I never said devs do that. Only that its possible that the poster of that list on gamespot THINKS they do...

God almighty, I hope all of this is true. If not part of it. 'Cause if it is...

Sounds really good, but I wish I could have these questions answered:

In GTA V it was better to die than to be arrested... Is there any reason for you to allow yourself to be arrested? For example, if you crash and get a single star, can you just pay a fine and be done with it?

Is money actually worth something this time around? And by that I mean something else than using money to get mroe money in the underground economy. Am I able to make millions in the drug trade and buy estates, cars etc. etc.?

Is the shootin' and killin' actually fun and in more interesting environments than last time?

Are buildings just blocks of concrete you can't enter?

I did that for the trailer.

Bit of an inflammatory topic to achieve that goal. Surely he'd have known that it would get blocked (We know how much GS would hate to be in Rockstar's bad books).

He might have actually got more success on the Rockstar forums because, you know, people pay attention to them.

Seriously. This. I played GTA IV recently and realized that I had thousands of dollars, and nothing to spend it on.


OT: I'm not getting my hopes up for anything until it's officially confirmed by Rockstar.
Also, GTA V should have zombies. Like an Undead Nightmare DLC thing. Just sayin'.

3. The game is due in May 2013. A more specific date has not been decided because the game is still needing 6 months to be fully developed. They will have a playable demo at E3.
I called the 26th of May 2013 when I first saw the trailer, hope it's true, my mate has to by me the game if I get it right!

Some interesting features. Definitely pumped for the game either way if this is legit or not; let's be honest, it's gonna be a masterpiece.

What I will say though is that there's an unnecessary spoiler on number '8.' which kiiiinda annoyed me because...I didn't know about that haha. But maybe I'm just touchy.

Well GTA IV was too 'real' and boring with only the bank mission being the real fun of the game and this sounds even worse. I just don't see the appeal of this level of realism in any game, this is why Saints Row just took over. Far more crazy, far more fun and just 10x more batshit.

While I agree, there is a certain level of craziness associated with GTA games (Maybe not IV). The return of flyable planes will no doubt cause hilarity for some people, but Temperance is a virtue, and there is some appeal of the realistic aspects of gaming, otherwise they wouldn't be made.

We'll just have to wait and see. Rockstar does tread a fine line, especially with San Andreas, so let's hope Rockstar can rekindle some of that fire (James Woods, anyone?)

I'm sure it's fun for some, personally I don't get it. I assumed the main reason for playing games were to escape reality/problems/have fun. I don't see playing a realistic game as being fun, in a GTA styled game I want to see crazy things happen. In IV the amount of realism was depressing and annoying, the cellphone was just as annoying as it is in reality and such.

Each to their own!

I guess you have to see it like this: In Saints Row, the funnies are there fom the start. Everything is batshit crazy. If, like me, you spent a lot of time on SR2, then some of the jokes just... aren't funny. Whereas, in GTA, where everything is mellow and quasi-realistic (I mean, come on, what are the chances that Nico could be pushed quite THAT far into the criminal underworld so quickly?), when something funny happens, it really takes one by surprise. Also, I see a LOT more videos of people arsing about in GTA 4 than in SR3 (see: Bloopers, Glitches and Silly Stuff).

Would rather have Bully 2 rumors...
I'll likely be sitting this one out. I thought Grand Theft Auto 4's city was too big and tedious to get around in. I'd really love for Rockstar to release another Bully-style game, with a sensibly-sized world and fun ways to travel through it.

No way. Any company is gonna make you sign an NDA, which persist even if he's not employed, according to terms stipulated in the article. Rockstar is too big to have a loophole like that, even if the NDA is in the employment agreement.

So this all sounds like lies to me.

Some of them i even HOPE are lies...

Well call me a immature 4 year old but I thought Saints Row 3 was funny straight through as were the others. I beat GTA 3, VC, SA, 4 and while 3 and Vice city were amazing they slowly got more serious and annoying to me. I get what you're saying though

Ah depends on what you want really, Saints Row 2/3 have the market on batshit crime sandbox covered, there's no point in Rockstar trying to compete.

If they get the writers in from Red Dead Redemption, I can imagine it being a lot of fun, as it would work with the gritty realism. When I want to divebomb naked from a pimped out rocket helicopter onto an old lady while skewering her with a 6 ft dildo, I'll play SR3, wheras if they get the writing good, I can go to GTA 5 for a serious crime story.

It's still fantasy to a certain degree, as I can't get away with doing GTA stuff in real life, but I can in a quasi realistic way on GTA5. Hence why I enjoy LA Noire, the story hasn't really gripped me yet, although the overarching plot hasn't really emerged yet either, but because of the "realistic" tone I just enjoy pretending I'm a detective, all the while chain smoking while trying to get into the mind of the serial killer and severely over thinking it from watching too much dexter.

Very true this.

However, there might just be a lick of truth to this one. Alot of major developers have allegedly just laid off their old Lighting Technicians due to a new technological upgrade that's left their very specific skillset obsolete.

There's been leaks from Square-Enix and Bioware over the last few days as well.
To be honest I dont see these features as being that far fetched, the improvements of how the world worked from GTA:SA to IV were huge, and then from IV to RDR with the animal behaviours and other things.

Even if it doesnt have these features I am sure it will have some others that are as good.

Are you telling me you can't hide behind a wall and recover bullet wounds? Damned liar! :U

Yeah I guess I see the appeal in that way, I don't think I'd like it but I get it. I guess it's more like The Getaway, except good.
