Ah, it's that time again. Stores are breaking street date and videos are appearing. It's one thing seeing the trailers, especially considering that the GTA games use in game models for any cut-scenes, but quite another to see actual game video. More enjoyable to see people just tool around aimlessly in sandbox land just mucking about intentionally drawing the cops and driving insanely badly which never makes it into official trailers.

Now I just have to wait for the PC version, which I'm sure will come about 6 or 8 months down the track.

The GTA series is probably my fav video game series, followed the game from the good old days when I played a 5 minute time limited demo of the original GTA on a PC game magazine cover CD. Yet I never made the jump to the console versions, happy to wait. Bit more painful with Liberty City and Vice City Stories, but if they won't convince me to buy a console, pretty much nothing will.

That and I can't conceive of playing said games without a mouse...
