I don't play much of Surreal's products, and will probably skip on this as well, but here we go.

There's an original game in the works up at Surreal's Seattle studio that's looking to put the sin back in Sin City. Prepare yourself for a different approach to the open-world game. This is Vegas takes the oft visited genre and fills it with everything Las Vegas is known for: gambling, parties, fast cars and scantily clad girls. All of that and you won't even have to take out a second mortgage on your house to foot the bill.

Doesn't look half bad, if they can pull off a GTA set in the real world. I obviously love GTA, Saint's Row wasn't bad and Just Cause even has a soft spot to call it's very own so one could say I am a sucker for free roaming city games. And one set in my favourite city in the world? Well.. sounds good to me.
 
Wow ... not a half bad developer and an intriguing concept. I'll keep an eye on it.
 
MOAR!

This is Vegas is an open-world game and so the outdoor areas are quite expansive --roughly on par with GTA III we're told. The catch is that all of the fun stuff happens indoors in Las Vegas. This is Vegas takes this to heart with massive indoor environments to explore. The casino gambling floors are there as well as clubs and a whole lot more. To get an idea on how big the game-world is, take a look at the interactive map that Midway put together below. Remember, each of the casinos can be explored inside and out.

I doubt these guys have a tenth of the budget of GTA, still always keep an open mind. The game that probably interests me more than this is Rockstar produced L.A. Noire by Team Bondi which looks like it's set in 40/50s James Ellroyish LA and in which you probably play a cop.

Mafia looking?


BTW, speaking of Mafia, I heard there was to be a Mafia 2, but can't seem to find anything on it.
Does anybody have info on the game?
 
Looks OK, since I'm a fan of free roaming games, I will be looking out for this. I just hope it won't turn out like Scarface which sucked a lot.
 
There are now many images on IGN including these two,
