Title: Grand Theft Auto 4 DELAYED!!!
Post by: Kleaver on August 02, 2007, 10:47:00 pm
Yeah, those Take2 backstabbers have done it again  XD

    Take-Two is reducing its fiscal 2007 guidance primarily to reflect the movement of the launch of Grand Theft Auto IV for the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and the Xbox 360â„¢ video game and entertainment system from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 to fiscal 2008, due to additional development time required to complete the title. The title is now planned for release in the Company’s second quarter of fiscal 2008.

    Strauss Zelnick, Chairman of Take-Two, stated, “With Grand Theft Auto IV, Rockstar is setting a new standard for next generation video games. Certain elements of development proved to be more time-intensive than expected, especially given the commitment for a simultaneous release on two very different platforms. We all recognize that perfecting the game is vital and I can assure everyone it will be worth the wait. We owe it to the game’s millions of fans, to our dedicated development team, and to our shareholders to make sure that Grand Theft Auto IV is a groundbreaking gaming experience that takes maximum advantage of next generation technology.”

    Sam Houser, Founder and Executive Producer of Rockstar Games, added, "The new consoles are allowing us to create the Grand Theft Auto game we always dreamed about. Every aspect of the game and its design has been completely transformed. The game is huge and is pushing the hardware platforms to their absolute limits. The top engineers from Sony and Microsoft are working closely with the team in Edinburgh right now, helping us to fully leverage the power of both platforms. As always, our goal is to surpass even the wildest expectations of the game’s fans, and to create the ultimate high definition video game experience."

That's a good thing for me. Then I will have more time to play Halo 3 before GTAIV comes out, and my bro will have more time to save up for a 360 to get GTAIV!

Isn't this Duke Nukem Game that has been delayed so many times, the 4th in the series?

He's refferring to Demo 4 of OoT2d by TRM.

Duke Nukem Forever is the game you're thinking of, and that's irrelevant.

Hes referring to games getting into 4th in the series and then being stopped, okay Demo 4 is part of a series of Demos and not games, but that doesn't matter :P.

No....It's Duke Nukem....4Ever O_o
It really is the fourth game...

Anyway. I dont give a flying !@#$% about the console versions. I wanted to buy the PC version anyway. (If there is going to be one, otherwise I will burn down Rockstar myself) But I was looking forward to more info and stuff...plus the trailers are pure eye-candy.

So far all the GTA games (apart from the 'Stories' collection) have been on the PC so I dont see why this one wont be :P

Pshhhh....Who cares...every GTA is the same to its basic formula....

I may only get it when it hits the $20-$30 range just to blow the !@#$% outta people....

Hey FISSURE, I've done all that stuff and it gets old very quick....They need to make like a notority system or something for a GTA game...like you start off as a nobody...You could start doing jobs for the Mafia or the Asian gangs or whatever...Then you could start doing you're business and !@#$% or play the good guy and turn 'em in to the cops or something....

But I have done all those things you mentioned...the only one I liked in any was the airplane lessons and skydiving in SA....

I'm glad it's delayed. I would rather wait way longer and have an amazing game then have them release it early to meet a deadline (like what oblivion did).

It is, but it could have been much better if they put in all the stuff they said they would, instead they made lots of expansions like shivering isles and other stuff, If they brought over way more stuff from morrowind it could of been way better than it is now, you can't even use spears or throwing knives or crossbows >_<

Wow, way to take that from me, lol. So I obviously agree. Oblivion was rushed like a !@#$%, that's why they left out a shitload of stuff that they were planning to include. If only Oblivion was more like Morrowind....

Hmmm, well the thing about GTA I like is the freedom, and the ways of getting around town. It really bothers me all the people think about when they see GTA is a shooting game where you kill everything in sight. Every game has so much more depth.
