reasons why the trails look so bad
« on: November 07, 2002, 12:45:36 PM »
ok ive read lots of peep saying about this, and ive got the game today been playing it for last 9 hours. amazing..... got on second island, would of been there earlier, but was messing about doing sub missions.




well the reason the trails look so much more than in gta3 is to make the game look more 80s, i know it sounds weird, but if you watch music vids on mtv, with songs from the 80s, the vid qualty is very poor.. hope you get what im sayiing, this is the reason why they done it


kinda like sh2, having the grainy effect, though u could play it without it

My TV bleeds bright colors (oranges, pinks, reds), so the trails
look really bad. But a friend of mine with a newer Sony Vega
said he plays with trails, and doesn\'t mind it at all.

I think all the bright colors in the game (sun, neon signs, etc)
also add to the effect...

Yeah I didn\'t mind the trails on GTA3 but on Vice City they seemed much worse.  It looks so much better without the trails.

It looks like GTA3 without the trails.

Yeah the trails give you a 80 vibe.

I really like the trails effect, the game looks much better IMO :)

The trails suck. They remind me of when I drink a lot of nyquil and my eyes are gettin\' hefty. Everything sort of waters and trails . I hate that effect...thus I am forced to turn those crap trails off in the game.

I preferred having the trails on in PS2 version of GTA3, but I can\'t stand them in the PC version. I don\'t know about VC yet as I don\'t have it.
