Total Overdose and Mafia....
Just cause is not recommended.

There aren't much games with this kinda open ended gameplay.

Wait till it is released for PS3.. Well, um, Wait one more year for the PC port.

PS3 has a 8 Core (6 usuable) CELL Processor, So Um, you'll need a SuperComputer to emulate it.

Simpsons Hit & Run. Its a comedy and not criminal althugh you break more laws in this game than in gta

And whoever told you that all those processors will be under maximum load while running GTA 4??No need for a supercomputer methinks..

i think subbzzz meant, that a PS3 emulator (if possible) will fry the proc. as does the PS2 ones.

PS2 games have poor gfx. compared to PC titles. right?
PS2 is too old now. right?

then WHY isnt there a proper PS2 emulator, which plays mainstream games, at playable fps?

Yup! Thats exactly what I meant, If you see, XBOX (one) had just a 700Mhz P3-based Processor, But there ain't a single perfectly working Emulator! (The same holds true for PS2).

Imagine doing that for a PS3! You _do_ need a supercomputer! In fact, PS3 can theoretically do 100+ GFlops! So 10 PS3s = 1TFlop. You should've read the recent news that Wipro is planning an affordable 1TFlop SuperComputer!

In Fact, CELL is already being used in IBM's supercomputers. Imagine Emulating a game that is taking advantage of the entire processing power of CELL :shock:
