Well Vice City was bright and happy because down in florida its bright and happy

and Liberty City was based on New York so yea it'll be very rainy and dark just like New York with all the tall building etc... I mean be realistic, they are making the game to fit the place there at, like I said VC was a recreation od Miami, bright sunny lots of colors and great place to be, LC based off of NY, dark, grimmy, dirty, tall buildings, lots of grays... so for Cali it will proably be a mix of both, lots of sun and bright colors some places, not to bright in the more "ghetto" areas....
Well during that time the "west coast gangsta style" was big so makes sense to do this, but hopefully (not being racist) its not all black people, maybe it'll be a mix of black, mexican, asian, just something along the lines of GTA3 but not so many white people

anyways i'm likeing it so far witht he little info they gave us and well I think its going to be a great game overall...
Just think, GTA3 had some gangs of diffrent nationalities, and the mafia...... GTA VC, had some mafia, a few gangs, poloticians etc... so maybe now in GTA SA, they'll have lots of gangs (black, asian, mexican etcc), corupted cops.. so deff theres a little difference between each game...
