That was going to be a brewed game and not an actual Rockstar sponsored game. There were some pictures that were released, but as far as I know, the project is dead.

I'm shocked at how long people believed it for... i mean, the gta3 source code isn't publicly available... they were what, writing it from scratch?

it took a team of professional coders probably a year to make the official game, but some guy who nobody has ever heard of is developing this by himself, with no 3d engine... take a look at what has been acheived in homebrew so far for the dc... although much is impressive, i think you'll all see this was nonsense.... and the one dodgy 3d render they came up with was made up of 3d models widely available for free online.

I downloaded Quake 2 homebrew for Dreamcast, and it looks like the software mode version of the PC game, and it plays great.

SBI or Plain Files, tutorials are all over for burning these. You'll need full or demo pak files to go with this.

chile,

the source code for gta3 is still very alive and well in their current product line (aka: san andreas). Until they move onto a brand new engine, its impossible to believe they would do it.

Also, even WHEN they go to a new engine, its a rare company (ike iD) who gives their engine source away for free.

The only reason wolf3d, doom, quake and quake2 run on DC is because iD gave us the source on a silver platter. Rockstar will probably never do that.
