I randomly got to that page like a month ago and tried the street view. It´s a nice thing they did but this dosn´t really need anybody. So it´s really just a fan thing.

Kick ass job guys. I feel sorry for people who need a reason to do cool stuff.

It's insane. They ought to integrate this into Google Maps.

I actually just picked up GTA IV and finished it to 100%, and was struck again by the incredible scale and life of liberty city. I think this is an awesome way to pay homage to what rockstar built. Hopefully GTA V can address some of the small flaws IV had, looking forward to it!

@gladspooky: Like what? What news, exactly, would you like them to report? It's fucking AUGUST, dude. THERE IS NO NEWS IN AUGUST. Nobody releases anything, there's no game announcements, nothing. None of the other sites have anything approaching news, not Kotaku, Joystiq, anything.

You just defended Giant Bomb by comparing it to Kotaku. Congratulations.

This is pretty awesome, I tip my hat to everyone involved. If this gets done on the PC version with one of those texture/skin conversion packs to convert the surroundings to an even more real world style look...wow!

Just saw the PAX panel.

Hey Patrick, sorry for being a dick. You're alright with me.

Very cool! Imaginative use of the street maps idea

LA Noire is coming out on PC? Awesome!

...yeah

#2 is Brucie from GTA4,

#3 is C.J. from San Andreas.

It's not the place, it's the people

I don't see CJ at all, could you make a screencap and point him out? I even looked 360 degrees. And what's so special about Brucie? I encountered some of the main characters in the city, so what, not really an easter egg or secret.

#3 is Luis Lopez from the Ballad of Gay Tony.

I don't get #1, though.

To all those people saying this is "completely pointless" by that logic all videogames, movies, music and books are pointless (money notwithstanding). You all play video games "wasting" your time with that activity, you have no right to look down on anybody because of their hobbies or interests.

I hate sandbox games . The only people I saw tearing up for them were kids.

Great work, great achievement. 

Amazing

Pretty pointless I suppose but still very cool!
