New GTA!

[jag87]

Take-Two have announced that the next GTA title will be ready at the end of Q4, 2004. Speaking at a conference in New York, T2's Executive VP, Cindi Buckwalter, announced that the game is expected in "in the back half of 2004, Q4." She decided however, not to put rumours to rest and didn't announce any title. Several Internet fan sites claim that the follow-up to GTA 3 and GTA:VC, will have a Las Vegas or LA theme.

Officially Take-Two are not too eager to comment since they have their hands full with the upcoming, and very promising, Manhunt, expected November 19, 2003. If T2 do as good a job in keeping this new project under wraps as they did with Manhunt, it is likely that we will know very little about it until late Q4, 2004.

In order to keep everyone interested until then however, Rockstar is planning a GTA 3 and GTA:VC Double Pack which will not only keep PS2 and PC users happy but which is expected, in November, to open up a new GTA market, that of the XBox.

Great news! Can't wait.

 

[asher b]

The title will be GTA San Andreas

Remember the first gta game, the map with 3 cities?

Liberty City (gta3)

Vice City (duh vice city)

and - you guessed it

San andreas

Cant wait either manhunt will have to quench my thirst in the meantime

 

[Mambo]

Can't wait. Hope they get the fighting system better this time.

Just think how massive it'll be, Vice City came out 1 year after GTA3 and look how big it was. Now with this one they'll have had two years developing time on it.

They've got a particularly clever marketing team at take-two. The way they give no information and letting rumours fly around for ages, then they let out something related to the new game which just builds up the excitement. Like kentpaul.com and the Vice City postcards last year.

Bring on San Andreas...

 

[Definitely Maybe]

I have to say though, I thought Vice City was shit.

GTA3 was amazing, though.

Vice City was deep and involving, an amazing step up from GTA3. I can't even go back to GTA3 now, after finishing Vice City. If anyone says the problem with it is the fact the game is set in the 80s, that's just crap and they know it. The atmosphere suits the game superbly and I wouldn't have it any other way.

San Andreas sounds too predictable for me. R* have always been one to surprise so I'm expecting something else.

As for feeding the thirst, True Crime looks quite good and has had some very encouraging reviews which is a surprise since it's latest demo was abysmal.
