Damn it, and I just bought an Xbox 360 to play GTA 4.

And it's not nearly as good as San Andreas. Oh well.

San andreas sucked compared to GTA4. I'm going to most likely get it again for the Pc just to play with my mates that don't have it on Xbox.

hopefully there will be mods to increase replay time and add to the view distance.

and my GOD Rockstar, make sure you make ALL the textures high-res. that's the most important part of a good PC game port: use that PC memory!

Playing GTA:SA was initially amazing. GTA IV is amazing too, maybe not to the level of awesome some people were expecting, but going back to play GTA:SA - SA feels flat, almost two dimensional by comparison. As long it looks good at 1920x1200, I'll be happy.

GTA 4 was poor, graphics where far from special, and handeling was like trying to drive a drowned dog. It should have been London in my opinion. I don't think i will get this on PC, not unless Rockstar can pull something off pretty special.

GTA:SA was the closest thing (atleast in free-roam) to virtual civilisation reality since ever, now let's just hope the introduction to PC of this uber game/simulator will make it just as good, or as intended, better.
