  1. My thoughts:

    1) San Francisco, whilst not new to GTA, could include Oakland, San Jose, Napa Valley, Mount Diablo, Yosemite NP, and the Bay (Alcatraz!). It would look amazing in HD and would provide enough variety to keep gamers interested;

    2) I think Chicago could work ;

    3) I love the Mexico City idea. Aside from the potential of having it's own game, when R* does combine all of their cities in one game you could feasibly have a Mexico City mock-up thrown in with LS, LC, VC, SF, LV and whatever else R* comes up with between now and then.

    4) As an Aussie I think Sydney has merit but I'd rather see European cities ripped off before us.

    As a joke, I'd love to hear ideas elaborating on gtagirl's GTA: Canada idea.


  2. If they put an aquarium in I think there'd be very few windows that can be broken with gunfire. In saying that, I hope that you can break into tanks and swim with the fish, see the NPC's on the other side of the glass, and in GTA-style, shoot/harpoon fish/sharks/etc and watch scores of families, tourists and schoolchildren watch in horror. Imagine a Sea World type attraction with the dolphins and killer whales doing their tricks for the onlooking audience, only for someone to snipe the animal in mid-air and panic ensues.


  3. Keeping your weapons in IV is easy; don't get busted. Go to the hospital, keep your weapons. Go to jail, you deserve to lose them.

    Several times I've been sat in 'my' car at the traffic lights abiding the laws of the road like a good person, with a wanted level that I hadn't even realised I had, when a scumbag pig drags me out to the floor. It's not like I'm gonna break the traffic laws to stop them arresting me.

    Really? It's not Grand-ma Theft Auto.

  4. Looks like GTA 4 graphics.

    You know you're still going to buy the damn game, whether the graphics are the same or not, lol.

    Yeah, brotherman, you're right. I'm just saying the graphics aren't that much of an upgrade, considering all the time they've had. But, yeah, I stand corrected, they probably had to make do with what they were working with, and I hope they exhausted the PS3's potential. I still think it was a dumb decision on their part to not make this GTA for the PS4, since they would've had more freedom to do a lot of shit. It's all good, though. I still prefer VC over SA, so I ain't 'bout that gfx life. B)

    There's no reason that they can't release a PS3 version and then update the graphics and release it on PS4.


  5. Bronson that's fine, but keep R&B on a separate station to Hip Hop.

    Because if most of the Hip Hop station is soft R&B shit, how am I going to get amped-up for killing some street gangsters and coppers???

    It's Hardcore Gangsta Shit with some slick rhymes that gets the adrenaline pumping for car chases and shoot-outs. Not some dumb bitch moaning about how great she is.

    I was mowing down people to Bob Marley :-)


  6. By population yes, but by area no.

    Thanks, some sites say, "NY is slightly bigger with a bigger population" and "LA is bigger than NY" and so on.

    I knew that LA was bigger because I come from a place in Australia which is very sprawl-like and hence compared to LA but I was surprised by what I found when I went looking for info to back it up. Apparently, for cities with a population greater than one million people, the largest cities by land area are (in order) Houston, Phoenix, LA (468 sq. miles), San Antonio, Dallas, San Diego, NYC (302 sq. miles).

    There's my education for the day.


  7. Speaking of sports and crime, one of the first things I thought of when I read that it was focusing solely on LS was the inclusion of sportspeople and teams as elements in the game. For most cities you wouldn't even entertain the idea but I thought of the Lakers (Los Santos Lochers?) in particular as being a team with the glitz and glamour of LA, plenty of rich guys, connections to A-listers and something very much associated with the image of that area of Los Angeles. Imagine the parodies and storylines R* could have come up with.
