Please let this be true. Please God, I'll never do anything bad again, I swear to God.
I had doubts about LA Noire coming to Swithc when that rumor first came around months ago, but it was officially confirmed a few weeks ago. I hope this is also true.
Moreover, what I really want is Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2 on the Switch.
at 480p 20fps, while reducing battery life to 1.5 hours.
Eli Turner
If it ran on the 360 it will run on the shitch, no biggie
Carson Hernandez
36p 5fps, while reducing battery life to 10 minutes
Parker Hall
GTA V is just too big for the Switch though, especially with all the constant updates Rockstar pushes with the online mode - I'd love to see it happen but I doubt it.
Hunter Phillips
this, it would be a dogshit port running at like 20fps 360p
Ryan Walker
Lel
You realize GTAV ran on PS3 and 360 right? And you do also realize that the Switch blows those two consoles out of the water, right?
Switch can run it and upgrade it, all in handheld mode alone. It'd be even better in docked mode.
Carson Kelly
GTA 5 minus 2 maybe
Gabriel Gray
GTA5 is a last gen game. The PS3 and 360 versions ran at 720p, 30fps with drops as low as 20fps. The Switch may not compete with the current gen, but even in handheld mode it clearly outperforms last gen's consoles. GTA5 Switch would be at least 720p30,
nice try though roaches
Jackson Perez
But why? I played it on the PS3 and it was ok. Recently bought a used PS4 that came with it and I couldn't even be bothered to get past the starting mission. You're not missing out.
Connor Scott
My PC install of DOOM is 80GB, but look what Bethesda is doing.
Landon Thompson
Will they port the ps4 version or the ps3 version?
Xavier Ortiz
Not an argument
Ryan Wright
Why would anyone be excited to buy the same game again?
Luke Nguyen
Not an argument
Nathaniel Nelson
Not an argument
Brayden Rivera
you can;t just say that
like that
Jaxon Watson
Why the fuck do you want gimped GTA5?
Julian Murphy
In what way are those not arguments?
Jose Gonzalez
It's still just rumor. Most likely, if LA Noire, Skyrim are aything to go by, then itwill be the upgraded version. Probably it won't look quite as good as the PS4 version but it will beat the shit out of the last gen versions.
Thomas Peterson
how much space can cartirdges hold? or will it be a digital download? cause gta v is fucking huge, isn't it?
it'd be cool for the switch, minus another old ass game port meme, but i'm curious how online would work, cause switch online sucks ass, and gta online isn't the greatest thing either, so..
Christopher Martinez
>Wanting a dog shit port of gta running at 15 fps
Colton Howard
Dude imagine Trevor's epic shenanigans on the go XD
but seriously, portable GTA V is a good selling point
Eli Scott
It can run Doom it can run Skyrim
why not a last gen game like GTA V?
Ryan Nelson
Switch carts can be 32GB, and you can download additional data to a microSD card of any size
Jason Thomas
>cause switch online sucks ass where are the proofs
Noah Gonzalez
I dunno. Sony buddies are eagerly awaiting Sotc hd Zoe2 hd Okami hd Dragons dogma hd .hack hd All after just finished playing ffxii hd, and yakuza 1 hd.
Nathaniel Evans
Trevor dies.
Or Michael.
Or no one.
Lincoln Long
having to connect to an app to do anything? having the most awkward voice chat ever?
Cameron Cruz
I think "no one" is the canon ending, it was the best mission of the three.
Cooper Clark
I thought the engine behind Doom and Wolfenstein was optimized enough to pull off 60fps on last-gen hardware, but the Switch version of Doom is 30fps. RAGE and Euphoria seem way more demanding than a first-person shooter. Though I guess if GTA is on par with or uglier than the 360/PS3 versions, the Switch might be able to handle it. Still a huge advancement from Liberty City and Vice City Stories.
>L.A. Noire >upgraded version
We'll have to wait and see, because they only mention new controls and camera angles.
Grayson Hall
It must be. Its a weird mission of craming in all the loose plot threads of OH YEAH SHIT ERM okay you kill those people that I guess we forgot to tie up?
Brandon Bailey
Rockstar abandoned PS3/360 after the heist update because they literally couldn't run any of the super jew content updates that came after it.
Switch GTA5 would be everything up to heists and then be a dead platform just like PS3/360.
Gavin Reyes
Dude, are you literally fucking retarded? Do you not realise that GTA 5 launched on the Xbox 360 and the PS3, consoles that were from 2005-2006, and the Switch is notably more powerful than both of those consoles.
