There were hydraulics in Vice City, but only on one car.

Post by **Morty** » 10 Oct 2004, 17:32

Actually, there were hydraulics in GTA3 as well... The Yardie Lobo

But remember guys, R* said they were copying parts from other games to make SA as good as possible... And since NFSU is a popular game, you had to expect to see a few parts from NFS in GTA...

Cooooooooool, thanks Morty

yeh how could you forget the hydraulics in the gta games?

i dont think i will be doing a wole lot of car customising in Los Santos... i dont like lowriders very much - i'll be spending my time in the garage in San Fierro, hope you can make cars as good as nfs

Skyline_man · Post by **Skyline_man** » 11 Oct 2004, 12:54

well, not as good as NFS i guess.

NEWS!!
Another preview by gamespy, make sure to check it out here

Post by **Morty** » 11 Oct 2004, 22:37

No, probably better than NFSU2...

GTA is easier to mod than NFS, so there are good possibilities that some nice bodykits will show up on some GTA-sites after the game is released. But I think it will be harder to mod SA than VC, so I can't really say for sure...

I'm gonna read the preview when I have browsed the new posts in here

GTASanan has got some great new info today

Multiplayer
Online multiplayer will not be available, but that's not a big surprise, however this is: There will be 2-player

, or as Spong.com puts it: "a dedicated co-operative mode for two players". After saving a girl on a mission, she will become playable, and this means you can be 2 players when doing some of the missions. Also, some two-player minigames will be included in San Andreas.

Gold
GTA:SA has gone gold.

Inside Gamer Online brings the news. And considering the game haven't even hit the stores yet (this is just the pre-ordering), this game will sell good. Not that it was unexpected tho...

German ratings
To those of you who are considering the German version, there are some news on the rating. It will be rated "from 16", which means a bit of censoring. This is:
- No special animation for headshots
- You won't be able to collect money from people that are killed
- You will not be able to hit or kick dead people
- Blood effects stay in the game
- All missions, weapons and vehicles are the same as in the uncensored version
Other countries:
- US - uncut, rated M for Mature
- UK - uncut, rated 18+
- Australia - will be censored, but to what degree is not yet known

Official Strategy Guide
Just a sneak peak in what to find in the official strategy guide, that will hit stores on Oct 29th:
- Detailed mission walkthroughs
- Coverage of the new character abilities
- A picture showroom of all vehicles
- Detailed maps
- Hidden package/rampage/unique stunt jump guides, hidden bonuses and other extras
- The guide will consist of 300 pages (VC had 180)

Dude, when I post the links, it's usually meant that you check them out yourself. I can't steal all their news.

But it means you can play together with a friend.

Anyway, I'm not sure, all I did was quote the news, so I can't say anything for sure.

And that commercial just seemed like a refreshed version of the official trailer... But still nice
