I'm surprised it still says Ving is voicing Vic, we've all seen the trailer and know that its not Ving,
here almost all the new info on Empire Building.
Load times between islands are short, even when in the air.
• The Empire Building mode involves attacking properties owned by other gangs. To initiate the attack, you need to destroy a gang car parked outside. Once done, gang members will try and attack you. Once you've killed them, you need to head inside the property (which will have its own interior). When you're inside you need to kill all the enemies and wreck the place so that the business cannot operate any more. After that, the building will go up for sale, which will allow you to buy it.
• You don't have to make it the same type of business it was before, you can make it your own. Choose from six different types that include prostitution, loan sharking, protection rackets, drugs, smuggling and robbery.
• As revealed before, this mode is three-tiered. Select to start up either a small, medium, or high roller business. The small costs $2, 000, medium $3, 900 and the high roller $5, 800.
• Once you've chosen the level and type of business, construction will begin. Actual hoarding will go up around the site while the building is being build. The time it takes for completion is around two in-game days.
• Once done, you can enter your new building that will have gang members working for you, a notice board to make changes to the business, and a save point.
• The business will then make money, but if you want to make serious cash you'll need take on the missions that are provided to you from inside the building. These are of course varied, and an example Go>Play saw was when they had set up a prostitution business, they took girls to and from clients around the city within a given time limit.
• An appropriate type of vehicle will spawn outside every type of business.
• Gangs members can also attack your business, and as revealed before, you'll be notified of it on your pager. Set up gang members and equip them with weapons to defend your business.
• Only five of each type of business can be run throughout the entire city.

Iv'e been thinking about the Golf Mini-Game. I'm sorry to say this but chances are it will only be the driving range. I read the article and it talks about whacking tha ball and trying to hit an explosive barrel in the water with Gonzales. Then it goes on to say that you can return and do this at any time. I just can't see you playing through courses. Your thoughts?

that's fine by me, i'm not a big fan of golf, its a cool touch, as was Basketball for San Andreas, but i think i will be preocupied with Empire Building, or missions. it's a nice touch but im not buying VCS to pretend to be Tiger Woods.
Some comparisons I made on the screens in the magazine.

At the army base, he must be there for taking mission.

Fences might be gone and a new building is visible inside the airport.
#3.

The boat is passing by the Starfish island; Bushes are much reduced.

Probably a new building at the north-west corner. May be that's one in #2.
#5.

At little Haiti, explosions are much much better than in VC.
