GRRR God dammit!!

Thank you for contacting Play-Asia.com.

We regret that we are unable to provide an estimate time frame when we can ship out 'GTA IV' at the moment as this is really depending on the stock level which our suppliers could provide us. Please no worry, we will make sure to ship out this order immediately once stocked. Thanks for your patience.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Best regards,

Bryan

Dont worry? Of course I know that you will ship it when it's stocked. WHEN THE f**k IS THAT!? :rofl:

On the play-asia site it says they will be recieving the pre-orders tomorrow and shipped out. So considering it takes time we should recieve it no earlier than late next week or the following week.

yeah? hmm I'll have to pay attention again, but I swear it said 720p.

Yeah its weird, call of duty does it aswell.

In the settings menu on the PS3 where you set the video settings (720,1080i,1080p), if you have all three selected it automatically plays on 720. However if you deselect 720, it will play on 1080p. I wonder why it does this :rofl:

Doing a burnout for a while blows your tyres!!! Fantastic :)

Yeah they're site says that, but this guys answer doesnt sound promising:

so the only thing to be cut was... an anal raping scene? lol

so, how cheap is play asia compared to buying it from a retailer her in Aus?

Theres a few other things.. Nipples censored, blood doesnt pool on the ground etc etc

Its not that much cheaper than BigW who had it for $78 or something. It's $70AUD on Playasia. The only reason that I ordered from playasia instead was that I didnt expect it to come out at such a low price in Oz! Most big PS3 games are $100+

Yeah I ended up paying $73.00 AUD including delivery. Kinda sucks now I hear BigW is selling it for $78.

Ohwell thats life.

For anyone who has not yet bought the game

in the o/s edition when you pick up hookers you can pick between 3 "services" which are then played out in front of you in full view! in the aus version you pick them up and jus see the bumper bounce up and down.

well this should explain my resolution question. and why mine defaults to 720p. pinched from another forum:

"There are 3 types of HD games on the PS3.

Games that are 720p native (will not run at higher resolutions).

Games that are 1080p native (will run at 720p, 1080i & 1080p).

And games that support 720p & 1080i.

You can't force or "trick" a game to run at 1080p if it doesn't support it. What you are doing is getting it to run at 1080i, then the PS3 is outputting the signal progressive. The reason games that support 720p and 1080i default to 720p is that 720p outputs at 60 frames-per-second, and 1080i is half that (30 fps). Visual detail on a moving image is about the same for both resolutions (1080i is twice as many pixels, half as fast) but the higher frame rate is better for gaming. So when you try and force a game to 1080p you are actually getting a lower frame rate, and no increase in quality.

The reason they put 1080i support in games is that some older HD sets do not have 720p (they are 1080i only for HD), and on those sets a 720 only game ends up running at 480p SD resolution (Sony never enabled full hardware scaling for HD games). The game knows the best resolution to run at, so don't waste your time trying to "trick" it because you can't get 1080p out of a game that doesn't support it. Games that have true 1080p support will run at 1080p. If the game picks something else then that is the best resolution for the game.

NOTE: COD4 is a special case because it does "support" 1080p output, but it is not rendered at 1080p. COD4 has software scaling built-in to the game engine. It is actually rendered at 600p and scaled to whatever resolution your TV requires, so the game is not really a 1080p game."

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
