Can you please put this into spoiler tags, some don't want to read the article and that may contain info some don't want to see.

They mention a mission in Grove ST, they mention going to Grove ST, they say Grove ST is ran by Ballas, in the hands-on video they also mention Grove ST. Grove ST is in so update dem maps.

There was hardly any new information in that video at all. And the questions were a joke.

Here's some good Questions that should have been asked and answered ~

- What does the Melee Combat feel like? And do the characters have different styles? Can you learn new combat moves at a Gym or Dojo?

- Are the Boats, Planes & Helicopters customizable as well?

- Did they see any new Sports or Activities?

- What were the controls like for the Planes and Helicopters?

- Did they see snow in any areas of the map?

- What new animals did they see in the Countryside?

- Are the Safehouses and/ or Businesses customizable in some way? And are there missions involved with the new Businesses? ( like in Vice City Stories )

- What was the coolest weapon they saw that hasn't been mentioned in any of the Previews yet?

- Does wearing the wrong colors get you into trouble in gang neighbourhoods?

- Do the police have Tasers or Mace now? And does Noose have anything new in their arsenal? Like Flashbang Grenades/ Riot Shields/ Attack Dogs...

- What weapons can be fired while driving a vehicle?

- etc, etc, etc...

Definetly, they had the opportunity to give real answers and it was wasted with questions that felt pointless. And soryy about the spoilers, I just thought that if people clicked here they would be expecting spoilers.

Of course they wouldn't have answers for everything.

But they could of had better, more relevant questions than stupid shit like "Do the cars run on Gas"? or "Will there be a Demo before release"?

What the hell?!?

Also, maybe instead of trying to answer questions that they had no clue about, they could of answered questions relating to in-game stuff they had actually seen...

There will be a lot of stuff they simply aren't allowed to talk about. IGN have had a massive exclusive, they aren't about to blow that (and the money they'll lose by defying legal ramifications) by talking about stuff they weren't supposed to.

Also, why do you want to know the ins and outs of a ducks arse when you can find out for yourself in 9 days?

Fair Enough. I guess there was a little bit of interesting information in the vid.

And it's probably better to leave a few surprises for when I actually sit down and play the game.

I'm just a little bit annoyed because they could have just made the video shorter instead of showing the same question twice and reading out pointless questions just to make it a bit longer.

Idk what people are bitching about.. We could not have had any news or info at all, so I'd rather watch a video where the guys who have actually played the game talk about it, rather than cvg or somebody just speculate for a half hour about what they want in the game..

IGN Article ~ Rockstar Games: Time Travellers - http://www.ign.com/a...time-travellers

Here are some of the old GTA maps from the Article ( it's interesting to see the changes made over the years ) -

Grand Theft Auto's ( Original ) Liberty City & San Andreas ( 1997 ) ~

OriginalMaps.jpg

GTA lll's Liberty City ( 2001 ) ~

GTA3Map.jpg

GTA Vice City's Map ( 2002 ) ~

VCMap.jpg

I wonder what a Next-Gen Vice City Map would look like?

Looking at the VC map again. It looks tiny, but in game it felt so much bigger. I don't have any concerns about how big GTAV will feel.

That Rockstar time travelling article WAS very poor. Not only did they say that GTAIII's Liberty City was based on New York "to the smallest detail", when Rockstar has openly stated that it wasn't, but they also refer to RDR as a GTA game, complete with spoilers.

Not to mention that they also didn't even talk about Episodes from Liberty City, CTW, VCS and LCS...

It reads like a high school essay, not worth the time!
