Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
I put an order in at Play at half five, two minutes after my mate reminded me it was out and that he was downloading it. £25, not too shabby at all.
So there's one.

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
In 10 years time encryption on software will likely be a complete bitch and we'll have to buy everything.
Until that time, i'll save a bit of money.
Plus if i realy enjoy a game/music/useful piece of software i'll go out and buy it (no, seriously).
Unless Microsoft had anything to do with it's production that is.

Well, actually I am quite a hypocrite, I didn't buy a music album for years. I always tell myself that the music industry should die but it's more an excuse then something I fully support.

i disagree. the levels aren't as open-ended as gtaIII/VC, the radio isn't QUITE as funny, and the whole eating malarkey can get irritating, but it's an enormous game in terms of size and length, and still highly playable.

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
So the fact i bought it for the PS2 as part of my bundle when i got the console means im not amongst the 1337 krew who downl0aded 1ll3g4l h4xx0r copies?
I feel so left out.

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
The reason I buy 90% of my PC games is well... the PC gaming industry is lsoing out to consoles... and i mean, I'm more than willing to support these guys who put in so much bloody effort to make some the fantastic games out there- I just hope that money will help them go on to do better things. Anyone here who can program should understand the huge amount of effort put it.

i had to eat maybe 3 times for the whole game.
im not entirely sure how because a mate had to keep him fed properly all the time.
and i didnt lose any of the muscle or body mass. his tummy didnt even growl and make the controller vibrate.
he just didnt need to eat. no clue why.

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
I really like GTA:SA apart from the bit with the girlfriends. Those missions are shit, very shit.
Also why download it from piratebay when there are plenty of other places with better seeder:leecher ratios.

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
thats true, the girlfriend bit is awfully awfully done, but thats probably the only criticism i could make, and you don't have to do that if you don't want to.

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
I know, I shot them (saves time). The taking of territory is cool (I have 100%, im such a god). Also when you 'recruit' people to your gang for you to run round they are awfully shit (running into walls when you go round a corner, getting in the way of shots being fired, etc)

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
I loved GTA:SA
Since I bought it on Thursday and got home at 4pm, I didn't stop playing the game till 1am.
I wonder if the next GTA will have a Chinese/Mexican guy as the lead character?

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
I haven't really got into it, not least because I am shit at controlling the bikes. Having said that I never used to actually do the missions in previous GTA games, just dick around killing people. I will also prefer it when it comes out on PC and I can load my own music in (although Radio X is decent enough for now).

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
I bought GTA:SA and Forza Motorsport for my xBox yesterday.
I think they're both brilliant.
I never, repeat never download games.
I'll download movies, purely because the Odeon in town charges me £6.50 to see a film. I end up buying them on DVD anyway when they come out, regardless of how shit they were
I'll download music, but I buy the CD eventually and I've usually been to see the artist two or three times anyway.
Games though, I never download, as I always get them on console. PC is only used for internet, music, films and Galaxies.
xBox is for games, and that it shall remain.

Been playing it since Saturday morning, love it. The 'map' is immense, scramble-biking round most of it is most entertaining.

San Andreas is cool. Apart from the missions where you have to drive for ages and ages round the massive map.

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
I like the driving bits, though have taken a liking to scramble bikes so that's been pretty much my sole mode of transport for the past few hours.

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
I am sad to see turning the frame limiter off causes problems as usual. Rockstar clearly either don't give a shit or have retards for beta testers.
So far:
- You can't pass the barrel roll driving school test with the frame limiter off, you only ever get 3/4 turned.
- The car hits an invisible wall on the first 4 Dragons Casino mission and gets stuck and the cut scene never ends if the frame limiter is off.
That plus it has crashed to Windows 3 times so far, each time after a cut scene.
At least they have sorted out the load lag when the frame limiter is off. IN GTA3 you could drive in to an area and wait like 20 seconds for the high detail textures to load, it ws fixed with a patch though. They let the same bug happen with VC and never bothered patched it though.
Apart from the technical problems I'm enjoying the game, the map is huge and will take weeks to explore in its entirity which is a good thing, but on the down side it's tedious having to travel 100123012 miles between missions to reach a save point after some missions.

Re: so i guess noone is going to buy GTA san andreas?
i ****in hate ****in model planes !!!! as if the one in vice city wasnt already crappy enough!!!
to shoot them down with a minigun was actually fun (even if pretty easy), but this just sucks. i tried x times, either the stupid plane blows up, or i run out of fuel or its just not controllable anymore. and that ofc only happens before the last delivery guy to kill.

Yeah it took me ages to do that mission for Zero. But i found a good way of going round and killing the couriers ( http://www.gtasanandreas.net/).
Hope this helps
