Correto.

A nossa “amiga” Rockstar Games lançou um novo Patch para a versão polêmica de GTA 4 para PCs.

São 33Mb de pura esperança nesse patch, prometendo um desempenho maior em PCs de tecnologia terrestre e com opções para customizar os graficos da água e das sombras (sim essas mesmas que a Rockstar disse que não poderiam ser alteradas pois eram parte da engine do jogo).

Segue uma lista dos “features” desse Patch:

Version 1.0.2.0

Não testei esse patch ainda, na raiva esfreguei o jogo no asfalto até ele sumir…

Bem, tem muita gente por ai dizendo que o jogo ficou mais estavel e que melhorou alguma coisa.
