Y2K finally strikes, crushes Grand Theft Auto 2 fans' dreams
Those who spent New Year's Eve, 1999 holed up in a bunker beneath their house, eating astronaut food while your superterranean contemporaries amused themselves with the ramblings of Dick Clark and the chonologically appropriate jams of Will Smith probably felt pretty silly when, you know, the world didn't end. Perhaps a technical snafu on Rockstar's website will slightly justify these worryworts' absence from the centennial shenanigans.The snafu in question was an apparent countdown for Grand Theft Auto 2, leading many to believe the PS1 classic would soon be heading to XBLA and PSN Stores near you. Unfortunately, a quick check of the page's source code reveals that the timer was created in 1999, and that certain parameters have caused the countdown to malfunction in the 21st century. Rockstar confirmed that they have no plans to port the title, but reluctantly admitted that the countdown timer has become self-aware, and that today is, in fact, Judgment Day.
OPM Rumour mill: GTA I/II, Street Fighter Alpha, Splinter Cell Conviction coming to PS3
The latest issue of the British mag, Official PlayStation Magazine, contains a few tasty rumours about upcoming games that might see release on the PS3. First, it states that Grand Theft Auto I and II will be heading to the PSN Store in order to quench peoples' thirsts for GTA before the fourth chapter is released. That means we can expect to see them before April. Hopefully.Another game set to appear on the PSN Store is Street Fighter Alpha. To be honest, we're wondering why when Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix is due out at some point this year. This is probably Capcom's way of telling us that it won't be out for a while yet. Finally, Splinter Cell Conviction is reckoned to be heading to the PS3 at some point, according to UK high street retailer GAME. Sounds good to us, we're always happy to welcome more games onto our favourite system. So how do these rumours make you feel, commenters?
