This can't be a coincidence ... there was no game published in 2010!

So 2010, the magic year!

2+1 = 3 = 2013

2+3 = 3 // 20 (first part of 2010) - 3 = 17

2 / 2 = 1 // 10 - 1 = 9 (< the first 2 is the first number of 2010 and the second equals of the counted 0 in 2010)

 

17/09/2013

 

We have already had the EXACT release date since months!

Conspiracy!

 

Sorry, couldn't resist. biggrin.gif

Not long I should hope. But not too care anymore as been trying to kill the waiting time for more V info by playing other games whilst I wait. But seriously though R* needs to hurry up as I don't think us fans or shareholders can wait too long for info, especially after the long unexpected additional delay to actually play the game. I'm hoping after the Sony conference this week, maybe a taste of more info perhaps?. But not too sure, fingers crossed though

trailer 3 will come out 9/18/13

Lol probably.

 

I get how rockstar works with their marketing but I always hated it. Yes they always leave you wanting more and the games they release are phenomenal but it frustrates the hell out of me waiting on info before release. Two months go by and they finally release one screenshot of a helicopter thats almost exactly the same screen as one we already have lol whatever. In my opinion they make the best games with the highest replay value of any that ever existed. But damn, they are masters of the mind f*ck.

 

OT- i would expect to see some new info after the hype from sonys new baby calms down and everyone comes back to earth

For me, the buildup to GTA-SA on the forums was a wonderful happy time, that made the game truly anticipated and playing the game was exquisite resolution of those months. I still remember that from 8 years ago.

 

Conversely, this miserable excuse for a GTAV marketing campaign of silence and indifference to fans, has already tainted my experience of GTAV, and this misery too will be memorable a decade from now, as I place Rockstar's future campaigns and products in this context.

 

Rockstar could begin to redeem themselves by fixing their current marketing f*ckup and more importantly, they could actually do their marketing of future GTA products correctly, so that their fans are ecstatic and thankful rather than miserable and resentful. Then my opinion of their marketing competence, and my mood, may be improved within the decade.

Hmm.. Yeah. I can't put my finger on it.. but back in the day..

 

GTA VC - I didn't mind the wait, coming to these forums was good, it was all fun anticipation and disection of every detail.

 

GTA SA - Same as VC, It was a fun time.

 

GTA V? Well.. Something smells wrong here, I have no idea what it is? Maybe they announced too early and the waiting has become stale?

 

Or Maybe, Maybe I had similar feelings when GTA VC and SA wait was going on but after the game released, the bad memory has been forgotten? Kinda like being pregnant?

 

I just don't know.. I just can't remember being annoyed about the delays and waiting for previous titles..

 

Maybe in my old age, I have just become more impatient? I need to talk to my therapist again.

If Rockstar was repeating their GTASA marketing plan now, GTAV would have been just announced for the first time this month, and we'd be waiting till July for the first trailer.

I hear you. Seems like the GTA-SA experience was longer than that, but I guess it's only the longer publicity timelines of games since then, like RDR, LA Noire and GTA IV that has skewed my perception of time.

 

And like Raynos said, maybe we have selective memory and I am only remembering the good parts of the GTA SA buildup. I also was happier with the pacing of info leading up to RDR, again maybe just remembering the good things.

 

Anyway, I'm trying to imagine how different my life would have been the last 15 months if I had not been spending hours on this forum every day looking for the rare nuggets of knowledge or worthwhile observations. It's been painful. Perhaps it would have been good if GTAV Trailer #1 came out now, rather than 15 months ago. What a frustrating time...

Well we've had to wait for a longer period of time before. So it's only been 18 days OP. I'm actually guessing we'll have to wait another 3-4 months for information. Also, I'm still waiting for a PC version announcement. I can't believe next gen platforms have already been announced with no PC version in the Horizon....

I really can't understand why they thought it was a good idea to release the first trailer so early.

 

I keep thinking about how great it would have been if they timed everything better. They could have gradually built up hype and anticipation making it get bigger and better all the way up to the release. Instead, they get us excited, make us wait forever, get us excited again, mislead us, make us frustrated and indifferent, and who knows what they'll do next. Morons.

They don't need to release content to build hype, and they know it, I would say there low content strategy is working looking at all the speculation/anticipation going on here

Nothing this month, maybe something in March but I do expect Rockstar to pick it up and start the marketing again by April/May

What they're doing can't be labeled a strategy and it's not working. Outside of this forum, there aren't many people talking about GTA V. Most people don't seem to care about it.

 

Isn't this the biggest GTA fan site? Well, the people here are mostly talking about PS4, Watch Dogs, and realistic steak.

Well honestly if I weren't an avid GTA fan I wouldn't be talking about a game that is 7 MONTHS AWAY either

It would be insane to market it heavily at this time, seven full months from the release.

And we already got loads of information

It'll be mid March before we get any update (s). Then we might get another few screenshots in April and May. E3 we should see a new trailer and another few screenshots following months before a launch trailer in August.

 

They'll most likely throw in a story run down in there too. I'd say E3 is most plausible for that but you never know.

It's GTA, they could market the game for only a week and it will still sell millions.

 

Don't expect any info soon. There's 7 months to go. I don't think we're gonna get anything until March/April.

Exactly.
