I just want it to be out now. I've been waiting so long that as soon as we get a taste of it in the trailers my anticipation will just go through the roof. It's depressing we're at least a year away from playing it :(

So tempted to go back to GTA 4. Again.

I am always down for some GTA 4. I have been playing a ton of MP before Battlefield 3 came out.

Saving the children from the molesters.

I can see the headlines now.

You start off as a priest, doing evil deeds for the Catholic Church. Then as you go down your life of crime, you realize the error of their ways (aka you find out that the Pope, who has been giving you jobs, was the one that molested you as a child), so you get banned (and nearly killed) from Vatican City when you out the Pope, and begin work with an underground movement against the Catholic Church. It ends with giant shootout with the Pope after you skydive from a helicopter directly onto the balcony where he is giving a public appearance.

come in my shame circle
No clue why I'm so hyped for this. I enjoy the GTA games but always peter out. I never finished Vice City or San Andreas, and skipped GTA 4...but I'm hyped for this one for some reason.

If it's not a previous city, my guess is Carson City. It's been mentioned many times throughout the GTAs.
That's also the setting for Rockstar's Manhunt. The mayor is mentioned on the radio in GTA III.

If they are doing San Andreas area again they could include that.

Alright. I'm booking it out of this thread. Don't want to get spoiled if something leaks lol. BTW, I didn't read the post from reddit since I don't believe it.
 
Regardless of where, I'd like to see it as a multple location game again, or at least give me some open country to run in. After RDR, I see no reason there can't be a farm with a horse to steal. Please let me rob a bank with a horse and get chase by a cop on a motor cycle. It's the close thing to a game about 'The Three' we'll ever get.

For nostalgia purposes, I've been looking back and reading the old thread on here from when the GTA IV trailer launched. Hilarious to see the manic meltdown when the R* site crashed and everyone was scrambling to d/l the trailer.

That was an awesome night. the trailer went live and R* site would not load,youtube was stalling, I remember someone got it up on a private server and i DL'ed it from there.

Then some people were shocked as they thought they would be playing as a muslim. haha

You just wrote the script of the best game ever.

Man just the idea that this game could've taken place in Washington D.C. has killed a lot of my enthusiasm for the reveal.


why the fuck not? DC would be a great location as they would work in Baltimore as well.

BioShock Infinite is like playing some homeless guy's vivid imagination
I long for the day of a Breaking Bad/No Country for Old Men-influenced Grand Theft Auto game.

I actually didn't know that. Kind of cool how they blended two games together through useless radio chatter.

My post is worded poorly. I meant to say that just thinking about the possibility that the game could have taken place in DC has killed my enthusiasm for a game set in Vegas or a San Andreas remake. I want a new city. I would actually prefer New Orleans over any other city, but D.C. would be great too.
 
I just hope there are multiple cities like in SA. I don't care if they even reuse Liberty City.

If they go the DC route than they can use

Liberty City
Vice City
DC

Or

Vice City
DC
Carson City

Or they can just do another SA. Either way I want more than 1 city in this one.

I'm genuinely impressed that the full details about the GTA5 launch haven't already leaked. R* runs a pretty tight ship.

i've been begging for over 5 years.
I'm trying to remember the GTA IV reveal trailer was it CGI and bullshots or some actual game footage?

It might be because people used to spam that gif in threads.

Apologies for Off-topicness:
So, is the only way to know if a GIF is banned to have been there when the announcement was made? The "banned memes" post in the FAQ board mention a couple ("NEAT," for instance), but that F5 one isn't mentioned. There's one with a guy holding a controller with the caption "FUU**" and a bunch of blinking and shaking and stuff which is apparently banned, but there's no evidence of that in any go-to resource that I can see. Neither are several other GIFs I've seen posted only later to be told by other members "Oh yeah, that GIF was banned." How is everyone else supposed to know these things?
 
Nothing yet? I'm without power in Massachusetts from that snow storm... quickly plugged in at work.
*edit*

Totally forgot today is November 1st. Feel like I'm in the 4th century with no electricity.

You're just supposed to know, I guess.
Besides, what fun is it being a mod when you can't ban posters for things they didn't know are banned and aren't listed as being banned anywhere on the site?
 
Carson City?

Carcer City is loosely based on Philly so yeah, I don't see that being attached to California. =P

There's also mention of "Capital City" in IV.

I just can't wait to see how Rockstar will own doubters and nay sayers. Their first game on this gen consoles was quite an achievement, on new hardware and new engine. This one will blow our minds, visually and content wise. I'm predicting 99 metacritic and highest scoring game of all time.
Table Tennis?

I can write the details in a letter to you and send it to your base's P.O. Box if you want. PM me your contact if you're interested.

NICE.

I hope for more of the same. Nothing frustrates me more than hyped up CGI trailers.
Ever since GTA III, I can't remember Rockstar using CGI stuff. They love putting that "made entirely with in-game footage" at the end of their trailers.

* According to Dan Houser, VP of Creative for Rockstar Games, they haven't yet figured out if GTA IV is going to spark off another set of GTA games connected to it, and they're currently just focusing on this single game. He does say he "would have a certain confidence" setting GTA outside the United States, such as England in the future.

Just a little quote I found in the GTA4 thread linked earlier, from an interview in OPM Australia.

Made by Rockstar San Diego, not Rockstar North.

They share knowledge between the studios, but it's not the same as having an entire team working on their very own game.
