    Not sure if posted, but there's a second trailer on the website
    http://www.rockstargames.com/V/videos/video/10261

    Running a virus scan and the page glitched for me and saw there was trailers 3 and 4 also, but they seem to have disappeared.

    Should probably read the first post :P But looks like there's two more to come. FML, we're never going to get this game.

    I was just in HMV Galway and the have a big sign up saying GTA:V Release Date 05/04 (5th April) with the pre order posters, So it could be the real release date, if HMV and Gamestop have said it

    05/04 would be 5th April (or 4th May if the posters are from America)

    Either way, don't pre-order it in HMV

    Just the €4 or whatever it was to get the poster

    Not sure if anyone has seen this, but a member over at GTA Forums has made a 3D map of Los Santos city based on the screenshots and trailers: http://p3d.in/u75m9

    It gives a good indication of the size of the city, which is reckoned to be be slightly bigger than Liberty City was in IV.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 959 ✭✭✭guttenberg


    I don't know whether to feel amazed or sad for whomever spent the time making that! I posted a while back about another GTAForum user who was plotting the map based on photos and I could swear it was significantly different:confused:

    I'm not sure either! He seems to have been proficient with 3D modelling software though as it only took a day or two to get that far.

    Hmm, was that in the same thread? There is a comparison of various maps of the city a few pages back from the link I posted. They seem to correlate quite well. Maps of the surrounding countryside aren't up to the same standard yet, however.

    Yerra, sure at least you have the poster. :)

    And now when you preorder it somewhere else you can put both sides of your poster on the wall ;)

    "Asking nicely" is soooo 1930's :p

    In that case, you have bought a poster for €4

    A bargain considering the prices they are going for on ebay when they were out first.

    the post will be worth a few bob in time. A friend of mine sold his gta 3 and gta vice city (I think) posters and they made 60 euro each. :)

    Ya, worth a shot. My friend probly was really lucky to get that much. But you never know. :)

    Keep them. They would be worth a hell of a lot more in later years.

    It's actually the other way around.

    The only reason posters like this would ever be worth anything are because of hype. Think about how many copies of GTA 3, Vice City etc sold. Each one came with a poster. If I pick up a copy of one of those games (and they'll be cheap), there's a high probability they'll have the poster in it along with the booklet.

    Once the hype is over, these games sold so many copies that anything to do with them is worth nothing.

    Here's one with a poster that didn't even sell for 99p.

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Grand-Theft-Auto-3-With-Manual-Poster-Ps2-/221173268228?pt=UK_PC_Video_Games_Video_Games_JS&hash=item337ef43f04&nma=true&si=%2Bm52j7vycPfBHUNhvddg7IRX%2Bac%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

    Very little from this current generation of games (or even the previous generation) will ever be worth very much simply because of the vast quantities produced.

    According to GameStop the release date is sometime in March :confused:

    Either way looking forward to seeing what they have in store this time around


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 10,259 ✭✭✭✭Melion


    It's not may 4th anyway, no way would they release on a Saturday.


  • Site Banned Posts: 612 ✭✭✭Lionel Messy


    I just want the violence like hitman absolution. That game is bad to the bone. I don't mind a serious edge, there's always room for humour anyway. Hitman proves that. GTA needs more weapons again like vice city.
