Its the current favourite for the next location

I think it would be great...I mean imagine a boat chase down the Thames! or meeting east ender gangsters and football hooligans

GTA: London (or whatever name they make up) would be amazing

Definitely, espeically as The Getaway got pulled.

Aye, plus IMO the Getaway never did it justice, it was way too short and...well due to technology...not that good

The next GTA should be PS3 only due to the blu-ray.... Xbox 360 is holding it back if goes multi again!
The game will be bigger and better if blu-ray only.

Actually...GTA IV didnt even fill a 360 disc..so saying it held it back is wrong


If anything, PS3 held it back...by half a year!

Ok if the did a GTA: London, then it should be a greater London GTA style with the M25 going around the whole area.. Blu-ray is perfect for this.

So xbox 360 are the new nintendo? Holding back gaming by throwing ££££$$$$$ to keep games on its old tech console?
To be fair the nextBox has had a good start before the Mighty PS3 came out, but money and lazy dev teams find it easy to make games for the 360, but in the long run that is not the best way but money talks.. Of course.

With time more dev teams will want to make for PS3 only due to having more time on the format and its blu-ray, right now the 360 is the quick and easy option to make games, not great news if you want games to be better.

Blu-ray can give more than dvd, and over time dev teams will get better with the PS3 but will be tied to the Microsoft chains to keep it multi, in the long run that will not make games better and will only restrict dev teams.

Due to being out before PS3 and being cheaper (cheap and outdated)..

Plus the wii is for people who hate games!

I heard that Resident Evil 6 is going to be set in London :wink:

Scarlett.
31-03-2009, 01:48 PM
yeah, I agree about the Wii, anyway, this thread is about wether or not the new GTA should be in London

They should set another one in London. Many other cities have been mentioned and London is as good a setting as any.

JOSHUAH!
31-03-2009, 02:58 PM
I think they should do it in somewhere like Spain, Turkey or Japan.

The UK is too boring, but I suppose they could set it out with countryside like San Andreas, which would be cool.

Yes they should make one, it would be amazing.

Ugh I could imagine it being like a bad Guy Ritchie film..... Either way I'm not particularly bothered. I haven't played the newest one after Vice City they just didn't interest me anymore.

I don't think they will as it's been done before.
But if they did it right, it would be amazing.
I thought they were doing it in Tokyo though??

All I'm saying is that there's nothing much been done on a Blu Ray that hasn't been done on a DVD. MGS4 could be put on a DVD, maybe two at most for MGS Online. It's the future possibly but at the moment what's so great about it?

GTA: LDN
Or
GTA: London

Either way i think it would be great!! :thumbs: London has great places they can set this in!
