Universal Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (by Rockstar)

It's attractive when you make lets plays,and apple won't release a displayrecorder like the one I had from Cydia,or the one I spent $2 on

 

Well, having display recorder IMO is subjective. It wasn't as bad as it used to be like the absence of multitasking (added in iOS 4?) and notification center (iOS 6). iOS still needs a major overhaul, it's kinda boring nowadays. Hopefully iOS 7 brings new features.

 

I already knew I had decent English comprehension, but I went ahead and reread what you wrote. Seems pretty clear. Not worth having an internet spat over, but yeah, quite clear. [insert "rolleyes" smiley here...]

DBC

 

Yeah, that's what I thought

 

How far am I into the game when I have to rescue lance?

 

I can't exactly remember, but I think you're about 2/3 the way through.

 

You got a big chunk left. With property missions, I would say, you have about 60%-70% left. You might struggle at the RC and porn studio mission. Add the Malibu mission, prepare to spend a little more time

 

The game isn't crap your deVICE is (see what I did there?). How do you expect games to keep progressing on iOS is they're being held back by hardware? Upgrade your device every 2 years and you'll be good.

 

And the itouch 4 is notorious for performing horribly. I think Rockstar did what they could to optimize it to most things, but having devices that are 3-4 years old would make any new iOS game laggy and crappy.

 

I kept that failing that porn studio mission until friend told me you could just use helicopter to get checkpoints -_-

 

I did motorbike rooftops jumping mission with helicopter - took 1st checkpoint by mistake

 

Really? I thought you have like 10 or 20 seconds to get back to the skimmer or mission failed

 

iPod 4 is about the bare minimum hardware needed to run the game. I'd be happy it works.

 

Well, what iOS version do you have running on them? The iPod 3 should run better with an older build, and if the iPod 4 is running iOS 6, that could be your problem.

 

The iPod 4 also has far more pixels to push and a lot of the very limited system resources go to running the OS. The PSP and PS2 had none.

 

Thanks for the help

 

The ps2 hardware is way more powerful than an ARM RISC processor designed to consume low power for use in portable devices

 

I did. The PS2's resolution was FAR lower than the iPod 4's. Moreover it's a dedicated game console, it has no OS to run.

Just ask a developer which is more powerful.

 

Not true. The PS2 has an OS to run or it would throw up a black screen and not let you play dvd's or do other tasks. PSP has a pretty bloated OS. But you are right about the PS2 rendering at a much much lower resolution.

 

Technically you're correct.

But it isn't running an OS like iOS or Windows or Android. It doesn't have multitasking capabilities or anything else that commonly associated with an operating system.
