Im looking forward to Playback and Radio Los Santos (RLS). It looks like Playback is gonna be eastcoast rap while Radio Los Santos is gonna be westcoast rap. For this game imma stick to RLS cuz itll problably have some bumpin joints to hit up in a lowrider.

- The best radio station is my mp3 player.
Rockstar Games updated the official Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas site with information on the ten radio stations in the game, as well as a teaser on the music set to be included. The Web site offers a car stereo interface that features clickable buttons that correspond to each station. Clicking the button will call up information on the station such as DJ and its format, and stream a short audio clip that includes the DJ's voice and a snippet of music.
The first station is Master Sounds, a classics station, helmed by Johnny "The Love Giant" Parkinson, that features a clip of "The Payback" from soul legend James Brown. The second station is Playback, a hip hop station led by Forth Right MC which plays "Children's Story" by Slick Rick. Bounce FM, whose playlist draws on all manner of funk, chosen by DJ The Funkitpus, is the third station. "Funky Worm" from the Ohio Players serves as clip for the station.

Much of the software shown there appeared to be very incomplete, with some analysts pegging most the titles on display at around 60 to 75 per cent completion - suggesting that they may not be ready until next year, thus missing the planned Q4 2004 launch of the device.
Kawanishi also confirmed that development of the PlayStation Portable began directly before the system was announced at E3 2003, meaning that the console has been developed in only 18 months - an ambitious timetable which would go some way towards explaining why developers are having difficulty preparing titles in time for launch.
In the same interview, Kawanishi explained a little more of the planned functionality for the device - which will appear as an external drive when connected to a PC with a USB cable, allowing users to drag and drop MP3 or ATRAC3 music files and JPEG images directly onto it.
