Gta: San Andreas Preview

Tequila

Having to eat in GTA:SA is old news, padres. At most the feature will be a mild inconvience, and knowing Rockstar there will be simple cheat codes to disable it. Then you take a look at the other features, and realise the game is going to rock.

What if you <i>want</i> to be fat?

I want to play a fat drug dealer, dammit.

BloodySloth

Am I the only one that thinks adding eating to the game would add a dynamic other than roleplaying? Stopping by the side of the road, running into Burger King and demanding a cheeseburger during a mad shootout/carchase while dodging bullets and shooting at "the fuzz" could/will add some hilarity to the game when your playing with a bunch of friends (and when aren't you when playing GTA), and so will morbidly-obese-black-man-on-kid's-stolen-bicycle drivebys.

Yeah, but I don't think getting beefy like that will let you say "punk motha f**ka" while shooting down gangstas.

*Wishes there was a way to get Rockstar to include "I EAT FOR CHRIST" as an easter egg*

Easy. By adding life lessons to the game, they get angry irate parents off their backs, while simulatiously adding a new "gameplay element".

GG.

Yeah right. It's publications like The Daily Mail and irate parents that do Rockstar's PR for them.

Kitki

I think it'll be good and bad.. It'll add more realism, but also be an inconvience.. On a mission, then BLAM! gotta eat

taboofires

I wouldn't call eating only at burger joints and food stands a "life lesson," but meh.

Sounds like gaming treadmill to me.

If your smart you would eat before begining missions...

Grillkohle

So does he crap his pants if you don't visit the restroon in time ?

Zaggy

Meh, I like adding the need for food, but I would like multiplayer a lot more...

Necrosis

Mm, a crapgun would be a nice replacement for punching. Looks like vomiting will be the nearest. I expect someone to mod a pukegun shortly after the PC release, mwahaha.

But it'll be hilarious to complete the game and then just eat yourself up to the max weight and ride around in some hideous chromed monstrousity with pneumatic suspension.




I don't think I'll leave the house once this game comes out.

Maveric

You all dis' it and you dont even think of the gameplay factors and variables that this "crappy gameplay element" could do.

Reaction = opposite and equal reaction example:
You're fat?
Gangsters point and laugh.
You punch them. Hard.


As well, because you can probably develop your body into infinity (or at least a very very very large amount) you could technically do 1-hit punches on everyone and everything.

Rabid dog?
1-hit melee punch with your 10" diameter muscles rippling.

Steel door?
55 Pounds of meat AKA "Your left leg" slam into it, knocking it down.

Enemy gangster on ground level and you're on the second floor window with no ammo?
Can you say "Cannon ball"?


I knew you could. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->
