San Andreas coming to mobile this DECEMBER!!

[Matt Murdock]

What are the requirements for GTA 3 and Vice city to work on a mobile phone? (Amount of ram, clock speed, cores, space I mean)

Ask TheRock, he has those running smoothly on least specs

That's so great. I'm getting iPhone 4s for my birthday, which is exactly on the 22nd of December. Seems like I have yet another birthday wish... ;D

As awesome as this is, I hate to crush some of your dreams in saying the chances of a proper multiplayer client such as SA:MP are fairly low. Developing such for mobile platforms isn't quite the same as for PC and the networking support doesn't work the same. If it doesn't have some peer-to-peer feature builtin, I would be surprised to see anyone develop the features onto it.

There's a TeamFortress 2 look a like multiplayer game on Android already, just so you know.

We are oficially playing a game that is now considered a clasic, I still remember when these graphics were mind blowing, I miss the old days where having a potato for PC was actually good, we are playing an ancient game, for such a long time this comunity stayed strong, the server stayed godlike through so much time, always when a mobile release for a game comes out you know that the computer tech has gone way the fuck out the window since then, this comunity stuck strong since we thought  8 polygons for an arm was enough, GG dudes, this is the definition of making it.

I recently bought a Nexus 7

I'm sure it can run it really well!  Can't wait to play SA:MP on tablets!!

Don't get your hopes up, even if you could you wouldn't be able to be on the same server as the PC guys.

Apart from controlling the game on a mobile device which is generally awful, I can bet it will take up a fair bit of space too..
I can see it turning into more of a frustration on a phone than it would be entertaining.

2GB , 4 max, not a problem at all when you have a 32GB or larger SD card.

Tablets or larger screen devices, also you can connect a Xbox or PS controller to an Android device via OTG.

I know what I'll be doing at work to pass the time when this drops.

[Devin]

It would be the same as saying take a laptop with you to play the game.
What's the point of a game on a mobile device if you are going to carry a controller around with you?

Working?

Umm you don't have to, there's controls on the device too you know. Like tilt the device to drive a car and such.

Devin let me put it that way, it would be silly if you walked with your laptop in the bathroom to take a poop, it's like when my friend asked me how I got 3 stars in every angry birds level, one day I had food posioning and had to finish all my phone games. so yeah, phone gaming aka poop time gaming.
