That pretty much confirms that this guy is the protagonist!

[Scarlett.]

More screenshots later this week O_O

[Jordan.]

That old guy riding a BMX will be a good laugh

[GiRTh]

It looks amazing I hope they've sorted out the problems with the controls.

[Brother Leon]

Is the Multiple Main character theory dismissed then?

[Scarlett.]

Is the Multiple Main character theory dismissed then?

Seems like it, I couldnt see R* doing that anyway, it lessens the focus on character, maybe there will be DLC protagonists like GTA IV though. I always hoped the suit guy would be the protagonist, he just seems more interesting than a street level gangsta

[reece(:]

So excited!:D

[Shaun]

graphics look awesome :D

[Sam:)]

I usually get halfway through it, then just play for fun and kill hookers and stuff

[Scarlett.]

I love the stories in the GTA games, though I do enjoy going on killing streaks...ahem D:

[Niall]

It looks incredible! :amazed:

[Scarlett.]

I can't wait until the three new screenshots later this week, I wonder what the theme will be for them?

[arista]

Like the Fighter Jet


Do you have a UK Month release date?

[Scarlett.]

There isnt one as of yet, but it will most likely be out around March next year, it's definately releasing in this financial year

[Ramsay]

:amazed:

[Brother Leon]

The suit guy looks like someone who would usually give you missions in a GTA game. Would be interesting to actually be him.

[CharlieO]

:amazed: Planes and bikes are back

cannot wait. graphics look so good!

[Scotty07]

Keep trying to avoid any screenshots, but can't help myself. Looks amazing, glad they aren't rushing it.:lovedup:

[Munchkins]

I love Grand theft auto - but i never do any missions i just go around killing people :L

[Me. I Am Salman]

Can't wait for this!!

[Scarlett.]

Thats what I like about him, he seems different

Keep trying to avoid any screenshots, but can't help myself. Looks amazing, glad they aren't rushing it.:lovedup:

Thankfully Rockstar don't spoil too much

[Scarlett.]

I just noticed the main website has been updated with the screenshots, with three empty spaces for the shots coming later this week :D

[Ninastar]

:amazed:

[Doogle]

Those graphics... :amazed:

I hope there's more to do in terms of exploring the city.

[Scarlett.]

The shot with the bike looks like Blackpool lmao

[Iceman]

Looking good

[Scarlett.]

The dirt bikes shot looks amazing, also, there's room for three more screenshots on the website

[Jordan.]

Yeah just noticed that, looking forward to seeing even more :amazed:

[Scarlett.]

Its about time Rockstar cracked out the pictures, I wonder if we can expect a new trailer soon? Or perhaps a reveal?

[Scarlett.]

Looks like the dirt bike screenshot is from this mountain

Was thinking this too. I reckon a new trailer early September

[Scarlett.]

Was thinking this too. I reckon a new trailer early September
I hope so :D hopefully we'll finally have the protagonist confirmed too!

I think we might be getting three more screenshots on friday :D

[Iceman]

:D I cant wait for this now....

[Scarlett.]

I'm wondering if the multiple protagonist thing is true now, since that guy on the parachute doesnt look like suit guy

[Iceman]

http://www.zavvi.com/games/platforms/ps3/gta-grand-theft-auto-v-5/10569986.html

I know its only Zavii but it has a release of November 22nd :crazy:

(I saw this from DS by the way)

[Iceman]

(I saw this from DS by the way)

[Scarlett.]

I wouldn't trust it, from the way Rockstar operates, no one will know when its coming out until the next trailer says so.

[Iceman]

I know but we can hope eh?

[Scarlett.]

Meh, no point in hoping for it in November, it'll come out early next year, but that means we have months of Rockstar treating us ahead.

[Brother Leon]

Might just be a random guy like the people on the bikes etc.

[Scarlett.]

Could be, the guy on the parachute might just be a demonstration, where as with suit guy he was definately a protagonist

[Scarlett.]

