Finally, no more falling 30 story's and losing 10 health.
 
Well since there is severed limbs, I'd say there's a good possibility of that happening. Wait remember PSM's article on San Andreas when they were playing a sample of it? They were talking about a cop who gets hit by helicopter blades and getting chopped up into pieces so ya... :)

W0000. Now all I need to do to have fun is hi-jack a copter and fly low with the blades tilted down to pedestrian level. Then watch the body parts fly. :crazy: Muhahaha!




:D
 
Who said GTA doesn't inspire violence lol.Read the posts above.For some reason people like to chop other people in little pieces.
Oooh,i will probably use a propeller plane and instead of lifting up i'll just drive on the sidewalk,grinding everything in front of me.

When you have 100% complete on Vice City that's all you pretty much feel like doing, go ask Acidman, he'll agree. :lol:

Also there looks like there is a ring-road/by-pass going around San Venturra. You think it will be busy? I hope there is gridlock on it.
Click to expand...
I remember R* said there would be high levels of traffic but no gridlock. The new map is ALOT better than the first.

I'm glad that their are 10 planes to fly, that's quite alot, especially when we only had 6 motorbikes in Vice.

About falling producing messy deaths, yay!!! :sly: Like back in the days of the origional GTA's 👍
 
Man I wonder, since the civilians or other people in the game have actual lives like jobs and all, I wonder if they'll have any that'll get depressed and commit suicide. Like jumping off a building?:sly:
 
When I was talking about Helicopter blade patheticness in VC, this is what I was talking about.

Just thought it was a funny screenie that related with my posts earlier......so......there ya go.
 
Here are the links to the scans of that french article, the words are naturaly in french but theres a couple of new screens.

J.V pages n°1
J.V pages n°2
J.V pages n°3
J.V pages n°4
J.V pages n°5
J.V pages n°6
J.V pages n°7

Here is a summary in english of the Jeux Vidéo article:

PAGE 1

---->They say they have more stuff about the three cities.
Then some new stuff:

"622 Broadway Avenue, NYC. On the 4th floor, a huge duplex, more likely to be owned by a real estate company. Crazy people everywhere, even a guy on a skateboard. Another comes speeding through the hall on a "bike" and brakes just on time. The man is Terry Donovan - a big boss at Rockstar - and proudly shows his San Andreas couloured bike. Unique !"

"We are asked to follow Jeff Castaneda - PR manager - and Devin Winterbottom - production manager into the demo room.

"San Fierro"

---> Some talking about the missions. We already know all of it.

PAGE 2

---> Screens only.

PAGE 3

"When storm is going on at San Fierro, stay away from boats and don't swim. The "movement" of the ocean is very realistic and influenced by the weather and climate. "

"Apparently, the developers have not included Alcatraz !!!"

"San Fierro is characterised by 70's style atmosphere, coloured buildings and unique architecture, the hills and the newer modern buildings.
The famous Golden Gate is there."

"There's a garage / showroom with luxury cars, where CJ can steal a car, crash through the windows right on the streets and get away !"

"Cars can be modified with new colors, new rims (big or chromed) and nitro stuff. Great to loose chasing cops."

PAGE 4

---> More about a mission. And the aiming system. (see previous article translation)

PAGE 5

---> Talks about a cutscene, where CJ is told his mom Beverly died. Afterwards it's like a reunion, with everyone joining at Glen Park. The visit in the house is impressive.
"If every house looks this good, it's of an unrealistic level of detail and depth in any gaming world."

Then more about the respect meter. Territory has it's own colour based on the gangs.
You can "recrute" other people to join your gang.

PAGE 6

Mostly screenshots and talks a bit about the buildings in Los Santos, for example the Convention Center and the Chinese Theatre.
Nothing new here.

PAGE 7

Las Venturas...has buildings from the real city such as:

Visage -> Mirage
Caligula's Palace -> Cesar's Palace

But also invented GTA stuff such as:

VRock building
Candy Suxxx stripbar

There are Elvis lookalikes running around. You can enter casinos and play ... you can win and loose.
However, remember the biggest feature of the game "The more you do, the more you'll become"...eating more = become bigger, fight more = become better, etc.
If you play alot at the casinos, you'll get better and earn more money.

The article is finished with something I can translate more or less to this:

San Andreas -> "A hell of a game that promises you a game of hell. A paradise for gamers of all genres."


No big news...
 
Young Maylay (voice of CJ) Audio Clip:
The first audio clip of Young Maylay (who we revealed to be the voice of Carl Johnson in San Andreas a number of days back) has been found online by GTANet. Their internet sleuthing finally came to a close when they uncovered a clip of a rap "duet" between Young Maylay and another of his peers at Audiostreet.net, a huge music database aimed at up-and-coming artists. In the clip, Maylay starts his rap at around 1:18.

Haven't listened to it myself yet, but I will soon. I'm very happy about the fallig off high buildings thing. "Messy deaths"...sounds great. Hope we don't get edited...:grumpy:

The new information is great.
yeti
PS I think LV Airport is underneath the word LAS... The big + of Big roads?!
What do you reckon?
Click to expand...
I would say almost definately.
 
