Although i am still slightly annoyed with Rockstar games for treating there original market as second class citizens (even with we are! lol) at least there Vice City advert is encouraging, i don't know how long this advert has been like this but on Chanel 5 they had the vice city add and Had the "on PS2 line" then they said and "coming soon to PC" good stuff, i thought they had shelved it but this is definitely good news! A) one less reason to have a PS2 as its main title is now available on the PC. B) The original GTA 3 was so much better on the PC as the targeting system actually worked. Hopefully it will be like the last GTA in so much as we heard nothing about the PC version for ages and then suddenly it was released a few weeks after the major announcements.

*claps and makes noise like a seal* that game got so old so fast. admitidly it was fun at first, but my enjoyment for that one didnt last as long as it did for GTA3, i didnt like the whole retro thing. still thats just my opinion.

Some time after the PS2 version though. For those who like the game, I think many would already have it on PS2.

I checked out the GTA VC site last week.
May 16th if my memory is still in working order.
Can't wait to be honest.

yeah but i haven't, and to be brutally honest thats all i care about! It has been a little longer than i would have hoped (5 or 6 months) but i would gladly have waited a month or two even if i had had a ps2 for a pc version as it is so much more playable on the pc.

Lets just hope, GTA-VC on PC is not graphic card dependant (ie, needing a particular graphic card in order to work).

the last one wasn't, you needed to fiddle it a bit but i didn't see a card that it didn't work with. Even worked with my old voodoo 4
