Game Informer's latest magazine has some new info on the gangs part of the game.

* The areas controlled by gangs are shown by their respective colour on the map. * Upon entering the area of another gang it will take a few gunshots to actually start a gang war

* Gang members will then appear in waves, and if you defeat all of the gang members, the area will change to the colour of the OGF on the map, green.

* You will defend your turf in the same way, members of the opposing gang will appear in waves and you will need to fight them all off.

* Attacks like these will probably happen at random times

Now the details most of you have been waiting for on how to actually recruit new members. It's really simple..

* First approach a pedestrian clad in OGF colours and press R1, this initiates the process.

* Using up or down on the D-pad you can choose whether to recruit them, if you recieve a gang symbol he is now yours to lead.

* To controll the new recruits is simple, just target them with R1, and you can choose to have them defend you, attack opponents or follow you with the D-Pad

Thanks to geep88 and GTAGaming

LOL, cool they can follow us around. And they better have brain. Not like in VC, once something is blocking them, they just keep running towards it lmao.

Yeah, i did that to a hooker before Downtown on Vice City Xbox. The hooker who wasn't in the PS2 version for some reason... I bumped her near the City Hall thing and she started running back and forth all over the place 'cause shes stupid.
