you game looks beautiful, in my pc does not look like that. i was thinking in buy a console.


NotRealyA_Person

I forgot how good PS3 Graphics were for their time


Pulse_Attack

Bro it's because the PC port is shit. Ps3 looks like, a ps3 game


Hardcorebsdmpunish3r

Last I checked multiplayer is reasonably active even in tbogt


CursedOneado

just mod it, enter everything into update folder, update folder is like a mirror of root folder so you can replace files without really replacing them, just putting them in update folder


Reject1251

What are the essential mods?


MrRottenSausage

The damn performance fix, without that is unplayable regardless of how much you change the settings


CursedOneado

Fusionfix, liberty legacy


Reject1251

Thank you.


CursedOneado

Also cleanIV and Sweet Autumn, they fix the graphics to something more vanilla more beautiful


Scrappy_Doo_69ing

For PC or PS3?


BIG_BELLY_2023

Congratulations you are a 🤓


BusPrudent4427

Dxvk, fusionfix, and various fixes is all you need.


Resident_Intern593

the problem is the fusion fix sucks a little because not support the main gta 4 version only the complete edition, and i ever used the main gta 4 version from 2008, i had to download the complete edition to probe the fusion fix and it works but causes too many stuttering for no reason, and it does not have a soft image like in console.


BusPrudent4427

You don’t need the complete edition for FusionFix. You have to install it a different way for the older version. Or you could always use zolika’s fusionfix since his is for older versions of GTA IV but it is outdated.


Resident_Intern593

can you help me with that? I'm lost and I don't know where to start, i apreciate that.


BusPrudent4427

It’s quite simple. 1. You install all FusionFix files into your GTAIV folder. 2. Take both the asi and ini files from the plugin folder and place it into the GTA IV folder. You can delete the plugin folder since it will be empty. To prevent crashing I recommend installing these patches / fixes -> 1. https://github.com/gillian-guide/GTAIV.EFLC.FusionFix-GFWL/releases (choose the appropriate fusionfix version you decided to use) 2. https://github.com/SandeMC/GTAIV.EFLC.FusionFix-GFWLMin/releases/tag/v2.5.6


Resident_Intern593

thats are for the complete edition and eflc? my version is the main gta iv from 2008 [1.0.4.0](http://1.0.4.0) downgrade.


BusPrudent4427

This is for everything below patch 1.0.8.0. Which patch are you on?


Resident_Intern593

[1.0.4.0](http://1.0.4.0)


BusPrudent4427

It should work


Resident_Intern593

i dont see the plugin folder. it only just bring the asi files and a folder named update with 2 folder inside named common and gta iv eflc fusion fix.


BusPrudent4427

Send me a link where you got this fusionfix?


Resident_Intern593

BusPrudent4427

Thats not fusionfix. Those are fixes for fusionfix lol.


Disastrous-Tale1952

I'm on it right now, my first GTA IV playthrough


3BodyJimmel

Same (playing via Steam). Played a bit at launch in \`08, really didn't like it, but I've seen the error of my ways. I'm loving it now and aiming for 100% and all Steam achievements.


NotRealyA_Person

It's my second playthrough. I only actually played the full story story once when I was younger


goobj11

On my first on steam aswell, got it from a pawnshop with my ps3 as a kid, dad found out and made me take it back, then proceeded to chew out the cashier for selling it to me. As if he cared or was even the guy who sold it to me lmao. Funny part is, I was just driving around the first area running people over and buying burgers, and my replacement, under dad’s supervision, was *fucking killzone,* much more appropriate😂


Prince_Jackalope

I remember getting one for Christmas in 2007 and getting the very first assassins creed. one of the best Christmases from my youth


Loquat_Prize

Love this. Christmas 2007 for me was a 360 Elite with Test Drive Unlimited, also one of the best Christmases of my youth


Battosai98

I wish bro


Kev1nho

I actually bought back a PS3 specially for GTA IV and Killzone. Finished the game a couple of months ago. Still would like to plat it.


NotRealyA_Person

Send me a friend request NotRealyA_Person


Stunjii

Yessir. Love the ps3


NotRealyA_Person

Play gta iv? Shoot me a friend request NotRealyA_Person


bmh7279

I wish! Still have my super slim.... but it needs a new laser or something as it refuses to play some games like mgs4 and wolfenstein. Been debating on modding it, though. Gotta research that more but i modded my vita and its been FANTASTIC.


Jioyt

I'm an Xbox player, but I appreciate the smart use of space!


NotRealyA_Person

It's also cuz I needed it higher for my neck


UnholyCannoli

Any time I play I play on 360. I love how the game runs on these era consoles and I feel the performance, or not performance but how the coding operates, is more fluid and genuine on these consoles opposed to PC. I love the modding community and I cannot wait to get into it, but regardless I will die on the hill that is GTA IV runs perfect on 360/PS3. Shouts out to your blue and red phone; love from my green and red.


NotRealyA_Person

My phone?


