Rockstar statement:

"Hey guys, due to unforeseen technical issues, the Android release of Vice City will be slightly delayed. Our goal is to get this out for Android by the end of next week. Our apologies for the delay to all our fans on Android devices and please stay tuned for updates."

Kinda disappointed here. Bit of a farce for android. It was put up on the main google play page and people could start to download and pay but when they did they found it broken. Rockstar then took it down and said it wasn't meant to be up quite yet and it'll be up later in the day.

Now they say nope, next week...sometime...probably.... maybe... for android.

If it wasn't an insult enough that it costs more on android now we have this.

Was Vice City the only one where you could shoot the fuel tank of a car? I miss that.

Skate-AK4149d ago

I think that was actually San Andreas.

Cablephish4149d ago

Yep, it was San Andreas.

Takes skill to shoot the tank on a moving car though :P

IRetrouk4148d ago

vice city had it first also shooting peps through car windows and shooting out the tyres

Genuine-User4149d ago

Why can't they release this on the PS Vita?!

metsgaming4149d ago

easily just make it a ps mobile game. Rockstar just doesnt care anymore it seems, only looking the make the most money with least effort.

Genuine-User4149d ago

Exactly. People would pay good money for this game on the Vita. Seems like Rockstar just want to cater for a bigger audience. More money obviously.

Awesome_Gamer4148d ago

GTA V says "hi".

It's the only sequel this gen that looks miles better than the previous game.

Unztayble4149d ago

I have to buy this legit next week then. I don't like gaming on my phone but I will support R* for their efforts. It's only gonna be like 7 bucks anyway probably.

Strike974149d ago

Ooooo shit I wait for 27 days and now there is no game

When it come back on Google play ???

Ex-Rockstar Dev Finally Explains Why Small Planes Randomly Crashed in GTA San Andreas

Former Rockstar Games Technical Director Obbe Vermeij has finally revealed why some planes would randomly crash in GTA: San Andreas.

Profchaos10d ago

This fly by feature was on the cutting room floor due to the random plane crashes and it's one of those things I'm so thankful made it into the final version as these random fly by and crashes make the world seem more alive on the extremely limited PS2 hardware you needed everything you could possibly get in a open world to convey that feeling.

And accross hundreds of hours of gameplay I probably died around 3 times as a result of these fly by failures but I loved every time it happened

isarai10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

It made the world feel more human, and honestly kinda insane that even today with all these open world games, almost no one can capture that like R* even when compared to their ps2 games

Skuletor9d ago

Lol, I remember those. I vaguely remember dying from one crashing into my car once too.

I had the LaserActive... it was a nice collectors piece but not very practical. Especially when it came to needing recapping. I think i paid all of about $50 for the floor model from an incredible Universe back in the day. I ended up selling it many years later for $300 at the time due to it needing a new laser and the aforementioned recapping.

An honorable mention not on the list would be the VM Labs Nuon. It basically looked like any regular DVD player but it had ports on it for controllers to play specific games. one of which is still exclusive to it with Tempest 3000. It also offered nuon enhanced DVD movies with extra content not accessible by regular players.

Wasn't there some KFC console, or am I mistaken?

CoNn3rB11d ago

It was announced but it never actually came out as far as I know
