I read somewhere that GTA5 will be bigger than GTA 4, San Andreas and RDR combined

That's not that big. RDR was pretty tiny. Throw in a golf course or two, an airport or two, a big lake, a big industrial park and a stadium and there won't be that much real estate. I'd be amazed if most of the streets weren't just copied from the previous games. In GTA4 you could see whole regions of the map that were copied and pasted from previous games, only the faces of the buildings were updated. I really hope they put some effort into this one.

Anyone got Halo 4? I loved 1, 2 & 3, was disappointed by ODST, and had to drag myself through Reach (which i thought felt very dated), so not sure if I should get it. I know it's been developed by a new studio, so I'm hoping it feels a bit fresher than the past 2 games.

Recently bought Halo 4 and Black Ops 2, love the games especially BO2, but. When I play online, infact don't even have to be online just have to be connected to Xbox Live. I frequently get disconnected from XL. Now I don't have the best internet connection and know next to nothing about download/upload speeds etc. I've tried wired and wireless but still always lose connection. Never lose connection via my laptop though.
I've spoken to my interent provider (Karoo, who are awful) and then seem to think I have a faulty phone line? If so is this fixable?
Could my router be the problem, seeing as I've had it for about 6 years maybe longer?
I'd heard of something called a gaming profile which I asked karoo about and they said they will put it on for me, which is something to do with interleaving?
Basically any suggestions would be brilliant and nothing stupid like move out of Hull

Cheers guys.

Same thing happens to me all the time mate.
Karoo are frequently unhelpful despite staying on the phone with them for hours! I can't wait until other providers are able to cover Hull!

AC3 anybody?

Haven't played it extensively yet but it is brilliant so far. I can't fault anything on it. As far as i'm concerned AC is the best game series there is.


Has anybody here got a PS Vita. Just looking for some views on it? I've had the PSP Go but given you can get a Vita/game/memory card bundle for £200 i'm tempted to move up.

I just wish they would have made it more difficult. Like Red Dead Redemption it's a game you play through in one go, rather than having to put any effort in.

My main criticism of AC is the same as most other people's, it is far too repetitive.
Have they changed much about this one or is it still very similar to AC 2?

No. I haven't played it yet, although I have bought it but from what I've seen and read its almost a complete revamp.
