It definitely appears to be Luis skydiving - could this be a new feature included in the upcoming DLC? Hopefully the trailer will clear it up! As always we'll be updating you the moment the trailer is released, so stay tuned on Tuesday.

Wow, this looks really exciting I can't wait to see the trailer although Sky diving wasnt exactly on the list of things I wanted from TBOGT it will be great to see someone sky diving over liberty.

lets hope it's a little better than SA.
i hope it has the ragdoll physics, and you get a higher limit to reach.

prob gonna be part of a mission
maybe you'll also be able to bring a parachute up in a helicopter or plane(if they add some) so you can bail midair and parachute down.
while like Jaytow, it wasn't a feature that I was hoping for it could add some fun (jumping off the tall buildings and what not)

I'm hoping that they'll add a few more enjoyable activities like the rumored fight club.

Yeah, something like the Saints Row 2 activity, except improved a bit more. That was one of my favorite activities. If skydiving might be part of this DLC, I wonder what other things they could include.

Can't wait to see the trailer, too. Pretty excited for this.

Rockstar Games are putting back the stuff they took out from past Grand Theft Autos.

They never took stuff out of GTA IV, GTA IV was a new engine so the game was done from scratch, a better sentence would be "They are putting features in the game that were in previous GTA Games".

all i can say is it better not be part of a minigame It should be like the parachute in SA

I've come across an interesting picture (http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w50/nwa05/Phot o-0024.jpg). I can't tell if the game on that monitor is GTA. Is that a horse in GTA? PETA are going to be mad.

Edit: Ah nevermind, just remembered about Red Dead Redemption.

It looks like the GTA hud. But there quite a few games with the same HUD/Map element design. Not to mention it could be shoped on there. Or the game you mentioned

[Tyler]

it's RDR. the player is riding a wagon while a NPC is there on the side of the road on his horse.
