  1. When you move, there is a slight vibration with every footstep when you run
  2. The HUD has been removed- no health or armour indicators, it is all visual- and if you have armour, you actually have a bulletproof vest which visually deteriates
  3. Flamethrower and rocket launcher are still in the game
  4. Explosions are larger than ever, and there is a mission in the game based on creating an awesome chain reaction of car explosions- apparently this looks awesome
  5. Cars dont explode unless you blow them up- ie they wont explode if you just keep crashing or hitting them- you have to rocket launch into them
  6. Niko doesnt get tired- you can run forever, it just wont be as fast as previously.
  7. more RPG elements, ie - for a mission, you must catch the train at 7pm, and if you dont, you dont get to do that particular mission (they just gave this as an example, the scenario isnt confirmed in the game yet)
  8. Gore is back and better, bullet wounds show, blood appears where you shoot people, they limp if you shoot them in the leg, and hold their arm if you shoot their arm. Apparently when you run someone over it is disturbing (but they gave no more detail)No eating, girlfriends, keeping fit- but your skills do improve over time (driving etc)
  9. Secret vehicles and "plenty of goodies" at 100% completion- no more details given (either not revealed or simply not known yet)
  10. Land size is bigger than the 3 cities (not country) in SA put together
  11. graphics are better than Saints Row- draw distance is literally as far as you can see
  12. new trailer will be on the internet 28th of June

Game is really starting to sound great. I"m going to be a poor man come this holiday season.

  1. When you move, there is a slight vibration with every footstep when you run - I like this feature, what about the PS3 though?
  2. The HUD has been removed- no health or armour indicators, it is all visual- and if you have armour, you actually have a bulletproof vest which visually deteriates - This didn't work so well in Getaway, but I do like that you can see a bullet proof vest now and like it even more that it deteriorates.
  3. Flamethrower and rocket launcher are still in the game - Well I would hope so!
  4. Explosions are larger than ever, and there is a mission in the game based on creating an awesome chain reaction of car explosions- apparently this looks awesome - Damn straight it looks awesome!
  5. Cars dont explode unless you blow them up- ie they wont explode if you just keep crashing or hitting them- you have to rocket launch into them - Good feature, should have been in San Andreas
  6. Niko doesnt get tired- you can run forever, it just wont be as fast as previously. - So you can run across all of Liberty City, just not as fast as when you first started? I don't know about this.
  7. more RPG elements, ie - for a mission, you must catch the train at 7pm, and if you dont, you dont get to do that particular mission (they just gave this as an example, the scenario isnt confirmed in the game yet) - Kinda like True Crime then?I liked how failing missions had repercussions. Rockstart just needs to nail this feature down and not screw it up like in Dead Rising.
  8. Gore is back and better, bullet wounds show, blood appears where you shoot people, they limp if you shoot them in the leg, and hold their arm if you shoot their arm. Apparently when you run someone over it is disturbing (but they gave no more detail)No eating, girlfriends, keeping fit- but your skills do improve over time (driving etc) - I heart Rockstar. Even though removing features/content is not a good thing.
  9. Secret vehicles and "plenty of goodies" at 100% completion- no more details given (either not revealed or simply not known yet) - Ugghh, no more hidden statues. I still haven't found all of them from Vice City damnit!
  10. Land size is bigger than the 3 cities (not country) in SA put together - Cows have been owned
  11. graphics are better than Saints Row- draw distance is literally as far as you can see - B-E-A-utifull!
  12. new trailer will be on the internet 28th of June - I'll be here on SW arguing about it. :)kenmid

More news : you can't gain weight or change your body shape like build muscle. Also I don't think you can eat in the game or at least if you eat you won't change your body shape.

Sounds nice, but I don't think no. 1 is possible on the PS3. That with the extra content seals the deal on buying the 360 version.

No eating, girlfriends, keeping fit

Nooooooooo!!!I have officially given up all hope of a "Sims" equivalent "Grand Theft Auto" game. Oh well, it still sounds good though, I guess.

i can see how that will bother some ps3 boys, but me, i only play gta until i get evey place in the map and just free rome, i rarely ever beat the game at %100 and if i wanted the extra stuff after the %100 i would just download a save. not only that but take2 still hasrt confirmed if ps3 gets any or not, it just wont be the same a MS's.

That's cool but it wasn't a dig at "PS3 boys". I own all and want the best version. MS shelling 50 million for extra content has me really intrigued. With that kind of cash incentive, the extra content should be awesome. Also, don't expect PS3 to get anything similiar. Again this is not a dig, I just can't see MS shelling out 50 million for PS3 owners to get a similiar product.

well i didnt mean that you meant it that way iwas just putting in my 2cents. but anyways, i think that sony would have had some deal with them (with their history and all) but if you really look at it sony doesnt go as public with that kind of stuff as much as ms does, so sony might be hiding something. and if not it still wont bother me.

I'll wait on the review. After San Andreas I was really sick of the GTA format. All the games are the same. All of that detail you say seems really, really good, good enough to make me reconsider the franchise, but I'll need more than some juicy tidbits to sway me. Still, if they nail the living city and realism aspects the game might be worth it on the merits of sandbox fun alone.

Just tired of hearing all that bs about how the 360 is bringing down GTA.

I have also been following 2 Days for a long time, and we don't really know that much about it. Saying a game is better looking then another is a good thing, especially when people were comparing the two titles to each other.

i still think GTA should look better but thats just me, as in more realistic like 2 days maybe trying to do graphically, gameplaywise gta sounds great though

serioulsy there's no real point in buying the ps3 versiion as things are right now. Sony screwed themselves by not sucking it up and doing a deal with immersion ages ago, and they were too slow to secure a deal with rockstar. Maybe i'm being presumptious about the latter thing. Who knows what could happen at E3

I like how you can run forever. I understand it's unrealistic, but it didn't add to the game at all. It wasn't fun.

So you're all for less immersion in gameplay as long as you save some batteries?

I personally dont care about the controller rumbling when I take a step in GTA. It just seems a bit useless to me.

im buying this game for the poster to complete my wall the ps3 version that is i have a 360 but. i dont care about dlc for this game because once i beat it i just beat people to death and shoot stuff i never really worried about getting 100% thats for tight wads. anyway i seen that limping thing before in the getaway and the running rumble thing i dont really care about.
