10 years late, sound about right

While I won't doubt that current hardware can play this game on a Android or iOS
I do wonder how the controls will work out to a acceptable level.

Pretty sick that phones have actually matched and are surpassing PS2 era graphics.

That's definitely going to be an issue. There's no point in getting the game if you won't be able to control it properly.
Ps3 controllers are Bluetooth, maybe they can make it so you can use one of those.

Good, no more Gameloft crap

I'm sure Rockstar has thought this all out and have a solid control scheme in place. I can't see them releasing GTA3 and Max Payne on mobile without having worked out a good control setup

Before anyone says "Y NO SUPPORT XPERIA PLAY (PLAYSTATION PHONE)?!!!!"
With a low end single core snapdragon SoC and adreno 205 gpu ,that phone lacks the processing power to run a game like this.
Sorry, had to say that, been reading alot of comments like the above on different sites.
Now, remember sony saying dual core doesn't matter? lol

I'm glad R* is adopting for dual core phones, instead of dumbing down their games for low end phones *cough* EA, Gameloft *cough*

Totally agree with you on that. Xperia Play couldn't handle these games with the hardware it's packing. It was always my major beef with that device. The concept of a mobile device dedicated to mobile gaming that doesn't pack some high-end hardware boggles my mind.

Would prefer GTA 2.

Duke Nukem 3D is coming to Android

 

[gm0n3y]

That game is 10 years old? Man I feel old now.

 

[FlyPonix]

It makes me sad i can't play this on my Sony Ericsson, but I still won't give it up because i love my snes emulator!!!

This will be awesome on the Android Tablet since you can use the PS3 controller or any of the Wii controllers via Bluetooth. Too bad you wont be able to use a controller or play it on the iPad 2 or iPhone 4S since it only has 512mb of ram. It will most likely be a downgrade for iOS.

I always like to joke that my iPhone contains more power than the entire room of mainframes that were in the Matthew Broderick film "Wargame". :lol:

 

[sonofliberty08]

so when can we play CS with the old time comrade on the phone ?

 

[Guest]

The game is 10 years old, at that time I was sporting a P3 750mhz and 384mb ram. Current 1ghz phones should be able to run this game, especially the Play, but I think this is more of an Nvidia ploy to only release the game on Tegra 2 devices. I think it will be released on more android (and probably even iphone 4) later on.

Why is the HTC Sensation not on that list?
