no matter what people think of the game itself, the engine was amazing, the sheer size of the city and the amount of detail with no loading screens.

this game is great on the pc but this comparisons dont work because they dont show res differences. the game running at 1920x1200 is just going to look better then a lower res as long as they are on the same settings.

It's quite obvious that Rockstar did not put enough time and effort into the PC version. I'm disappointed.

"They also say that you have to edit the exe file of GTA 4 with "-norestrictions" and "-nomemrestrict" so that you can adjust the details independent to the video memory of your graphics card. "

How exactly do you do this because i can only boost my settings up to so much?
