same gameplay, story, visuals, etc of the port to the original and then have the audacity of saying it is worse. I mean how can this be? It’s the same game in all of its essence! If the control isn’t your favor then go buy a ps2 mimic controller and experience ps2 gameplay on a pc Rolling Eyes

You have your customizable radio station, higher resolution graphics, ability to mod the shit out of this game, and a promising mp mod in the works. I mean this GTA is the GTA people were waiting for!

GAH!

There are some probs with the audio. Can become very hard to hear what the main characters are saying during cut scenes at times, and I have to get all up on my speakers to hear.

I don't find the game overly difficult. Course if you go toe to toe with 5 dudes with guns, you are probably gonna get smoked. But if when approaching an objective point you get just close enough to activate it, you can head shot guys and they go down in one hit for the most part. I haven't left the first city yet so if you are speaking of later on then I haven't experienced that yet.

Something that really bothers me is peoples hands. WTF they look like big ass hams or something. I'm running everything maxxed out at 1600x1200 just some seriously low polys on pedestrians.

What are people talking about auto target? I have no auto target, I thought it was all manual targetting. I see no way in the controls to auto target. If this is possible, please speak up and say how to do it.

Overall, I like the game, but it hasn't kept me glued to my computer since I purchased it. Finished maybe 15 missions or so. I'll be playing through it though.
