I bet everyone here $2000 that the next gta will not be called GTAV... it's just that it's easier to type than to always type gtanext or whatever the fuk else

give me your details if I'm wrong I'll send you the money

Rockstar can call the game whatever they want. It could have the same canon and game engine as IV and still be called GTA V. Names don't mean anything, it's us fans who say that Rockstar has to restart the series every time they go up a number.

 

It'd be betting on Grand Theft Auto: [something fancy like TLAD or TBoGT] though. That, or GTA XV.

Don't think the era are based solely on the engines. More based on the visual effects. In san andreas there was quite a change, but you still got that III era feel from it. I highly doubt rockstar will make a game that will make IV look like its 8 years old like IV did too III.

I know, but I was saying that Rockstar are perfectly within their rights to call their next game GTA V even if it is to GTA IV what Vice City was to GTA III. Just because it's got a number after the name, doesn't mean it has to be a whole new "era".

I think it will be GTA V. I feel that R* is going into a new style of their games.

Depends on their marketing scheme.

The reason they chose V was to keep people guessing, putting mystery towards the title. To build hype, because if you're put forth all the info to begin with, then there is no hype

 

I remember people were still guessing the location till BlueSpot

 

anyone remember him? Good times smile.gif

 

My guess? They're probably going to keep the roman numeral system going, seeing how it worked with GTA IV. Adding the name of the location would destroy some of the hype

 

With the GTA III era games, they said straightforth that they were doing it in accordance to GTA 1(or was it 2?) map. You would basically know the next location.

With this new era of GTA games,

there does not look like some coherancy within the titles. Maybe so? We will find out

If we go back to VC would the title GTA Vice City 2 be a bad title you think?

Vice City 2 is a sucky title, I did like the fake pics of it being Honolulu. That looked pretty awesome.

The next generation of GTA will certainly be called Grand Theft Auto V or Grand Theft Auto 5. The initial game of each generation has been GTA *, with the asterisk being the generation number. It's only been since III that it's been Roman numerals, though - GTA 2 used the Arabic numeral.

 

That's not to say the next game in the series is going to be GTA V, though. It's entirely possible that we'll see a spin-off title next year, but the location is unknown. Rockstar have thrown a few hints out there, but they're all in different directions. I, personally, think we'll do a Vice City-esque game again, i.e. one that utilises a much more upbeat mood and tone, although I'm not saying it'll necessarily be Vice City.

If they keep it on the IV era then who is going to be the protonginist they already did 2 dlcs for IV. I think they should make a new era. And if they make a new era it should be in San Andreas

I still don't think the IV era should end so soon. As it stands the IV era games only consists of one city and the timeline has only spanned from 2008 to 2009. That's not very good imo when compared to the III era which has a much bigger timeline with a larger variation in environmental settings.

 

I definitely think this era needs more time to grow, and it certainly needs to go beyond Liberty City. They did a spectacular job on fleshing it out, and I'd like to see what more this era has to offer us before we move on.

You mean consoles?

 

Engines are just what software runs the game.

I honestly would hope for a general name but not the name of the city like "San Andreas: The Second Round" or some sh*t. I wouldn't want it to be too general, but something we wouldn't see from R*.

So, as i'm betting on a San Andreas return, i choose the "GTA San Andreas 2"... but, anyway, i'm not quite so sure about the possible look of the game's name... the "GTA San Andreas Stories" name wouldn't be very surprising for me though... 'cause i like that too! turn.gif

GTA:(INSERT LOCATION HERE)Otherwise i'm praying for GTA:Vice City 2,I mean they could add swamps outside town,maybe have a story character(a redneck cocodrile hunter)to give you missions and stuff,hell they could even add cocodriles to GTA,you know,you get in a swamp and risk getting your ass killed in a gory way,could be fun.

The game is most undoubtedly going to be GTA IV: Vice City, or GTA IV: San Andreas. That's how the third series worked.

Just because GTA3 did it that way doesn't mean GTA4 has to. GTA1 and GTA2 didn't for example.

thank you for saying this, i hate how people think things HAVE TO BE in the exact same style and that Rockstar just cant change it up and it has to go back previous patterns when really no one here has any idea what they are talking about and how it will all turn out and for the umpteenth time V is a place holder name, if you dont like it then call it what you wish, either way you should have enough sense to realize its a placeholder at this point

just stop being so closed minded

 

 

oh and as for a location name id go with something San Andreas whether it be all of SA or just a state within it, due to the leaked casting list having description of Californians

 

if anyones forgotten

More than likely it'll be called GTA: Vernance City, if not just GTA V.

Hawaii is full of Asian gangs. Prostitution slaves and drug trade are major issues there.

They should call it "Fred."

 

Yeah, "GTA: Fred" has a nice ring to it. Doesn't matter where it's set, just name the guy Fred.
