I'll be on....never.....or until I get the game...which I never plan on buying  I will admittedly say that the game looks fun though. Makes sense. Well, let me try to sum that up. It looks fun, but but I've never really thought they were great (even the ones that looked fun). I've bought a few of them (SA, VC, and IV) and all of them were fun for a week.....and then nothing. |

Huh, might just not be the type of game for you I suppose. If even the much-hailed GTA: SA wasn't enough to keep your interest for more than a week then none of them will probably do much for you in the long run.

Hey mike if you get a minute upload my characters tattoo. Part of the reason I had you take a picture was to display it. lol

You know, I forgot about that. I can upload it but it's blurry as shit, they really did a terrible job. If all the tattoos look like this on the actual character then I'm glad that I decided not to get one.

Didn't look to bad to me at times the game camera zoomed close to my character, example when you leave you apartment to enter your garage.
Could it be the photo camera causing the blurriness?

No, the tatoos just don't have a very high resolution compared to the rest of the game. This is a very common thing unfortunately.(I've seen it in the Sims, the WWE games, Saints Row, and now GTA) |

With how good the rest of the game is, you'd think these things would be touched up. |

The theater thing is probably just to save some disc space. In-game movies are usually compressed video files and therefore prone to blur or artifacting (pixelation). If you look close at things like boulders you'll see that they're a pretty blurry texture as well, another space / data loading decision. Even the characters themselves have some blurry textures, you can see pixelated squares of color if you get up really close to look at the exposed back of a player character. No excuse for the tattoos though, people are being asked to pay some pretty prices for those and as part of a character customization suite you'd think they'd ensure that they look nice and sharp.  |

 Love this shot.  No description.  Nothing creepy about this.  Yeah officer, go ahead and think that you've won. Hey, who's that armed guy taking your final picture? |

I see what you mean now, that image really didn't turn out well did it? I wonder if you got closer in better light (daylight instead of night), if it would help show a better picture? And damn why doesn't my photo's save anymore? Last photo's I have are the winter ones and I should have new ones. |

It seems that every other time I play the photos don't save. I don't even get the option to save them, the picture just snaps and then goes back to the menu.
I don't really remember your character's tattoo looking any better in the light but I guess I could be mistaken, if I think to do so I'll try to take another shot.

You likely wouldn't been able to keep it anyway, unless someone was foolish enough to fully customize a car and not put a tracker or insurance on it, which is extremely unlikely. |

Considering it was an invite only session, i don't think it would be possible. Lol. |

Some free mode photos before I go with me and mike. I drove the Ambulance on top my Stinger then mike climbed to the top of lsc and jumped off. He hit the Ambulance and here is his corps mid bounce.  Face plant!!  Failure.  Right on the hood.  Tried getting closer up, but didn't work. After trying to reposition the van cops came and I had to run, putting a end to mike's fun little suicide game.  I tell ya, Rockstar understands where cars should spawn. lol  |
