When will Rockstar announce GTA V?
Well, with confirmation now that the forthcoming Xbox 360 DLC 'The Ballad of Gay Tony' will be the final installment of DLC for GTA IV and a final farewell to Liberty City, we must now surely be close to getting the first bit of news regarding the next full console based GTA game.
As we know, Rockstar have already stated in interviews that they have been busy developing GTA V for the last 12/18 months, so surely we can't be that far off now from some kind of announcement. So, what are people's thoughts as to when Rockstar will announce GTA V? Will it be this year or will Rockstar hold off until early 2010?
I can't see Rockstar announcing something until after the release of TBOGT on the 360 due for release on 29th October. We could possibly hear something in November or December, or more likely early 2010.
One things for sure, it's going to be exciting in the months ahead as we hear some exclusive spoilers regarding GTA V. Also, will the next GTA game be called simply GTA V? Rockstar may decide to give the next GTA game a sub title, like they did after GTA 3 was released on the PS2. It could go something like GTA: Return to Vice City or GTA: Vice City 2 (doubtful but you get my drift!)

I could be talking nonsense though
Itll be like San Andreas, and Id expect that announced mid-next year, with a 2011 release, more than likely.
I can't remember exactly when, but I think GTA IV was first announced 12 months before it was released, so yeah I think an early 2010 announcement is looking more likely.
It will be interesting to see where Rockstar go next with GTA. Will they go back to Vice City or San Andreas or will they go for a completely new location? Or perhaps even London as they did the GTA expansion pack in the late 1990's which was titled GTA: London.
I'd love to see a next gen version of Vice City though in a current day setting. That would be great to see
I still play San Andreas more than GTA IV (which is a terrible storyline and stupid characters) as nothing beats flying over the map in a fighter jet or a 747.
And it's much "brighter". Even the daylight scenes on GTA IV are grimy and dark. You feel like you need to clean the TV screen half the time.
It's generally around October time, with GTA4 being the only real exception (and even then it was originally scheduled for an October release)
If a new GTA was to be released October '10 though I'd have thought we'd know something about it by now, so I think 2011 is a fair estimate.
it's too early for another gta, plus they are busy working on Agency which 'rockstar have said they want to be the next gta'.
Rockstar North are currently working on Agent which they're hoping to release that in 2010. I think there'll be an announcement next year about the current GTA4 DLC heading to the PS3.
I can't believe they haven't done this already.
It was handy to beable to easily restart the mission, but would have been good to be able to skip the car journey to the destination of the mission.
Returned in The Lost and Damned.
I beleive, unless I'm wrong, that this was a feature on Chinatown Wars.
One of the few, if possibly the only, games I got completely immersed in. I used to ride around for ages on the harley just cruising down the road admiring the scenery
And once I got the jet pack, I used to always nip back and get that to get everywhere.
Also contains my most bizarre gaming moment .. I was walking into the bookies and noticed a large explosion at the end of the street.
Curiosity got the better of me and I wandered down to have a look and found a plane had dropped out of the sky and crashed in the middle of the street !!
Oh and going to the top of the really tall tower and jumping off on a motorbike .. that was always fun
But then i'm rambling ..
I think, as Vice City was the second GTA game to appear on the PS2, that this will be the next GTA game for PS3 and Xbox 360. Rockstar will probably completely remake Vice City like they did with Liberty City in IV which was completely different than the PS2 version of the map.
I thought it was just the last exclusive for the 360 and they were going to continue with episodic content?
It's just something I read in the latest edition of '360Gamer' magazine, but thinking about it maybe they were talking about the last of the 360 DLC
