RedBandit. Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 So i've just been chatting to 2 Microsoft employees on Xbox.com, i acquired several screengrabs of the conversation and i asked them as to why San Andreas had vanished from the marketplace.i played the innocent customer game and they delivered somewhat 100% information that we will see it coming Thanks guys.

LCHSS Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I hope users who bought the PS2 Classic (or the XBOX Original) can upgrade to the newer one FOR FREE[/font] This. Would be great, but as someone who got to 95% completion on the XBOX Original already I don't feel like getting it again for achievements. Plus Ive moved onto ps4 so achievements don't mean sh*t to me now anyways. I know, who's going to move just for a few achievements??It should be free because the San Andreas on PS3 is terrible, it's Driver with an Orange color palette feat. bugs, 1 of 5 times that I started it my PS3 has been crashed and sometimes the FPS drops from 30 to 15 :_-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA_dog Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Maybe GTA SA remake on RAGE engine? Second that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilezDawg Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I'm very hopefull this news is true, and hope R* can incorporate the RAGE engine into the remake. It's unlikely, but I can wish. I f*cking loved San Andreas. I still have my original copy from ten years ago, hot coffee modded and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inadequate Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) The Xbox 360 version probably may come like the mobile version? With the bunch of songs removed, the GInput thing and those ugly mobile graphics?. I hope noo. Edited October 23, 2014 by inadequate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jioyt 123 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Ooooh, is that why there like ten adverts after every couple of songs on IOS? Because half the stations seem to always have adverts on, so id have to do the radio skip "glitch" for abouts five mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LateNightNeons Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) Are you guys seriously expecting this to be a complete remake of GTA SA, with online, new features and in a new engine? Come on. It's just going to be a port of the mobile version, because it makes sense to have that available on 360/PS3 store instead of the old PS2/xbox port.

happygrowls Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Assert Yourself Next Time: Fail a mission This might just be the first game to give an achievement for mission failure.

InfiniteTias Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 You can't imagine how excited i'am for this! It has to come out on PS3 too, right?

TimoTheWolf Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) Lol, wonder if one of the secret achievements is Failing the mission "Wrong Side of the Tracks".

sesamtamam Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) Tbh all these years they could´ve easily made a remaster of Gta san andreas with better graphics even though it is a tough job to do. However, why wouldn´t they announce this prior to the release if it´s going to come out? I mean, just look at the vice city for mobiles, san andreas for past gen etc - they all got announced like months/weeks before coming out. That´s why I´m doubting a Remastered San Andreas will be released. *And would it even feel the same as playing the "old" san andreas? The old san andreas with sh*tty graphics is what made it so iconic and lovely in my oppinion. A remaster with GTAV graphics wouldn´t make sense as it would already be the same game almost. Conclusion: R* will release the first ever expansion pack for GTAV single player which will contain the old gta SA characters and story.

Jioyt 123 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 IOS is, obviously, the same. It has a few extra features, such as not loosing weapons when wasted (which makes one girlfriends 'special ability' useless.), the ability to restart missions from a checkpoint if failed, also some missions seem easier. Such as "Zeros second mission?", the plane barley looses fuel at all. Oh, im not sure if there is, but i think if you fail a mission so many times you have the option to skip that mission. (Il doubke check that) Thats what i expect, if/when it does get re-released. The only thing from the IOS i dont expect would be the ability to just exit the game and come back to where you were before you came off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing MAJOR like a complete new project with new engine. snip A team of members on the Forums did this using IV's engine, and there's more than 1 R* studios that could do this.

Why would they spend all that time, and only get a minuscule fraction of what they would get if they spent that time on GTA6 instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many missions would have to be completely changed up for the physics of the newer engine. That would be time consuming, but like I said, another R* studio could've been assigned to put in the work to do it. I'm just hoping for more changes than what the mobile version offers, because, after all, sites are stating that it's an "HD" remake, which the mobile version wasn't necessarily HD.

Kalerney Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 - This achievement list just mean that the actual S.A. available on the Xbox Live will receive an update including these, don't expect anything more. FALSE. I read an interview years ago, in which the guy who run the Xbox live said that there's no way they would ever implement achievements in Xbox Origin games. It goes against their rules. Conclusion : The achievements list (which looks completely legit) does mean that a genuine Xbox 360 version is on its way. - There's no way they'll make a truly improved game, R* studios are too busy developing other products.It would be too much work. Considering that this port was, until yesterday, totally secret, there's absolutely no way to know when they begun to work on it. It would be absolutely plausible that a R* studio like Leeds for example, was already working on the project 3 years ago. Conclusion : A real HD port, with RAGE engine etc ... is a truly possible option. I'm not saying we'll have it, I just say it's highly possible. - I'm sure it will be a digital release. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think only games sold physically can offer 1000g points. A game sold only on the Xbox Live Marketplace, with no retail version, can only features 25 achievements for 500g points (I've read that a long time ago, it may have changed). If you look at the achievements list, San Andreas HD will feature 33 achievements for 1000g points. Conclusion : If the datas I've mentioned above are not outdated, we'll have a physical version undoubtedly. Personally, I'd largely prefer a physical version, which would stand next to my GTA San Andreas PS2 Special Edition !

Pizentu Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 As mentioned on another page, what about us that bought SA on PS3/360? Dont tell me I have to buy a new version.

Cr!minal Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 You can most likely continue to play your Xbox Originals version (and later download it from "Download history" in case you delete it from your console). It has always been like that even if MS delisted it from Marketplace. It cannot be purchased again, but people who already have it can still play.

WildBrick142 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Assert Yourself Next Time: Fail a mission This might just be the first game to give an achievement for mission failure. All you had to do was to follow the damn train, CJ! Seriously though, this looks interesting. I might get it considering that I haven't purchased the Xbox Classics version and that I like collecting achievements. Hopefully it's a bit enhanced version like the Android/iOS versions.

Reyks Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I REALLY hope this isn't just a port of the mobile version they released last year, San Andreas deserves a proper remake after 10 years. Fingers crossed this will be a RAGE engine game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
