TheNathanNS Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 I was thinking that maybe GTA 5 won't be called GTA V/5 it might be called something like "GTA: Episodes from Vice City" or GTA: 20 Years On..... for SA. What do you think the next GTA name will be and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTroll Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 It won't be 'V', thats for sure. The numbers only appear after a new engine appears I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNathanNS Posted September 25, 2011 Author Share Posted September 25, 2011 Thats true. In the GTA III era only GTA III was named III otherwise we'd be past GTA V by now.... GTA 5 would of been SA. GTA IV would of been Vice City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwalk Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 It all depends on marketing though. If the next GTA is multiple cities, eg. Los Santos & Vice City, GTA: V would be a lot more marketable than GTA: Los Santos & Vice City or something of that nature. And while the III Era GTA's weren't called by the numerals after GTA III it doesn't mean R* will go with that strategy again. Either way I'll be happy when it comes out no matter what it's called.

IsItFridayAlready Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 (edited) Might just be a temporary name during development, but we might have an answer... http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/widget...star/xml/EN.xml http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/xml/Mu...nt/Schedule.xml Edit: Just to clarify, these are screenshots of two files on the Rockstar Games Social Club server which are configuration files for a video player on the website. Someone at some point added in 'Grand Theft Auto V' as a possible game which could be shown in the video player, meaning they are probably testing integrating GTAV's streaming multiplayer video to the R* Social Club.

Los Santos Pedestrian Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Names I think the next GTA should have by place - San Andreas: Episodes from San Andreas San Andreas Stories The San Andreas Epilogue Grove Street Stories Vice City: Episodes from Vice City The Ballad of Tommy Vercetti (kind of a lol there to me) Lost in Paradise That's all I can think of now.

grope_4_that_date Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 What if it's on the next console, and called GTA5 - but set in Florida? That way people won't confuse it with Vice City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that's legit. But yeah that is probably a Beta name for it, since later they'll decide on a decent name. Sunny Vice City or Glamorous lights of Las Venturas..... Now that is a hard choice for me. If its Vice City I'll expect references to Tommy. If its San Andreas CJ might make a cameo appearance! GTA V: 20 Years on...... With San Andreas being 20 years ago... well 19 but rounding it up! Note for anyone by 20 years on I mean the set time of SA's story NOT its release.

Who found it and when? This needs its own thread I believe Los Santos Pedestrian found it. Also this was mentioned in the Genisis topic so it may have its own thread may not I don't know. But this is the closest evidence we have to GTA V. I hope it means its being developed because as I mentioned, around 9 months before Spyro's Kingdom I saw something like this and it also had the games on it (note this was from summer 2010) ACTIVISION Call Of Duty Black Ops Winter 2010 Spyro's Kingdom TBA Summer 2011 and Winter 2010 bought us Black Ops Lats Summer bought us Spyro Skylanders.

Finn 7 five 11 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 (edited) It won't be 'V', thats for sure. The numbers only appear after a new engine appears I think I don't think it is because of the engine, i think it is more due to the fact that they decided to end the Era and start fresh, without so many over lapping storylines and such. I think it will still be in the IV era, because there has only been one city used, and there is no point starting a new era unless they wanted to use liberty city again, which i highly doubt.
