All I want is a Maibatsu Monstrosity

V V V Vegas Baby YEAH!

Or at least that's what the rumours are with the V having the shading of American bank notes, and it being very much a 'V' and not a '5'.

I have been waiting for one since GTA3 & at the time there were loads of supposed ways to get one & I can safely say I think I tried them all. Those were the days!

Skeeter · 25 Oct 2011 at 16:00

Or it could be a Vice City remake (GTA 4 was pretty much a GTA 3 remake).

And now to make you all feel old.... next year will be the 10 year anniversary of GTA:VC....

They need to go back to it being a properly fun game with silly stuff in.

Yes, they need to veer towards being Saints Row-esque.

The GTA series have used roman numerals for GTA III & GTA IV.

That is just people clutching at straws. Besides Vegas was an area in San Andreas (Las Venturas).

They have always reused cities.

GTA1 had Liberty City, Vice City and San Andreas
GTA3 was Libery City, again.
GTA:VC was Vice City, again.
GTA:SA was Los Santos, San Fierro and Las Venturas
GTA4 was Libery City, again again.

If this is a game based in a single city then its a fair assumption that they would reuse one from before.

And I know its a V meaning 5 in Roman numerals. But unless they think we are all utterly stupid, why print 'Five' across it as well if it isn't to allow the V to be a 'V'?

I hope we get to a new city. With the russian mafia? Italian one? Please

antijoke · 25 Oct 2011 at 16:42

I guess the up shot of it is, no-one knows what city it will be based in, but I hope it's an amazing one.

I'd've rather had this as a launch title for the next gen. But I guess that honour could fall to Red Dead Redemption 2.

ThestigGT999 · 25 Oct 2011 at 16:45

If it is like GTA 4 then meh (in terms of driving and general physics ) The game has no seat belts.

If it is like the GTA games on the PS2 then I can't wait

pauLAW · 25 Oct 2011 at 16:54

let the speculation begin

Tom84 · 25 Oct 2011 at 16:56

Looking forward to the trailer, I'm guessing at a May/June release for this given when Red Dead and LA Noire have both been released over the past 2 years

Interestingly they havent redone GTA:London yet?

Las Vegas setting, with a Vice City feel....that's what I think GTAV going to be...

nitr0uk · 25 Oct 2011 at 19:46

Been waiting for this, can't wait

I honestly couldn't play it. I didn't get a PS3 until the Slim came out so I just bought all the classics that you apparently just HAVE to play. So I put the disk in, it loads up and I was like "what the hell is this?". Considering it was getting 10/10 for graphics it certainly was not what I was expecting.

In fairness I also couldn't get a handle on the controls as it just seemed a bit off to me. I also never had any of the previous 3D GTA games as I didn't have a system that played them though I had a lot of fun with the top down ones from early in the series and had played the previous entries in the series at mates and stuff.

I really want to play it and enjoy it, but with about 6 others games still to play then (and even more now) I've just not summoned up the will to literally try and look past the blur lol.

Because it reinforces the banknote style of the logo.
