It's not perfectly fine, but this kind of stuff was common back then. I remember playing Skyrim on the Xbox 360 and both the resolution and framerate were consistently crap. No one complained. These days people call anything that doesn't run perfectly "unplayable". Framerate dips to 50fps during heavy load? Unplayable. Seriously that word is thrown around everywhere, it's just annoying. No one called GTA IV unplayable on the PS3 back when it released. |
The Xbox 360 version is far better.
And I'm calling it unplayable even if used to play my games on a shitty PC which used to run games at 320p@15fps, and I am almost exclusively playing my games on the Switch nowadays, mostly 3rd party ports, so I don't use the word "unplayable" lighlty.
I even do cloud gaming for years now, with a DSL connection, and with all the problems it can have.
Heck, I even finished GTA III 2 weeks ago on the Switch despite everybody calling it a hot mess and a buggy unplayable game. I thought it ran just fine.
But I'm sorry, GTA IV on PS3 is the only game I quit playing because it was unplayable.
