Happy to see MGS Master Collection Vol 2 announced, extremely curious how they're handling MGS4 and if it will retain all the platform specific jokes and comments, and if the iPod and iMacs are still there

Since Yakuza Kiwami 3's graphics is a bit of a hot topic right now, I've noticed that the game has slightly raised black levels if you have FSR Frame Generation on. XeSS Frame Generation is fine however.

Mysterious YouTube channel GrandTheftAuto Tracks has been active over the past two weeks, uploading unreleased songs from GTA1 and full radio mixes of GTA2 as well as long lost promo audio from the old DMA website. Worth a listen for old school GTA fans:

The latest ports of Red Dead Redemption show the importance of having a good PC version as a base, for years this game was stuck on PS3/360 until Double Eleven untangled it and since then this has become one of Rockstars most accessible games. Great work CastIronGames & VGD too.

Small update for my Higher Resolution Vehicles Pack, now version 2.2, nothing major, just optimised shared textures and updated the decal for the Predator. Prepping for a bigger update on another project later.

On the plus side, the people who said Rockstar would drop some news today to distract from the union stuff we're right, ...they didn't specify if it was good or bad news 😏

β€˜Grand Theft Auto’ Studio Accused of Union Busting After Firings Union says 30 and 40 people were terminated. Rockstar Games’ parent company cites β€˜gross misconduct’