Hopefully we'll get another trailer soon and find out :suspect:

[Patrick]

So I'm the only one who thinks the graphics are nothing special :laugh:

[Patrick]

And why does everyone care who the protagonist is? :laugh: Nothing majorly important.

[Scarlett.]

And why does everyone care who the protagonist is? :laugh: Nothing majorly important.

Well everyone want to know who they're going to be playing as :joker: and I think the graphics are awesome for a game that is going to be so big

[Brother Leon]

How is the person you will be playing as in the whole game not anything important? Lol

Probably the most important thing after the setting.

[SharkAttack]

How is the person you will be playing as in the whole game not anything important? Lol

Probably the most important thing after the setting.

It's one of the reasons I really enjoyed a game like Saints Row the Third where you can create your own of either gender with a kabillion feature controls and even voice tone. But I tend to enjoy Rockstar's inventions and trust they'll make another cool one for us. :hugesmile:

[Scarlett.]

Maybe we're looking at the first picture wrong, maybe suit guy has jacked the police car and is running alongside the truck, so that he can keep an eye on his buddy - in fact that makes more sense, since I can't see us being able to climb on trucks in game.

Also, suit guy was wearing a suit....in a jet fighter...lol

[MeMyselfAndI]

lmao it's ages

[Niall]

If its nine months I will chug some bleach right now because I can't wait that long

[Scarlett.]

It's not, only believe what Rockstar say, not anyone else. It's likely going to be out early next year

[bbfan1991]

It's not, only believe what Rockstar say, not anyone else. It's likely going to be out early next year

Indeed, most rumours are based on experts making predictions with nothing to base it on. Best to wait until an official announcement from Rockstar themselves!

I would rather wait so they can take their time developing the game and pull out all the stops so they can really justify the hype;).

[Scarlett.]

http://www.cinemablend.com/images/sections/48036/_1349993572.jpg

Rockstar's highly anticipated open-world dramatic action game, Grand Theft Auto V will finally be on the receiving end of legitimate news coverage. No more trolling, no more fake videos, no more fake rumors. Game Informer will have the official scoop in their December issue.

After a year of speculation based on a couple of screenshots and a single teaser trailer, gamers are finally being treated to some real information on GTA V as Rockstar readies for the PR hype-train that leads up to the game's official release, presumably sometime in the spring of 2013.

Gaming Everything managed to spot the tweet from editor-in-chief at Game Informer, Andy McNamara, who informed gamers via Twitter that...

“I’m about to make some of my haters very happy. In NYC, about to check out December’s cover game #GTAV”

Sweet. Now that's some good news. I was getting pretty tired of all those “My friend used to work for Rockstar” rumors and “Oh look, check out this new video of GTA V” and it really wasn't anything more than a tech demo.

So basically we're all really just going to ignore all the content of Game Informer's November issue as we salivate over the potential unveiling of giddy-worthy new details for the biggest game of 2013, Grand Theft Auto V. You might want to equip a pair of Flameproof jockstraps, but not for raging purposes...mostly it's so you don't make a mess of your room when you finally see the December issue of Game Informer.

[Brother Leon]

Can't wait.

[Ramsay]

Oh. :blush2: I am desperate to know anyway I want this game so bad it's painful.

[Scarlett.]

Haha, same here, not long to go now hopefully

[Brother Leon]

And why does everyone care who the protagonist is? :laugh: Nothing majorly important.

Post still makes me laugh. We need a new page :joker:

[Scarlett.]

Well the artwork pretty much proves who it is, lol

[bbfan1991]

Bring on the news, next year I reckon still in terms of the game release LOL.

[Scarlett.]

I think March or April

[bbfan1991]

I hope it is in March, so I can play it on my birthday:D.

[Scarlett.]

I kinda want the new protaganist to be like Walter White lol, I mean, I can't be the only one who thought of Breaking Bad with that artwork lol

http://i.imgur.com/zchCTl.jpg

[bbfan1991]

A female protaganist would have been interesting?

