it will be realesed in october in sweden

But if you look at that map, the words City Limit are around the city. The roads heading out of the city dont lead anywhere, they're either dead ends or simply curve back into the city.

Also, the land around the city is striped / shaded as if its out of bounds.

From looking at that map, i think that'll be the entire city. What a disappointment.

I was expecting this update

Theres another video too!

Posted by etaab
OK, looks like there is two cities at least.. so theres the possibility of a third.

But.. am i the only one who thinks that each city in GTA:SA is about the same size of 1 of the islands from GTA3.

Basically what im saying is, the game will probably not be any bigger than Liberty city.

Posted by wapchimp
Ive got a ps2 mag that says its 3 times bigger than vicy city!

Posted by Dj Boyi
And i've read that its even bigger than that wapchimp,including the countryside it will be 6 times bigger than Vice City!

The bad news is its been delayed a week!

Just over 4 weeks to go then

Btw,check out this one,its looking good too!

Grrrr ! My PS2 wont read any discs, all im getting right now is DISC READ ERROR

I bet it'll cost me £40+ to get Sony to send me a replacement console.

Posted by methylated_spirit
£60. Its the laser thats gone, mate. Do you stand the ps2 on its side? That knackers the laser, i would advise against doing it.

Posted by mixin
My release day PS2 is fine and it's been on it's side most of its life

Posted by etaab
No, its never been on its side. But i watched Matrix Revolutions on Saturday.

Ive heard using the PS2 as a DVD player can kill the laser / motor.

Posted by methylated_spirit
Yeah i've heard that too. I had my ps2 on its side all the time, then one day i lay it flat, and it started scoring perfect circles in all my games, i was fooking raging! I took it in to get fixed, new laser £60, annd the guy said NEVER stand them up it wrecks them.

I used to get the same problem,just take it apart and clean the laser with your Sony Ericsson static cloth,it worked for me

Posted by etaab
Any tutorials on taking the PS2 apart ?

Posted by Dj Boyi
Undo the screws? ;-)

Got my copy of San Andreas pre-ordered, £32.99, no deposit! Pretty good, huh?

Posted by Dj Boyi
I got it preordered for £29.99 from Amazon,free delivery,roll on Friday! :-D Wey Hey!!!

Posted by methylated_spirit
I cant wait!

Posted by maddav
I can't wait myself, I've been playing Vice City all this week, to get myself 'ready', I haven't pre-ordered, but I know the guy who sorts out PS2 games at my Tesco, so he said he'll save me one.

Posted by Davo_169
GTA:SA doesnt come out in AUS until mid november im sooo pissed off i have to wait that long.

Posted by maddav
That's horrible!

Oh well,it's out in the US now, roll on friday!

Posted by methylated_spirit
Woohoo!

Posted by methylated_spirit
Hey you can skydive in San Andreas!

Posted by Burgaz
Is it gonna be worth getting a PStwo for? I was gonna get an xobox for halo2... But with gt4 and san andreas on the Pstwo.. Hmmm.. What do i do??

Posted by methylated_spirit
Well, you can get both a ps2 and an x-box for a hundred quid, i would go for ps2, better games...although Halo rocks, utterly rocks. So does GTA: series, only available on ps2...


Posted by maddav
PS2 all the way!

SKYDIVING!! COOL!



Posted by methylated_spirit
And you can swim (huzzah!)

Posted by maddav
Yeah, i read that a while ago, if you want more to read, check out the review at ps2.ign.com it talks about, how you improve your 'skills' the more you use them, like:

swimming
running
cycling
driving
shooting, (as you improve, you can do more with a certain weapon)



Posted by Dj Boyi
Sony are releasing a slimline ps2 the same day as gta san an in the uk,go for that man! ;-)

Posted by ASM
The slimline PS2 looks really ugly. GTA SA COMES OUT FRIDAY! Wee I wonder when Amazon will send it to me by, hopefully Saturday.

Posted by methylated_spirit
i preordered mine in a local privately owned shop, the queue was out the door! The guy was standing at the counter with a notebook, all he said was "Name?" and "phone number?" "we will call you when it comes in" and "next", with the occaisional "Fahim, phone up and order another 25 copies".

Posted by Johnex
There's this mod for gta3 and vice called mta or something which enables multiplayer on internet and on lan with others that have the mod. Last time i checked it was a pre-beta, but i think it's done now. Cheers!

Posted by Dj Boyi
I read that the new ps2 also has a built in network adapter :-)

Posted by Johnex

-This is the multiplayer mod i was talking about!!
-Say thanks to mister Johnex

[ This Message was edited by: Burgaz on 2004-10-27 00:09 ]

Posted by maddav
Yep, the official word is that it's coming out on November 1st (Monday), despite GAME saying that it's shipping this week.

It's a case of, who do you trust?

Posted by Burgaz
Bugga! I want one friday!! Hmm...

Posted by maddav
Well if you are definitely getting San Andreas and a PsTwo, just go to GAME on friday, and buy the game, ask if they have any PsTwos, if not, when?

There's a good chance that they will have them in, but won't be selling them until Monday, so if you ask REALLY nicely they might just sell you one

Posted by Burgaz
Tried that before and even ffered a bribe when the wind waker came ut n the cube.... didn't work tho... Bastids!!

Posted by maddav
Damn! Well, fingers crossed, i could be getting San Andreas today, I heard they just got some stock in, where I work, so I'm going to ask my pal who works in stock control

Posted by ASM
I think it sucks I'll be getting San Andreas when I go back to college, I wont have enough time to turn my character into a bodybuilder (Yes I'm gonna make him work hours on end in the gym!)

Quote from an interview in FHM with "Mr Cartoon", LA tattoo artist who has worked on Eminem, Dr Dre, Justin Timberlake, blink 182, 50 cent.......

FHM: You collaberated with Rockstar, supplying tattoos and consulting on their new game GTA: San Andreas...

"Yeah, they told me "do what you wanna do". We took them off to the hoods, to SOuth Central and East LA and Compton. They wanted the real shit, so we'd be driving around the 'hood with 5 Swedish guys taking pictures with digital cameras. Although they might have been Scottish."


FHM: How realistic have they got the game?

"They would take a picture and re-enact that shit almost f**king perfect. I grew up right here, and when i saw the game i was like "oh my god - when people look at this game they are getting the real shit."


Shows how hard they have worked on it, i really cant wait now!



Posted by Burgaz
I'm confused... Gamestation say they'll be sell PSTwo's on Friday the 29th?? Look here: http://www.gamestation.co.uk/product.asp?id=ps20006
