I know they'll match Saints Row graphically but I hope they have at least the functionality anf features Vice City had. would suck to go back to not being able to swim or fly jets.

They're showing this way earlier than expected. They must recognize the competition out there (Fall releases this year + Crackdown + Saints Row)

Can't wait for Grand Theft Auto "Eye-Vee"

In certain aspects, GTA had been significantly outshined by "next gen knock offs". Here is hoping that it is able to match or beat-

Saints Row's:
Character customization

Crackdown's:
Online co-op
Great framerate
Streaming world without load times

And of course the physics engines both games had acting on all objects and people.

It better have Saint's Row's insurance fraud or at least the ability to make your character go limp. It made the game for me.

The timing of this trailer makes it pretty obvious why it's being shown so early. It's no secret that Take 2's stock hasn't done so well...what better way to bump it up just a few days before fiscal '06 ends?

I wouldn't expect to see much...might get a 30 or 60 second trailer with some CG concepts or whatever. But that would be more than enough to have the desired effect for the shareholders. For that reason it's a very smart move.

Let's see some amazingly-cool animation, GTA dudes! Personally, I'll be kind of disappointed if GTA IV isn't the first one to let players play two different characters, one on each side of the law.

A somewhat ironic comment coming from "Confidence" Man...

At least people have given up dreams of seeing a photorealistic Midtown, or wherever this game is going to be set. Beyond that, who knows? San Andreas I thought was a massive jump over the first two games, and that had a two year gap. There's a three year gap for this one, with more horsepower to play with. So I think it's reasonable for people to be pumped up.

Well one would hope that the "next gen knock-offs" would outshine a last gen game. We have yet to see what next gen GTA has to offer so the way I see it the likes of Saint's Row and Crackdown have only challenged for the crown, not taken it. (Although Crackdown is so different from the usual GTA formula that perhaps it's not even in the same category...)
