I wonder how far out the camera pulls? Biggest issue with the old GTAs these days is not being able to see far enough in the distance to drive properly at speed.

I have had GTA since 1998. Tea stains and all. Only one I didn't 'complete' (2D ones were arcadey with less story) was London 1961, becuase it was on the PC. GTA2 was great and GTAIII was better. Downhill from there. GTAIV was seriously toned and constrictive. Something the GTA series is famous for doing the opposite of. You aren’t one of the biggest GTA fans if you haven’t played them all.

I'm one of the biggest GTA fans around, I've played and completed every GTA game, every 3D GTA at 100%, except San Andreas (97.something%). IV was fantastic. It wasn't a step back at all, but it was a slightly different type of game. Which is probably good, given the amount of people that complained about GTA becoming stale. Huh?

This game was truely a step back. But I still commend Rockstar for not just sticking to the same formula. You’d only say that if you hadn’t played the others.

It did have a very understated stylised direction. And GTAIV despite being a boiling cow pat (sorry pat) also had an excellent art direction, with the whole saturated shadows thing.

If they did the whole game like those then it wouldn't really break with the style. And you have to play to a platform's strengths - you might have noticed that pretty much all 3D games on the DS look like arse. Well, the 2D images in GTA3 et al were almost cel-shaded to begin with.

I would have expected them atleast keep the same names (not Chinatown) and perhaps stayed with the GTAIII style. But Cel shaded sounds like this is goign to be GTA Advanced.

NMH no less. I know it's sandbox light but I can see the appeal in the genre. What I wanted to say is that this sounds interesting. Especially the bit about short burst game play.
