Anyone have a suggestion of which system I should use to play San Andreas? Thinking about picking up the game but I don't know if I should get it for the Xbox, PC, or PS2.

Just watched it. Although the graphics looked excellent, the trailer was pants.

Looks good to me. By the time this hits, I'm not going to be able to resist buying a new console any longer. I usually wait until consoles hit the $150 price range, but I don't think I can hold out on this one. I needs me my GTA.

Ya I'm really hoping to see online play. I hope they included it, and show it in the trailer if so.

Dont hold your breath, they have promised it in the last 3 GTA releases as well.

Im just happy to see they finally updated the 5 year old engine.

I was getting tired of felling like im playing an atari 2600.

I *LOVE* GTA, but rockstar has sat on their hands a lot with the last couple releases.

it is still Liberty City. they just modeled all the NYC landmarks into it.

they always said Liberty City is NYC though, I guess they just don't want the real name in there. Otherwise they'd have another GRAW2 on their hands. (Mexico government wants to ban GRAW2)

Maybe fighting against Tommy from GTA3, as part of the Russian mafia?
