They say TBC-2012 http://www.game.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/se...0&searchBtn.y=0 Once again these are just placeholders and since Rockstar has made it very unclear as to the true release date is, this is simply a placeholder.

Geralt of Rivia Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 It's a placeholder, like every other store has. How come people can't realize this? There's at least one topic a day Isn't a placeholder only for internet because they have to put some kind of date in the database when uploading a new game? Here they could have written coming soon on this little piece of paper. They just write anything. They could write coming in 2020 if they wanted to. Just a placeholder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTAFANNFL01 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I would treat all release date rumours until R* says something as fake. That being said 2013 looks extremely likely so it wouldn't be out of the question that the poster is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulsson94 Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 That screentshot in the background is "something" yep the old GTAIV preview boxes had only the logo with a black background, in this case there seems to be some rocks and natural environment It is not a preview box it is just a piece of paper.

significantother Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 It is not a preview box it is just a piece of paper.I also took this bigger picture: http://i.imgur.com/bsJ6B.jpg Interesting, the gamestop I go to had a giant poster on their windows that had a picture of the infernus screenshot of Grand Theft Auto V (the pre-release) and it says: "GRAND THEFT AUTO V COMING DECEMBER 2012" While another Gamestop I go to a couple blocks over, it says the release date is February 2013. You just never know with these things, nobody has the release date, and Rockstar has not made it clear at all if it's coming out in 2012 or 2013. We can only wait, and see.

DS 17 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I'm actually glad we have some form idea now when it will be released In 2013 and possibly in Febuary Official press release can't be far off from rockstar now Uhm no. BETWEEN Feb and MAY. Will probably end up in May anyway. You are saying these "facts" after reading some placehold dates by some shops? There is no time period we already know when the release is. We can only guess like all the shops do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwinterj Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 It's a placeholder sure but expect the game by May 2013 at the latest if you do pre order. Personally I won't pre order until we have a release date and even then I might not pre order as there is no need to unless R* decide to give us a bonus for doing so.

Isuck100% Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I'm surprised so many people believe that the game could come out in December. Almost no large AAA titles ever release in December. All the big holiday season titles release from September to November. That's how it is every year. Why release in December and miss the Black Friday sales? Of course, even December seems way too close to me. February is the earliest I can see as being rational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkbart Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Interesting thread though. Good to gather info like this, but like all others have said they don't know anything more than we do, except maybe that they are now starting to advertise V, possibly meaning that we are starting to get close to hearing somethin official.

Francis44 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Altough I dont believe in a 2012 release, the thing striking me the most was that change in Rockstar's site saying "Q4 2012". Most people are saying it's a fake but I find it curious that many trusted websites are reporting that leak. We've had a few of those but no one got as much attention as this one the press, which makes me believe that this change on the website was seen by more than just one guy. And yeah why would Rockstar make a mistake like this?! Perhaps it was not a mistake and just a tease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kifflom112 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 While I was gone, I noticed that a lot of people were posting that "R* leaked release" garbage. It's fake. Why would R* happen to release a date and then quickly remove it? Why would you all of a sudden be there at the right time. And bigger question, how is 2012 even possible now? I don't even see why people are still pushing a 2012 release, it's obvious it won't happen. So this, even if it is fake, it may be true info in actuality, I think we all know GTA5 won't be out until 2013, March-June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kj2022 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 it seems like we're getting closer to a release date reveal, but I'm not expecting it til November time, with a march release date. 2013 is the best bet now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kj2022 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) Were heading to the year 2013 why can't we get decent photos? because not everyone has an HDSLR camera with all the additions, and even if one has a top of the range camera like that, they don't take it out of the house unless they're taking photos on purpose, and even then, taking a photo of a display with such a camera will raise suspicion.

Bantri Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I love how every proof photo of any sort of leak is always blurry, and really close up. I mean, the picture couldn't have been taken with the camera/phone being still, or just a tiny bit father back? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LethalCrizzle Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 If GTA V is to be released next year (2013) which is highly likely. It will not be released in March considering Bioshock Infinite has a released date of Febuary 28th. Take 2 will not want them released so close togeter. If anything may will be the very earliest, but possibly later. They will want to maximise sales of Bioshock before released GTA V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, the picture couldn't have been taken with the camera/phone being still, or just a tiny bit father back? lol Hahaha so true!! But as I said I took the picture right beside the receptionist and thought it would be awkward to stand and try to get the perfect focus on my phone. About the close-up part, I guess we have all seen pictures like these and think that that is the way to take these pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