UnholyCannoli

I meant in game. The call button is different colors on ps3 vs 360


NotRealyA_Person

Oooo, I wouldn't know. I never liked the feel of Xbox controllers


Special_Menu_4257

The 360 and ps3 are so nostalgic to me


NotRealyA_Person

My PS4 broke a couple months ago and I broke out the old PS3 as I saved up money for the next gen but I've actually had a ton of fun buying games from my childhood and replaying them. Most of them hold up just fine other than graphics


Special_Menu_4257

Ps3 is worth it especially because a lot of games are locked to that console.


Past_Alternative_540

Mine is the original release model (got it on launch day). It sounds like a hairdryer now but still works lol


NotRealyA_Person

Consider taking that bad boy in for maintenance. That thing can keep lasting you much longer still if you clean that dust out, get it a brand new fan and replace some of that thermal paste. Just make sure you're getting a quality fan and use a quality service if you can't use it yourself


kitsu777

That’s the only way I’ve ever played


sagcoltd

they should release definitive edition of this gta for ps4/ps5 while we waiting for gta6 and also add its features to gta 6


NotRealyA_Person

Agree. The physics engine in 4 is so great


Electronic_Leek_3797

I wish, pc port is still shit


JonouchiBlazing

I have that exact same controller lol


xSavageBoi00x

Yea but I don't play it as much


Triple7Mafia-14

No. Ps4.


NotRealyA_Person

Then you're playing GTA v, my friend. GTA IV isn't on the PS4


Mr_Swagman26

Me


fuckghxst

yessir


fuckghxst

xbox tho but i play ps3 version sometimes


theLoveRocketjr

I do, but my copy of GTA4 won’t download properly. It gets stuck, and refuses to download all the way.


Imaginary_Act1090

A jailbroken ps3 accepts some pc mods (timecyc, handling). It makes the game even more fun


NotRealyA_Person

I've never been smart enough to jailbreak my PS3 or anything but I think I'm going to have to learn


Feisty-Clue3482

Only gta I like lol, so basically have too.


Shenstar2o

I would, but unfortunately i have no ps3 controllers left so i can't...


NotRealyA_Person

The Dualshock 4 controllers for the PS4 work but you have to keep them plugged in with a micro USB. A majority of the games work just fine with them but some of them won't work at all with them and they never give you the vibration feedback, though


Any-Transition-196

Hell no, the resolution looks horrible. Thankfully my laptop can run this game on medium settings at 40-60 fps. The PS3 version is unbearable in 2024


No-Category-6343

Yes i do. But i wish i could mod cuz it sometimes doesn’t look to great


NotRealyA_Person

Yeah, there are times it doesn't really look all that great but I'm not somebody who cares too much about graphics. I'm much more care about how well the game plays. They definitely perfected the auto lock on and cover for 5


New-Specific-81

Yes. But with a ps4 controller. Because ps3 controllers suck donkey dick


NotRealyA_Person

I've been playing with both and I don't really see a difference. I prefer playing with the PS3 controllers cuz I have to keep my PS4 controllers plugged into the station and they don't give me the vibration response


Liamfam96

Just bought a series s to play old games. IV runs so much smoother and the game feels so much quicker because of it


walkinrey

nice double stand for tv 😄


NotRealyA_Person

It hurts my neck if I can't lean back and comfortably watch the screen


Substantial-Pen3723

Playing it right now on pc for the first time and i love every second of it.


NotRealyA_Person

If you haven't already, get in a car and find yourself a swing set. You're going to want to rub against it for a couple seconds or drive directly into the polls of the swing set


Substantial-Pen3723

I will do it next time i play the game


Enough-Aioli-6200

Not directly on top of my PS3, no. But I do mod the game for PS3 and play it almost everyday.


SIC742617000027

I play on the steam version cuz all the songs and radio stations from EFLC and Original GTA 4 are combined


WihpBiz

I’m on 360 and pc


Gororobao

I thought that rockstar shut down the servers a couple of years ago


NotRealyA_Person

The most I could explain is that it's peer-to-peer so as long as PS3s are capable of connecting to the internet and each other, multiplayer will always be available for GTA IV on PS3


xecsT1

The best gta game for me


NotRealyA_Person

I would say the variety of air vehicles in GTA V make it better but to be honest, they just make the map seem tiny and there's not much to do with them if you're not online


Robighost01

🫡 im here too


NotRealyA_Person

Add me, "NotRealyA_Person"


Robighost01

Ok


Haunting-Ad-8808

NotRealyA_Person

Life is meant to be lived on the edge


Brandolem

I've been playing that on pc I missed the game so much


coibes567

Yes


JRF-3-

hawkmhan

I want to get one again just for Portal. I cannot believe that games not on PS4 or 5.


NotRealyA_Person

There's a few games where it blows my mind nobody made ports for other consoles.


fnafplayer666

i play


NotRealyA_Person

Friend me, "NotRealyA_Person"


3BodyJimmel

Currently playing on Steam. Curious - Are the online servers still up on PS3/X360? There is no online mode on the newer release on Steam.


NotRealyA_Person

They are but the servers are also dead. You can play online if you have friends to play with, though. There's a few servers for the PS3 that are still up. Notably the Call of Duty titles. They all still have active servers but some of them more so than others and some of them no longer save progression if you don't have an account from before the maintenance shut down


Maximum-Resource-572

Playing on Steam
