Real time clock? (Not clock speed)
« on: October 08, 2006, 11:47:24 AM »
Ok i was wondering, there are some games out there that use the PS2 date and if its a holiday something special happens. For example a long time ago i played The Simpsons Hit and Run and on Halloween the main menu had pumpkins and all that scary stuff. Same thing with Christmas.

Anyway i was wondering if Bully will have the same thing, cause thats a really cool feature.

No word on that, the game itself will change seasons but I don't think the real world will effect how anything works in the game:)

It would be a good feature and somethin GTA4 should have.
Could you imagine its raining outside and its pissing down in the game as well...COOL!:D :cool:

If you can connect your PS3 to the web all it needs is to pick up the days weather data [predicted forcasts] and the game has to just adjust its self.

But I think that would be over the top Really but Hella FUN!

Well, you can pretty much.

The PS2 reads your day and just makes its own weather, based on predicitions it makes by the CPU. You won't see it snow in August.