[Scarlett.]

I dont know, it'd be somehow hard to pull off without going into predictable territory, female criminals always seem to have the same character traits for some reason.

[bbfan1991]

I hope there will be plenty of off mission activities too like the gym or being able to swim underwater, burglary missions etc.

Agreed. It's very hard to forget about it, even though the release dates are several years apart. When I'm playing the game, I'm already thinking about the next one that they'll be working on. :joker:

Oh IV now... the first thing that happens when I turn it on is Dwayne asking if I want to go bowling http://www.gifmix.net/smiley.php?image=annoyed-smilies/29.gif Hopefully we'll have less of this in V.

[bbfan1991]

Yeah that does get annoying, but I do like the social aspect where you can hang around with characters outside of missions.

[Scarlett.]

I hope they keep it, but make it so we ring them, instead of them ringing us

[arista]

Yeah that does get annoying, but I do like the social aspect where you can hang around with characters outside of missions.


No as thats some Bitch

The new artwork is VERY GTA...not sure what to think

[Brother Leon]

San Andreas memories are flooding back with that new piece of artwork. :lovedup:

[Scarlett.]

Closer pic, it's definately Rockstar quality
http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/7885/13683390.png

Not to mention it has the EU rating system, most fakers would go with the US system, as it is simpler.

On another note: Dogs confirmed?

[Scarlett.]

The GTAV.net fansite is saying 'expect an official announcement very soon'

[Brother Leon]

Can't...hold...it..in..any...longer.....

[Scarlett.]

I wonder if there will be a co-op campaign with the guy with the dog and the white old man?

[Brother Leon]

wasn't the guy with the dog in the trailer at one point?

Certainly looks like him.

[Brother Leon]

wasn't the guy with the dog in the trailer at one point?

[bbfan1991]

I thought that older guy with the suit was going to be the main character?

[Scarlett.]

Yeah, he might be the guy who ran down the alley, or even the guy in the red car.

@BBfan1991 he probably will be

[Scarlett.]

Here's the images again (other site took them down for overusing bandwidth)

[Brother Leon]

Yeah, he looks like the guy in the flashy car. The old man and him are clearly the important characters. Hope we don't change characters though.

[Scarlett.]

Yeah same here, I wouldnt mind two seperate campaigns though, as long as they didnt get in each others way

[Novo]

I am going to play through San Andreas again soon, probably next month actually

[Novo]

Would play GTAIV again but i found it really plain apart from some good missions like the one where you rob the bank with that Irish guy

[Ramsay]

OG LOC BABY

[bbfan1991]

San Andreas was class, shame they removed the software that let you play on PS2 games on the PS3:bawling:.

[Scarlett.]

San Andreas is on PSN is it not? I know its on Xbox Live

No but it will be soon I think?

[Scarlett.]

Judging by the new artwork

Different types of guns can be used on quad bikes
Police women!
Desert area!

[bbfan1991]

It looks so cool. I hope there are burglary missions too like they were on San Andreas and quarry ones etc.

[Scarlett.]

I get the impression that it's gonna be a very fun orientated game after seeing these artworks

[bbfan1991]

Back to basics again. It was not most GTA fans cup of tea but I quite liked the fact that GTA IV was more serious.

[Scarlett.]

Yeah, GTA IV's story was amazingly done, especially seeing it from different points of view.

I hope V has an interesting story too

[Me. I Am Salman]

It needs to hurry up and release already :love:

[Ramsay]

So spring 2013? not too shabby

[bbfan1991]

It allows more time to build up the development (if it has still not been finished), hype and excitement, which is obviously what Rockstar need in a business sense:).

[Scarlett.]

I hope we get a second trailer soon

[bbfan1991]

One in time for Christmas would be good, to capitalise on all the hype that normally goes on around that time.

[Scarlett.]

