Could be cover reveal? I don't know =/ That is the first thing that popped into my head... the box art. How long was it before GTA IV released that the box art was released?

Lock n' Stock Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I think its legit. Rockstar did say more info would arrive in a "few weeks". I presume a few weeks would be 3 at the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doland J. Trump Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 It's here, apparently someone told him that there will be info this week and if not this week it will be next week at the latest. (It's right at the end) Not sure how to embed, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VickeX Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Bleh i really dislike Champ Chong with a passion. Some might call it hate. You don't get much respect from me by titling your videos "Grand Theft Auto 5 & Latest News" and similiar and then just talking about how . Plus, it annoys the hell out of me that he's gotten so popular with all of the terrible jokes he makes, and his so called transitions. It just all feels so terribly cheap to me. He obviously doesn't spend any time planning his shows - It just feels like any hardcore gamer keeping up with the news and with some very basic video editing skills could do just what he does. It's just those somewhat misleading titles and thumbnails that gets him the views. Sure he has a contact at Rockstar that's got his info and sends him some stuff to giveaway every once in a while, but he doesn't get any more info then any of us "normal" people. The fact that we'll get more info sometime soon (possibly this week or next) is something we're all already expecting based on Rockstars statement "more in a few weeks or so".

MosquitoSmasher Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 He probably got his 'word' from looking at Rockstarinformer's website. That's literally one of the only reasons everyone is expecting info this week. But someone who reports nothing but gaming news surely wouldn't trust the word from non official sources. The report did say no info before the 17th and today is the 17th so why wouldn't he trust it lol, that is unless R* does post today. @Hvitdverg Was that posted today? If so then I wonder why they're online so late at tonight , I smell something approaching today on the newswire guys or my name isn't Claude Speed, and it's not. The artwork bit? Maybe they are making some new artwork to put on the site to accompany a countdown for a second trailer or whatsoever? It's getting slightly interesting again.

A official release date announcement isn't going to come by itself though. It'll either be coupled with a screenshot or an artwork, most probably the cover artwork.

Dre23 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 who is this he looks like someone desperate because no news about gta 5 He has a YouTube channel where he updates most of Australia with new gaming news. He's a FAIRLY reliable source, but still nothing he says can be confirmed for sure. Rockstar have sent him a LOT of stuff though, so he's definitely in touch with them. yeah right if rockstar in touch with him i will kill my self with a drill in my ass if rockstar in touch with someone , it will be the gaming sites not some dude Rockstar gave the guy a copy of Red Dead Redemption before the games release, they also sent him a custom made Max Payne iPad and Rockstar shirts. Who knows what else they've sent him. No need to be so rude about it. its only a copys not informations .. he also claimed he saw those gta V pics months before they were made public then he is a f*cking lair r* is so secretive they wont show it to a nobody dude why iam talking about him ?? Iam out of here take this bye I could also say I've seen them months before but I wasn't allowed to talk about it... But I'm wondering about something else: If he got this information straight from Rockstar (because like you guys said he's "in touch with them") wouldn't Rockstar be p*ssed if they told him about new info coming the next days and then he drops the bomb on twitter before Rockstar actually can do.

Kifflom112 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Just on twitter and noticed ChampChongs latest tweet. I know there is a lot of hate on this guy, but he does bring quite a bit of news to the gaming community. Heres the tweet: Alen (ChampChong) @ChampChong "I just got word that more GTA5 info should be on the way this week! Early next week at the latest.." Do you think he knows something, or is he making a wild guess based on what Rockstar said a few weeks or so ago? Check out his twitter for yourself. https://twitter.com/ChampChong Edit: He just uploaded his new video confirming. Watch it here: Edit: Sure I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel here, but we seriously have nothing else to talk about until Rockstar give us something! lol, I'm really not trusting this fool. He knows no more than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dare say they would have told him on the condition that he reveals it - it's not like he said the exact date to expect something. If Rockstar told him straight out "Don't tell anyone" Then he would not have said a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. León Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I'm almost sure that if they show us something, it's going to be a new trailer, in the MP3 and GTA V Q&A, when they showed the two screenshots, they said that they will be back with some more, and then a new trailer, they already gave us 10 more screenshots, so the trailer is next.

Adriaan Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 He said "earlier today". He's in Australia, right? "Earlier today" in Australia was very late at night in America... Even if he heard it Monday morning Australian time, that's like 1am New York time... So not exactly sure where he heard it from, other than, as other people suggested, he read rumors on the internet. Rockstar closed down their Australian Publishing offices some time ago, so it can't really be from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MosquitoSmasher Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Yeah, and why would they tweet about some artwork? To my knowledge they never did that before, so they must have tweeted this because it concerns something big, a big game? Gonna be an interesting week.

Banno_benny Posted September 17, 2012 Author Share Posted September 17, 2012 Here is what I'm hoping happens this week. Seeing as Rockstar are at 10 screenshots at the moment, I'm hoping we get another 5 screenshots on Monday, then another 5 on Wednesday, (Monday - Wednesday like the other screens) Then on Friday we get hit with a countdown for the 2ND trailer. But at this stage I'll be happy with ANYTHING. Edit: 12 screenshots, didn't count the first 2 from the A&A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
