hello, I'm new here (finally the registration worked here)

does anybody knows if I'll be able to play the game
my specs are:
amd athlon xp 2500+
512MB DDR ram
ati mobility radeon 64MB (this is where I have doubts since 64MB is the minimum requirement and graphic cards in laptops aren't the best things around)

I can run vice city very decent and some other recent games work here too (not maxed out on details and resolution, but I don't care mucht about graphics)

if anybody knows it would be great.

I've read some people complaining about the camera not staying fixed to a "behind" view when using the mouse and keyboard. Well, once all your controls are setup, leave it at joystick in the options and when you play you can still use keyboard and mouse and it will stay locked all the time. I found that out by fluke. Don't know if it's been posted at all but there you go.

thx for the info
800x600 is fine for me, play most of my games at that resolution.
20 fps will be fine too I guess, I'm already happy if I can play it and it doesn't go to slow.

it comes out here tomorrow so probably gonna pick it up since I have already done with school

Let us (well me anyways!) know how it goes. I have a similar laptop and I was thinking about playing it off of it instead of my desktop.

Just try to forget about catching the arrows inside the rings. Just follow the beat, not the rings. I had problems too until I decided to just listen to the music.

aint tried it yet StridingCloud but I will

ok, the sound thing! seems to only happen when it rains, I noticed when the weather changed I got my full sound back, methinks its something to do with the rain sound effect.

a couple of mouse issues but nothing major, and Id prefer to play it with FULL sound acceleration otherwise it sounds low quality, we need a patch STAT!

No problems for me! Having standard hardware acceleration makes hardly any difference to the quality.

PostPosted: Fri, 10th Jun 2005 04:54    Post subject: my problems so far
Just tried the game....many issues.

I am running XP Pro...ATI x800 pro...512 Ram...should be fine, right?

Video: not a lot of lag...but the sky does weird things...color changes from dark to light in a matter of seconds...really strange.

Sound: BIG ISSUES....once I get out of a car (radio works fine)...no sound at all. On the spray paint tag mission...I ran around and did not have any sound at all...until I got back in the car.

Also, on some cut scenes...there is no vocals...just see the subtitles flash really quit unti the scene ends.

I am using a SB Live card (I know not great...but I have never had sound probs...not even in Half Life 2).

Any fixes for these yet?

Nope the moon is "supposed" to be oval and overly mega-huge, looks kinda odd, but the overly big sunrise/sunsets look great Very Happy

Dude do this, check the minimap and such, look at the donut shop donut, look at the burger bar burger (there is a round target around the burger at the roof)... If those are not more round than oval, then you have a problem. I know what you mean, but the moon and stuff, they are not round!

I'm having problems with the controls, just the special vehicles controls. And even more specifically, the special vehicle down control (used for hydraulics or lowering the forklift)

No matter what I map this key to, it does not work properly. It will not lower the forklift and it does not register as anything in the hydraulics DDR competition thing. It does something though, like for the hydraulics it levels the car out, and on the forklift it will stop the forks from going up, but will not make them actually go down.

This is really annoying since I need this to work for 2 of the missions that I'm on right now O_o

My comp. is Intel celeron 703mhz, 320mb of RAM and GeForce FX 5500 128mb, 128 bit. So my computer just doesn't beats the CPU it req. 1ghz.

So can i run it?



Why did you think that? I've palyed Max payne 2 on my comp. The req. for the CPU minimum is: 1Ghz Pentium III/Athlon or 1.2Ghz Celeron or Duron processor. I raned it so why shouldn't i ran GTA-SA?


It's going to run like shit. Better to get one of the console versions.


Yeah,but it's going to run?! Im downlading san andreas to write it to 6 or 7 CD's


The official word is:

Celerons are POO. It would be more use not buying anymore CD's and DVD's then using that money to buy a *real* processor.. I'm currently using better CPU's as door stops Razz

And it could very well not run at all depending on how the game is programed, it may check for your CPU speed then just not work as it is lower!


Yes celerons ar POO, Very Happy but i ranned vicecity with no problem and san andreas graphics are just little bit higher. And about those CD's i have 85 Parts of the game and i wanna write 14 parts into the cd than the next... 14 parts is 667MB

This fucking sucks, crash crach crash crash. It may play fro like as much as 10-15 mins, then fucking crash again. I thought it might have something to do with sound acceleration needing to be set at basic. NOPE, CRASH again.

Is someone gonna release a more stable crack? I mean whats the common denominator for this fucking game to run properly? I have far froma shitty comp, whast the catch?


Same problem. Doesn't matter if I play a mission or screw around, it'll crash after a set time. And not a normal crash either. Screen stops, sound & music keeps going, can't alt+tab, can't alt+f4, can't ctrl+alt+del, forced to reboot. They really dropped the ball on this one.

that happened in vice city too, when i would do a high jump i would start with a sunrise and landed it in rain.

about the pixel shader, is that really necessary, the requirements don't really say anything about it, and some people say it is needed others say it's not Confused
