  1. gtasaskateboardth.jpgillspirit finally found the hidden skateboard in San Andreas. It's comes as a big surprise because we knew Rockstar had hidden it from us in the PS2 version, however they left it in the PC version for us (probably for the modders). We don't know if they included the animations associated with it, but for now it can be used to replace any melee weapon.

    In this case, I replaced the combat knife, but it can also be swapped out with other weapons. To replace the knife, find and open default.ide in your /data directory, and replace this line:

    335, knifecur, knifecur, null, 1, 50, 0

    with this:

    335, skateboard, skateboard, null, 1, 50, 0

    To replace any of the other melee weapons, just edit the second and third column in the same manner.

  2. In my search for GTA News I found this very interesting article on CNN Money. Aparently Take 2 Interactive(pubishers of GTA) has payed the SEC $7.5 million to stop the investigation into their "accounting practices". Take 2 did not admit or deny that they did anything wrong.

    "We have cooperated fully and are pleased to have resolved Take-Two's outstanding issues with the SEC," Paul Eibeler, Take-Two's president and CEO, said in a statement.

    "The comprehensive company-wide changes we have instituted in recent years, including implementing a series of internal controls and procedures designed to ensure that our financial reporting processes meet the highest standard of integrity and professionalism, and making key additions to our senior executive team and Board of Directors, have made our company much stronger."

    "We remain focused on delivering shareholder value through our leadership in the global interactive entertainment software market," he added.

  3. <img src="http://www.thegtaplace.com/images/gtalcs/scans/th/opm8.jpg" width="150" height="105" border="1" align="left">In the latest issue of the Official Playstation2 Magazine in the UK they have released the first info about the game. You will play as Tony Cipriani in the year 1998 in Liberty City. The game kicks of where Tony returns to the city after he laid low for a while. Below we outline some of the stuf that we know so far:

    ► You will be able to drive bikes in the game!

    ► Rockstar are unsure if they will be able to keep flight in the in game, due to technical limitations.

    ► You may be able to run your own MP3s off the PSP's MemoryStick Duo.

    ► Salvatore will be returning in the game and you will be working for him.

    ► Luigi's club is now run by JD O'Toole, a triad pervert.

    ► Hidden Packages, Stunt Jumps and Rampages will be hidden in all new locations.

    ► Some buildings have been altered from 2001's GTA III to better represent the era.

    ► It looks like Luigi's Club has been renamed to "Paulie's Revue Pad" for the new era.

    ► Several old faces can be seen including Misty, Joey's girlfriend from GTA3 and Salvatore.

    Also we got the magazine scans! Twelve screenshots taken direct from the PSP! Click here to view them! Don't forget to check out our missions page where we already have info on 2 of the many missions featured in the game.

    UPDATE: I just remembered that Tony owned a restaurant on Little Italy(which was later renamed to Saint Mark's due to the game Mafia) in GTA 3.

  5. Dont you read what Sony says! Playstation aint a gaming console! Its a super entertainment computer! With the gaming only being a part of the whole system.

  6. In this recent article it seems that the PS3 will run Linux! Also take this quote for example about the gestures of the Eyetoy

    But the PS3's UI will evolve much faster. For example, if we had an interface where we could control applications using gestures and words using the Eye Toy, it would be like Minority Report.

    gues my Eyetoy will come in handy....

  7. Uluru who is known for creating the GTA3 and Vice City Garage Editors has already come up with one for GTA San Andreas! The first version only allows you to edit the cars in Los Santos, but Im sure he will be able to create better versions as time goes by.

    This first version only includes the garages in Los Santos, I havn't unlocked the other cities yet so I can't really test the memory addresses that the cars are stored at.

    This tool lets you change what cars are stored in your garages, the colour of them and whether they are damage proof. It also lets you lock them in there so everytime you open the garage the cars will be waiting for you.

    Just remember that if you add a car into a garage that had no cars in it before, will cause your game to freeze.

  8. As promised, we are able to throw the GTA San Andreas PC cheats at you! Thanks to edisoncarter most of the PC cheats are now found. However, most of it are gibberish and doesnt make any sense, but they work!

    This is a complete list of cheats for the PC version. I have not checked if all of these work or still do the same things. As before, there are many different key combos that match each cheat, so I'm listing the shortest possible ones. It could take some time to find the intended textual words.

    - edisoncarter

    The cheat page is up and we will update it every time new ones become available and when we receive the textual words that makes sense.

  9. I just got word from a person called Shawn that he just put up his GTA San Andreas Xbox review recently. Click here to view it. From what I have read it's pretty good and worth a read for Xbox fans of the game.

    Here is a extract:

    On October 25, 2004 I spent my evening waiting in line with many other avid gamers for 7 o’clock to roll by and my local EB Games to begin selling Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas for the PS2. It was an eye-opening experience for me. You’d have thought that Elvis himself was back from the dead for another comeback tour. It was electric. And although I had played video games for a long time, I had never considered it mainstream until I stood in that line between a 40-ish year old man and a wide-eyed mother sent to pick the game up by her sons. This truly was an event. This was a Springsteen concert for the gaming crowd. This proved to me that gaming had finally come into its own and was truly accepted as a medium in our society. And looking back on it, I don’t think any other game could have done it; not Halo, not Metal Gear and not Final Fantasy. GTA has become more than a game. Everyone has heard about it; good or bad. GTA has defined a generation and is solidly ingrained within our culture. It may take place in the 80’s or early 90’s but it has always been a barometer for our current trends. How many other games can claim such a mass appeal and reach? How many other global events can? GTA has changed us as a culture and experiencing it again on the Xbox has made it even sweeter than ever.

    As for the cheats I am trying my best to find out if these cheats are infact correct.
