If they will create a new GTA for Android, I think will be unpublished, a special version. And they will start of zero, maybe based in a existent GTA.

GTA IV WILL be ported one day... but not on current-gen smartphones. Maybe in the next 2 years, it is a possibility! By then smartphones will be powerful enough to handle GTA 4 type games. Look how fast development has come in the last 3 years.

Maybe GTA IV in 10 years anniversary (I dont know what year) and GTA V in 2023. When it come, maybe all GTAs released for PC, PS4, Xbox One, etc will be released for Android too. Maybe the smarphone hardware be as the moderns PCs.

no doubt developement has come a long way but a pc gpu/cpu is about five times faster than mobiles devices. Say gt5 needs a dual core 2.3ghz plus.. on mobile devices we would probably need dual core 8ghz plus to run on android.. unles they make better cpus/gpus as strong as pcs.

If they did, batterys would be flat in 5 mins..if they manage to port a watered down for ps vita it may be possible as vita has mobile components ie arm arcitecture etc.

like guilhemeGS2 said maybe 10 years or so..maybe.

They may port ps vita version if one is released..

Changing the subject a little. I do not know much about emulation, but I think one of the biggest difficulties is trying to simulate the CPU and GPU in a console. Well, the PS Vita has the same hardware of Android, it would not be possible when the phones are more powerful there an emulator that uses the hardware of the phone itself only with some adaptations? I know that even with the same processor, they may work differently, but already a great shortcut in emulation.

stodag · 07-20-2013, 12:04 PM

yep.. but that is emulation, im talkin about a strieght port from rockstar.. like gta vice city runs very well on 1ghz androids but if you was to emulate this instead of a company port, it would require a lot more resources.

**GuilhermeGS2** · 07-20-2013, 12:22 PM

OK. In this year, the Android games are better than before. And the companies are making games to PS Vita, maybe they become familiar with the architecture and make better games for Android, and other games companies may come to Android too.

yeah, we need better quality games.

ps vita is a good benchmark for ports to android imo.

More and more retro games are being re-released on iOS & Android, due to popularity for emulation. Hope more and more classics get ported.. then i don't need emulators. I will happily purchase any retro game i like. Rockstar are doing a great job, so is SEGA. Hope to see more..

please sega port shenmue 1/2.. i will be happy with that.

And gran turismo 4 Smile

**GuilhermeGS2** · 07-20-2013, 06:36 PM

Port also NFS Underground 2, Most Wanted, GTA SA, Hitman 2, Medal of Honor Rising Sun and Vanguard and other nice games.

Why do you people think SEGA did superb job in these half-decade while they almost entirely neglecting us gaijin gamers for almost half decade (no Yakuza 5 english, Valkyiria Chronicles 3 english, etc)?

No. They will never do that.

Dream on. Sony won't port their game to anything non-Sony. Not even smartphone.

Not everything's possible in this damned world you know.

Dream on. Just dream on. You'd better watch EA turn those mentioned games into pay2win browser games.

I see so many delusional arguments in here. Try to do some goddamn research first, 'k?

**GuilhermeGS2** · 07-20-2013, 10:54 PM

The way is wait the emulators, so. Sad
