    I'm guessing one of two things...

    1. The white icon represents the protag's home while the black icons represent the protag's safehouses.

    Or...

    2. The white icons represent the safehouses you've already bought while the black icons represent safehouses you haven't purchased.

    3 Houses for 3 Protagonists ( 1 for Michael, 1 for Franklin, and 1 for Trevor ).

    As TreeFitty pointed out the White Safehouse Icon changes position on the mini-map in the Gameplay Vid, South for Franklin's home, and West for Michaels. And we already know the location of their homes, so it makes sense that the white house icon represents each individual protags home.

    So whichever character you are currently playing has their home represented as white, while the other 2 protags homes are coloured black on the mini-map. Pretty simple really.

    Maybe the Black house is the third protag's and he is not playable in this mission. They have confirmed you will not always be able to use all 3 on a single mission. it is possible that the unplayable characters safehouse shows on the maps in black.

    Well since im working to 19:45 on V day, I will be picking up my collectors edition at roughly 20:11. At 20:30 im going to get a bath and relax (plus get some brownie points by letting the wife watch her reality drivel on the big TV downstairs). Around 21:45, after reading the manual and checking over some of the pruck that comes with it, i shall move the Xbox down the stairs and send said wife to bed so i can have some alone time. At approx 22:00, when im hoping the install is complete, i shall be savouring every moment of whatever the game decides to allow me to do at that time. As for exploring the map, i like to wait for missions to send me to a new area before i go there, rather than spoil myself on too many details on one journey.

    Make the wife happy before starting up, smart man!

    I will be sucking up to my wife for a few weeks prior to the game because I know I will be terrible husband for a few week after.

    I have already started.

    Why did I open the link?

    If I had a dime for every time I found myself saying that...

    I don't think anyones pointed this tunnel out. At least it looks like a tunnel, but def not a train tunnel, and I don't think there's any paved road there. Ideas?

    I have been staring at this and I cannot figure it out. I see what you mean by tunnel, but there does not seem to be a road leading to it. Maybe it is just the way the light it hitting the mountain?

    If you zoom enough it looks too linear. Abandoned Mine maybe?

    ^ I agree.. I don't want to see the map until I put the disc in my xbox. :) I'm hoping for a lot of surprises when the game actually gets here..

    Fuck that, I want to see the map now that they've revealed a chunk of it and with all the speculation that's been going on. Perhaps without the icons though, so it still has some elements of surprise.

    Shit. I'm still finding things in San Andreas and I've been playing that for years. If they reveled the whole map tomorrow I think there would be more than enough mystery for months if not years. Bring it on I say.

    Hah that is pretty old, but I do agree its Fckn awesome. I can't wait to see what's on the other side of those mountains, theres gotta be a reason other then revealing the entire map that their keeping that under wraps... Or is it just me?

    Not just you. They are definitely hiding something in the north west corner.
