Rockstar Updates Old GTA San Andreas Site

An old viral website for GTA: San Andreas has been updated by Rockstar, leading to speculation that viral marketing for GTA V could be about to begin.

The Epsilon program site has been live since GTA: San Andreas launched back in 2004, but hasn't seen any updates in years. Checking the site today reveals the same promises of power for money it's always had, alongside a Twitter feed that wasn't there before July 24.

Only two tweets have been sent so far, one on July 25 and the other on July 30. The first reads "We as a people have consistently got things backwards. #KIFFLOM", while the second says "Seeking without paying is not living, it is living on the cheap. #KIFFLOM".

Checking out the other viral sites registered back when San Andreas released shows that none of them have been updated, though www.westcoastraplegends.com now sends you straight through to Rockstar's main site.

Despite Take Two yesterday refusing to be drawn on a release date for the game, they did say that "substantial progress" was being made. If the marketing machine is starting to fire up, then hopefully we won't have too long to go before more concrete launch details appear.

Thanks, OPM.
