Screenshot of one of the ports of the game(Android)[edit]

Is it relevant to add this? Kabelo Lesooana (talk) 06:16, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Kabelo Lesooana: What would the screenshot represent? – Rhain (he/him) 06:20, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Kabelo Lesooana: I believe that would violate both WP:NFCC#3a and #8. Images should be encyclopedic; that sounds mostly decorative. I'd recommend reading MOS:VG#Screenshots and WP:NFCC. – Rhain (he/him) 06:32, 27 December 2022 (UTC) this is in my watchlist; you don't need to ping me[reply]
@Rhain okay Thanks Kabelo Lesooana (talk) 06:36, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cancelled GameCube version[edit]

The current source sounds more like an analyst predicting a GameCube version was coming after PS2 exclusivity contract ended. Do we have any source that Rockstar actually ever announced or even internally ever intended to develop/release it on GameCube? Sergecross73 msg me 23:02, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm honestly not sure. The article mixes statements from CEO Jeffrey Lapin and analyst Michael Pachter. IGN seems to interpret this as objective truth. If you think this is only Pachter's opinion, I would leave it out entirely. IceWelder [] 18:58, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I just don't recall ever reading that it was actually in development or outright cancelled. It's true that these articles tend to mention it as some sort of inevitability. But I can't see where that assumption came from. Sergecross73 msg me 14:55, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

British English[edit]

Is there a reason that this article is written in British English, besides the original author perhaps being British? Rockstar Games is American, the game takes place essentially in Miami. Would it be rude or improper to give the article an American English rework? AxolotlFridge (talk) 07:30, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Per MOS:RETAIN, a rework would be inappropriate with consensus. The game is set in the U.S., but its developer is British, so I don't believe it has strong national ties to justify a change. Rhain (he/him) 07:34, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, interesting! Guess I didn't read the article well enough, haha. Didn't bother to check who the hell Rockstar North is and just assumed they'd be American like Rockstar Games.
Also, checked out your talk page. Insane job. Doing God's work. Well, maybe not God's, but still really cool. Thanks for bothering to respond to such a basic question. AxolotlFridge (talk) 09:30, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
