tejasm Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 OK. To start with, why hasnt R* told us what platforms the game will be on? I am not for a moment suggesting it will be NextGen but surely it can't hurt to confirm what thr platforms are if there is nothing they are hiding. Secondly, what is up with Housers' reaction to the interview? "I better be careful here...barbed wire" Was he trying to avoid the question of location to avert the bitter disappointment of one city or is there a possibility of seeing more locations? If it was LS/country only then couldn't he just have confirmed that instead of saying what he did? Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senor_huevos_benedicto Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 He said that because they always stick to a tight schedule for releasing information. They already confirmed that it was Los Santos with surrounding countryside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrcTOtheJ Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I say they haven't announced the platforms, seeing as it's pretty much going to be the same, as every damned multiplatform game of the past few years, PC, PS3, and 360. Go figure. About the interview, he proboly wasn't allowed/didn't want to release any information outside of the schedule they most likely have, so he basically "treaded lightly" so to speak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gummybear Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 The Housers are sneaky snakes aren't they? They are withholding too much info from their game, like, will it be as disappointing as GTAIV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildstyle91 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 What's so hard about announcing which platforms the game is on? I just want to know if it will be released on PC at the same time as consoles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paperbackmummy Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Well, Game Informer didn't ask Houser, "Can you tell us if there will be more than one city?" They just asked him if he could tell them anything at all about the game. And since it's so early in the advertising stages of V, Houser didn't want to give anything away, because I'm sure they have a carefully laid-out procedure for how they're going to reveal information, including more on the map, the storyline, and the inevitable new features. So he just reiterated what they'd already said in the press release, with a tiny little detail - "a very big map." So I think he was being cagey, yes, but not necessarily about the inclusion of two more cities. If GI had point blank asked him and he was cagey, then maybe we could suspect more cities. As it stands I think there will be more than one major city for a number of reasons, but I'm tired of debating that point, so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omeromer Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Maybe invisible aliens were holding a gun to his head and told him not to say anything. This topic is pointless. Just wait for the damn info, and stop making baseless conspiracy theories, they aren't hiding anything, they're hiding everything, they'll give the information they want to whenever they want to.

C2H5OH Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I´m heading to Madrid. But on the way I will also get past Brussels and Paris. For me the statement is kinda vague, it´s just the heading to part that isn´t quite right.. I´m not sayin other city´s WILL be in it, but it´s stupid to use that statement as evidence to say other cities won't / will be in it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either half of gtaforums is pre-teen or mentally retarded. Anyway, to answer your questions with a bit of logic (it's easy, you should try using it some time). Rockstar haven't told us which platform the game will be on because it's either too obvious (PS3, Xbox, PC), or because they're unsure about Wii U. They ARE NOT releasing it on PS4/Xbox 3. Dan Houser said he'd better be careful because GTA is A MASSIVELY POPULAR GAME. If he accidentally leaked any information it could harm their market strategy or kill some of the hype.

DeconstruKt Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I think it was just to avoid the disappointment of not having LV and SF. As for the platform issue, I think that they just want us to keep checking their website for this information, thus highering the fan-base for MP3. Whether this will actually work or not, we will have to see. I know it hasn't worked on me in the least. May I ask why you have this hidden rage for Max Payne 3? Most posts I've seen of yours that mention MP3 are just pure negativity. I'm not saying you're not entitled to your opinion, but MP1 and 2 were fantastic games ahead of their time back in 2001/2003, I can't believe people actually hate Max Payne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understandable, I've been looking forward to MP3 way before V was announched, but I guess since the games are a bit old now, V did kinda help boost it's popularity.

It has a big enough fan base as it is. There's no reason why they can't focus on both games at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
