Quite strange you didn't have any points Greengoop, but now you do! Indeed, you can visit USA and Mexico in RDR1.

In retrospect I was not paying attention to this.

As for the question now, I’m going to say a location in Europe. London maybe?

I mean, GTA and Westminster don’t look all that different, looking at at.

London is correct. There were rumors about a new game in Tokyo, but I think that's very unlikely to happen if you ask me...

I want to say Need For Speed, I'm expecting this to be wrong, but I remember Most Wanted had the ability to slow down time. Whether or not it was a pioneer in it I don't know.

It isn't correct, but kudos to you because that was a nice guess. iirc, Need for Speed introduced the bullet time for the first time in Most Wanted, and it's one of the classic examples of its introduction in videogames. However, someone did it first!

Oooh, this is way too generic a question! There are many things one can think of. What are the odds of me guessing what you had in mind? :P

I'm going to propose the following options:
  • Both are 3D games played largely in the 3rd person
  • They were both released at the end of October (R2 in 1999, GTA:SA in 2004 - the first PS2 release, other ports came later)
  • The early retail copies came with a physical manual and map
  • Worldwide retail versions included English, French, German, Italian and Spanish languages
  • dr_st (that is me) likes both games :mrgreen:

Well I’m not the quizmaster but I can tell you the odds are 100^infinity times better than the other answer. Speaking of which…

And you know Rayman Revolution is the best version how?

It’s the most complete version that isn’t a remake, and that fact is shared with GTA SA
