Sony's PS3 Digital Version of GTA 5 "unplayable" recommended not to Download on PS Store

[FloorGeneral]

you got a 7200 rpm drive in your shyt? I do in my launch ps3.

Nah, I read somewhere that getting a faster one really didn't make much of a difference, so I just got a 5400.

 

[kingdarius]

been playin digital since day one and literally have had not one single issue ....

 

[Numpsay]

How does it compare against the digital version for the 360?

Imagine if this was issue on the 360 the stans would be having a field day bashing! Do you know why a thread shytting on the PS3/4 don't do numbers? Because most of the Arcadium regulars are on team Sony so of course they stay away from the thread but you can bet your ass they read it. They didn't comment because of no spin potential to turn it into a positive or they will call it a struggle thread.

maybe it's struggling because it's untrue and the digital foundry article says the exact opposite of the thread titleopposite

no uno problemo

Digital Foundry emerges disappointed from the digital experience.

In our testing we saw contrasts between the disc and digital PS3 releases, where the Blu-ray version has clear advantages that make it the preferred buy.

I heard the xbox version was having difficulty running too, the disk too

 

[ChrisDorner]

y'all can struggle reply all day but that won't make the PS3 version playable all of the sudden

Uh, I and many I know have the ps3 download version & no one has complained yet.

Just like many installed both discs on Xbox & had no problem, while seemingly a shytload of people had an unplayable game

There will always be isolated problems on both consoles, doesn't mean it's happening to everyone

 

[ChrisDorner]

Lol @ the links in the OP

nikka sat down & googled "GTA V PS3 problems" looking for thread material

The struggle is real with the Xbots

 

[Klint_Beastwood]

I think it's the EU Psn that's having problems.

So far no issues, put in 16 hours, no freezing, framerate drops or pop-in issues. Graphics and game is runnin' crisp.

 

[Chrishaune]

Ok, so I just had one graphical problem. I was hitting the streets on my motorcycle when the ground dropped from underneath me. Couldn't see any of the streets or sidewalks, just buildings, cars, signs, and anything above ground level. It happened for like 5-10 seconds, but that is all I've seen and I've been playing over 22 hours.

 

[iamstr8fire]

PSN version zero issues for me.

They say the nikka PS4 appeared like Mothman Prophecies and foretold this story

Imagine if there was a physical alternative for people to use.