I think we're gonna get one before the Game Informer article comes out

[Jordan.]

Quads :worship:

[Niall]

This game will probably make me fail my A2 exams if it comes out in Spring but it'll be worth it I think. :love:

[Scarlett.]

http://media.rockstargames.com/rockstargames/img/global/news/upload/actual_1351545051.jpg

Today, we're proud to announce that Grand Theft Auto V is expected to launch worldwide spring 2013 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

Developed by series creator Rockstar North, Grand Theft Auto V takes place in a re-imagined, present-day Southern California in the largest and most thriving game-world we have ever created set in the sprawling city of Los Santos and for miles beyond – from the tops of the mountains to the depths of the ocean.
Starting next week November 5, 2012, Grand Theft Auto V will become available for pre-order everywhere and fans can expect a host of new information to become available in November.

Look for downloadable desktop versions of the brand new artwork above coming very soon.

[Niall]

I am pre-ordering the second it becomes available. :amazed:

And that artwork with the iPhone parody omg. :laugh:

[Doogle]

There needs to be way more to do. If not I'll stick to driving around Liberty City and crashing into everyone

[King Gizzard]

taxi game, that's all I ask for

[King Gizzard]

There needs to be way more to do. If not I'll stick to driving around Liberty City and crashing into everyone

I've only really played Vice City and that's all I did on it :laugh: I'm **** at missions/these kind of games in general

[Scarlett.]

Anyone notice "depths of the ocean"?

Yay! Diving is back!

[Doogle]

I've only really played Vice City and that's all I did on it :laugh: I'm **** at missions/these kind of games in general

Yeah likewise with GTA 4, I tried to do it properly but half way through the mission I got bored, cheated and got all the good weapons, and killed everyone in the mission. :joker:

[Niall]

There needs to be way more to do. If not I'll stick to driving around Liberty City and crashing into everyone

I think there's gonna be **** tonnes of stuff to do. I mean just look at all the crap that happened in the teaser trailer.

Hell the environment looks so expansive and detailed I'm sure just driving around it doing nothing will be more than enough to do.

[Scarlett.]

I cant wait to drive off some mountains :D

[Me. I Am Salman]

San Andreas was the most fun with cheat codes.. the jet pack lmfao

Didn't use any cheats on GTA IV though and I found it easier than San Andreas

[SharkAttack]

Hope I get to drive by my house in this game. http://i395.photobucket.com/albums/pp32/sharkattack_torrential/wink.gif

Spring is good. Half expecting them to say October of 2013. *That* would have been a miserable wait.

[Ramsay]

Surely it has to be released on PC too?

[Brother Leon]

Surely it has to be released on PC too?

PC date is usually later I think.

[Scarlett.]

Hey guys, glad to see so much enthusiasm about the release announcement. For those asking about the PC platform, we're currently focused on the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game and don't have any details to share about a PC version at this time. Anyone that continues to spam the comments section will have their commenting privileges suspended.

Apparently GTAV wont be out in March, so that narrows it down to April/May/June

June would be brilliant. Enough time to explode of excitement and late enough for it not to effect my Uni work.

It also sounds as if the second trailer is coming today or tommorow

[bbfan1991]

Grand Theft Auto 5 will not be released until April 2013 at the earliest, Take-Two has revealed.

Confirmed for a spring release earlier this week, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick told investors that the game wouldn't launch until the next fiscal year, which runs from April 2013 to the end of March the following year, reports Videogamer.

"As a result, we continue to expect to deliver revenue growth and non-GAAP profits for fiscal year 2013 even without a major new release of Grand Theft Auto, and we're positioned to generate substantial revenue and earnings growth in fiscal 2014," explained Zelnick.

Chief financial officer Lainie Goldstein also confirmed the news, saying: "We've announced that it's during spring 2013 release time period, and not in this fiscal year."

During the same financial call, Zelnick promised a "ground-breaking" title, before hinting at more triple-A downloadable content.

