Rockstar Games issued a statement on their newswire that GTA V will be delayed and will be releasing on 17th September 2013

Statement:-

"Dear all,

 

Today, we have an official release date to share with you: Grand Theft Auto V will arrive in stores on September 17, 2013.

 

We know this is about four months later than originally planned and we know that this short delay will come as a disappointment to many of you, but, trust us, it will be worth the extra time. GTAV is a massively ambitious and complex game and it simply needs a little more polish to be of the standard we and, more importantly, you require.

 

To all Grand Theft Auto fans, please accept our apologies for the delay, and our promise that the entire team here is working very hard to make the game all it can be. We are doing all we can to help ensure it will meet if not exceed your expectations come September – we thank you for your support and patience.

 

Yours,

The GTA Team"

When I see this, all I see is the disfunction/mis-managment that is Rockstar Games. Sad. This game shoulda dropped late 2012 but yet here we are still trying to decipher R*'s B.S. tyime estimates. Clown shoes.

Rockstar have created some of the most successful, critically acclaimed, and iconic games ever. V is their most ambitious project ever. We know that they work like dogs. And we know that when marketing kicks off this summer, it will be a worldwide spectacle.

 

Where is this dysfunction you speak of?

lol.. There's no question that GTA games are great. What he was trying to say is essentially that Rockstar could pick up a rock using their hands and it'll be over and done with.

 

Instead, they choose to find the most complicated ways and eventually, the rock is in their hands.

 

Instead of hiring a guy to just pick up the Rock, they hire someone to pick it up half way, and then someone to support the rock and then finally someone to move the Rock to their hands. The mismanagement.

 

Why does he say this? Well, the article from apparent "insiders" that have worked for Rockstar have stated that the same work gets handled twice or even three times because the first guy never does it right. When trying to point it out to superiors, he was told that "This is how its done"
