Grand Theft Auto V is Coming

4.6
Saying that Rockstar Games is working on a new Grand Theft Auto game isn't exactly a bold prediction. However, sources close to the Take-Two Interactive subsidiary have confirmed to GameSpot that the next installment in the blockbuster series is "well under way" and is already having final touches such as minigames being applied to it. The sources said a 2012 release was "pretty likely," adding that the game's scale was vast.

"It's the big one," they said.


Development of the next GTA is "well under way."
Unfortunately, the sources would not divulge any further details on the project, which is already the subject of much speculation. A recent set of casting calls from a talent agency point to the game as being set in a Los Angeles-like metropolis, with a motley crew of California characters being filled for a voice-over session. Prior rumors had the game being set in the Miami clone Vice City.

As of press time, Rockstar reps did not have any comment on casting calls, the game's setting, or whether a new GTA was even in development.

Wherever the next GTA is set, it will have some big shoes to fill. Its predecessor, Grand Theft Auto IV, was a massive success for Rockstar and Take-Two. As of March 2011, the game had sold nearly 20 million copies, placing it among the top-selling games of all time. Its forebearer, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, sold more than 12 million units globally, with its domestic 9.8 million-unit haul putting it in NPD's top 10 US best sellers of the 2000s.

-Telenow- Finally a new GTA! If only they used real cars instead of but-leg cars that sound/look like real cars, lol. (By real cars I mean Chevrolet, Nissan, Ford, Lamborghini, Porsche, ect.


but the fake names make gta what it is sometimes. like who doesn't want to drive a big tasty or a Coquette or PMP 600. plus i don't fancy driving a nissan micra


The reason they don't use actual names, is because they'd have to first of all contact the manufacturers to obtain a license and most likely pay for it. For a racing game, paying for this makes sence... but there's no point for them to have real names in GTA :D

Alex_modZz it has been like 2 years gta is sooo cool funner when ther is iso dics


If you had read it you'd know it's nearly been 3 years.

It's been rumoured for a January/Febuary 2012 Release date,along with a return to San Andreas NOT Vice City,espcially with the voice actors called in,since Vice City is Miami and Los Santos is California.


And if you read it says NEARLY 3 years which makes it 2 years, so why troll on some kid???
This is a site for gamers and modders not exam boards for ENGLISH and READING so wtf???
Whats the point on trying to make yourself seem clever on the back of someone else??? That the same as bullying, its pointless.
Its a GAME and thats it - its there to be enjoyed so regardless of 2 - 3 years, heads up and lets hope that this is a good instalment of a game that has already hit its peak! Time to up the ante ROCKSTAR!!


You're doing exactly the same thing he did so you both can stfu.

Why give an essay because someone corrected someone else? A-bit over board don't you think?
And corrcting someone has nothing to do with English and Reading. I really don't know where you were going with that.
