wow first one is pretty epic

  • Glide Wrapper will now load properly on PC by adding -3dfx to the end of the game shortcut

That is some epic nostalgia right there Diablo 2, 3dfx, glide wrappers, kids these days have no idea how epic things used to be.

Gta4 is one of those games that will always hold a special place in my heart. Even though it's been years since it's a release I still take pleasure in playing it even though it's been a while I had a blast the last time I installed it

I bought it on steam several years back but that account was linked to a Gmail of mine that was hacked unfortunately so I lost all the games tied to it including Grandtheft auto four :(

If the cards were like in GTA IV the roads would have felt better also. It was my dream to drive with those physics in rural areas, sadly R* though a hyper car should handle better offroad that a off road truck, that was a sad day. Atleast we have GTA IV SA project for that.

Still the roads in GTA iV are more real life and bumpy and other shit.

I installed GTAIV for testing...

The thing runs funny still... stutters a lot no matter what settings you throw at it... interesting fact - it performs better when using DSR@4K... The CPU/GPU usage become less funky.

Runs like a dream for me @ 3200x1800 with max settings.

Oh. Patches for an eight year old game. How quaint.

Yeah but it's better than the new GTAV POS they released by far, then again i was more about the driving which GTAV cannot touch.

First GTAV game i never got at release, so sad.