"I think you can safely assume that Rockstar, as the label that led the charge in downloadable content with Grand Theft Auto 4 - I think you'd have every reason to believe, purely because of the ground-breaking nature of the title itself and the multiplayer in the title, that there's going to be a lot of interesting stuff. But I'll leave that to Rockstar to announce."

Announced last year, Grand Theft Auto 5 is thought to follow the exploits of lead character Albert De Silva, played by Ned Luke.

Set in Los Santos, which is loosely based on present-day Southern California, the game is said to take place in "the largest and most thriving game-world" Rockstar has ever created.

It has previously been tipped for an October release, following a leaked developer CV.

[Scarlett.]

http://i.imgur.com/7modBl.jpg

[bbfan1991]

Is pre order just for the US so far or for everyone?

[Scarlett.]

I saw one for GAME earlier today, but dismissed it as fake, until those items leaked

[bbfan1991]

Phew:blush:. I have a game card, so it will be put to good use again!

[arista]

Phew:blush:. I have a game card, so it will be put to good use again!


But will Game Stores still be trading next spring?

[Scarlett.]

Just realised that 2nd Nov 2011 was the release date of the first trailer, it's looking likely that the second trailer is coming 2nd Nov 2012

[SharkAttack]

Just realised that 2nd Nov 2011 was the release date of the first trailer, it's looking likely that the second trailer is coming 2nd Nov 2012

It's been a year since the first one :o

-faps-

[Scarlett.]

I wonder if there will be horses in the game O_O

[Shaun]

I suppose after RDD they can format horse-riding now... :suspect: I hope they don't go overkill on the new features though and have concentrated on a good story & missions

[Scarlett.]

Can you imagine going on a crime spree in Los Santos on horseback? lmao

[Scarlett.]

From R*

We are working on a second trailer - unfortunately Hurricane Sandy has derailed our plans somewhat but we will have something to show soon. Its hard to be precise as we have no power whatsoever in our New York office. We hope everyone else in affected areas is doing okay.

[Ramsay]

Damn you mother nature!!!

[Niall]

****ING HURRICANE SANDy. :mad:

[Doogle]

At least there's a valid excuse, I was expecting something pathetic/no excuse

[Scarlett.]

To think, we'd have actually had the trailer now if it wasnt for that ***** of a hurricane

[SharkAttack]

Stupid hurricane! http://i395.photobucket.com/albums/pp32/sharkattack_torrential/shoot2.gif http://i395.photobucket.com/albums/pp32/sharkattack_torrential/bf-hurrismileypalm.gif

[Brother Leon]

Mother Nature defeats us again :(

[Scarlett.]

"We're OK, everything should be back to normal very soon. Thanks for the concern."

A comment from R* on the newswire comments, sounds like they might be getting power back soonish

[Petershaw1984]

Can you imagine going on a crime spree in Los Santos on horseback? lmao

It would abso flipping lutly amazing...... cant wait

[Scarlett.]

I suspect the new trailer will come alongside the release of the Game Informer article now, Lower Manhattan (and R* HQ) has power again, but they're not back in until Monday, and even then they will need to sort the place out and have a few days to finish the trailer.

[Scarlett.]

Some better versions of already released stuff (Large pictures)

[Scarlett.]

Think the trailer will be out by monday?

[Scarlett.]

Possibly, Manhattan has power back now, so hopefully they will be able to finish it off and post it on Monday

[Scarlett.]

Latest news from R* HQ
@ROCKSTAR_THEBEST We're hoping to have things fully functional beginning next week

[bbfan1991]

Understandable that HS has delayed things, although it is exciting that we should have another trailer soon:).

So who do we think will be the main character then?

[Scarlett.]

R* in regards to the trailer
We haven't yet said when it will be releasing, but keep in mind that when we do make an announcement, it won't be in a comment. We're glad you guys are pumped.

[Scarlett.]

