Have you heard the news! Grand Theft Auto 3 and Grand Theft Auto:Vice City are to be realised on the Xbox in one double pack called "Crime and Punishment". I guess that new title is to get around sony's exclusive rights for the series to be on PS2. I'm very excited! Has anyone seen any screen shots or anything they could post a link to? I've heard there's screen shots about the net but I don't know where.

I'm not entirely sure but I have heard that the graphics are notably spruced up although I haven't seen any screenshots myself. Because of the xbox hard drive you'll probably be able to quick save and not go to save points like the PS2 version which always annoyed me.

Thanks Kakero! The graphics look noticably better than the PS2 version I think although it's sort of hard to tell without seeing them side by side.

It's great though for people like me who's PC isn't powerful enough to run the recent Grand Theft Auto games.

p.s. I see this topic was moved I guess I did post it in the wrong forum whoops!

Halo, Knights of the Old Rebuplic, etc... And this is from someone that swore he would NEVER own a gaming console, till I got my XBox as a christmas gift about 2 years ago!

i think the xbox version of vice city will be the same as the PC version except it wont have the controls to make your own roads.

Ive got a couch right next to my PC. thing is my brothers HUGE leather swivel chair is miles more comfortable :D

Oh and Halo is a sore point for most pc gamers. on the verge of a PC release, microsoft bought bungie and (IMHO) 'raped' the game to fit the needs of the console. microsofts power comes from its ill-gotten money :( .
