  1. A secret island hidden somewhere far off the coast.
  2. Here's some more. You might think I'm crazy. The image is from the first GTA IV trailer - Remember that distance when looking at the image below:
  3. I figure there has to be at least one more trailer and they'd want to give people a couple of months to post about it and discuss it before releasing the game. I think it's reasonable to expect a new trailer before the end of October. It's been a long enough wait. I don't know how many trailers they'll have, though. With that said, I feel a March release is plausible.
  4. Update - I moved some things around a little and changed the map slightly. Here is another in-game pic from IV that shows a view and the distance covered - http://i.imgur.com/723Bc.jpg
  5. I'm bored, so I decided to try to calculate the size of TreeFitty's map compared to LC using my estimated distance from the oil rig to the bank tower. I know it's not completely accurate, but I think it's pretty close. http://i.imgur.com/RO6cw.jpg
  6. Just pointing out that they can include anything in a re-imagined setting. They stated that they're not going to reveal as much about this game before release as they did with the others so the players can discover things themselves. I can see them applying something like that to the map as well. Hold back information and let people think they're just getting one area and then reveal more in the next trailer. Imagine the hype and excitement if they did that. That's a bit of a stretch. Boston was never included in the same game as LC. Also, how big do you estimate Los Santos to be compared to Liberty City? They said a few weeks or so. That "or so" could mean anything with Rockstar.
  7. I'm fine if they're in it or not. I'm just looking at the facts: - The city that they've shown us isn't that big. - It's their "most ambitious game". They've already made a game with 3 full cities in completely different areas with lots of variety. Anything less than that is a step backwards and can't be considered "most ambitious". - Basically dodging the San Andreas question. If they're not in it, there's no good reason not to rule them out and have people think they're still possible. You don't want people to feel let down. You want them to find out they're getting more than they expected. Rockstar's quote: reimagine: to form a new conception of A re-imagined California can include anything they want to add. It could include Texas if they wanted. You mention Las Vegas isn't in California. However, the license plates say San Andreas. In GTA, Los Santos and Las Venturas are both in the same state - San Andreas.
  8. Their wording leaves SF and LV possible. They haven't ruled them out. San Andreas also headed to the city of Los Santos and surrounding hills, countryside and beaches. But, it also headed to other areas. "Re-imagined" means they can include anything they want. It doesn't have to be accurate. If SF and LV aren't in the game, why wouldn't he just say it? That reply looks like he's hiding something. If San Fierro and Las Venturas are in the game, nothing they have said would be a lie. They have chosen their words very carefully. Also, I really don't see the point of having both Los Angeles and San Diego. They're too similar. It would be like adding another island of skyscrapers to Liberty City - more of the same thing. Variety is better. Plus, San Diego isn't special or exciting enough to be included as a full city in their "most ambitious game".
  9. Here is another picture to help compare the size of Los Santos to Liberty City. The cars in both pics are about the same size, so the scale is close.
  10. I can see that, but like I said, I think it's close enough and I'm more interested in the size. How big do you think Los Santos is compared to Liberty City? I think there are more cities in the game. I don't think they'd create a San Diego type city either. It would be too similar to Los Santos. I have a feeling San Fierro and Las Venturas are in it. I could be wrong though.
  11. If the lake pic was south of the plane, wouldn't you be able to see more mountains on the right side of the pic? Anyway, it's close enough. I'm more interested in the size of Los Santos compared to Liberty City.
  12. Using this image for scaling purposes... My estimated size of the city area of Los Santos:
