Name : Grand Theft Auto: San AndreasGenre : Beat-'Em-Up > ActionRelease dates : 07/06/05 US - 10/06/05 EUDeveloper : Rockstar NorthCompany : Rockstar Games---------------------------------------------------------------------------------http://www.gamesindu...ge.php?aid=6000Profits fall slightly for full year, but San Andreas matches expectations in Q4US publisher Take Two Interactive has announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended October 31st, revealing that profits fell slightly despite the strong performance of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.Results for the fourth quarter saw a $62.6 million profit on sales of $438 million, a huge improvement over last year's $26.3 million profit on sales of $277 million, reflecting the worldwide success of San Andreas during the period.However, full-year results were more mixed; while the company's revenues rose by $100 million to a massive $1.13 billion compared with FY2003, its profits actually fell from $98.1 million to $65.4 million, largely due to an increasing percentage of the firm's sales being made up of low-margin titles.Take Two took the opportunity presented by the results announcement to reveal a number of changes to their release schedule for 2005, including confirmation that The Warriors has been delayed into the second calendar quarter, while Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition is now due to arrive in calendar Q1.Most notably, however, the company has announced that an Xbox version of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas will ship in the June quarter, along with the previously announced PC version of the game.Take Two has also revealed that while the new EA deal with the NFL will prevent it from doing a licensed professional football title next year, it is exploring other options which would allow it to continue the successful ESPN football series.ESPN football might not have the NFL at all next year

There's not much I can say on this topic other than it sucks for PS2 enthusiasts Why does it suck for them? Because many of them said that San Andreas wouldn't make its way over to XBox. Now, if GTA3 and GTA: Vice City made thier ways over to XBox, why not San Andreas. This is a title that I wanna pick up just because it's so much fun. And I'm glad its making its way over to XBox because now I can play it on my XBox and I don't have to mooch off of my friend to play it and start gang wars

I got it for PS2, but I'll most likely trade that in and get the X-Box version when it comes out. We all know which system it will perform better on. I just like to think about how great GTA: SA would have been if it would have been developed the other way around, coming out on X-Box originally........sigh.

Bleh, the GTA games are aweful, people only like them because you get to break the law. Stale, repetitive gameplay, bad AI and pixelated graphics + Unimaginitive missions = Bleh.

I found San Andreas not as much fun as the other 2 next gen GTA games. I asked others in school and they think the same thing too. Maybe its too big? I beat it and i don't even want to pick it up anymore where as the others i would keep playing days after i beat it for the 3rd time.

the Star Wars PC game was slated for release Winter 2004, and that never came through. Things are always unfortunately liable to fall through, especially when the planned release date is another year away. If it does come out for the Xbox, I'd expect it sometime in early 2006.

first thing i noticed on the ps2 version of san andreas was the slower frame rate when there was a bunch of ppl on the screen... i have an xbox so i'll just wait until it comes out for it.. not that far away =] and plus, the frame rate is gonna be so much better.. its gonna kill the ps2 version

I'm actually looking forward to this game if it ever comes out for the Xbox. I'm one of the few people who was in heaven with the driving cheme from the Double Pack for the Box. Pulling a trigger to accelerate....geni-frickin-ous....just like pushing on the pedal with your feet, except this time you're using your fingers. It's such a natural motion that it makes it easy to drive, and that made said game(s) more enjoyable for me. So, assuming it comes out when they say it will, assuming it's got the same driving controls, I'm looking forward to GTA:SA for Xbox.

All I really need is for them to increase the framerate and the draw distances, and add custom soundtracks.

Its going to be better on Xbox but the only thing I didn't like was that it was released for the PS2 first and its taking forever for the Xbox

*sigh* it's not going to be any better Microsoft doesn't own Rockstar so they can't make any improvements as it would be illegal Rockstar sells to the consoles so they can't ask for improvements the graphics are not gonna be better either the reason they tooks o long is cuz they have to change it to an entirely different system look how long it took to get Vice cuty out on X-box it's gonna be the same no better no worse the only thing wrong is it's going on this %^@^ systemIts going to be better on Xbox but the only thing I didn't like was that it was released for the PS2 first and its taking forever for the Xbox

Well since the first gta games were originally made for playstation (I thinkIts going to be better on Xbox but the only thing I didn't like was that it was released for the PS2 first and its taking forever for the Xbox
) thats why they probably release it on ps2 first. I think they put too many sidequest things in it. It makes it soooo damn boring getting 100%
