Digital Foundry Evaluated New GTA 6 Trailer

Credit: Rockstar Games The new 90-second trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 has allowed the experts at Digital Foundry to assess the game's technical state. The main takeaway is that Rockstar appears to have finally fixed a long-standing issue with the RAGE engine related to animation. Previous showcases of GTA VI impressed the experts at Digital Foundry, yet they also revealed an issue that has plagued every Rockstar project built on the proprietary RAGE engine—at least since the release of GTA IV in 2008. The problem concerns animation pacing: even with a stable frame rate, the movement of the camera and characters appears jerky. This creates a misleading impression that the performance is lower than it actually is. The GTA VI reveal trailer is free from this flaw, which has lon...

GTA V Launched Directly In Browser

Gaming, Trendy

Credit: Rockstar Games The hit open-world crime action game GTA V, developed by the British studio Rockstar Games (owned by Take-Two Interactive), received an unofficial browser-based version 13 years after its release—but lost it almost immediately. After its launch, PlayGTA5.com initially displayed a Cloudflare 1014 error, and the site's content was subsequently replaced with vintage 1970s-style food advertisements. The site is now completely inaccessible. No official reason has been given for the site's shutdown. There is no confirmation that Take-Two Interactive or Rockstar Games have issued legal demands to the developers. However, intervention by the rights holders remains a possibility; Take-Two has previously succeeded in shutting down other unofficial projects involving t...
