Amiga found in Grand Theft Auto.

Hi all,

I've come across an easteregg video of GTA San Andreas where there is a fictional console called
the 'CJD-500'

Here's the link of the video at the right time

'CJ' I believe is a main charecter in the GTA series.
Why this is an Amiga nod is:

It fuses two Amiga names together:
The Amiga CD32 and the Amiga 500.
The font styling is very similar to the CD32's.
DMA design started as an Amiga developer.
There is a Commodore 64 reference in GTA: Vice City (making this more authentic )

and the dead give away is.. the CD tray. It is identical to the CD32's

Very cool
I'm going to contact the guy running the channel and let him know, so that he can add a notification. He guesses that it is a reference to the Megadrive.

@Trewq

You can't actually play it? A small game in a game style. Played GTA until got stuck in the mountain race. A bug or just too much for me.. Had GTA:s in the old computer. Now they would run even better.

Payback was good too. Sad it doesn't run on an AmigaOne as even highend 060 PIV is a little sticky.

Payback works on an A1. IIRC you need the last update. What does it do on your system? 3d version lacks sound due to hardware banging.
