maxopower Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Just read that. I know it's T2 and all, but really... Will this influence the game in any kind. The only bad thing that could come out of this, was if Bobby Kotick would take over and make GTA an annual thing, though that doesn't seam so bad (or likely) at the moment.

QwertyAAA Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Ben Feder, an American of Persian-Iranian descent living in Houston, Texas, is taking an extended vacation to western Asia. He plans to change Iran by using violent protests and weapons to take over the Iranian government in 2023. The Islamic Republic has destroyed Iran and it's Persian culture by a lot, although it still remains. He plans to group to a squad with at least 20 members with FBI and military experience to have a easier opportunity to do this, they plan to make Iran a FREE country and ban the Koran. They plan to assassinate the president, the Supreme Leader, many clerics, Basij, and defenders of the Islamic Republic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, that would be a nightmare. The last thing that should happen in the video games industry, is Activision comes close to Take Two Interactive as Electronic Arts tried to back in 2008, but fortunately, things went very well.

Finn 7 five 11 Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 I didn't mean my comment as an insult, i meant it as, if the next guy is just as greedy, just as keen to make the company succeed further, then they will do fine. To be a CEO you have to be greedy otherwise your never gonna make the company money, and in this sense greed is good, it will drive the company to make more money from more games which are better.

Ash_735 Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 I can't decide if Strauss Zelnick taking over is good or bad, I love Strauss Zelnick, I find it funny how he's super into his fitness programs, working out, healthy eating, promoting a good breakfast, etc, and occasionally talks about games his company is doing, now THAT kind of attitude as CEO, he'll either steer Take 2 into the ground, or be soo laid back about his healthy lifestyle that he'll let the Devs run wild with what they want!

Ash_735 Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Hopefully Strauss tells Rockstar to release GTA V by April 2011 or he'll fire them YEAH, FIRE Rockstar, Disband Them, that will get us GTA quicker, ....with them unemployed, ...wait a minute, with Rockstar fired, wouldn't that mean an end to GTA all together as the studio was closed down due to a few impatient fans who spit their dummies out because it's been just over a year since the last GTA game.

JGJONES Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Hopefully Strauss tells Rockstar to release GTA V by April 2011 or he'll fire them Yes, it makes perfect sense to fire the creators of one of the most successful games in the world.

CryptReaperDorian Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Despite what people say, GTA is already annual. Whether it's a large release by R* North, a smaller release by a different R* studio, or a GTA ported to another console/PC a GTA is released just about every year. Last year we got three GTA installments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 I don't get you man. The reason people worried about it being an annual release is because of lack of potency in the game. We definitely had potent releases all last year. Annual GTAs that continually deliver would be a dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryptReaperDorian Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 I'm not talking only about GTAs that are the size of GTA IV or GTA SA. I'm talking about all GTA releases in general (full games, add-ons, ports). R* may not whore GTA like EA whores the Sims, but they still do like to release or re-release them quite a bit.

Now I don't know what he'll do, but hopefully he won't screw sh*t up, but I don't see that happening, or rather I hope I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
