GTA V falls within two release windows

The flurry of Grand Theft Auto 5 screens had been a nice tease for fans of the franchise, but the silence since is not welcoming and it is hoped that another GTA V trailer would land soon considering the prolonged wait since the last one. The viral marketing, new images, and other information had led some people to believe a release date would at least be announced soon, but nothing has come to light and some gamers are starting to get frustrated again.

Newegg lets me preorder the game and it claims that the game is coming out on the 31st of December.

DasTier4239d ago

why would anyone release a game imediatly after the holiday season. I call bullsh*t.

Dovahkiin4239d ago

Definitely a placeholder, R* aren't stupid.

TCG_Returns4239d ago

Yeah! Why would anyone release a game during the boxing day sales that last all week after christmas.The most intense shopping week of the entire year!

Totally crazy!

DasTier4238d ago

@TCG_Returns The amount of revenue they would miss out on by doing that is ridiculous, Whether its GTA V or not releasing just after Christmas is a bad idea.

i_da_pappy4239d ago

most places do that it's just a place marker. it's not coming out on the 31st they do that until they have the real date.

gamernova4236d ago

Oh Okay! I found it a bit weird. I was like aren't the buyers going to be drained of all their money after Christmas? haha Thanks.

modesign4239d ago

retailers and sites use Dec 31st as a place holder if the release date is not in the current year. unless your stupid enough to think the game is coming out dec31

Zephyrus344238d ago

@modesign And then it releases on Dec 31st. Oooh the irony. haha just having funs with something that wont happen. :)

danswayuk4239d ago

GTA 5 won't come until 2013, most likely before April.

Shotcalm4239d ago

we gonna find out in a few months..so calm da f**** down.

Tetsujin4239d ago

I still have some games I have yet to even crack open that I bought/downloaded back earlier this year; them taking their time to make the game is released with a low number of issues is perfectly ok with me.

Ex-Rockstar Dev Finally Explains Why Small Planes Randomly Crashed in GTA San Andreas

Former Rockstar Games Technical Director Obbe Vermeij has finally revealed why some planes would randomly crash in GTA: San Andreas.

Profchaos13d ago

This fly by feature was on the cutting room floor due to the random plane crashes and it's one of those things I'm so thankful made it into the final version as these random fly by and crashes make the world seem more alive on the extremely limited PS2 hardware you needed everything you could possibly get in a open world to convey that feeling.

And accross hundreds of hours of gameplay I probably died around 3 times as a result of these fly by failures but I loved every time it happened

isarai13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

It made the world feel more human, and honestly kinda insane that even today with all these open world games, almost no one can capture that like R* even when compared to their ps2 games

Skuletor12d ago

Lol, I remember those. I vaguely remember dying from one crashing into my car once too.
