Grand Theft Auto V Thread

[The G.O.D II]

Grand Theft Auto V will sell more at launch than Grand Theft Auto IV managed in its first year on shelves, according to one analyst. Sterne Agee's Arvind Bhatia today released a note to investors, saying he expects the game to debut in the first three months of 2013, posting sales of 14 million copies.
Bhatia said the GTAV launch should bring in about $700 million in revenue for Take-Two, which said it expected just over $1 billion for Rockstar products this fiscal year. With Max Payne 3 the only announced Rockstar title to launch this year, Bhatia believes it "is all but a given" that the publisher is planning to launch GTAV before the March 31, 2013, end of its fiscal year.

For perspective on just how big the game is for the publisher, Take-Two's previous fiscal year saw total revenues of $825.8 million. The publisher has projected this year's sales to hit $1.75 billion to $1.85 billion. That uptick has led to widespread agreement from analysts that GTAV will launch in Take-Two's current fiscal year.

GTAIV debuted in April of 2008 and shipped 13 million before the end of March 2009. The game enjoyed sales over a prolonged stretch of time, as two years later, Take-Two said shipments had reached nearly 20 million.

They need to just tack max payne 3's fighting engine into this game.

I'm looking forward and waiting for this game, the only problem I have is that if this game takes place in 2012 the soundtrack is gonna be asscheeks... that was the main issue I had with GTA IV was the subpar music. One of the things that makes this series fun is the soundtrack that plays when I do missions and they done a tremendous job picking the right music for GTA3, Vice City and San Andreas. GTAIV had a ton of current wack nikkas that took away a lot of the aubiance of the gameplay. With GTAV being back in Los Santos something tells me they gonna have some wack ass nikkas like dem Odd Future goons and other current wack nikkas playing on the radio and I'm not looking forward to that... that's just my two cents.

believe it or not i'm not hyped for this

GTA4's shooting and cover mechanics were dated as hell....GTA hasn't really changed in that department since GTA3 on PS2


If GTA5 atleast has shooting/cover mechanics similar to that found in Mafia II then I might be a little bit interested

Graphically GTA is still behind every other open world game also....... GTA4 is one of the worse looking games on both the 360 and PS3

Blame New York

I believe that's fake if I'm not mistaken.

It's got to be. I recall them saying the story was taking place strictly in Los Santos, not across the state of San Andreas. Besides...what black man names their son Leo?

They are going to have the countryside like in San Andreas. I don't think San Fierro will be in it. But the main character in the trailer was an older, middle age white man who's apparently a transplant from another city. That doesn't go along with that story of some 20 year kid.

 

[Bathing Ape]

La noire's face tech would be too much. Already 3 disc on the 360, so imagine trying to put it in GTA 5 unless they make it in a update or something similar to battlefield 3's hd thingy

 

[Brock Landers]

I'm talking the day/week off when this comes out breh...been waiting since '08 for this Also an older Tommy Vercetti is the protagonist brehs.

Yeah, I'm positive R* stated Los Santos is the only city. That story didn't look legit in the least lol

Well that fukking sucks! How u gon give us San Andreas again without San Fierro & Las Venturas? I need some more info on this, I refuse to believe that shyt.
