Cool screens, and that video was awesome. Can't wait to play that thing.

I liked it. Nostalgia for me brings me back to the days of Tu Pac and when rap was generally good. Graphics look alot better and the video from what I saw was pretty fluid. I just hope it will be totally badass.

funny, i thought it was really grainy and the graphics dont look much better than VC, however i'm still really looking forward to it. I assume they'll be updating frequently as the game is due out in less than a month worldwide.

i'd like to see what is going to be on the soundtrack besides rap, as i'm not a big fan of agressive spoken word. Although some NWA stuff was hilarious

I'd have to agree, but I'd also say that the theme and the charachter movements are better than VC.

true, also, there are supposedly a lot more interiors and things you can do... like getting fat from eating too much fast food and not working out lol. i've heard you have more control over your goons too, unlike VC where they wander around like headless chickens, ignoring you. I seen a barbers shop in there too... wonder if the afro the guy got is customisable lol that'd be inetresting.
But!! so far this is a PS2 game only.

I wonder if the opposite works as well.

apparently so, when you work out, you gain strenght, lose weight etc..

I wish fallout 3 would be similar so that you could gain weight or get fat and stuff like that Ilike it when rpg's are badass and intricate like that.

Nice to see they're moving away from the mod scene. It was getting a little stale.

What? PS2 ONLY? Shit, that sucks ass.
I guess I have to download a PS2-emulator and warez the game.

Fuck you, RockstarGames.

None of the PS2 emulators currently available will really play a PS2 game....Especially a new one. I think there are a few that run the bios rather smoothly, but for the most part, they're just bios emulators for now.

Also, PS2 only isn't so bad...I've got all 3 consoles, so I'll be able to play the day it comes out. Though with GTA 3/VC, I waited till they came out on the XBOX, and I was vastly pleased with the improvements over the PS2 version.

I had a PS2 and tried Vice City, load times and framerate and control issues made it suck. So I'm waiting for the PC version or seeing if there's a way to emulate it on the PC.

You idiots, there's going to be a PC version. It'll just be about a year after the PS2 one. JUST LIKE BOTH PREVIOUS GTA GAMES OMG

The original GTA games came out for PC first. OMG. And I liked GTA I and GTA II a lot more than GTA III. GTA London was quite fun, too.

I've also noticed GTA3 and VC can only be controlled correctly using a PC, too.

So what about GTA:SA coming out on X-BOX? GTA and GTA:VC came out on X-BOX so why not GTA:SA? It will suck bigtime if it doesn't.

I remember when Vice City was released, they said it was for the Playstation 2 only at first. Yeah right, of course it was released for the X-Box and the PC later, those markets have been far too lucrative for Rockstar to ignore.

I see your point I am just jumping to conclusions like I always do. However are they going to have an original soundtrack or are they going to bring back the beats from the day with like Wu Tang Clan, Tu Pac, Master P, Ice Cube, Ice T, Dr.Dre and classic cool ass rapers like that?