Gavin Walker
Let's see source for that image...
Cameron James
Yeah that was weird, it ended suddenly, I was expecting something awful happening before the ending a la GTA IV, but I guess that was IV's thing, being depressive.
Ethan Ramirez
Oh boy can't wait to play gtav at 720p after playing it at 4k and heavily modded
Sebastian Davis
how desperate are you switchfags for games?
Hunter Stewart
>on the go
That's really the only reason to buy third parties on the Switch, a very good reason.
>Initial third party support >but wait it's only older games
Switch will not get new releases like the next cod or bf, because publishers are lazy and will not want to do double work for a console with half the power.
Also the current gen is almost EOL. PS4 came out in late 2013. We are almost in 2018. Guess what will happen when PS5 and XBone 2 is out? The disparity between the Switch and consoles will fuck Nintendo up. I hope we keep getting more quality porta like Doom, but I'm not that hopeful desu.
Elijah Taylor
but why?? why not importing other good games that actually run well
Kevin Ross
>having to connect to an app to do anything?
it's only for voice chat
Jaxon Rodriguez
>Guess what will happen when PS5 and XBone 2 is out? Time for the Super Switch with Nvidia's next Tegra and a unified software platform. Count on it, Nintendo wants that iPhone upgrade sales model.
Jonathan Ramirez
I can totally see it coming to the switch, but anyone thinking that the graphics won't be at/worse than the PS3/X360 versions is kidding themselves hard.
it would probably be a finished product of 5-600p, and cap at 30fps
Benjamin Foster
The main problem with the U was that Nintendo didn't know how to market it, the Wii proved that as long as it sells it will have third party support, it didn't matter if it was a weak console.
Bentley Roberts
>2 hour battery life
what is with this meme of lowering every number to fit people's arguments? Botw lasts 3 hours on default brightness
Levi Kelly
The Switch is more powerful than the last gen consoles.
Leo Carter
Switch has more RAM available which was the main constraint that led to PS3/360 being dropped.
Evan Robinson
The Wii U's third parties were there at launch, with launch games because they wanted to ride the wave of the new Wii. They quickly dropped support after it became clear the launch was a failure.
Now the Switch on the other hand, launched with no fucking third party at all, just some first party launch titles and indie games. The third parties have now begun to sign on one by one because of the incredibly successful launch.
Literally a reverse Wii U.
Landon Myers
It's the 3DS all over again.
Easton Collins
it's processor is hardly more powerful
Nicholas Murphy
I honestly hope you are wrong. If Nintendo pull another n3sxl on us I will be so mad. I don't plan to upgrade my Switch like never.
Landon Fisher
I'll never get over how Sup Forums shitted on PSP and Vita for being console games on the go, but suddenly its the best thing that nintendo is doing it.
Ayden Wright
the problem is that they are importing the wrong games. the whole point of triple A titles is to experience them in full graphics capacity, they were never meant to be good gaming experiences
Luke Campbell
Yo are narrow-minded if you think this is anything like the Wii U situation. The Wii U had nothing to offer but a second screen gimmick, the hardware was expensive and weaker than 8th gen consoles. The Switch is portable which has been a great selling point so far.
Carson Edwards
>but anyone thinking that the graphics won't be at/worse than the PS3/X360 versions is kidding themselves hard. It is you who is kidding himself hard. You know the 360 has 512mb of memory, and is 2004 technology, yes? The Switch overpowers it in every metric.
Chase White
Still more powerful.
Cooper Sanchez
Give me GTA3, VC, and San Andreas instead.
Grayson Butler
Killing Michael was worst ending.
Bentley Cox
The biggest bottleneck with GTA V on the 360 was the CPU. With CPU heavy scenes like quickly driving down a vehicle populated road with many physics objects on screen, or in firefights with many explosions and ragdoll/physics objects flying around the framerate would drop down to (and even below in some instances) 20fps. The 360 had a tri-core (hyper threaded - so 6 threads) PPC CPU @3GHz. The Switch has a quad-core ARM A57 CPU @1GHz.
It ain't happening.
Josiah Lewis
It really isn't though. The sales are great and continue to do well. Nintendo is actually supporting the damn thing with a lot of big games for the future. A lot of smaller third party and indie developers are giving it some attention and Wolfenstein and Doom show it's capable of getting some specifically current gen AAA titles even if at a lower output. But even then why would Switch owners even want a lot of new big titles when so many of them are online multiplayer games that would work better on a PC? Sure there's still some AAA single player experiences being made but a lot of them are shitty Ubisoft clones that will be forgotten a couple years later.
