GTA "4" coming in 2007...

**MinionZombie** · 09-May-2006

Read over on ActionTrip.com that there's going to be a next-gen GTA game. As for the "next gen" bit - about friggin' time, four games on the same engine is enough already! Still though, it won't be sitting on my PC until summer 2008 I bet, they always take F*CKING ages to port to PC

No idea when the game will be set, what it will be about or anything, just that there's a next gen GTA coming out in 2007 for PS3 and Xbox360 (yes, at the same time).

They should bring it out for PC at the same damn time too, works better there than on a console I find ... although San Andreas assed up the control scheme a tad. Damn, why is PC getting more and more screwed over these days? PC gamers are hardcore gamers, we demand respect of our authoritah!

My friend and I were discussing the GTA series and how we couldn't wait for the next one...then we realized 'damn, we'll have to by PS3 (or xbox360) just to play it. It should be good, i mean, each time a new GTA has been released it has lived up to expectations or far surpassed them.

As for PC vs console games...I played PC games much more often until recently. Loved playing Diablo II:LOD, Age of Empires series, C&C, Sim City 3000...especially strategy games where the online community was huge. But since PS2 came out, I have played PC games less and less, although I've been thinking about buying AoE III, it looks real sweet.

The one difference that the Xbox 360 GTA4 will have over the PS3 version is the downloadable content. Microsoft and Rockstar signed an exclusive agreement for download content to be released for the Xbox 360. This would be something as simple as new clothes and weapons and bling for your GTA character to be downloaded from Xbox Live Marketplace. Then there's extra missions, levels, abilities, etc...

episodic content is the real widowmaker for ps3.

after yesterday, i now feel a defenitive need to buy an xbox360.

am i the only one not bothered?, what else can they bring to the table it may be in a different city but why you need a replacement for san andreas or vice city i dont know they should move on to toher projects rather than be stuck as a one trick pony/ thorn in hillary clintons side.

Im not too fond of GTA series. I liked its sandbox-style of gameplay, but after awhile it all started looking the same. Now, if the exclusive download content for the 360 means to add different levels, weapons and even more ways to kill and maim people then I may try it out. How cool woudl it be if Rockstar went all GAR on everyone and put up a patch on Live Marketplace that'll mod the game's npcs into zombies.

i don't see GTA asa one trick pony. they've consistantly reinvented the games by offering new character options, and geography.

and rockstar has put out a ****load of other games besides GTA.

Red Dead Revolver and The Warriors were both very cool games by RockStar. While I only watched a friend play The Warriors, he did really like it and played it endlessly. RockStar is definitely not a 'one trick pony.'

the warriors was aweful it was one long fight minigame with little to no variation.

but yeah i forgot about red dead revolver that game was the ****.

**p2501** · 10-May-2006

what about Manhunt.

Manhunt never gets any play.

last i heard it was banned in the uk yet my local gamestation still sells it, though they also sell jhonny depp action figures, so no accounting for taste i guess
