Heh, are they trying to release that thing on every platform? It wasn't long since it came out on iOS and Android.
I'd rather see them re-release some of their less widely available games. PC ports of The Warriors or GTA Chinatown Wars, for instance.

The non-HD version of SA had been available already on 360 in the past, I'm sure of it, as part of the "Xbox Originals" range, alongside GTA3 and VC. It did vanish some time ago, though (the disc version still works fine, though), which I always thought strange, seeing as how it - along with 3, VC, and the Sony-exclusive Stories - are still available on PSN.
Agree completely on Chinatown Wars; some non-handheld/tablet version would be nice.

Apparently it's the "best GTA game made", but I wouldn't know.
I refuse to play that game because it perpetrates every negative racial stereotype that's popular in America.

(

Turns out the game got released for £2.99.
At that price, unless it turns out to be buggy as shit - which I doubt, since I presume they used the original Xbox code as a base, which already ran almost flawlessly in backwards compatibility, AFAIK - it shall have been worth it.
Questions is whether R* will follow this up with HD versions of III and Vice City.

Spot on. Everywhere I go now those link aggregators feed you nothing but semiotic and social games criticism. It's clearly where the money is. The simpler times of voodoo weightloss foods and 8 things I never knew about Kim Karadshian are long gone.

So what? Just buy it from the US Marketplace.
