Sucks that its probably not real...I don't think that site is linked to from the rockstar sites, and it would be announced everywhere if it was true, I would think.

So The Warriors was on Gameboy Color? It's an all encompasing legal page, and since The Warriors was not created by rockstar, they need that to cover thier butts

That's okay, I'll give you the next few hours to work it out, write all your thoughts down on a piece of paper, and then you can forgive me later.

With their legal problems, I can't imagine they would only release it on the ps3, unless sony gives them a ton of cash.

As previously noted...I dont give a shit either way. But i'll err on the side of truth until proven otherwise.

...and actually, found some more info out there about it taking place in 1930's Chicago (note the lettering for Chicago on that page)

Chicago GTA is fake, but the legal page is real. Rockstar worked on The Warriors game last year... Wtf are you talking about.

Someone already debunked this on gamefaqs:

How odd that known GTA websites are registered through Network Solutions and list Rockstar New York as the website owner.

This "GTA Chicago" website hides behind a proxy service.

excluding that it's from gamefaqs, the fact that it is registered totally differently and by proxy than every other Rockstar site leads one to believe it is not originating from Rockstar and Take 2.
