GTA - San Andreas Looks to be Next

Rayonic writes "US publisher Take-Two Interactive went on a pre-Christmas trademark registration spree, the products of which point us tantalisingly towards the likely name of the next installment of the massive Grand Theft Auto series." Of course it won't actually be out for many many many moons, but expect much speculation on this one. I s'pose great game sequels deserve it.

Thought it was Sin City?

Re:What's in a name?

In the original GTA, there were three towns: Liberty City, San Andreas, and Vice City.

Liberty City was used in GTA3
Vice City was used in GTA:VC
That leaves San Andreas.

Personally, I think it's just Rockstar covering their asses, I'd be suprised if it actually was San Andreas.

I run a forum for GTA San Andreas, as we've been speculating the next game for almost a year now:

GTA-SA.com [gta-sa.com]

but just in case I was wrong, I got gta-sc.com too ;) Interesting to note: Just a few days ago, Amazon began pre-selling "GTA4: Sin City", but later changed the name to "GTA: The next episode"

The article says:

"The title of the next GTA game has been the subject of fevered speculation for months; earlier this week a listing on UK online retailer Amazon.co.uk suggested GTA 4: Sin City, but this has subsequently been found to be incorrect."

I think the fun of the game would be gone in GTA: Baghdad seeing as average citizens would be armed to the teeth, which would make it a bit of a slanted contest when trying to beat an extra $50 out of a passer by.

During gameplay in GTA III on the PS2, press R2, R1, Triangle, X, L2, L1, Up, and Down during gameplay. This is a cheat code that puts guns in the hands of all pedestrians in the game. Some will shoot you if you steal their car.

Best thing is, they don't just get pistols, they get EVERYTHING, randomly...including flamethrowers and rocket launchers. Fire a gun into a crowded street corner and watch the mayhem... ;-D

For more fun, after you arm your pedestrians, enter Down, Up, Left, Up, X, R1, R2, L2, L1 and watch them riot as they all start attacking each other. Or enter Down, Up, Left, Up, X, R1, R2, L1, L2 and see how long you can survive with hordes of heavily armed pedestrians all trying their best to kill you.

I love this game... ;-D

Sadly, in Vice City, the Armed Pedestrians code only gives 'em melee weapons, pistols, and Uzis...