Even More News...This Time from Play UK:
From Play UK:


R* reckon that it takes 100 hours to complete the main story missions.
Cop helicopter fly around the cities, searching for criminals even when you havent got any stars.
Kung fu, boxing street fighting can all be learnt, once you have learnt them you can use them and mix and match between them.
Possibility of hot dog R3 missions!
The Gant bridge is SO big that the weather can be different on both ends.
you have 360 degree camera control. The faster you go the less rotation is allowed - eg. go fast and you can only look left and right.
Los Santos property costs a lot of money.
You can drive a combine harvester into the city.
No 2 buildings are the same (with the exception of a selection of houses in estates which would look the same in real life).
CJ can vault over ledges one handed.

----------------

Looks great. I love the fact that the Police helicopters (the proper ones, not the fly-through ones) fly around the city, even when you don't have stars. I love even more that no 2 buildings look the same. Hopefully property costs alot more than Vice City, too. I mean, who pays $8,000 for a nice semi-mansion?

Also, even though I knew this information before, I love that yuo can learn different fighting styles. Typically, I'm going to learn some street fighting.

UPDATE: Just got back from talking to my guy at EB. Apparantly they just got an update today that Australia are getting the game on Friday, 29th of October. He says 12th of November is not the date for San Andreas, and will most likely not be as the game is finished and there is no reason for a delay here.

He will notify me if there is any information on the release date, as sometimes information could be late getting to them. But according to his sources, the date is now October 29th.

Yeah i thought the 12th of november was a bit unrealistic. Looks like you guys are getting it the same date as us.
 
That is IF you guys get it. But I'm sure you will. I highly doubt it would get banned.

New Info:
In the PSM from France was some nice info about San Fierro:

- You are limited to a few combos at a time. It's up to you to decide which you'll learn and use.
- Each city has a few places where you can learn new moves and combos.
Los Santos -> Boxing
San Fierro -> Martial Arts
- The animation of attacks has improved greatly, and is much smoother than in Vice City.
- As well as swimming, CJ can 'dive'.
- Some new info on the targeting system (Auto-aim):
A green crosshair is great. Yellow is more tricky and black is impossible to kill. For more precision, an FPS like system is available too.
CJ can also use tactical "Solid Snake" moves to kill silently.
- The 'quality' of goods in clothing stores vary:
Binco -> Cheap clothing
Pro Laps -> Sports
SubUrban -> Fashion

-------

Well, he can dive. The coloured cross-hairs plus the coloured circles sounds tricky, but I know in time it will become 2nd nature for me.
 
Nice, I love that no two buildings are the same, that must have taken AGES.

P.S. I'm preordering San Andreas from GPStore when my dad gets home :D
 
Excellent. Better hope it's not banned there.

Personally I don't believe it, but if it is, it's going to suck. You wanna know the funniest thing about that whole thing? My guess is if they don't ban it there, they will edit and cut, just like in Australia, making it pointless to buy from there. :lol: I hope they don't do that, but seeing how strict New Zealand have been on games lately...
 
It's there topselling game so I don't think they will make it the 'cut' version. Many people are paying for the game this way just for the uncut version. I think some people may sue if they payed for the uncut version and they get the cut version.
 
Maybe, but they don't really have a case. At no point have the stores in New Zealand advertised that they are selling the "Un-Cut" version.

No false advertising here.

I sincerely hope for you and me (because I will be playing this alot at your house too, ya know ;)) that this doesn't occur, but I'm saying it wouldn't surprise me.

I wonder if when they say quality they mean looks. And not how long they last for. Can you imagine having to buy clothes all the time? Or perhaps they will stain!
 
Maybe. It's definately possible.

Cheap means that you may get nasty comments on the street.

I will go with either OGF clothes, or if I'm venturing into enemy territory, just casual. I'm also going to Buff up, get a tattoo or two, have a shaven (not bald) head and work on Street Fighting.

I'm also definately going to make my driving skills as good as possible, as I have always really been a driver.
 
I wonder how bad you will be at the beginning of the game with driving?
As long as it is just slow reactions I don't mind, but I'll definetley be working on it aswell.
I'm gonna learn marshal arts, be kinda buff, but still pretty quick. And I'll have a few tatoos. Gotta get the ladies in :D Then again I can just pay them :p
 
I'm going to make my shooting skill really good. Desert Eagle :sly:

I really hope I get the uncut version too, I think I will though, all they're doing is getting the UK game and shipping it here.
 
I have known you guys didn't get prostitutes for a while, but did you have any other way of getting your health upto 125 (pre pizza boy missions)?
 
Nope.

But New Zealand have to approve it via whatever their Ratings people are.

Apparantly it will be VERY hard to control the Desert Eagle at first. I'm still goin' for it though, too!

I don't see how, it's being sent out, not being sold if you know what I mean. Plus it already has an R18+ rating.