Luke Brown
The plot was really everywhere in V. Stretch and the Triad storylines were really barebones and almost inconsequential to the plot
Henry Myers
I fon care, I already played this when it came on the PS3, and then once again when it released on PC, why would I buy it again?
Jason Peterson
Would be a whole different story if they didn't port Zelda to it. Shame that it's just becoming a port-station at this point, worse-so than PS4.
Ryan Diaz
There's demand for it. A port to the PS4 is just kind of convenient. A port to the Switch is the first handheld version of a full PC/console game.
Levi Lopez
>ITT: delusional people that believe Switch beat XBOX360 and PS3 When Switch is docked it runs at full clock speed. We can all agree on that. At full clock speed the Switch is indeed more powerful than last gen consoles. But when you detach it from the dock and screen go black for a second before switching for the tablet screen the SoC puts the system on hold and underclock the console by 2.5. When in handheld mode the switch runs at a laughable speed because it would spend too much energy otherwise. In this form the Switch loses every comparison you can make against last gen. This is the main selling point of the console but also it's Achilles heel. Games will run way worse haldheld mode. If it runs the same docked or not is because the dev want to underpower the docked mode. It's that simple.
David Cooper
How strong is the Switch compared to the PS3 or 360?
Cooper Gomez
If there's one thing I learned from my Vita, handheld versions of a full PC/console game is ass because of complete lack of respect for your time (and in turn, your battery life), unless you don't mind lengthy load times on a handheld for some fucking reason.
Joshua Ward
Weaker than both in terms of raw power, especially undocked, but it's mobile gpu chip has access to some modern features (eg. geometry instancing) the 360/PS3 would have had to do in software/work-around to mitigate some things.
Kayden Anderson
Because the vita was a fiasco. >the only vita launch title was an unplayable port of Borderlands 2 >you could only use sonys own memory cards which were 100$ for 64gb, instead of something like a regular micro sd card >barley any support after the first year
Only the GPU clock changes, the CPU is always 1GHz to maintain game logic. The GPU downclocks by about 2.5x, but even at these reduced clocks it outperforms the 360 and PS3 GPUs. You seem to have missed that crucial point.
Robert Young
>the only vita launch title was an unplayable port of Borderlands 2 wasn't even close to a launch title
Jeremiah Scott
>>the only vita launch title was an unplayable port of Borderlands 2 Wat. That came out two years after launch. The big launch titles for Vita in NA were Wipeout and Uncharted.
Ryan Perry
>especially undocked
But the docl LITERALLY is just a USB-C to HDMI passthrough
David Thompson
For real? I always thought the Wii-U was stronger than 6th gen consoles and the Switch was slightly stronger than it
Cameron Ross
>Vita got an awful port 2 years later
That's worse if anything.
Oliver Morgan
>but even at these reduced clocks it outperforms the 360 and PS3 GPUs Not seeing anything remotely close to as technically demanding looking as Gears 1 or the first Uncharted on the Switch, before devs knew how to milk the hardware in that generation.
Aaron Russell
>>the only vita launch title was an unplayable port of Borderlands 2
Is Sup Forums just a containment board for complete and utter morons now? Jesus fuck.
Elijah Johnson
Why not a good GTA game instead?
Joseph Sanders
I had a vita and while the memory card shit was horseshit, I paid 20 bucks for a 4GB card and that was all I ever had to pay since I bought my games physically
Isaac Turner
The console heats up a lot when docked, and battery life is always a factor when undocked.
Cooper Stewart
>technically demanding >Realistic textures and models
user, do you know how videogames work?
Charles Morgan
>Oh geez Ricardo look at this faggot that do not understand that a fucking lithium battery cannot provide the same amperage as a electric outlet >What a faggot Mortimer
There. I made my point in memes for you brainlets
Connor White
not him but I'm pretty sure that nothing on the switch is technically as impressive as last of us
Jason Campbell
It's almost like realistic textures and models require a higher visual fidelity to not look like shit vs. stylized crap.
Kayden Flores
Okay but Switch can still handle current gen games while working around its limitations. Why couldn't rockstar do it with a previous gen game?
Angel Myers
probably not GTA V because it's a CPU hungry game and the Switch CPU is honestly pretty fucking terrible
