Actually, I've been kicking that idea around in my head for a while now! I'll still let you have credit for the idea thoughMcLaren F1GTR
I'm waiting for the game to come out and see what is offered in the way of street racing first though. That, and it will probably take me close to a month to complete the game!

Yeah its been kinda a catch 22 for me, kinda regret learning what i know about the game, but in other ways im glad i know what i know. It means ill be able to plan my way through the game, to experience enough things so that i can start up some San Andreas disccusion threads fairly soon after release.Event HorizonI've thought about it, and now I'm glad that I haven't read through this entire thread. Some people (Matt, Blake) Who have looked at everything there is to know about the game won't see many suprises. I, on the other hand, will be playing a totally neew game. I have no idea about the story line, so I will have more fun the first time around that Matt, Blake, R32GTSM/T, or other frequenters of this thread.
Ill still be pacing my way through, wouldnt wanna rush it.

It's not going to ruin my game at all. I will be playing San Andreas until the next GTA, you watch. I only just stopped playing Vice City, and that's because my PS2 is screwed. And I knew every detail of Vice City before I played it. Plus, I'm pretty much GTA-obsessed, so I don't think I will get bored of this game for a very long time.

Same here. But i can see were these people are comming from when i first played Vice i knew nothing about the game, i didnt even know it was comming out untill i went to my mates place and he was playing it. But it was really good because when i first unlocked the helicopter or saw that you could ride the bikes i was like OMFG!, and those surprises were good but that o.k i guarantee theres heaps of new stuff in SA we don't know **** about. I seem to be using that word alot today he he!Jimmy Enslashay

Well, I know where they are coming from, too. I kept up with Vice City news and found the game ultra-enjoyable. I didn't know anything about GTA 3 and I found that game ultra-enjoyable. I knew most of the stuff about GTA 2 and I found that game ultra-enjoyable.
You see, the thing with me and GTA is, I don't play the game how alot of other people do. All they do is go around killing people, finish the game a few times, use the new features a couple of times, and that's it. I build my own storyline with Blake. Simulate real life sort of stuff, and enjoy the game more that way.
That's why I don't get sick of the games, and that's why I know I won't get sick of San Andreas. GTA can NEVER be spoiled for me.

Yeah. Really well done, yeti. Better than what I do. But that's because I only have 56K, and it would take me too long.
If only you could extract those videos now off the site...
Outstanding job, yeti.

BTW guys... There's a huge community of GTA lovers over at http://forum.codenamenetwork.com ... I'm a moderator over there and keep the place in shape (And have also just robbed my LV update from here for there!) so feel free to come over anytime...
I came here for the GT4 forums really... but after the news that it's delayed til next year I've gone off the boil in that direction... and my attention has swung back to GTA more wholesale... especially now that it's almost out!!

Well, there are huge communities everywhere. I think I signed up to Codename ages ago, but never bothered to post. I was a member of NeoSeeker GTA Forum, too, but that was a very noob forum. I'm 100% GTP now, I don't know why. I love this forum. It's more of a close bunch of people, and less idiots, seeing that it's not a GTA specific Forum.
We need a proper Moderator here, I've said it all along.
By the way, if you want to reply to this message, Quote it and post it in the Off Topic thread.

Nicely done yeti.Thinking about all of the info that has been released so far and looking at the map you kind of realize the true scope of this game.It's massive.Most of you like to be involved in gangs and go around taking on other gangs but me,i'll probably get out of Orange Groove as soon as possible and find a way to get rich,be driven in limo's all the time and stay in the most expensive hotels.I kind of like to live large.And then there's the occasional rampage.I hope that there are some really huge mansions that can be bought with immense garages,places to store your own heli's and planes and of course a small dock to store your boats.
I'm kind of looking forward to doing all of that.I'm also probably going to avoid this section of the forum untill i get the game(3 days after the US).People will no doubt start posting all kinds of stuff that i would rather find out by myslef.
Peace out.

I got them all in zips and you can download them here. Each download is about 20 MB. You either need Macromedia Flash Player 7 or the latest Window Media Player to view. Enjoy.Jimmy Enslashay
