In a move that has surprised many, the GTA 3 demake, Grand Theftendo, which disappeared sometime in 2006, has recently resurfaced at Gamescom 2010 as Retro City Rampage, an 8-bit style homage to not only GTA but Metal Gear, Back to the Future, Contra, Bionic Commando, and many others!.  It is scheduled to be released later this year on Nintendo WiiWare.



About six months after the game disappeared, I started making a habit of searching Google for it every month or so.  The problem was that I was searching for "Grand Theft Tendo" (which will only turn up questions about the game), instead of  "Grand Theftendo" (the right spelling).  So how did fix my problem?  I'm recovering from multiple hernia surgeries, so I have an abundance of time.  During one of the more slow periods, I mistyped "Grand Theft Tendo", but the right way.  I feel like an idiot, but I'm stoked that the game is still around, and looking better than before.

Lol, funny story. I havnt even heard of the game, but it was still an amusing tale. Good luck with the healing, at least you'll have some spare time (hopefully) to play some games!!
 
Sorry to hear about your hernia. I've suffered one myself.
 
funny, a demake of GTA3 was already released in the form of Grand Theft Auto Advance.
 
@noiseredux:That was more of a port of the PS1 original then a remake, it is exactly the same as the Liberty City portion of GTA on PS1. I also found very little difference in graphics as well, as PS1 couldn't pump out the graphics anyway.
 
yeah I was half-kidding. GTA Advance is supposedly a prequel to GTA3... sort of a GTA 2.5 I guess. Haha. I do like it though.

So I'm an odd ball. So I am usually the last to post on a blog/forum. So I only post about weird games on weird platforms. So I have a strange relationship with commas and parenthesis. So what? Hey, at least you don't have to car pool with me to work, right? So have a heart, eat a blueberry, and don't forget to drop the empties in the box on the way out. I get deposit on those.
