yesterday it was "only" the PC version..

That was a cancellation purported by a site that used false names and cited another site that didn't exist until after the article started doing the rounds (said source now hosts a fake "Hacked by 4chan" page), in what was clearly a last-ditch attempt to make the claims seem legitimate.

 

[Backfoggen]

2015 year of the everything. What problems could they have run into?

 

[J 0 E]

Not surprising.

 

[Jimrpg]

perfect.

I have too much of a backlog now anyway. Make it better rockstar!

 

[Sephiroth_GR_]

I guess Rockstar is not satisfied with 10 million PS4 and 5 million XB1 yet

 

[Sectorseven]

CEO from Take Two was on Mad Money last month and he said it was still on track

 

[grosvenor_92]

That's fine. I've waited this long to play it already, what's another couple months.

I don't mind waiting either as I have enough games to keep me busy for awhile

 

[Papytendo]

So the factual basis for this rumor is, because there is no set in stone date to release it, it must be delayed?

 

[Corleth the Fey]

My mate asked me a few weeks back, what else is going to change release date and possibly slip into 2015? There's only one game that could feasibly move now, I replied - GTA 5.

 

[OverturePT]

I was ready, Rockstar...

 

[Nemesis_]

I've heard mumurings that it was on track for a late October release date, but given the lack of promotion / screens / media I wouldn't be surprised if this were indeed true.

 

[Krusenstern]

Good. This means I have more money left for The Evil Within. Last game I'm getting this year.

Just make the game good, Rockstar. Polished games are worth the wait.

 

[Piggus]

yesterday it was "only" the PC version..

There isn't any good reason why it would "only" be the PC version considering similar the console architectures are to a PC architecture.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[mocoworm]

I think this is old..

I haven't seen any other major gaming sites say it's delayed till 2015.

 

[MadmanUK]

Gotta get that additional Xmas install base.

 

[friskykillface]

Figured this would happen , dat trailer date
Fuck. ;_;

Better be adding a ton more music stations, kept hearing the same songs , more hall & oates pleass

 

[MaximusPayne]

 

[JavaMind]

This is really sad... will take 4 years to see a real next gen gta :/

 

[The_Almighty_Swan]

I probably won't care about it when it comes out if this is the case. It would've been a nice game to hold us over till all the other awesome titles in 2015 come out.

 

[Cosmozone]

Take your time.

 

[Auto_aim1]

I guess Rockstar is not satisfied with 10 million PS4 and 5 million XB1 yet

Doesn't matter, the game has long legs. It'll keep on selling for an eternity.

I haven't seen any other major gaming sites say it's delayed till 2015.

VG247 is an awful site. I stopped visiting it a long time back.

 

[jacobeid]

Not surprised...

I guess we have enough to play this year already. Sucks for those who haven't played it yet though

 

[Some Nobody]

wasn't the point of this to fill a gap and make money because all the "real" next gen games got delayed til 2015?

Fiscal year is until March. They could release any time between now and then and be good.

 

[Creaking]

They were talking about "wanting to surpass expectations" with this version, not long ago. Sounds like the kind of talk that precedes a delay.

 

[Neil_J_UK]

Totally expected, and not too bothered. The end of this year is stacked for games anyway.

 

[VE3TRO]

Knew this would happen. Probably expect heists to be delayed along with it.

 

[Jb]

Considering how late in the year it is, that would make sense. I really wish they would release it alongside some new single player DLC, there are so many landmarks and vehicles they haven't used in the core campaign, I'd imagine they were saving them up for later.

 

[bishoptl]

Noooooooooooooo

Question: does any DLC purchased for old-gen under one's account carry over to the current-gen version? I've held off on buying any DLC precisely because I can't get a straight answer, and I'll be damned if I buy the same DLC twice.

 

[Sectorseven]

This would be the first year Rockstar has gone without a release in over a decade.

 

[Bgamer90]

Yep, I believe it. The recent statements from Rockstar ("...nothing but the best") makes me think so.

 

[PseudoViper]

2015 is looking mighty promising...

 

[shinobi602]

Kind of strange VG247 is the only place reporting on this chatter. Not a single other media outlet heard similar?

 

[Rosur]

Fall is too busy anyway guess they want something in winter now instead (so thinking Feb).

 

[BruiserBear]

The fact that they haven't said a word about it since E3 had me worried. Wouldn't be surprised to see a delay.

 

[Moze]

Delay rumors almost always turn out to be true tbh.

 

[CapitalismSucks DonkeyBalls]

2015 is gonna rip a 3-bedroom 2-bathroom double wide asshole in my wallet.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Oh for fuck sake

 

[Polk]

There isn't any good reason why it would "only" be the PC version considering similar the console architectures are to a PC architecture.

"Piracy" excuse.

 

[fade_]

Noooooooooooooo

Hopefully most the DLC is included regardless.

 

[JCX]

Evolve and GTA 5 delayed? Making more room for Destiny to take hold.

 

[Betty]

C'mon man, this is the only game I was getting on PS4 for the rest of the year. Don't be true.

 

[Bolts-n-Rays1109]

So online heists delayed to 2016?

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Noooooooooooooo

Seems pretty unlikely DLC would carry over. I guess it could, but it just doesn't seem at all likely. Won't this releasing include all the DLC anyway? It's not going to be budget release, can they really justify selling it at full price without including the DLC?

 

[braves01]

Well, that certainly doesn't help the light current gen fall lineups. 2015 scares me though.

 

[PSYGN]

Just release the damn game and focus on the next one

 

[PhatSaqs]

I definitely aint buying it if it comes out this year…

 

[ComputerMKII]

 

[Triggerhappytel]

This is the same website that expected Nintendo of Americo to hold a SmashDirect today; please.

There is no valid source yet other than "chatter from Gamescom"; the only thing that would speak for a 2015 release is Rockstar's current marketing output.

Yeah, I'm a bit sceptical about this too. It's not unusual for R* to be very quiet about a game pre-release before their marketing kicks in.

 

[RedSwirl]

If this happens, Smash is basically my last must-buy game for 2014.