So this happened on the Xbox Youtube app, if the trailer was coming today (or in the following days) it would have been uploaded as an unlisted video, which looks like what has happened here

A user from GameFaqs named AP15 claims to have an early access to Gameinformer December issue. Of course, the December issue info is definitely going to be the Grand Theft Auto’s details.

The brand new information from December issue of Gameinformer can be found below:

-You play as Albert DeSilva a half american half puerto rican american
-He is 42 years old and has an ex wife and 2 kids
- the show breaking bad has a little influence on the game as Albert is drawn to the life of crime from an older age for the money.
-You also play as Dougie Vejo a younger criminal just coming up in Los Santos
-Los Santos is the only large city, smaller towns round out the countrtyside.
- Grove Street makes a return, however Carl and Sweet are not in the game.
-Money plays a large part as Albert lost most of his in a ponzi like scheme.
-Property buying is back
-The only customization for characters are clothes/hair/facial hair. no gyms or tattoos
-one or more characters from 4 may show up
-car customization is back, seems more fitting for Dougie however Albert may be going through a midlife crisis.
-the triumphant return of Lovefist!!! or as the band is now known as the Jezzies.
-Songs confirmed so far: My Michelle-Guns and Roses, Magic Power- Triumph, California Dreaming- The beach boys and Beautiful-Snoop Dogg featuring Pharrell.
-New mini games include golf, tennis and surfing
- Mission played was called “Alimony” featured the scene from the trailer in which they rob the jewelry store
more info soon!!!

[Ramsay]

I dont care if Carl and Sweet are not in the game i just want OG LOC to be back!

[Black Dagger]

I can't even remember who Sweet was and I wasn't a major fan of playing as Carl, so no major loss.

[Scarlett.]

You'll know when its a real GI leak, cause pictures will be posted of the magazine

[Scarlett.]

http://media.rockstargames.com/rockstargames/img/global/news/upload/actual_1352056603.jpg

Starting today, Grand Theft Auto V is officially available for pre-order everywhere. For those of you that might prefer online retail to the more traditional brick and mortar, we've included a list of links to some popular retailers below (we'll add additional international retail links here as they become available).

We're also making available the newest official artwork from the game that was featured in last week's announcement. Grab “Beach Weather” from the Rockstar Downloads page and look for much, much more to be revealed - including the Game Informer cover story later this week as well as an update on the release of the next official trailer.


I dont get why they cant just say when the trailer is out now

[Brother Leon]

- Grove Street makes a return, however Carl and Sweet are not in the game.
-The only customization for characters are clothes/hair/facial hair. no gyms or tattoos

:(

[Scarlett.]

It's a fake, Game Informer have even said so themselves.

[Brother Leon]

Oh. Cool Cool. Don't expect CJ or Sweet to be back as they would be ancient tbh, but I would like abit more customization than IV.

[Scarlett.]

Yeah, the GI article is only 3 days away now, and it's expected to actually leak before then :p

[Brother Leon]

Might actually buy this magazine from WHSmith, even if it would be all over the net.


EDIT: You can't lol

[Scarlett.]

It's a US magazine, we cant get it over here, well we could, but it'd be a digital version and would cost £14 :p

[Ramsay]

Aye was thinking it might be fake, couldnt help myself getting warped in though lool
Wouldnt say they would be ancient though, maybe late 40s?

[Brother Leon]

Yeah, that sucks lol.


Apparently it is on iPad though. Don't fancy the price though. Save image the pages from the net it is :p :joker:

[Ramsay]

Still think its a crime they didnt make a San Andreas Stories with Carl and Sweet's brother as the main character

[Scarlett.]

Yeah, with any hope someone will get the magazine tommorow

I remember the ME3 Game Informer mag was leaked early too :p

I forgot we never went back to San Andreas again lol

[Brother Leon]

Yeah. One of the reasons why I think we should definitely see some SA characters in this.


