Is GTA maxed out???

i mean, san andreas was more than enough space, and i cant see game environments getting much larger.

san andreas had 3 enormous cities, a massive desert, and green rolling hills with smaller towns inside them....i think that gta4 wont particularly expand the environment, but the depth of the game....like branching storylines like mass effect, or different jobs; cop, bookie, etc...

what do you all think??  is the size of the city going to grow drastically, or is the game going to evolve in other ways? 

I think if it were bigger than Vice City, but smaller than SA, that would be fine.hummer700

I think idea of size will be smaller (meaning it is one city instead of 3 cities and rural area like GTA san andreas)

but due to detail of the city, the actual size in terms of distance will be bigger.

That's what I think. I'm not saying that is how it will be.

san andreas was too big. They should make a smaller, more intimate setting like the other games had. Or at least, they shouldn't have 3 separate cities, and if they have wilderness it can be on the edges of the map. The best thing they could do is really flesh out the AI in police, gangs, and pedestrians, as well as more detail in the settings. Put the focus on quality, not quantity.GunSmith1_basic

I'd rather have a smaller city filled with soul, rather than a big city filled with nothing.Drukter

Me too. I'd much prefer more detail than more scope.

in SA there was only the beginning loading times and when u went to buildings or got CS. 360's DVD drive read faster than bluray and it has more access to more ram. so if there is a diff it will mean 360 will load more faster.  Chances are tho each version will have the option to install protions of the game onto the HDD so i dont think any which way loading time will be a big deal.  They did such a great job with that stuff on SA so im sure it will be just as good if not better on 360 and ps3.
