Wow, a glowing article on GTA:SA.
I dont know why I bother reading anything on popular games any longer.
I know half life 2 will get big ol ass kissing reviews, same for halo 2, same for gta:sa. Sure, they MIGHT be good games, still feels dirty tho.

Considering what was said towards the end of the multiplayer thread, I ironically find the impressions more credible.

Wow! In the one minute between the original post and your reply you read the whole thing, enough to form an opinion about its content worthy of a response. Thats very impressive.

The gameplay is almost the same as vice city and GTA 3 so go play them to get your hands on!

Good enough preview, but it doesn't really reveal any new info... GTASA previews suffer from the same disease as Halo 2 and other high calibre upcoming games. Every preview gives you the same info you knew about 2 months ago. Yeah yeah, we know... just release it already.
The impound yard info and vehicle reclaiming is pretty interesting though, but I never put that much thought into the car disappearances since there's been quite a few times where I'd head back towards "my" car in III and catch a thief in the act or even driving away with said car. Hell, they even walked right up to you and grabbed you out the car as well, so I just figured it was the same in SA.

I can't wait to recover a crap load of cars, have them taken to the impound yard, then huck an explosive in there.

Seriously though; this game is going to ruin about a million other games. Will anyone bother buying anything else other than the Super AAA trilogy of Halo 2, Half Life 2 and GTA: SA?

I don't know if I like the sound of that. Just sitting there and doing nothing should not result in gaining a wanted level....
Well, as long as they're going to make your old vehicles disappear, at least they're giving you the chance to recover them at some point. It sounds like there's quite a bit of customization you can do to the cars, and it'll be nice to know that any car that I'm overly attached to can be recovered instead of just vanishing into thin air.
Vlad said:
You misread the quote... he already had two wanted levels hence he is contemplating his next move, but that's not enough to warrant a helicopter presence. The 'copter is there looking for someone else that's why it pans to the group of "homeys" across the street.
*EDIT*
Or... the game is totally realistic and a black man sitting in a car in Cali automatically has a level 2 wanted level...
raYne said:
Ahhhh... that sounds much better. Of course, if a two star rating in SA is anything like it was in 3, you can't really afford to sit still at any point anyway, due to the constant police presence.
EDIT:
Yeah, I was going to lead my other comment off with something like "However realistic it may be,..." but I thought it'd be in poor taste

I do feel that I make a valid contribution and I will (of course) read something before passing any kind of judgement or stating an opinion. To have not read the source material, but to have pretended to, then pass judgement is just, well, I find it incomprehensible and feel that it would only damage the enjoyment and reputation of one of the best Internet gaming communities.

Dood that's what most website do when they have no new information, let's republish all the separate previews seen all over the web, then we'll add our own witty text in it!
Seriously though the only new information I saw was the fact that cars which use to disappear(which I assumed was due to memory constraints), will now actually end up at the impound... I wonder what the actual extent of that is in terms of # of cars, certain impounds, etc... This game potentially has ALOT more to track than previous GTA's....TekunoRobby

Why did I have to pick now to be broke?
Someone needs to explain to me why in the world you would want to invest time and energy customizing your ride in a GTA game?
I mean, I "park" in GTA III and VC by trying to flip the vehicle several times into the spot I want to go (imagine the scene in Ace Ventura II). I can't imagine any vehicle ever lasting longer than 2-3 minutes in my hands. It's my favorite part.
I managed to park tanks in my garage and keep them for a while, but hey, thats a tank.

Well, even if cars are as expendable as they were in previous games, it's still a neat feature. I used to keep a fleet of all the sports cars in my garages in the previous games, and it was pretty cool to be stuck for a ride, walk up to my hideout, and see four shiny new Stingers/Cheetas/Banshees/etc in there. Sure, they always ended up getting wrecked eventually, but it's a way to distinguish vehicles from the sea of available vehicles out there. Most of the time people don't care if they lose their car, simply because they know they can get another one pretty easily. However, if they're in a car that they've spent a good amount of money and time getting customized, they may not be so reckless.
It's also entirely possible that you won't even have to customize your car for any part of the game. You most likely can just ignore that aspect of the game if you feel like it. Personally, I'm more concerned with how they're going to implement the eating aspect. If the game clock runs at the same speed as GTA3, and the main character has to eat at least once a day, that's gonna get pretty irritating pretty fast.
