Sign the petition, get Rockstar to hook up their potential customers with a product they want. I have a PS2, but why waste my money on GTA:SA on an inferior system?

Sign up and be heard

Because consoles suck period. How about we petition you to take your head out of your ass.

Wait for it to come out on the PC, we all know it's way better.

i must disagree. Being that my video card sucks ass, and cant play even VC i would like to see SA ported to the xbox as well.

Yeah yeah consoles suck. Just horrid, the millions of Consoles sold over the past 4 years in the USA prove jsut how aweful they are.

Ho0w about you accept that PC's rock for some things, Consoles for others.

I prefer my GTA type games, sports games and racing games on Console.

Pretty Much Everything else is PC.

I dunno, I liked shooting in GTA3 and VC on PC more than on the PS2.

Nother petition.

I just dislike 3rd person shooters on PC but thats just me.

I hate GTA games on consoles, you can't fucking aim.

MrVicchio · 2004-10-07, 08:13 PM

I had no problem, probably something to do with the skill level of the player not the console the game is played on...

OfaLoaf · 2004-10-07, 08:14 PM

And PC can be modded. I've downloaded several changes to both games, including

The Vice City News Cotper changed to Thunderbird 2
The Voodoo change to a Ranchero
Uber-powerful taxi that plows through almost anything (Too scared to try it on a tank)
Duessenburg (Think: Cruella DeVille's car)
VC police into VC police Voodoo (no hydaulics)

Force RockStar to put it on the XBox?

For one thing, they probably will if San Andreas is a success. You have to realize that porting isn't just a simple process, you don't just change a single line of code to port a game. They need to put effort into porting a game, and it seems RockStar is making the best choice for now, put it on the systems that they know GTA has been the most successful on, and if it is a success, port it over to the XBox. It's the decision that makes the most sense.

Of course, Grand Theft Auto is such a popular series that RockStar could put out absolute horse shit and it would still sell (another huge advantage of console gaming, it makes it much harder to pirate a game. I believe the Console pirated game ratio is like 5% and PC games it's like 70%)

GTA:VC is on Xbox get the GTA Double pack.

if youre talking about San Andreas, eh whatever. GRand theft auto games are obselete

MrVicchio · 2004-10-07, 08:22 PM

YEs porting is a pain, yes it requires work from the Devs, Yes PS2 has a large install base.

Fine dandy, X-Box is not chump change in terms of install base, they need to cater to us, the X-Box gamer not willing to settle for second best in terms of system choices.

ChewyLSB · 2004-10-07, 08:24 PM

Another thing you have to realize, XBox sales are the worst of the consoles, not in terms of games, but in terms of systems sold. PS2 is leading, followed by GameCube, and then XBox, so RockStar probably wants to release the game to the console with the highest fanbase.
