Recon 0 Posted October 21, 2003 Share Posted October 21, 2003 How demanding is this game on the PC? Does it run nice and smoothly? How is it compared to GR in framerates? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
firefly2442 0 Posted October 21, 2003 Share Posted October 21, 2003 I would think it's about the same as GTA III? Not sure. Runs great on my machine. Check the recommended requirements on the box and from reviews. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

magnumkp 0 Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 GTA III ran bad even on some very good machines, however GTA VC will require at least a decent computer to get the best out of it but it is more stable. If you even think your computer is good enough buy it, its worth the cash. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Recon 0 Posted October 22, 2003 Author Share Posted October 22, 2003 The thing is, I've already got VC on the PS2 and I do like it. However, it's meant to be so much better on the PC - especially that multiplayer mod! If I did get it I would probably sell the PS2 copy. Is it worth it just for the extra features/mods/etc.?

Parabellum 12 Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 I have and XP1800+, 512Mb RAM, and a Ti4200, and I don't have any slowdown at all. The only time I've ever experienced any lag was on the bank heist mission, when there was an abnormally high amount of smoke in the room, and then it was very choppy, probably in the single digits.
