Take-Two isn't announcing anything about GTA5
NewsPosted 02/09/2009 - 10:20am GMT+1
There won't be an announcement about when an announcement is going to be made either.
The second GTA4 DLC, The Ballad of Gay Tony, will be available next month, but what comes next for Rockstar's blockbuster franchise?
Asked during last night's Q3 earnings call to explain its strategy for the announcement of the "next GTA franchise", Take-Two chairman Straus Zelnick gave a very clear answer. There will be no announcement.
"So we’re not going to announce it, we’re not going to announce when we are going to announce it, and we are not going to announce a strategy about announcing it or about when we are going to announce it either, or about the announcement strategy surrounding the announcement of the strategy," said Zelnick.
That's pretty clear.

1. since the caucasian, italians, russians and african americans have all had a shot at being main characters only logical is an asian character (i'm caucasian btw)
2. combine best elements from each of the gtas - graphics go to gta 4, but best use of map and diversity in cityscape is san andreas, and soundtrack goes to vice city. (have a few suggestions for music but will post them at end)
3. heres an idea not only create a new map but have it so new char can travel to all previous gta cities on a whim by booking flights (like taking taxi rides)
4. Having missions invoving all previous gta main characters.
5. Ability to create own radio station by importing music into existing radio brodcasts
6. traffic that reacts normally not always running over your character or steers into your vehicle (had to redo a lot of missions just because got ran over hailing a taxi)
7. more clothing options
8. make it so char can be male or female.
Likes and Dislikes :
Like: Bring back the ability to mod ur char into either a fat slob or Arnie wannabe. Modding the char should be one time only or change appearance by going to plastic surgeon
Dislike: having to constantly go to gym to keep character fit
Like: Lots of vehicles however rockstar should have more handling options and ability to mod vehicles would be nice Also bring back the Apache helicopter and airplanes Apache was the only heli that handled properly
Dislike: Helicopter handling way to flimsy and not very manuverable. Annihilator helicopter in gta 4 was useless due to rapid drop in altitude made it difficult to lock onto targets.
Like: the date missions
Dislike: getting in game phone calls from dates/friends after accepting missions or immediately after completing missions
Like: Humour, Insults and well placed profanity as in vice city
Dislike: Having profanity used every 2 seconds as in gta 4 just for shock value
