GTA 3 and Vice City

IGN has posted that Xbox and PS2 will be bundling GTA 3 and VC in november. I had heard that both games will be making thier way to Xbox and Gamecube, is this still so? and if so whats the releas date???

Rockstar has so far made no statement regarding the release of the GTA 3 series on the cube. The console packages will be for xbox and ps2 only at this time.

The same question was asked in the ign's latest cube mailbag.

Hm perhaps both games don't fit on 1 GC disc. I mean, I'm SURE they don't with all the voices and music files... But that could be a reason they don't port it.

and the fact that it's button layout on the Cube would be akward.. but no need to argue about it again... it may happen.

Maybe they just don't think anyone will buy it.

Yeah, probably the real reason. Most companies don't take a chance. Hell, Rockstar can't lose much if any money by just straight porting it. They've made more then enough money off of GTA3/VC on PS2.

No, space wouldn't allow it. They have next to nothing in production costs, and the had all the money from PS2 sales already... fanbase has nothing to do with it.

I'm sure both GTA3 and VC would be too big for one 1.5g GCN disc too.. probably three, even.
