However, they also fit the teeny Korean Pavilion by Olympic Blvd into the game. They nailed down all the best-known skyscrapers, obviously, and got in pretty much every named tower in the city that reasonably fit into the reduced size. Rockstar also paid attention to some of the physically smaller, but no less iconic landmarks present in the inner city. One such example is the round tower of the Capitol Records Building, represented as the Badger Communications Building in Vinewood, Los Santos. These buildings are large, towering over their surroundings, usually have names, and while not notable from a tourist point of view, locals will likely recognize them nonetheless. You've also got your less iconic, but nonetheless unique elements of the Los Angeles skyline transplanted into Los Santos. Both the building and the surrounding park are extremely detailed and accurate in-game, and the view is just as astounding. The observatory is a near carbon-copy of the Griffith observatory looking over real-world LA. It's not that the observatory itself is scenic - though the building and the park around it are more than pleasant - but the view, as the whole city stretches out below you. Galileo Observatoryįlying straight back to near where the Vinewood sign is located, we find ourselves standing at one of the most scenic locations of GTA 5 - the Galileo Observatory. While the average traveler going through an airport won't get a good feeling for how the entire complex is laid out, since many areas are only seen by employees, players are much more free to explore LSIA in GTA Online, so possibly the differences are necessary from a security standpoint as well. The pseudo-courtyard arrangement you see when approaching by car is kept mostly intact, but the runways and auxiliary buildings have been shuffled around a lot. The building themselves match their Los Santos counterparts, however the virtual version of the airport has a wholly different layout. In GTA 5, LSIA (Los Santos International Airport) is the southernmost part of the city while in reality, LAX is more like near the middle section, if we count administrative growth. GTA BOOM now has its own community discussion forum! Chat directly with our guide creators, ask questions, & get tips and advice. Going to the entirely other end of the map, where the airport is located, shows us that the developers decided to exclude that oddly shaped lick of the city which technically counts as Los Angeles - that thin area connecting main LA and the Terminal Island area cutting through Torrance and Compton. Nonetheless, the way the letters are organized with a slight wave in them is perfectly accurate. Its position compared to the bulk of the city is fairly different, as in real life the northern chunk of Los Angeles wraps upward, and the southern half of the city extends below it to the east, while in-game the sign is located at the far north-east corner of the city and is pretty outlying. That huge sign sticking out of the side of Mount Lee has been recreated in GTA 5 as the iconic Vinewood sign planted on the renamed Vinewood hills. It's that one stereotypical characteristic of the city which is the only thing a bunch of people who haven't ever been there will automatically think about, and that one characteristic that locals would wish the world would forget because there are so many other great things the city could be known for. So get ready to blast off in a rocket fuelled Starfield performance preview.Obviously, the first thing that most people, especially foreigners, think about when hearing "Los Angeles" has to be the huge Hollywood sign. We also compare the improvements over the previous showing, enhancements within the engine, and much more. The biggest question after the show(s) was: why is it 30fps on Xbox Series X and Series S and not 60fps? In this IGN Performance preview, we dive into the details shared by the team, the revealed PC minimum and recommended specifications, and how the Creation Engine 2 works, comparing the previous games to gauge some of the potential reasons why the team might have chosen 30fps. With Starfield being the center of the Xbox 2023 Showcase last week, Bethesda gave us a deep dive into one of the biggest games this generation.
