49 Square Miles

SA is the biggest to date until GTA V hits stores.

Can I just point this post out? The foolishness is sad.

For the land area of the island shape we've seen to be 49 square miles is impossible.

 

I know, for example, how big a tennis court is compared to the map of Los Santos. I know how big Los Santos is compared to the outline shape of the island. So I know how big the island is. If you say that island is 49 square miles, you're saying tennis courts in the game are over twice as big compared to people as tennis courts in real life. We know that's not true from screenshots.

 

49 is either just wrong (metric/Imperial unit confusion, or based on not knowing how big Red Dead Redemption is) or it refers to the whole area of the map including all the water around the island, or there is a whole other island that has been kept completely secret (least likely).

I dont get why we have two threads of this going

Both of the threads are going nowhere. Everyone assumes that RDR is 28sq miles when its barely even bigger than GTA 4. Most people cant accept the fact that GTA 5 will be 20-25sq miles, not including the water.is that really a bad thing?
