orappa Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 It'd be interesting to see how it turns out. I wasn't keen on the original. I'm not sure how well it would appeal to the American market though, as driving on the left seems to really confuse them. I have no trouble switching from one side of the other. Link to comment
zerb Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 The Getaway didnt make a huge impact really, though seeing a GTA 3D engine around the streets of london will be very interesting. Link to comment
blitz1008 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 i wonder if the game would be in 1969 or a more current time? it wouldn't affect my decision in buying the game though, because i know that there will be some major improvements to the series. Link to comment
MAD_BOY Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 wasn't this just a rumor? if it's true though, i hope it'll be set in the current age, seeing that there's a lot more happening in London these days Link to comment

paul527 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Does aynone remeber GTA:London anyway? i own it, but dont play it too much. Take2 made all of its GTA1 cities into 3D GTA games, EXCEPT London and GTA2 so far. (why would you do GTA2 anyway?) And if they did make GTA:London in 3D, it would be sortof new, becuase all the 3D GTAs are in the USA. Players would have to get used to driving on the left side for starters. And players would get to see London culture too.(its not that different i think) And does London radio sound different from ours? i dunno. Link to comment
orappa Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Players would have to get used todriving on the left side for starters. I get the impression that if it is set in London, someone will create a mod to make the cars drive on the other side of the road. The idea of driving on the left really freaks Americans out for some reason. I have no idea why. And players would get to see London culture too.(its not that different i think) Maybe... it depends on whether they choose stereotypical depictions or not. And does London radio sound different from ours? i dunno. It's a different style and of course the accents are different. I'm not sure that they would just set it in London though. I mean, San Andreas had three massive cities with loads of countryside in between. Some people have said the next GTA may be GTA Europe. The narrow streets would be great for car chases though.

The three cities in SA were tiny compared to their real life counterparts so it's possible that they will make a life-sized city based on London alone. Link to comment
