johnny_zoo Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) Yeah I really think its gonna come this Wednesday. And this is why, Rockstar waited until the end of the month to release the boxart for IV. Surely Rockstar will stick with trend and release this Wednesday on the 30th. Rockstar will stick with this pattern and release this wednesday, also can we expect an official website unveiling also? I think it would be fitting and tie in nicely. Yea I know maybe its been said before but I wanted to inspire hope and remind people. What do you guys think? Edit: I distinctly remember the period in November 2007. We were not, as a community, expecting any new info, and certainly not the boxart. Then out of the blue the boxart was revealed. There was no former statement and long waiting period because Rockstar were not tools of the now highest order. All that happened throughout most of November is that Take 2 confirmed via a statement that they don't know why Strauss is being a douche-bag. Its possible for it to come Wednesday since they release stuff on Wednesday but they do on Thursday also. Either way I hope its Wednesday. Waiting one day's difference for GTAV info is gonna be like waiting for Kim Jong-un to step down. I just realized I made this topic and said Wednesday but already voted Thursday in the Poll thread. Ah well I still hope Wednesday. Edited January 29, 2013 by johnny_zoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic_Al Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Stick with what pattern? There is no pattern There is a pattern of major info being released in late January/early February. In each of their years, Max Payne 3's and L.A. Noire's release dates were announced, their official sites launched, and new videos were released for them and for Red Dead Dead Redemption. A round of hands-on previews for RDR came out. L.A. Noire had a round of hands-off previews, and Max Payne 3 had a round of interviews. I think it's likely the release date will accompany the box art, but it's possible they'll wait even later than recent games to reveal a date to avoid having to announce even a small delay later.

jimbo_gee Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Quite frankly who gives a flying f*ck about box art ? there is only so much that can be said about the front cover... it has colours and words on it. I'm more interested in a release date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
real-life-G Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 they said we will have boxart before the end of the month so i think alls we can hope for aswell is the release date of the 3rd trailer then att eh end of trailer 3 a release date for late march or begging of may hopefully no BS june ... peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GourangaMaster Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Im thinking wednesday too but not for any type of pattern but because Vice city is releasing on PSN network tuesday. R* will most likely have a news update the day of release and then artwork wednesday followed by cover reveal. Depending on if R* release artwork on tuesday the cover reveal could still come late tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MosquitoSmasher Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 But by the same logic they could be revealing it today, because it's the 28th. God knows why they have to wait till the very end of the goddamn month. I guess they didn't expect that we fans are pretty much excited about anything GTA V? I mean...i can't say i'm ever excited to see a box-art of any game other than GTA V, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kifflom112 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) What f*cking pattern?! Why do people on this forum always think there's some frikkin' pattern? Info on Thursdays News at 9:00 News at 11:00 Trailer dates Etc. There are no f*ckin' patterns. ------------------------------------------ I was warned for this. Just a note though, I was trying to point out that there are no patterns. I guess it's a little too blunt and a bit rude but I was just trying to get at a point. In actuality I wasn't even mad. Just trying to get a point across. But, oh well, too bad... Edited January 28, 2013 by Kifflom112 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But maybe Rockstar wasn't aware of that, and don't see the big deal and thus are unveiling it so late in the month?

+ Xx--_TheHeist_--xT + Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Rockstar Games has changed it's marketing in there games right now and before aswell. But for this one? I have no glue to pick, but this week in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankieP Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I partially agree with what has being said, but not because there is a pattern and more because Vice City is out on PSN tomorrow, which means Wednesday ( or Thursday ) is the reveal date. I am actually more keen on Thursday, but Wednesday is also a high probability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be completely honest Rockstar games are the only games I ever get excited for. Especially GTA and after playing RDR I also will be very excited for the next Red Dead. They indeed have some kind of magic since every little tiny bit of information currently about GTA V makes me that much more excited. It's also the only games I ever buy limited editions of. – overeducated wonk who fetishises compromise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Above Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 It's either today or Thursday. Tomorrow they will undoubtedly mention the PSN release of Vice City and since it releases on Wednesday in Europe they might not post any news that day. I'm sure the GTAV cover art will be the top story for at least a week when it's out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niiiiice. /irony Well I'd say depends on the beer. Cheap crap beer like Pabst Blue and yeah, you're gonna hate yourself afterwards, but get a nice German or Belgian beer and I'd have the time of my life. Back on topic: If we're going by trends, the last boxart reveal was on the 28th of the month. It's the 28th today. Doesn't that account for anything? I guess we'll see. It's still a bit early in the morning so we have time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
