Gta San Andreas

​

I don't see how on God's green earth you could say that there is no chance that Half Life 2 or Halo 2 will be better than GTA. Is it just me or is Halo higher than GTA 3 in the rankings on gamerankings.com with VC not being on the list at all (outside the double pack, pack in halo with halo 2 and lets see how high that would be on the list). The fact that you won't even admit that halo 2 and half life 2 could be better than GTA : SA (and in my opinion will be) shows how much your opinion about games counts.

And like hell I'm one of those "fuck the mainstream" guys. I play a game if it's good and that's that. I have both GTA 3 and VC. They're good games but did not deserve the success they got. They achieved their success through clever marketing and "word of mouth". Don't even try to say marketing doesn't play a part either. How else would you explain the failure (ish) of the dreamcast?

P.S. My favourite game of all time is Metal Gear Solid ... eat that you mainstream bastards <_<

​

I have no doubt that HL2 will be better than GTA:SA. But it won't sell as well.

Obviously marketing makes a big difference but GTA3 and VC deserved to sell a lot, unlike FIFA, the last MoH game etc.

HL2 Might be better but, I will be playing GTA SA Much more than HL2,

But atleast Rockstar Games sticks to release dates

HL2 was suposed to be out 2 years ago wasnt it ??



ppl that are waiting to download GTA: SA , It is going to be released on DVD9 Discs so if you only have a DVD5 burner, you might have to get a RIPPED version of the game.

Unless its just get Dummy Files to make it DVD9 that can be removed to make it DVD5...

I'll be using HDAdvance, so no problems with DVD9 if I connect my HD to my computer.

Anybody that claims that they don't just go around exploding cars after playing GTA2/3/VC for 10 minutes either is a liar or has patience of steel.

​

Quit trolling for fuck's sake. That's a ridiculous assertion, disproved by people's comments here, game reviews by both professional journalists and ordinary gamers on hundreds of websites, and the abundance of strategy guides, FAQs and discussion surrounding the game ... and you know it.

haha shut the fuck up. do you honestly think i care what a bunch of gimps on game rankings think about gta? how about this: the fact that you wont admit that gta sa could be better than halo 2 and half life 2 shows how much your opinion about games count. i really enjoyed halo, but no way did i enjoy it or play it as much as gta 3 or vice city.

 

[mattmagoo]

if you's looked at what you can do in GTA:SA and it's size then you would understand why people are waiting for this.

​

YES, exactly

wander round thousands of miles of land trying to get to the next frigging meetup which will give u a mission exactly like the last


Oooh, your character can get fat and have tatoos, have you never played a wrestling game

I am not Anti-GTA (3D) but I think games like Zelda, Soul Caliber, Power Stone and JSR beat it any day for playability (not necessarily longetivity, but if you play a game like GTA to completion you play games too much, I'd much prefer a short and sweet game like Zelda WW then trade it in for the next game which will be out sooner coz they arent so long)

​

HAHA what the fuck? so you completed all 4 of those games then claim that someone who completes gta vc plays games too much?

 

[mattmagoo]

JSR = shortest game on the plantet ever

Soul Calibur = oh yeah so much to do in that SC1 not 2

Power Stone = ITS A FRIGGIN ARCADE GAME

Zelda WW = I bought it when it was released (a year and a half ago) and only jus completed it (its only a 20 hour game)

so yeah i stand by what i said

bringoutthegimp you really are losing this argument badly. When did I ever say GTA : SA has no chance of being better than Halo 2 or Half Life 2. Hell my PC isn't even good enough to play Half Life 2 so you can see how much I care about that.

I have to say that I wholeheartedly agree with Mattmagoo. He basically described exactly what I didn't like about the 3d GTA games. If GTA:SA sorts this out then good for it, I'll play it. Unfortunately it just looks like more of the same.

My point about gamerankings still stands. You say there is no chance that Halo 2 or Half Life 2 could possibly be better than GTA:SA when the original Halo is better than both GTA 3 and VC (individually, the DP doesn't count). Look at how much improved Halo 2 looks over Halo then look at how much GTA : SA looks improved over GTA 3 or VC.

See what I'm getting at?

 

[bringoutthegimp]

See what I'm getting at?

​

no.

i just said that i liked gta vc better than halo. its a matter of opinion, theres no point in arguing because i know im right

 

[davey g]

And where did I say you were wrong about that? You seem to be missing the whole part of the argument. You said that there is no way that Halo 2 or Half Life 2 will be better than GTA : SA. That is not true and that is what I have been arguing.

Now do you see what I'm getting at?

I preferred GTA:VC to Halo, Halo 2 looks like more of the same to me. So you can knock people off ghosts, ooh big change. HL2 will piss all over it anyway.

 

[davey g]

thebluenewt you're just trying to start a flame war there so I'll just ignore it.

bringoutthegimp I'm not saying it won't be true, I'm saying you don't know it will!

 

[Steve-O]

I own Halo and have played Halo for a total time of 1 hour max

I own GTA:VC and have played GTA:VC for Definatly well over 200 hours (Thats just the PS2 Version) I also own the PC Version which I have played for over 100 hours



Number one game for me this year is defiantly gonna be GTA: San Andreas

 

[thebluenewt]

thebluenewt you're just trying to start a flame war their so I'll just ignore it.

bringoutthegimp I'm not saying it won't be true, I'm saying you don't know it will!

​

I'm not saying anything you didn't.

You said GTA:SA looks the same as the previous games. I said Halo 2 looks the same as Halo. Flame war indeed, pfft.

Re-read your post.

​

it's funny coz your dissproving yourself

Re-read your post.

Nope, you've lost me!

 

[davey g]

Read the posts I've made where I have criticised GTA right. Then read yours. Especially the "HL-2 will piss all over it" (paraphrased). It may not be intentionally a flamebait but hell, if someone who really liked Halo or Halo 2 saw that I think this thread would die even quicker than it already is.
