As announced today, Rockstar is introducing Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas for Xbox in the third quarter of fiscal 2005, along with a simultaneous release of the PC version of the title.

Additional products planned for fiscal 2005 from Rockstar include a new console title based on a proven brand from Rockstar's internal studios, titles based on two of Rockstar's premier brands for Sony's highly anticipated PlayStation®Portable platform (PSP(TM)) and the release of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas in Japan.

Personally, I think Sony could be doing more to keep the series exclusive, and I think it might even be hurting them.  I think casual consumers are beginning to beleive that the Xbox version of anything will always be superior, and I know at least one person who will probably buy this game for Xbox, but hasn't touched it on PS2.
That's my opinion, not yours.

And PC... don't forget PC.

Oh, right, they're the same thing.

Yeah, anybody that regularly reads the head-to-head game reviews on IGN would wait for the XBox version of all major releases.  Every single one has the XBox first (best graphics, sound, and online play), then GameCube (same graphics as XBox, sound a little worse, no online play), then PS2 (worst graphics of the three, good sound, has online play).  It's always the same.  This is exactly why I haven't bought Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time for GameCube...I have an XBox, so if there's going to be a platform that I buy it on it's going to be that.

And they're usually right

But, yeah, most predictable news story this year. I wonder if they can't push it back and create a super special edition on a next gen system, though, if they aren't gonna have a new GTA ready by then? Hell, I'd buy that.
