Think back to WWF:smackdown 2.all the new improvements :hell in cell,ladder matches,TLC, better career mode and CAW.After Smackdown 1,which REVOLUTIONISED wrestling games (like GTA 3).The sound of a second,more superior game was exciting, so everyone just HAD to keep track of what was going to be added to the sequel, just like whats going on now,when i first played Smackdown 2 i thought yeah all this stuff i knew ages ago, this is what i imagined.I(and allot of others) knew vice city had 40 weapons,100 vehicles and loads more by july-august.This long wait and the constant updates like:new vice city pics, chainsaw confirmed in new rockstar sequel,upcoming GTA delayed. All this just goes on and on, dont you see, We've completed Vice city before it has even been released.

Or maybe i'm wrong,maybe it will revolutionise games even further than before, but it WONT REVOLUTIONISE ME like GTA 3 did.

When I read the review of GTA 3, my brain could not process the data, there was no game to compare to, so i just had to go out on december 23 2001 to buy this new craze.
When I go to read the review of GTA : vice city my mind will just compare the new game to the old one but with more stuff which i knew about ages ago.

I'm gonna own it no doubt about it,and probably fall under its spell for another few months or maybe not. November 08 2002 will be a day of mixed emotions. This long cold wait will have different affects on people and better be worth it.
A bad example using smackdown 2 maybe, but the morale of the story is there.
I hate to be so down over what will be a day to remember in gaming history but you have to look at the negatives as well.

I leave with a message as simple as this, dont write a potentialy sad message as after a while the tears make your skin as wrinkled as the old woman who get hit with baseball bats on a certain game(my precious GTA 3 will always have a place in my heart. sniffle sniffle)
