Motorcycles in GTA: VC!!!

It's true it's true.

From EGM:

Quote:

Going retro also gives developers a chance to change up the roster of vehicles in the game. Gone are the Viper and BMW inspired vehicles of Liberty City, replaced by everything from boxy economic sedans to extravagant sports cars. Bike lovers will be glad to know they can steal transportation of the two wheel persuasion

YES!

I tink most of us had reached this conclusion from the boxart, but woohoo anyways.

Well now you know it's true. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Alright, this'll be great!

... I wonder if bicycles are included too..

08-25-2002, 12:17 PM

Bicycles would be awesome...

Running down people on bikes would be cooler!

08-26-2002, 06:26 PM

But can you imagine how funny it would be to get in a head-on collision on a bycicle? I wonder if you'd even stay on it... Heck, I wonder if you'll be abe to get lobed off motor bikes..

It would be a nice alternative to walking/driving, for sure.

If you got shot while on a bike you'd take damage, as there wouldn't be any protection.

08-27-2002, 03:25 PM

But you could evade so much more easily. Cut between cars, swerve down a tight alley... and if it's anything like GTA1, the speed will be insane.

The speed was always the problem in GTA1, though. I always stole a Superbike, and as soon as I even grazed that gas button, I had either already crashed into another car, run over some pedestrian, or went flying into the ocean.

They could always make it fast, but easier to handle.

And when you think about it motor bikes would probably be more durable than cars. Smaller frame and all.

One thing I was wondering, if the speed is as insane as you say it may be, perhaps they should make it so you can dive off the bike should you be heading to trouble. I always though that would have been neat, being able to dive out of cars still in motion. Of course, you would have to take damage dependng on how fast you were going as you bailed.