Should of made Vice City & San Andreas stories tbh. Although Liberty City Stories was a decent game too.

[Scarlett.]

There was a Vice City Stories lol

[Ramsay]

They did make Vice City Stories didnt they? With Victor Vance?

[Brother Leon]

Yeah. I meant as in should of made those two instead of Vice City & Liberty City :p

[SharkAttack]

They did make Vice City Stories didnt they? With Victor Vance?

Yes. http://i395.photobucket.com/albums/pp32/sharkattack_torrential/yes.gif Have that one too. Would have really enjoyed a San Andreas Stories, feels like something is missing.

[Scarlett.]

http://media.rockstargames.com/rockstargames/img/global/news/upload/actual_1352151155.jpg

[SharkAttack]

At least we have a date now. Haven't bothered to look anywhere else for information on this game since Chewy has it all covered right here. :joker:

[Ramsay]

Thats ages away :(

[Scarlett.]

We still have the magazine article in a few days that will have loads of new stuff in :D

[Black Dagger]

HFHDFGFGFGF. yay

[Scarlett.]

http://www.gta-sanandreas.com/characters/images/bdup.jpg

So 'The Game' who voiced B-Dup in San Andreas has confirmed he's been doing a little bit of work with Rockstar on GTA V (He talks about it at the 3:50 mark)

a8HswkiR1aE

[bbfan1991]

Can't wait till next week now:D.

I hope we see some former San Andreas characters?

[Scarlett.]

If B-Dup is actually in there, then we might :D

[bbfan1991]

Seeing Carl again would be good and seeing what happened to him after finally getting revenge on Big Smoke.

[Scarlett.]

Yeah, seeing Sweet again would interesting too, that if he didnt get himself killed/incarcerated/fell off a cliff/got run over/got crushed by the size of his own ego

[Ramsay]

:joker::joker:

[Brother Leon]

B Dup was such a prick :laugh:

Good news though. Hoping for more characters we may not of known properly in San Andreas. I kinda feel that they will give us a CJ & Sweet easter egg, but not as actual characters. Good enough tbf.

[Ramsay]

Seriously all we need is OG Loc

[SharkAttack]

Seriously all we need is OG Loc

Out of all the old characters, I'd like to have this guy back as well. :dance:

[bbfan1991]

OG Loc was hilarious. The whole Vinewood thing made me LOL and that mansion was quality!

[Scarlett.]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/A7CGNi9CcAEyv-P.jpg

[Ramsay]

OMG ITS BIG SMOKE
/stupidcapsithoughtwecouldpostincapsnow****sake

[Scarlett.]

Actually it might be fake :/

[Ramsay]

Looks legit tho?

[Scarlett.]

That's what I thought, guess we'll have to wait and see lol

[bbfan1991]

I hope they bring Taxi missions back:blush:.

[Brother Leon]

The T shirt reminds me The Truth from San Andreas. What a character he was :laugh:

[Munchkins]

Money needs to be put aside for this

[Gstar]

Money needs to be put aside for this

This.

[Munchkins]

This.

I feel like the only girl who plays it,, but i dont even care :laugh:

[SharkAttack]

Hope they somehow get Tommy Vercetti in there. That pic brings back some good memories. :D

[Scarlett.]

I've digitally subscribed to Game Informer's digital edition, so as soon as it is out, I'll get screenshots and **** for you all.

[Brother Leon]

:worship:

[Munchkins]

I've digitally subscribed to Game Informer's digital edition, so as soon as it is out, I'll get screenshots and **** for you all.

Why thank you :)

[Scarlett.]

Looks like there might be an issue, my bank (acting like the complete ******* they are), seem to have declined the payment, probably because they're not clever enough to realise it was an online payment, and that I hadnt teleported over to America in a matter of hours.

[Scarlett.]

Yeah, looks like it wont be sorted in time for Thursday, so I'm gonna cancel it, sorry guys.

Hopefully someone will post screenshots anyway.
