You don't know if you should feel sorry for the company that basically said "fuck our fans, we're not fixing the game-crippling bugs in Vice City"?
Seriously, the entire Rockstar empire could suffer the fate of Acclaim and I honestly wouldn't care.
Colin: Yeah, they've had experience. Pity most their games are ludicrously overhyped and then universally panned come release. |

Clearly you've never played Willow. |

The movie came out in 1979... plot goes like this.
* All the gangs in NYC declare a truce and hold a summit. Seeing as if they all combined their membership, they'd outnumber the cops 5:1... (ahem)
* The organizer, who's also the head of the city's biggest gang, the Gramercy Riffs, gets shot and killed. You'd think it would be obvious who did it, as damn near everyone in attendance honored the no-weapons rule (including the Warriors, our intrepid protagonists)... but...
* The Warriors get blamed for it.
* Consequently, they have to make it back to Coney Island, their turf, without getting torn limb from limb.
* Mayhem ensues.
This would actually work REALLY well as a Final Fight-style game. I mean, take a look at some of the gangs. (The Baseball Furies?!) Not only that, but in the movie, they were essentially unarmed and fought hand-to-hand. No, they don't go through ALL 100,000 gang members... hey, they wanted to make it out ALIVE. |

Haven't heard of the movie OR the game! Two for two! 
Seriously, if it's Rockstar making it then it at least has a *chance* of being decent. I mean, it's a genre that they've had MORE than enough experience with. :\ |

O.G.'s obviously showing the lack of respect for the movie
I know I've seen the movie.. but unfortunately, I can't remember it at all. 
But... from what I've read/remembered, it sounds like the game's gonna be interesting.. Then again, it could be because of my homesickness for New York that's talking there

(clinks bottles together)
Come out and plaaayyyeeeaaayyyy...
Screenshots were leaked, but now I can't find them (Rockstar said to cease, desist, and just generally STOP IT ALREADY). Aw peas. Anyway, seems they might be doing this game, based on the WHOMP-ASS 1979 movie of the same name, because they are allegedly planning on remaking the movie too. Further info here. |
