There's a GTA: Vice City mod that's been trying to do something like that for many, many years.

This is amazing! I guess limiting the destination times makes sense. I was envisioning something like Majora's Mask where time would progress at an accelerated rate, and then you'd use the time travel mechanic to hop around.

This would mean that if you wanted to, you could age naturally from 1955 to 1985 if you wanted to, although it'd take a really long amount of time. This would require having more assets and time periods which didn't happen in the movies, but could open up more storylines.

I guess this would mean you'd need to also manage the age of your character, since you couldn't go to 1885 and live until 2015.
