Yeap, too good to be true but oh so welcome it would be. OH SO WELCOME.Massa said:
Especially the part about the PC version. If it's better optimized than GTA4 then we already may have the best looking open world game ever on PC.

:lol @ these. oooook. Will be hyped if true but it looks much too "fanlisty" especially the 32 player console stuff. I'm pretty sure 16 in GTAIV was a miracle.
Will also be pissed if that spoiler if true

Just give me a city with stuff to DO! Fuck. IV felt so damn empty.

And on the sixth day the LORD David Bowie created man and woman in His image. And he saw that it was good. On the seventh day the LORD created videogames so that He might take the bloody day off for once.
Sounds a little too good to be true. Eh, not about to get myself hyped up over pie-in-the-sky rumors.
What was written would be sweet though.

Well you did see a new city name in the rumor right? And more of the current parts.Ilive1up said:

That's probably my biggest wish.TacticalFox88 said:Just give me a city with stuff to DO! Fuck. IV felt so damn empty.
Don't really care how much square-mileage the new city covers, I just hope there's a lot more side activities for me to engage in (compared to GTA IV).

Most of that list sounds like stuff that wouldn't be "leaked" for this reveal on wednesday or this far away from launch, unless they are planning to show a lot. Rockstar just doesn't seem to me like a company that would have all that in one announcement.Ignoring that and viewing this as a leak unrelated to wednesday, it just reads like a fan wishlist.Also I can't remember a 4chan leak thats been really accurate in recent memory, possibly that tgs stuff?

Eh, I'll leave the alleged details in the back of my head for now. Don't really believe them as they read as WAY too reactionary to GTA4's faults. But crazy shit has happened, and I would sure love to visit San Andreas again. Just wish the first game could run on my horrid fucking laptop.

Hmm, my bet is on Los Venturas.

I do too but is Rockstar even capable of moving to a new location when it's probably easier just to revisit old ones for the nth time?dreamfall said:

I remember when I thought that in GTAIV, Rockstar had set us up to like badass Niko and how at some point relatively early in the game he would end up getting killed trying to free Roman from all his trouble, and you would then have to instead play as the weakling Roman instead; you would have played as a weak character who ends up becoming more badass, rather than taking the usual route.

I'm not sure this is derailing the thread, but I was wondering why we have an obsession with graphics and presentation of a realistic enviroment in the gaming industry. Games that are in an open environment, a la sandbox, I wished had more believable AI. It could look like San Andreas for all I care if instead of just pushing a more visually realistic world, we create a more self aware one. That and 60fps!

You know, this has been bothering my for awhile. You know in that movie 'Click' with Adam Sandler? Sure it's a complete POS, err going into spoilers if anyone ACTUALLY cares
at the end, when he kinda like realises how he has ignored his all life, why doesn't he just rewind? I mean Jesus, if the thing can forward, it can damn well rewind.
Now that it's off my chest, can't wait myself. The reveal trailer for IV was really awesome, didn't they use a Philip Glass Soundtrack?

All I remember from that movie is Kate Beckinsale being ridiculously hot (and that slo-mo jogger).
And yeah they used Pruit Igoe from Koyaanisqatsi.

October 2012 although I could see them delaying to Spring again.jackrubyn said:
Production began in 2009 according to Houser, although it was probably a little sooner.
Yep, that trailer was incredible. Unfortunately the game didn't turn out as sweet as that trailer (also funny how they removed tons of features from that trailer).Twinduct said:

Speaking of leaks, how credible was that source with the leaked LA casting stuff?

I really hope they go back to the lighter tone of San Andreas (as in have some goofy fun stuff like the jetpack and stuff like that) and include stuff like Bigfoot to find in the world.Zombie James said:

Rockstar, especially North, cannot do wrong in my book. Even though my expectations were unrealistically high for GTAIV, I still very much enjoyed the game and it's still easily top five of this generation for me. I loved RDR greatly too, but it really only served to make me anticipate what the guys at Rockstar North were doing next with GTA even more.
Honestly I'm not worried about the locale, the story, the cast, and just the overall world/culture of GTAV. I'd prefer if it was another timepiece like San Andreas or Vice City, as I feel that's what works the best for these games personally. While I thought GTAIV was great, I thought the nostalgic tinge of SA and VC worked out better and I hope that GTAV follows in there footsteps, but am indifferent either way.
What I really want to see is an improvement in the on-foot systems/combat. I seem to remember leading up to GTAIV's release, previews were mentioning Niko doing free running and climbing type things, sort of similar to the Assassins Creed games. I'm not sure if those mechanics were cut or scaled back, or if it was just the previewers over-hyping on things that weren't actually in the game. If they make the character control more fluidly with the ability to scale buildings like inFamous/Assassins Creed, and take cover more easily like Uncharted/Gears, while refining the aiming mechanism, then I'll be seriously excited.
Other than on foot stuff, I'd like to see some slight tweaks and improvements to the vehicle system from IV. Make helicopters easier to fly and just improve on the already great base, and I'll be happy. I'd also like to see more things to do, spend money on, side quests, et cetera to fill out the game.
Basically, if GTAV is an expanded GTAIV timepiece with a larger world and some tweaks to the core system, then I'll be very happy.
Bring on Wednesday.

Different strokes.
People seem disappointed that it wasn't an over-the-top cartoon in the vein of San Andreas (or Gay Tony), but I liked the grounded, gritty take on the sandbox genre, centered by a legitimately human tale.
I loved it for all the same reasons I loved Red Dead Redemption.
A whole slew of gameplay systems that come together around a captivating core narrative and optional quests that reinforce the notion of a living, breathing world.
I think the most exciting thing about GTA V for me is that:
1) They know the current gen tech now, they've mastered it and aren't limited by lack of knowledge/know how
2) They nailed GTA IV in a huge number of aspects, the only problem (for me) of it being too serious seems like something they could fix relatively easily
3) By release time they'll have had 4 years of time since GTA IV came out, but they'll have been developing it for at least 2 years before that as a side project (with a lower number of staff as crunch time for IV came), so they've had 6 years total time, with a devkit that they know like the back of their hand, and of course never-ending amounts of money (money put into GTA = multiplied profit, everyone knows this, a GTA game will never bomb)
4) They also nailed RDR, and while it's different to GTA, there's a lot they'll have learnt from it
5) They have their own in-house RAGE studio so there should be fewer bugs this time

This excites me the most. The jump from VC to SA was amazing and according to Rockstar, that was their "test" for SA.Meadows said:
Apparently they didn't even have the city picked in 09.Meadows said:
So I'd say probably around 3 years dev time.
