On a slightly different note, apparently Niko is about 1:10 in... Downloading hi-def now. will varify.

EDIT: Yep, he was there. It was the scene from

the handover of Gracie back to Gay Tony.

Very good trailer. I can already tell that I will like Luis character. Among other things I was hoping for is a fight club! And there it is.. :) Need to go watch the trailer now for about 15 times.

Edit: I just noticed the club were all the dancing takes place is Bahamas Mama, if anyone wanted to know.

OH EM GEEE!!! So frickin awesome. Discos, fight clubs, base jumping, A CHOPPER PICKING UP A SUBWAY CAR!! So much more awesome than I had imagined it when I read the other article. Hoping R* release the episodes for the PC.

Why do I get the feeling Luiz was supposed to be the original main protagonist? Look at all the cool shit he gets to do as opposed to Niko! :lol:

Now with the feature that should have been there in the first place: The Parachute.

Oh well.. better late than never I guess..

YES! The parachute! This trailer was amazing I saw a new gun that looked like an automatic shotgun. And the new helicopters look sick! Being able to pick up subway cars will be really fun. I like how R* is making this one really epic with missions that look like they're going to be on the same scale of fun as the old GTAs. Gonna watch it again a few times.

Oh yeah the fight club and nitrous is awesome as well. Although they could've had nitrous in the original game since it was in SA and maybe they got the idea of fight club from Saints Row 2 but whatever looks great.

Edit again: At 1:04 I saw a P90 and they've never had those in GTA so that'll be cool. LOL and possibly the return of the DDR-like dancing minigame :P

~sigh~ Now if they would just hit the PC. Looks like it might be a nice addition to a fairly good game.

Also noticed an USAS style autoshotgun (similar to SR2's AS14 Ass-hammer).

Shotgun = Good!

For the Christmas download they should patch the new weapons & vehicles (& parachute) into the original

game & TLAD. Niko & Johnny deserves cool Christmas gifts.

That trailer was tasty. The bit with the helicopter taking the train made me jizz a little. Parachute yay!
