True, but I imagine most if not everything they did on the PS2 is scrapped.  Doubt they could use much of it. 

But, in reality this game should do fine, will probably sell close to 2.5M and probably make a decent profit for Rockstar/Take Two

They said that they want this to be the next GTA. 2.5 is too low. This game will get GTA level marketing. It has the potential to be huge.

What they want it to be and what it will become are 2 different things.  It may have a decent amount of marketing, but it doesnt have GTA in the name, so that is one big strike against it.  

I agree

making another "GTA" type brand name + franchise is very hard, may be close to impossible

The same dev in history apart from nintendo has NEVER made 2 breakout franchises HUGE franchises....never

Agreed, reaching that level of success twice would be close to impossible.  They said the same things about alot of their other games.  Bully, State of Emergency.  Both were mere shadows of success that GTA was

Rockstar north didn't make those. They only made GTA and Manhunt for the last decade.

They did? Link?

Sorry I should have clarified,  I was saying that they used the "From the creators of GTAIII"

Ah, ok.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

Here is a list of all the games Rockstar made.   You will find both of them listed here along with all of the GTA games.

ohhhhhhhh I can't fucking wait for Agent. I don't care if it was originally an Xbox/PS2 game, I want to play it. Any game by Rockstar North is no cheap ass game, I expect big things.

@chairman - mao

Being an xbox/PS2 game originally doesn't make it inferior in any way

as most probably they have scrapped that & restarted completely



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey
