With our feature regarding 2 Days to Vegas still fresh in our heads, we seriously did a double take when we heard about this game. Yet another open world title regarding Las Vegas, simply titled ‘This is Vegas,’ is in development at Surreal's Seattle studio.
With an egomaniacal madman trying to make Vegas more family friendly, you're on a mission to protect the true heart and soul of this iconic city. It finally seems that what happens in Vegas, won't stay in Vegas via the game’s satire-filled take on the city. Expect to see sex, violence, gambling, and plenty of slick cars.
The title, published by Midway, is aiming for a release on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC this coming fall. The game is expected to be rated M for Mature -- we could never ponder why that might be.
More on this upcoming sandbox title set in Sin City soon.

wow lots of people trying to get a peice of the GTA style pie. Fine with me but i get the feeling that none of these will mach up to the giant that is GTA
This is not a GTA clone lol its something new, Sandbox was NOT invented by gta! not that i dont love GTA but it needs to atleast have a half decent story to it! and thats what i think GTA lacks.
Im still buying it though :) lol
GTA clone? What are you talking about netherdragon.. you dont even know how it plays out yet.
this game sounds kinda dumb i mean the premis just sounds like a ow budget movie
GTA was supposed to be next true gaming experience from Rockstar graphic wise but yet its only 720p, up u rockstar I recon 2 days to vegas and this one are creepers and u think ur the best, I used to envy them!
psn id: gingo... i think they made a smart move not releasing this around the same time as GTA because sales would have bombed
What's people's obsession with Vegas?
Hmm...seems different, and might be good, but I'll wait for the reviews
well it seems Las Vegas is a hot spot to develop background scenery
Cool. We need more good sandbox games. And This is Vegas seems pretty cool. It differs from GTA, so imo it is no clone. And a good story/setting hurts no one ;-)
