Kotaku: We break rumor without prejudice to the source, and this one comes from Vogue. Model Jacquetta Wheeler is friends with Dan Houser's wife, Anouchka, and during a visit, she says Dan showed Beaterator to her - on an iPhone.
Now, we already know that Beaterator, produced with Timbaland, is on the way to the PSP next month. Nobody said anything about iPhone, though. And don't ask me why I'm reading a friggin' Vogue fashion model blog, OK? But Wheeler seems awful certain that's the game and that's the platform on which she saw it. Verbatim, here's what she wrote back on Aug. 12:
GameDynamo - "Rockstar Games announced a special holiday sale for Grand Theft Auto III: 10 Year Anniversary Edition, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, and Beaterator in the iTunes App Store. For Android smartphone / tablet users, only GTA III can be picked up, and only on select devices (click HERE for the complete list)."
Chris Buffa (Modojo): According to multiple sources, some highly anticipated Rockstar game comes out tomorrow. L.A. something or other, with lots of guns, dead bodies and dames (ask grandpa what those are).
No surprise that it's on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Rockstar usually needs powerful tech to achieve its massive goals, but the publisher also has a rich portable history across a variety of platforms. In fact, some of the company's biggest franchises have appeared on Game Boy Advance and the iPhone.
RockstarNetwork.net has posted a holiday guide that helps you find savings on many of Rockstar Games' titles. They have even posted Pre-Order links for L.A. Noire.
Rockstar fans rejoice! Now your family has no excuse for why they didn't get you that Rockstar game for a gift!
boo
A fashion model said what? Did I really just get relocated to vogue.com? Seriously, this is as bad as twitter becoming the go-to source for games new and updates.
