Grand Theft Auto V Announced

could there be a specific reason why they never did san andreas storys?

Because the Stories were primarily PSP games (that were later ported to the PS2) and so it would've been a daunting task to get the map running on the PSP. Or it could be that they simply didn't have the time, since GTA IV was in its final stages.

they had the time. GTA LCS and VCS were developed by north and a different team. They had time. They just did not do it for whatever reason. They could of made SAS if they wanted too. Maybe download only for PSP and disk for PS2.

Off-topic but this thread is a day old yet 128 pages long...awesome.

I know, it's insane.

 

God I am so freaking hyped for that trailer, this is going to be the only thing I talk about at school today. biggrin.gif

To all the people complaining about disk size and stuff, look at just cause 2, no the cities wern't as detailed as IV's liberty city but the map was huge. Even if you condenced it to around half the size of the just cause 2 map and put a few nicely detailed citys, lots of music and missions. It's not really the disk space that matters so much as does knowing how to use the resources like texture size and res. For example a little cd jacket that you're never going to really notice doesn't need a crystal clear hd textures where as something more important such as tarmac or buildings do. Rockstar know what they're doing and i doubt they'll let everybody down.

And yes it would be nice for the 360 to have a larger disk size but we have what we have until the next gen and it makes no sence to complain about it, if you hqve a ps3 or pc thats fine, it's your choice to own them.

this was already covered.

 

My idea for 360 version is all data on disk 1, but disk 2 needs to be inserted when you enter a mission trigger. All missions and cutscenes can be on disk 2.

no sony said the PS3 will last and no PS4 will come until that 10 year life cycles up. There changing there pattern.  The ps3 they said has alot of room to expand and they said what can the ps4 really improve? Nothing since the PS3 is ultra modern and still up to date hardware.

Okay,

 

I see, you want me to drop the bomb, right?

where should I begin? let me see...

 

-DICE SAID THEY ARE REACHING THE LIMITS

-ID GAMES SAID WE SHOULD EXPECT NEXT GEN IN 2013/14

-EVEN NAUGHTY DOG SAID THAT IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO DELIVER GRAPHICAL IMPROVEMENT WITH A NEXT UC

-HOMEFRONT 2 GOT ANNOUNCED BY CRYTEK A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO(2014 RELEASE)

-"FABLE NEXT" IS UNDER DEVELOPEMENT

-APPARENTLY SCE STUDIOS BEGAN TO WORK ON GAMES(VERY EARLY STAGE)

 

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY IM POSTING IN CAPS! MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE I'M TO LAZY TO DELETE IT ALL AND REWRITE IT ALL WITHOUTH CAPS(LOL?) OR MAYBE IT'S JUST BECAUSE YOU SHOULD REALIZE THAT 2016 WOULD BE TO f*ckING LATE LMFAO...

it dont matter what they say, >>>>SONY<<< REMEMBER THEM? YEA! THE OWNERS OF THE PS FRANCHISE SAID THERE WILL BE NO PS4 TILL THE PS3 IS 10!

Chuck Norris, is that you?!

JC2 is using repeats over and over again, which gives more room for a bigger map wink.gif

Perhaps they did actually make it but realised that It didnt really suit the portability and maybe used the story they concocted for a bigger better GTA?

This would be annoying - every time you enter a mission you would have to insert disk 2? It's just better to install the whole thing on HDD. GTA IV on PC needed 13 GB of space, then my guess is GTA V will need around 20 biggrin.gif

one day we may find out. They may of been developing GTA SAS behind closed doors but stopped for whatever reason. Maybe to work on GTA 5? Then archived it on there backups and never said a word. The GTA stories was supposed to be a trilogy.

Sony didn't say they'd wait until the PS3 was 10 to make a new console. They said they expect the PS3 to have a 10 year life. In other words, they can release a PS4 and still be advertising and selling the PS3, just as they did with the PS2 when the PS3 came out. Personaly, I'm expecting the PS4 to be announced 2013, with a 2014 release. That sounds like a good timeframe to me. Though I do believe 2012 is a possibility of announce, but I'm doubting that.

Also, do you think it will be the standard - consoles first, PCs several months later? Or maybe this time they will release every version simultaneosly?

I can see this being on two disks, but because consoles let you download to the HDD now, it could work.

Download the first disk onto it, then put in the second to play.

Oh yeah, because we all know that changing disks every 15 minuets is the way forwards! confused.gif

Sorry but that's a stupid idea. Do something like battlefield 3 multiplayer and single player on different disks, or even better do like L.A Noire so many missions per disk. That would allow for better textures, more map space ect and not really be too much of a pain in the arse. And also have the option for people that have hdd's to install it and not have to disk swap like we had to do back in the day with old school games like driver 2

Im only thinking this after the interview that mentions about a bigger gta and it took x ammount of hours to drive to a certain part of the map, and if i remember correctly he was talking about why they went for liberty city instead, I think they put that original project he spoke of on the back burner and continued with development of a more condensed GTA IV.

they had the time. GTA LCS and VCS were developed by north and a different team. They had time. They just did not do it for whatever reason. They could of made SAS if they wanted too. Maybe download only for PSP and disk for PS2.

They didn't have the time: VCS finished development some time mid-2007. While Rockstar Leeds had the bulk of development, the core GTA team at R* also played a part, and GTA IV was (at that time) targeted for late 2007. Another reason SAS didn't appear could be that it would've required more work than the other two: one of the successes of LCS and VCS was that it introduced SA features to old maps, so obviously with SAS they would've had to spend time coming up with brand new features. Reviews of VCS pointed to the fact that the III-era games were starting to lose their shine, so R* could've put the work in for a lackluster commercial and critical return (the Stories games sold well, but not main-GTA well). There's nothing to say, however, that SAS may appear in some form further down the road.

 

Unless we already have got SAS, only they called it The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Thought this was quite interesting icon14.gif .

GTA V L.A Rumors could be proved true.

that place is not a good place or reliable info. If you dont hear it from rockstar or IGN then yea.

Kotaku.com has a past of unreliable info however recently they released precise info on Hitman:Absolution that proved to be true, and they released a whole bunch of info on Call of duty:MW3 before there was even an official anouncment all this info proved to have truth behind it, im not saying believe it but its worth a thought icon14.gif .

Yesterday.

 

"The site says that GTA V will be set in "some version of L.A" and also claims that multiple sources are saying that the game will feature more than just one playable character." This sounds to good to be true. Just can't wait to see that trailer.

 

And where are all the usual trolls at?

@ ccrogers15

 

see, I'm not the only one. It's like when you look in the mirror: FACE IT. And to come back to topic, GTA V will obviously be the last GTA on this gen as I said earlier.

 

I really think this is "likely".
