Someone offered me £25 for San Andreas today. I could use the money to get another PSP game (either Wipeout Pure or Everybody's Golf -aka Hotshots)

Problem is, £15 is in Virgin vouchers, and I hate getting games from that overpriced place...

So. Do I sell the game, even though I'm only a few missions in and will want to play it again, so that I can get another PSP game on launch?

hm...help me out...

Really - how much?

Seems everyone is keen for me to ditch San Andreas, so I will...

If yuo think that you'd prefer whatever PSP game you'd get to GTA, then go for it. Personally, I'd say sell your PS2 version of SA and buy the PC version.

Don't forget you can always just go and hang around Virgin, and then swap your vouchers with someone who is actually going to buy something there.

It's boring. I've finished all the missions and got it up to 65% or something but I've lost interest now. The free roaming element isn't exciting anymore because it's been done to death, which leaves San Andreas with nothing to entice me.

I'd have to agree about the soundtrack, it's rubbish. Vice City had a marvellous soundtrack and I could listen to whatever came on. On San Andreas I usually turned it off because everything on the play-list made the experience seem that little bit more dull.

PSP GTA will definately not be as big as San Andreas, but Vice City wasn't as big as SA and I thought it was better.

As long as it has the same amount of free roaming Vice City had then i'll love it.

I'd take the money.

I've barely played SA since I got it at launch. I just can't seem to get into it at all, despite absolutely loving GTA3 and Vice City. I think the relatively crappy soundtrack has a lot to do with it.

I haven't even opened up the 2nd section of the map yet!

I seriously doubt it will be a replacement, it might be good, but it won't be as good.
