Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City is a standalone compilation of the DLC episodes for Grand Theft Auto IV, containing both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony on one disc. It was released alongside the DLC release of The Ballad of Gay Tony on 29 October 2009 for the Xbox 360 and released on 13 April 2010 for Microsoft Windows and Playstation 3. It does not require a copy of Grand Theft Auto IV to play, nor is an Xbox Live or PSN account necessary (except for multiplayer).
The engine is still extremely demanding for this game – even months later for the newest hardware. The latest version changes some of the rendering calls and is used partially within the latest Max Payne engine. We tested the game using near maximum settings as displayed below.
Grand Theft Auto IV: Episodes for Liberty city is a very CPU intensive game and, after maxing out all the settings in game, we were still able to achieve playable framerates throughout our tests. There was only one instance when the framerate dropped down at 18fps but this didn't negatively effect our gameplay in any way and the framerate quickly increased again to playable levels. Those who want to ensure this doesn't happen, though, could reduce the graphics settings slightly.
that 480 is a monster. I dont mind those keyboards, I know the reviewer didnt seem to like them, but they work well for me.
Nice looking machine, good all round spec for gamers.
Uk only delivery on their machines I take it?
We have the atom version of this, well it looks a bit different, and its very good. well made products.
@Seveish, Kobalt will deliver to most of europe and probably farther afield if you ask them nicely 🙂
@ Seveish, Kobalt Ship worldwide 🙂
Thumbs down Don’t buy from Kobalt Computers
No communications, no contact, plenty excuses, but no laptop and after 10 weeks time has run out. I cannot stress enough how disappointed I am with the level of customer service and disregard shown. After paying a large sum for a premium product and to receive nothing but excuses and empty promises this is totally unacceptable.
And it’s not like I can review the product as I cot nowhere near one, the review and pictures look good, but what’s the use of that when you’re 3K out of pocket… Keep well clear of these cowboys…
An Alienware would have been better than this…
