Hell yeah it's great!Say,anybody got a clue why Medieval fonts?

Maybe its set in medieval time... with horses lol
Seriously, i wish it wont be a game that is set in the past...
lets think logically:
Cursive font = Vice City = 80's
medieval font = San Andreas = ??
what can it be?
In my opinion, it relates to the rap/gang culture of the western united states among African Americans and reminds me of the gold jewellery that you sometimes see people like 50-Cent wearing.
yeah, same for me.
It's very good chosen though, I thought it was more going to be a Vice City-like cover.
That boxcover is most likely pending.

ohh now I remember, the Diablos leader (El Burro or w/e from GTA3) Had a tattoo that said DIABLOS on his stomach with a medieval font, so i think Neil's right.
@jpfreak: it said in the news that its comming out exclusively for the Playstation 2 so i guess no PC news. :(
Vice City was "exclusive to PS2" and look what happened to that :-p
I'm pretty sure we'll see a PC version in 2005, probably about May. However, I personally see it as unlikely that an Xbox version of this game will ever be released, as Sony will really want to keep this game exclusive.

They'll more than likely make a PC version for this. They made it for GTA3 and GTAVC, I don't see why they wouldn't for this game, especially since the sales will go through the roof!

The GTA PC releases always end up being on my birthday, so it's all good.

OMG!!!!! Finaly!!!!!! It looks like it will be based on modern gangs by the looks of the box art.

I'm with Stealth. Another PC user here. Guess I'll just have to live vicariously through all you PS2 users for a while!:rude:

Yup. Thats too bad for you guys. HARHARHARHAR! Too bad they take so long for the PC versions to come out. I like playing the PS2 versions better but still the PC versions are fun too.

Ofcourse, PS2 is my all time favourite.

damn, i don't have a PS2, but im pretty sure GTA:SA will come out on both XBOX and PC, besides i don't think it's up to SONY to keep this game exclusive, it's up to R*, they don't care who they sell their games to, as long as they make money....
also on another note, I hope this time they have Mexican gangsters and black gangsters, mexican is the ethnicity im closest to (im hispanic), so that would be tight. Also it's all about the mexican and them black where I live. And i also hope the game takes place in today's world, not the 80's!:peace:
or Italian ones.
I think the Xblock would have to wait, because Rockstar said it was Exclusive for PS2. I think the Xbox might have the same release date for the PC, or even longer.
Maybe there will be another double pack. Vice City + San Andreas.

03-02-2004, 05:58 AM
Yeah, probably the XBOX will be the last console to get this game, hey how bout GTA:TRIPLE PACK!?!?!
HEHE

I also can't wait 2 see the 1s screenshot in my inbox or a commercial!VC commercial turned me on like hell.And the box art looks too...empty,do you think it's gonna look sth like vc/gta3 ones w/lil screenshots?

I have a feeling they'll still go with that comical box with the squares in it like GTA3 and Vice City.
Darkon_X
03-02-2004, 07:17 AM
I dunno wut you're talking about...:confused:
DOLLARD
03-02-2004, 07:38 AM
Have you ever even bought a gta game?On every box there are squares w/ screens.
Darkon_X
03-02-2004, 07:54 AM
you mean screenshots?
Ramboyf5
03-02-2004, 08:58 AM
Yeah, that's what I mean. I'm sorry, I couldn't explain correctly.
And yes of course I've bought a GTA game(3 and VC)or I wouldn't even be here.

I hope it comes out on PC cos i have a ps2 aswel but its alot easier to mod it on a pc lol i think it should come out on pc 1st, cos it used 2 b a pc classic game, even tho they say it wont

03-02-2004, 10:38 AM
Yeah i have a PS2 and will get it on that format on October the 19th, but can't wait for it to come out on the PC because the graffics are better and like you say Mouldy Punk you will be able to mod it. :)

Well, I don't have a PS2 or an XBox, so I'm also looking forward to the PC release.
Gah. It still slightly annoys me that Rockstar went down that road, but... meh. Anything for money, I suppose.

Wow,so much discussion over one sign and then quiet...I suppose now we have to wait for quite some time untill we get the next news,but untill then...wishlist.
Hmmn. Well, I'm quite happy with this bit of info after such a dry spell, and I am beginning to see a pattern with the hype building by comparsion to Vice City. However, the hype started much later in the game for VC. Well, with any more info coming in any day now, its going to be a great summer! :D

ehm.. as for stealh, and the others... as i did with Vice City, i bought the PS2 version the very day it was realeased, and then later on bought the PC version, cause of the mods, and online stuff.. :D :evil:

Man if ya don't have a PS2 or an XBOX, then you're fucked

yeah the scripture on the cover is most likely based on the big trend in the late 90's where everyone and there mother got a tat with that kind of lettering because the culture picked up quickly. so i'd assume (cuz only asses assume) that it's based mid to late 90's.
Ramboyf5
03-03-2004, 10:54 AM
What bout' 70"s?
San Andreas-70's
Vice City-80's
Liberty City-90's
Maybe they might follow a unique way of what year SA will be set in. I see a pattern!?!
DOLLARD
03-03-2004, 04:39 PM
Why would they hev a modern day gang letters on cover if the game is set in 70's then?
DOLLARD
03-03-2004, 04:41 PM
Vice City-neon lights-80's,San Andreas-modern grafitti-2000's
Darkon_X
03-03-2004, 04:43 PM
fuck no, I want SA to take place in the present day, not the past, not the future, now!
as for the Old English font, that's a gangsta' font, i don't think the font has anything to do with the game
DOLLARD
03-03-2004, 04:47 PM
In VC example it does so...and modern-present all that means now man.
cyrix
03-05-2004, 12:13 AM
yeah....that's the same line i was thinking along. vice's text on the front was related so why not this?
