GTA5- PS3 Exclusive

zero2000 · 10-05-2007

"According to the November 2007 issue # 76 of the Official Xbox Magazine Sony has secured the next Grand Theft Auto, which would be number 7 in the series, to be a true exclusive to the Playstation 3.

"Rockstar really wanted to make a game that you can truly only do on PS3, harnessing the power of the Cell and Blu-ray disc and this deal lets them do just that" as said by Sony's Michael Shorrock in a statement to the press. " We handed Rockstar a signed blank check because we were short sighted enough to let Grand Theft Auto's exclusivity get away from us. Oops!"

Looks like the Xbox fans may be out of luck when it come to the next installment of Grand Theft Auto. If they do release a 360 version it sounds like it would have to be on multiple dvd discs if the game truly takes advantage of Blu-ray.

One thing is for sure. This will be interesting to watch play out. Stay tuned!"

This is fine and dandy and all that guys, but don't look forward to this until at least Q2 of 09, there is no way they'd get a game done so early after GTAIV comes out in early 08.

Probably longer, because Rockstar after GTA4 will be working on L.A. Noire (PS3 Exclusive) and another PS3 Exclusive title before they probably start on GTA5.

But think about that: By the time they start full-blown production on GTA V, They'll have two PS3 exclusives and one multiplatform blockbuster under their belts on the PS3. They should know the system inside and out by then (well, maybe not every little metaphorical nook and cranny, but enough of it to get around with their eyes closed).

The article did not state it was the next installment of GTA, they said that it was a game and they did not make any mention of the title of the game or the genre.

Newbie has a good point. Now that i actually read it, it does seem like a load of bs... and some of the comments on the article make sense as well.

Great showing of maturity here... people that talk like this are fanboys in their own right. Moron.

haha OXM...

i dont get those guys. Being an xbox magazine why do they create rumours that are pro sony. Why would they release news taht would encourage people to buy a ps3. for example, for ace combat they said its a timed exclusive for the ps3 - this would encourage AC fans that have a ps3 to not buy a 360 and wait for the game to come out for their console. Well OXM's claims regarding AC are so far confirmed wrong as namco are still saying that its exclusive. And i really doubt that theyre right about this GTA5 thing, considering their record. They like to create a bit of stir with their invalid claims. I'll wait for some real news.
