Meh, I dont really care about them coming to xbox. Vice City was a VERY big disappointment to me and I dont think anyone that have them on the PS2 would want to buy them again.

All I care about is that GTA will use the xboxs' capabilities to take GTA to where it couldnt go on the PS2 in future installments of the series.

Besides True Crime seems much better IMO.

Well, even IF I had an xbox, I would still get it on PC.

Actually many do buy them again. I have it on PS2 and even i have considered buying it for PC. thing is amazing on PC. new downloads just keep pouring in. new cars, new maps, even mods for it. theres one that tries to recreate new york and lets you drive around there.


As for them taking xbox capabilities. i doubt it. Vice city is prolly it for this console gen, and even next they might decide to do it on PS3 before other consoles.

X-Box dont need any GTA games they should just stay with PS2 and PC

I hope they give GTA3 some of the gameplay tweaks of GTA:VC... like the better aiming, and the ability to jump out of a car. Also I would like to see custom soundtracks on the Xbox version.

If updates like these are made I will buy it again, if not, well, um, R.I.P. the days of me and GTA

Well I for one will not be getting this one have it for the PC and thought it was a big bag of over hyped S***.

If all it is is a straight port with no major enhancements, then its not worth buying again. But if they actually take advantage of the XBox and make GTA3/VC look good, then it might be worth a buy.

For all the stuff that's in the game, and the huge city and all, I don't think VC looks all that bad... Do you expect them to have MGS2 graphics in a game with much larger areas, many more characters on screen, etc etc?

Oh yeh GTA Vice City

Started playing it thinking "whoa mad" then slowly got bored as I delved further into the game. Then eventually stopped playing it.

Sounds like my story with a lot of games... like Wind Waker and Mario Sunshine

(I'm not taking a shot at Nintendo, those are just the best two examples for me... alongside GTA:VC)

I don't expect MGS2 graphics, but with what I saw, I don't see why Rockstar didn't take the time to make things look better. I doubt that game filled up a whole DVD, so maybe the extra space could've been used to up the graphics some. But oh well, its too late for them to do anything with the gfx's.

Well, I've never played either of these games so I'm actually kind of excited.

GTA3 was ugly as hell... VC looks good when the trails were taken off... maybe they will clean up GTA3 a bit to look like VC, well, hopfully they will.

Acebot44 09-04-2003 08:08 PM

Here are some xbox screens:







Should look good on 720p...

And the ****ty box art:

It's looking nice, except the backround in the third screen... but the draw distance seems to be farther, so it's all good.

The Xbox versions of GTAIII and VC should be good -- better visuals than even the PC version, custom soundtracks and the bundle is going to be cheap.

Sorry, but it doesnt look better then PC. Maybe it would depending on your vid card. but i've seen the PC look MUCH MUCH better. Then put it on a higher res, and yet even better looking.

I guess we shall see when the Xbox versions are released, but both versions for the Xbox should look great if you have the advanced AV cables, a HDTV and running at 720p.
