What about Agent?
I got this feel that sony just got scammed by take two over this whole deal, has sony see anything of agent when they signed on the deal. got a feel agent gonna be half assed effort by rockstar, and they'll use money from la noire to funds gta5, not gonna surprise either if they're fishing for ms deals for gta5 while they're at it
 
So am I the only one that liked the serious tone of GTA? After Red Dead I know Rockstar can deliver a compelling story. I'd be all for them making GTA V Vanilla a serious experience with a good story, but nothing TOO over the top.

And then save the ridiculousness for DLC. Like Gay Tony and Undead Nightmare did.

But I AM phsyched for a new and improved free mode. If they take the cues from Red Dead. Holy hell.

They also need a better matchmaking/party system.
 
Best case scenario for me would be if GTA V spanned generations, and you got to see past characters & locales. Similar to Front Mission 5, I guess.

Not really practical to develop I suppose, but one can dream...

Countryside in SA was the best.

Yep, it's what made San Andreas so damn awesome. I loved exploring little hick towns like Angel Pine. And it was so awesome driving up Mt. Chiliad for the first time.
 
I hope that the next real GTA isn't a retread, I want something new. I guess the problem is that there aren't a whole lot of interesting locales in the US. I would be down with a Detroit or Baltimore game, but those wouldn't get people excited. A GTA set outside of the US would be ideal, there are some locations that would be awesome like Tokyo or London but it'll most likely be set in something like Hollywood like those recent rumors suggested.
 
the 80s thing was done to death (in a good way) in Vice City already. Time to let it go. 80s nostalgia is starting to get overdone and predictable (see the trailers for that "Take Me Home Tonight" movie). I'd much rather see them take one of the campy cities from the older games, either SA or VC, and modernize it like that they did in GTA4, and let you revisit old locales and characters and see what they are like now.
 
With how Rockstar operates you'd think that people would've learned that a game isn't canned just because they haven't said anything about it for a long time. RDR was shown back at E3 05 as that "Unnamed Western title" and Rockstar didn't say a word about it after that until 2009. They just operate completely different from nearly every other developer.
 
If this is GTA, the names sound much more San Andreas then Vice City or a foreign city.

CashForDeadDreams sounds like a porno company for actresses who did not make it.

SixFiguireTemps Sounds LA/ Silicon Valley.

HammersteinFaust, potentially a law firm.

LifeInvader sounds like Facebook or Google.

StopPayingYourMortgage- Encompasses the entire US.

Seems more LA then Miami, and does not sound like it will be outside the US.

The smarter approach would be for Rockstar and Sony to agree to leave Agent as a launch title for the PS4 as 2013 seems the appropriate time-frame for both.
 
has there been any debunking of that rumor about the next GTA being in Hollywood?

seems very likely, and those hints don't say otherwise
 
I'd like for them to revisit London in 3D still. I actually liked The Getaway (never played the sequel or PSP one) and think that for all the crime movies set in the UK, there are few games that really explore that. But they'll stick with America, probably.

PS4 in 2013? No one better squeak a peep about PS4 until 2016 at the least.
 
I think cashfordeaddreams is a play on the cash4gold company. But you are right that they all sound like something in the U.S.

I really dont think that R* will set a GTA game anywhere that has people driving on the left side of the road anymore. The game needs to sell in the U.S. and it wouldnt surprise me if they were worried that a setting outside of America or having people drive on the left side of the road would turn off some customers. Nowadays companies really need to take stupid stuff like that into consideration.

I did. Hi 5!

GTA: New Orleans or maybe somewhere outside of the U.S.. And please keep the more grown up tone of GTA 4. If people want a sandbox game that is about nothing but destruction with juvenile humor there is Just Cause 3 and Saints Row 3.
.

Will NEVER understand GTA4 hate. There's a reason why San Andreas is the only 3D GTA game I never finished.

Ordinarily I would agree with that. But 2 factors sway against it;
(1) Sony want to release their 8th gen console before MS and possibly Nintendo
(2) If they can't resolve their piracy issues, PS4 will come soon rather than later.

But

Rockstar's PS3 exclusive Agent could be released as soon as next year, if a Q&A on the official website is to be believed.

"We appreciate the enthusiasm of PlayStation 3 owners and believe us, we understand where you're coming from," begins the post.

"That's why we are working hard on a line-up of PlayStation 3 releases for 2010 that we know you will be very excited to play - including Red Dead Redemption, Max Payne 3, and the PlayStation 3 exclusive Agent, which is a brand-new title from Rockstar North, the creators of the Grand Theft Auto series.

you honestly don't want a successor to be announced until 10 years after the ps3 was released? i'm all for this gen lasting as long as possible but we are going to want upgrades sooner than 10 years.


also, those leaked domain names make it seem pretty clear it won't be outside the US. i really wanted it to be in tokyo or a european city but oh well. i really hope it's a san andreas style game with multiple cities or just a larger variety of environments than gta4.

3 major Rockstar titles in one year? They've never done anything like that. You're lucky to get two and some times you only get 1.

not sure how a game that doesn't exist like Agent can be called major

GTA New Orleans would be super fucking sweet.

Tons of street musicians playing rag and jazz. Omg DO IT

GTA: The Big Easy
GTA: MardiGras City
GTA: Carnival City
GTA: Plaquemines

Um...can't think of anymore.

GTA: Crescent City

New Orleans is also sometimes called The Crescent City due to the shape of the Mississippi river as it curves around New Orleans.
 
All I want is some fun music (not your wannabe hipster crap), fun driving, and fun countryside and driving terrain.

Pretty reasonable.

Not be confused with Crescent City, CA!

GTA: Bayou City, another possibility.
 
I swear I read somewhere that Rockstar North was pissed that Agent was announced so early, and they had only been working on it for a half-year. And the 2010 thing probably comes from Rockstar's MO of setting an absurd release date and just gradually pushing back a game six months at a time until complete.

Agent could just be a smaller project, or in co-production with another studio in the company. North is a big studio, who does spread around their resources between the Rockstar family.

With V, I'd like to see something new this time. Maybe something like Shanghai in the late 1800's
 
def sounds gta related hope they visit somewhere new, but if you do revisit anywhere...make it vice city.

SA had the best soundtrack. NEW JACK FUCKIN' SWING? YEEEEEEEAH!
 
I need LA Noire and Agent before GTA5.

Hell, I want Bully 2 before GTA5.

And when it finally comes, I really hope its GTA: 22nd Century than another one set in the 80s/90s/00s.

Grand Theft Auto.

Can you see the problem?

Grand Theft Rickshaw, problem solved.

At least it would be better than fuckin Ohio, maybe they could do Grand Theft Dumpster Diving since that's probably the most extreme that gang crimes get over there.
 
I'm sorry but that GTA: New Orleans idea was the best idea ever. I am now too busy thinking of all the fucking incredible atmosphere they could insert into such a game. And it's got the crime, corruption and underbelly of the best American cities to boot.

But music is such a central role in New Orleans that it'd be amazing. All walkin' down the French Quarter, seeing the poor musicians playing for pennies with their sorrowful rendition of Oh! Susanna
