**~bk** · May 17th, 2004

Visit the Official Site for some screenshots. Releasing in October 2004.

Looks great!

Probably like VC, it will be released for the PS2 first and later (maybe a year) to Xbox and PC. It's part of the exclusive deal Sony has with Rockstar.

**~bk** · May 17th, 2004

Yep, so far it's exclusive to PS2.

**Grandmaster** · May 18th, 2004

Meh. I still need to play Vice City :P I should really get the double pack for Xbox.

**~bk** · May 18th, 2004

Haha, you really should play Vice City man. And yeah, I think you should get the double pack for Xbox.

**vern** · May 18th, 2004

Can't wait. From the screenshots I'm guessing you aren't Tommy(?) anymore?

**Hsn** · May 18th, 2004

Yeah, some new black guy...

I still like GTA3's nameless, speechless hero dude... he was cool.

Can't wait for San Andreas though...

Bleh, it looks like Rockstar are re-using the gta3 engine again

What a rip. Hopefully those are just development screenies and the overall look will change.
I was hoping for something a little less cartoony, but then, I'm being a picky monkey anyway

On the other hand, PUSHBIKES

**vern** · May 19th, 2004

They should develop for the PC instead of the PC getting ports. That way quality is not an issue.

Yeah but doesn't Sony put up gobs of $ to get it exclusive for a while before hand? If so thats probably why it works backwards from the logical way.

RagnaroK · June 17th, 2004

For those who haven't read the previews and stuff... I'd suggest reading this article:
http://ps2.gamespy.com/playstation-2.../523232p1.html
It implies that the new GTA could possible allow us to swim!!!!! And eat! And get fat!

**~bk** · June 17th, 2004

Nice!

NerdUprising · June 17th, 2004

Man, it does look groovy so far - BUT I'm sad that it's not set in the 80s anymore... that was 70% of the reason I loved Vice City so much

(and here I insert my shameless flaunting of the cobalt blue Members Only jacket I picked up the other day - isn't eBay fun?!

)
