what the keyboard and mouse were for dont need 2 sticks not for me anyways did not grow up in that genDreamcazman wrote:The load times were quite atrocious plus the controls. Not so much a fault of the port, but having only one analogue stick, the DC controller isn't the best when it comes to FPS's.willis wrote:What's so crappy about it? just all the load times?

Neither did I but once you're used to it (blame Halo, lol), it's hard to go back.Ian Micheal wrote:dont need 2 sticks not for me anyways did not grow up in that gen

It would be possible 100% BUT everything would be downscaled to fit into ram and there will be more loading times.

Not any more

A video showcase witch covers the projects has been created by YouTuber RacingFreaking, which shows the improvements made to both GTA3 and Vice City – watch it below.
Aap – the lead developer of the project – confirmed to Eurogamer that they had received a DMCA from Take-Two Interactive, the parent company of GTA developers Rockstar Games.

So the lads working on the GTA3 mods got hit with a DMCA - that's a real shame. The game must be what nearly 20 years old by now. Even Nintendo have turned a blind eye to the Mario64 stuff which a but if a surprise considering they went after the incredible c64 version of SMB's last year but what can you do - was gutted when Sega went after the SOR fan remake a few years back.

Given what you achieved with Mario 64 just you saying this gives me hope that we might see someone give GTA a go.mrneo240 wrote:It could be ported.
I loved GTA 1 & 2 and the third game was the last of the series that I played and enjoyed. I could never get into the games from Vice City onwards which is slightly at odds with most folk I think
