Show me people who said 1080p made games better then anything else?  Also casuals do know 1080p is a well known term now.  It is not 2001. Why are you so bitter?   Games revolve around tech that's a fact of life.  Nothing wrong with wanting progress. 

People spend 400 bucks on a console are allowed to prefer the same game at 1080p versus 900 or 720p on another system,  especially those who own both. 

It's not like I intended to get it on anything that's not PC.

Hmm that's sad to hear, maybe they do dissapoint some people. But in my eyes they seem to strive for some of the best quality games out there. RDR, LA Noire, MP3, GTA V ... just to name the most recent. 

I do hope you could at least agree that there is more respect for them than for the more bigger players in the business like Ubisoft, Activision and ahum EA ahum.

I'm just excited for first person mode with mouse and keyboard. After far cry 3, the wait for 4 was way too long for me. But now I get two pieces of open world fps candy this winter.

i think 60FPS will be asking for too much imo in a game like this, id rather lock it at 30FPS and crank up details

Whatever, I'm still excited for it.

It's easier for Rockstar because this game is a remake vs a new game built from scratch. 

Can't wait for PC release !

I can still recall the moment when I realized that something was wrong with GTA V: the moment that I got a 'mission passed' screen from simply purchasing a mask. The realization hit me like a ton of bricks. That's when I realized much of the game is little more than glorified button prompts. Missions that told me where to drive to on a map so that I could listen to the guy riding shotgun yammer story in my ear. After that I'd sit and watch a cutscene and then wait for a guy to tell me when to fire my sniper rifle while he continued to yammer story in my ear. The whole torture sequence in one of the missions, that had scant gameplay in it. It was just button prompts, what challenge exists there? Little to none. The torture sequence was put there for the sake of getting some controversy and controversy helps sell a game. Considering the lengths Rockstar will go to sell their game (benches, billboards, sides of buses, faces of buildings), I wouldn't doubt it. It was marketing, not good game design philosophy that decided on that mission.

GTA 5 is great from a technical level and this upgrade to 1080p will surely impress many but from a game design perspective, it's still horribly uninspired. I need to go play San Andreas again to see if perhaps this is just me growing jaded or if indeed GTA is becoming just a means to an end: Rockstar's bank account.
