Expected to feature a look into Chinese and Mexican gang life around San Andreas.

I think their info is a little bit off.

I can't wait till it comes out on PC. Playing it on the PC is much better if you ask me.

I just read the reviews. Damn...this game sounds good! I hate to wait long to play it.

Then again, I do have a huge backlog of games I have yet to play so it may be a blessing in disguise.

I heard the earliest possible release is not till next fall...

but yet agian, this is all speculation. Rockstar hasn't said anything about it coming to xbox even.

As I recall, the period of exclusivity Sony got was six months. So it could be perfect for a E3 'surprise.'

That's because they want to sell a bunch of PS2 copies. A lot of gamers own a PS2 and Xbox and the Xbox version will be better. So if I had both systems and they told me Xbox is out in March I would wait.... Rockstar doesn't want people to wait.

Six months means it could be on the shelf on April 26th. I guess it depends on the sales numbers. Since Rockstar is making big bucks off that game.

There isn't even a grand theft auto 4! Geez. GTA3, GTA:Vice City and GTA:San Andreas are a trilogy. GTA4 is rumored to be for PS3.

Well, the title is a bit deceiving. We're just discussing when GTA:SA will come to Xbox.

I really dont like the gta series. I think that games where the only point of it is stealing things, killing people etc. are just too cheap for me. I like games that have a point, are not repetitive, and does not use violence as its main draw. does this game even have a good story? I dont know about you people but I dont just buy games so that I can kill people in it, that is just sadistic.

I do like some violent games like splinter cell and hitman but you really dont have to kill people if you are smart.

I am sure all of you are just caught up in the GTA hype and so are the reviewers. Now of course this game will be coming to the xbox but I will not be getting it no matter what.

The other PC versions came out near the end of May. I would wait though if you do want to get the PC version. I got VC for 10 last year on Black Friday.

Where do you see this at all? Last I saw, Rockstar didn't make any comment either way about an Xbox version of GTA:SA coming out at all. PC version can be expected between May and July. Either way, I'll probably get the PS2 version when it goes GH.

yeah I;m sure the xbox version will eventually be out, and by the time it comes out it should be put out at a discount price like the other GTA games did.

Yeah, I'm waiting for Xbox. The Xbox Double Pack had me spoiled with the better graphics and custom soundtracks.

I saw the commercial for GTA:SA a few days ago, and it looked crappy. They showed closeups of characters, and they were all boxy and jaggy. Almost looked like the old sports games where athletes were so box-shaped they looked like fridges with uniforms on.

I think I read in OXM a couple months ago that it should be ported to the Box in March 2005.

Although I disagree with him, it's his opinion and you don't need to start shit over it.

If I had a PS2, I'd already own this game. But since I don't I'm forced to wait patiently for an Xbox release :(

I definitely would have gotten in on one of the $35 or $30 AR deals I've seen on the main forum. This is probably the one game I would buy for close to the full $50. (I'm not planning to do that even with Halo 2.) Maybe Jade Empire next year as well, if it ends up realizing the hype.

I can't imagine this game won't be making it to Xbox at some point given how well the GTA: Double Pack did. Has there been no official word from Rockstar, yet? I guess it would make sense for them to stay mum on the subject and the give the PS2 exclusive its time in the spotlight.

It would be really appropriate if they released this game on April 29th...

EDIT: I believe GTA SA and VC are exempt from numbers because Rockstar is planning something for a game titled GTA 4, I could be wrong though.

Its not GTA 5.....Its just GTA: San Andreas.....
If you were to class it in a number form it would probably be GTA3 : San Andreas.
