Plenty of Polygons, Plenty of Space... The Perfect Blend

Nah,that ain't the same.You will see when or if you play the PC version.There is hardly anything on that map + it looks worse that San Andreas although that may just be a bad screenshot.

The map posted by skyline man isn't right. If i press start on my PS2 i got a much bigger map. You have mile's off open air and sea to traffel.

anyway, GTASanan is Looking for YOUR San Andreas PC/Xbox Questions

With just under a month left until the release of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on the PC and Xbox systems, interest in the game is steadily boiling up. Through various online and print previews, we have learned of all the improvements and changes that will be in place in the PC and Xbox ports.

Over the coming month, we might or might not be able to arrange a meeting with Rockstar Games and have the opportunity to ask them some questions, and so we would like to hear from our visitors. What do you still want to know about the upcoming releases that hasn't been said yet? In order to make the questions unique and different from the usual details we hear reported in magazines and online gaming sites, we want you to help put together a set of questions.

We welcome your questions at the "what do you want to know" topic on the forums. When putting together possible questions, make sure the questions are about either the PC or Xbox version and make sure the answer is not already in the PC and Xbox info

Skyline_man · Post by **Skyline_man** » 11 May 2005, 11:10

sorry for the double post but there is some new PC screenshots revealed

check the full sized ones here

Enjoy

Dragon-of-Rune · Post by **Dragon-of-Rune** » 11 May 2005, 11:31

Maybe i'll get it for pc to, but only if you can import your own cars and stuff into the game like in the other GTA games.

Skyline_man · Post by **Skyline_man** » 11 May 2005, 12:50

yeah, you can do that, actually R* itself, said that officially on the Official site , see the features, the last one

Dragon-of-Rune · Post by **Dragon-of-Rune** » 11 May 2005, 14:47

Sweet then i can start making my own cars. Only thing that sucks is that i have to play the game all over again. I already got it 99% completed on my PS2.

Awesome stuff

My computer is now clean and healthy (been defragging and removing files the entire weekend, which is why I haven't been on the forum for a while), so I think there's a chance I might experience some of the awesome graphics myself.

And less than one month left....
