Grand Theatre Auto

I’ve had GTA4 a while now, and was playing through it while trying to wrestle with annoying dodgy framerates and annoying fiddly settings that display how badly it’s ported (which is a shame as the game itself is great) before Christmas. Then after my computer died and has since been ressurrected this last month, one of the first things I reinstalled was GTA4, which is now running a lot quicker now for some reason – whether it’s the second patch or installing onto a cleaner hard drive, I have no idea. However, I can not only run it at a decent resolution, but I can now turn on the clip capture and use the PC version’s Video Editor for the first time. I will in the near future hopefully be jumping on some Party multiplayer games soon for more random frolicks, but for now I present for your consideration my first two GTA4 movies. They are of course, just a bit of fun – but the editor is surprisngly profecient, although having a lot of experience with various video editing programs throughout my educational years does make me pine for certain things that would make it a lot easier, such as being able to have a more flexible timeline so I don’t have to replay the whole clip to get timings correct for titles…

Of course, I’m blatently jumping on the bandwaggon here, but theres some good stuff out there, if you’re willing to look.
