I can see San Andreas being set in the 70s... It's gotta be. Especially with the whole 70s rock comeback, the soundtrack could be awesome.


Yeah. 70's with CHiPs.  biggrin Or the 60's with hippies roaming about and you taking RC rampages from their love VW Vans.  smilewinkgrin Or running down the tye-dye hippie conga line for G! bonuses.

Or you could set it in the early 90's and use R*'s old-skool soundtrack from their Thrasher skateboarding game, with hits from A Tribe Called Quest, Grandmaster Flash(?) and Sugar Hill Gang.

Car-mounted Weapons from GTA2. Mainly...machine guns,  oil slicks, and MINES.  yes 

Mostly though, I hope GTA:SA has RAGDOLL physics like Max Payne. So if you run a gang member down at the right angle, he gets stuck in your windshield with his legs swinging about until you get him removed at a Pay 'n Spray.

The 70s hippies were cooler anyway; suffering the dark side of all that substance abuse... I want 'em to make GTA: Las Vegas, set that in the 70s... Just like Fear and Loathing... Maybe San Andreas will be a little loathing-esque?
Also there was the San Fran part of Blow, maybe it would be a bit like that? After watching that movie, I thought how cool it would be to make a GTA-esque game that followed the whole life of some guy, both in and out of the big house. That would be cool.

Or they could make it in the 1990's and have an exclusive soundtrack by Tool.

I still protest that GTA Thailand with rickshaws n all would've ripped.

The refined version? Oh dear me, no. From what I've seen and heard, Rockstar just don't seem to put the effort in on PC versions anymore, which is an awful shame. The put more into the shitty X-box versions for christs sake!

Still, I can be smug about it. PS2 rocks. However, if anybody would like to argue that, please PM me. Your opinions will be duly laughed at and ignored.

I agree Mandrian. The PS2 has a better advantage then xbox and gamecube. For starters, it has a dvd player, meaning it's slightly more technically advanced then the game cube's weenie little disks. I think that Xbox is trying too hard (like pepsi), just because it is made and endorsed by microsoft....

Let's just hope the PC system requirements won't be sky high...  dead That P3 1.13 GHz at home should be more than enough...

    to mademan;

    wh-wh- whaaaat????? An exclusive soundtrack by who???
    Not only would Tool NOT do this, but I would also protest them being on such a mainstream soundtrack. It would ruin them. And what they are about. And besides, Tool wasn't "popular" enough in the 90's to be featured on the soundtrack.  Do not disagree with me. Tool is my forte'.

    I AM RANCORMONSTER,
     
    and TOOL is MY favorite band!!!!

    And P.S;  Just because I mentioned TOOL in a previous post, everyone's going to copy me???  angry ;

    Hey rancormonster, you better not let Needles see that quote, or else you just might be bitched at for taking his line. As for tool... the band itself is pretty decent, but unfortunately the videos contain are some of the grossest things a music video could have. Also note that you shouldnt be eating while watching a tool video...

    Now back to what really matters, GTA!!!

    From a recent article regarding Best and Worst Crime cities on MSN...

    Top 5 Worst Large Cities for Crime
    4. Phoenix-Mesa, AZ
    Phoenix-Mesa has one of the highest rates of auto theft in the nation.

    Mesa Grande.  tounge

    Crime Stats per 100K (as seen heer)
          
    Violent crime  (murder, rape, assault, robbery)
    Los Angeles: 1,358.5
    San Francisco: 989.7
    Average: 496.4      

    Property crime: (burglary, larceny, GTA)
    Los Angeles: 3,713.9
    San Francisco: 5,233.9
    Average: 4,532.5

    And I thought Los Angeles would win this thing hands down. XD Go SanFran!

      It was already anounced that the next GTA would be in San Andreas. This could be one of the safehouses.

      The first batches of "art" and screenshots are out for San Andreas. smile All three appear to take place in the ghetto during a seriously apocalyptic sunset. From the looks of things though, it looks like the game will take place in Los Angeles instead of SanFran.  cry 

      Commentary on screenshots:
      1. OOOOH. Hood-style driveby in a Greenwood.
      2. LOWRIDER. Gotta love the detail on that Voodoo. cool Can't identify that car just sticking out the left side of the shot though...
      3. Bicycles.  laugh

      We should do a petition for R* or something to get them to release the PC version alongside the PS2 one. I'm tired of spending 4-6 months flaming the bastard n00bs here while thinking that I could be playing San Andreas....but alas, no PC version yet.

      Though if they were to implement multiplayer or something else sexy into the PC game...then I'd wait.
