I got my hands on a book of sorts this week that I thought some of you out there might like. Back in 2005, Rockstar sent out two books for Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories and The Warriors to store managers to promote the games. The books have scans of different magazines of the time talking about the game. I was only able to score the book for Liberty City Stories. I've scanned the book and put them into a PDF for easy reading. I don't have any of the DVD's referenced in the letter. When I get some time I may re-scan the book in better quality.

As I was looking around on GameStop's website today, I came across two Grand Theft Auto bundle packs that have yet to be announced by Rockstar. One pack for the PC is exactly like the trilogy packs released for the PS2 and Xbox consoles. It includes GTAIII, Vice City and San Andreas. We're not sure at the moment if the games have been patched to correctly work on newer OSes. (Personally, I don't have a problem with the games on Vista but some have reported various problems) The other pack for the PlayStation 2 includes both Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories. Both bundles will retail for $30. The PC pack releases on 30th of this month and the Stories pack releases on the 23rd.

EDIT: The US store was just updated and it doesn't seem to include the games.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories are still high in the UK charts this week, and from the looks of it they both have been for several months now, coming in at 1st and 2nd place respectively.

Seems like a familiar sight doesn't it? Probably because they have been taking the 1st and 2nd places for several months now, non-stop, so congrats Rockstar North on a terrific job. If you didn't think the portables were a success before, you should now.
