I just got my issue of Hyper today (aussie gaming mag). And they mentioned MTA in their news section, good news.
Here it is quoted
"MULTI THEFT AUTO"
"Gaming geeks can be incredibly rescoureful. Just take a look at multitheftauto.com. These guys have managed to produce a multipolayer mod for GTA III on PC that is only a few megabytes in size, simply by trawling through the GTAIII code for pieces of multiplayer code tgar Rockstar left behind from an abandoned play mode. The mod supports up to 32 players, but the MTA guys recommebd only 10 to 12 players per server. They have just released their vice city mod, so check out their website now for more information on this crazy mod!"
heehh, just thoughtid let you know
