Thats a really great article I hadn't read much up now about GTA:San Andreas, but that 10 page article has really got me looking forward to the game now.

Stephen

interesting, nice to see some new screenshots, especially of the countryside bits. Cheers for that.

I don't think I could bring myself to buy the PS2 version when it comes out when I absolutely KNOW i'll be buying it when it eventually makes its way to the PC.

I'm getting a dead link for that. Anyone able to stick it elsewhere?

The Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas soundtrack has been outed, and it’s filled with classics. The last game’s music was a stroke of genius; pumping new life into old tunes, and giving the game a special touch that made it sell even better. But the next CD will be a cornucopia of great songs that puts most movie soundtracks to shame. How the hell do these guys secure the rights to all these songs?

Here’s the full list. Wow:

Salt’n’Pepa - Push it
Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby
Inner Circle - Bad Boys
KLF - 3am Eternal
Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy
Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
Jane’s Addiction - Been Caught Stealing
Poison - Every Rose Has It’s Thorn
Guns’n’Roses - Sweet Child O’ Mine
Smashing Pumpkins - Today
NWA - **** Tha Police / 100 Miles And Runnnin’
Snoop Doggy Dogg - Gin N’Juice / Ain’t No Fun
Warren G - Regulate
Fugees - Killing Me Softly
Coolio - Gangsta’s Paradise
Public Enemy - Rebel Without A Pause
The Stone Roses - Fools Gold
Happy Mondays - Step On
The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony
Radiohead - Creep

thnaks ste for linkage.

not too sure about that soundtrack tbh, looks like something the boys at gtaforums would cook up.

hopefully the snoop and warren g tracks make it in:)

that article made me forget all about hl2 and doom3 for a while

bizmark

Cool trucks with trailers always wanted that

Creamy Goodness

they is gonna need a fair few more tracks.

and jesus smells like teen spirit god what are thinking.

Stephen

I wonder if you can properly blow up a petrol tanker?

that could be fun, instigating a huge highway pile up with one of those!

bizmark

It will be fun flying down a hill and jackknifeing into a a few parked car's

who cares about them, i'm far more interested in the next GTA:D

Zombrex

The ability to go into the country and off road looks very interesting ... i wonder how they are going to deal with draw distance when you are up the mountain?

One thing for certain ... this game go'a be big!

Looks perfect - when will it come out on a real platform (PC)? A year after the PS2? So I'm going to wait for nearly 2 years before I finally play this, hopefully by then It wont have lost its shine:dunno:

I think it was about May when Vice City and GTA3 came out on PC, after coming out in November(?) on PS2.
Will probably be the same again.

That's only 22 songs. If it goes like the last two games there'll be at least 5 or 6 music stations (and probably a couple of talk ones). 22 songs wont fill 6 stations.

Have you got a link to where you got the track list from?

Deadwing

Bitter sweet symphony was 97, gangstas paradise was 94, for a game set in 1990-92 or so i cant see those songs being in it tbh.

The above list is only a rumour at the moment unfortunately. The only thing rockstar said is that they'res gonna be more music than vice city and that they'res deffo gonna be a country music station.
Dan Houser(main man in charge): “California has got the best radio of anywhere in America. There’s going to be a big, big range of music in this one.”

It has to be handed to Rockstar considering the enormity of this game. I thought Vice City was leaps and bounds ahead of anything remotely similar in style, reading about this however, is mind numbing.

Country? Reminds me of the Rednecks from GTA 2. I wonder if they'll be making a re-appearance? There were soooo many good redneck-related jokes in that game...

Oh yeah, goin' all the way back there, that was the Ballad of Chapped Lips Calhoun by the late Sideways Hank O'Malley and the Alabama Bottle Boys...:D

superconor

...And you know, that was so good, i reckon ill play it again!

Yeah SA looks incredible! Can't wait to get it. I wonder how the load times will be?

Does anyone think the GTA after it should incorporate retro aspects from GTA and GTA 2? Such as characters, missions, music, cars?

suppafly

oh yeah, those were the days alright. I so can't wait for it to come out. I reckon the GTA series has to one of my favs games ever. some many years of entertainment

"real" platform? I think it's testament to Rockstar that this series are a success purely on the gameplay which does get better .... and that in 2004 there is at least one game that will be gameplay orienatted and not "6 qudrillion rectangle per second up your 4 tetradinko ass" type crap. Yes the graphics have got better over the years but PS2 can obviously "compete" on pure gameplay terms with XBox and PC.....

CitySickness

The "soundtrack" listed above was purely a 90s music wish-list for the game compiled by C&VG staff, and is nothing to do with Rockstar.

Having said that, 'Regulate' better be on there, or caps will be busted in asses.
