jf6293 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Do you think GTAV will stay on the "big" consoles? (Xbox, PS3, and computers) or will they release a handheld (PSP, maybe DS/iPhone) version also? I think that if the PSP2 is like the rumors, that it can handle most of GTAV, at least much more than chinatown wars was Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/467883-gta-5-consoles/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emm Ell Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Haven't used a handheld in years, so I hope they concentrate on the 'Big 3', then work on the 'littluns' Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/467883-gta-5-consoles/#findComment-1060302590 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhistleBlower Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Pretty sure they'll stick with the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC for now, simply because that's been their target demographic for years. Also, taking into consideration that the PSP2 is rumored to be as powerful as the PS3 it just means it'll take just as long to develop for, and it's new hardware. So, realistically-speaking, if they do decide to develop another GTA title for handheld devices it won't be for another couple years. Remember that they're also busy with Agent, Max Payne 3, and Bully 2.

TommyMufc-Champs Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 No they will release GTA V on the big consoles not handheld. However they will release a game on the handheld but not a GTA V version.

DX2069 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 i think that GTA should have stayed sony exclusive and if it was then GTAIV would have been much better and V should go back to being only on PS3. blu-ray disks can hold alot more than a DVD and with more space comes more game and more content Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/467883-gta-5-consoles/#findComment-1060302887 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirWolf856 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I hope they do a PC version but it will probably be a port.

Oh har har. Glad to see I'm getting noticed. No, he's right that Blu-ray can hold more, and thus a PS3-exclusive version would have had the potential for more content. But looking at how people act with just a 2-4 year window since the last console GTA, the potential would likely have to go unused, or people would end up forgetting GTA all together. (Think more like 8 years to fill the potential in a fully compressed Blu-ray GTA. On topic though: If history is to repeat itself, there will be a console GTA V and then a side story set in the same city on PSP2 and 3DS. That is, assuming the next game is GTA V of course.

silentsharklol Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 They released Chinatown wars on handheld consoles not too long ago so I doubt they would release GTA 5 on hanheld consoles.

WhistleBlower Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) they're also busy with Agent, Max Payne 3, and Bully 2. Wait, what? when did they say that? anyways, I bet they'll release a couple of hand held ones after GTAV. Agent and Max Payne 3 have been in development for roughly 6 years or so, if I'm not mistaken. As for Bully 2, I think it was the music composer who scored the original Bully that confirmed a while ago that he was working on the music for the sequel via a message left on Twitter. In any case, I don't expect an official announcement on GTA V until Agent is out on store shelves. I say this because Max Payne has already established itself as a popular brand amongst gamers while Agent itself is fairly new to the mix.

Capricornus Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I reckon that R* with continue to stick with the consoles and PC versions of the game. Hell, they could just pull an EA and release their games for every gaming device that is in existence. The more money the better right?

Hell, they could just pull an EA and release their games for every gaming device that is in existence. The more money the better right? Well, if you ask me, I'd rather have quality over quantity. But I guess if there is enough demand for other platforms then it's possible. But I'd also like to think they have certain platforms reserved i.e. the main titles like GTA IV and its DLC for current-gen consoles and PCs while the prequels and spin-offs are reserved for the handheld market. In any case, I don't see them operating the way EA does with their games. They're certainly taking their sweet time this generation, you know, which is a good thing.

They never do more than one game on a Nintendo handheld. So if history shows, they will have one on either the DSi or the 3DS. And they say the 3DS is more powerful than the GameCube, so you have nothing to worry about there.
