Whoa whoa, hold the phone. GTA5? Apparently it's a real thing now. If you visit Rockstar's website right now, all you will see is a jpeg on a black background saying "Grand Theft Auto V" and a date for the release of the trailer which is 11.02.11. Not too far off.
Wow, who else just got instantly excited for this? Thanks to @estimater for the heads-up Source [PCGamer]
It's Rockstar's 10-year anniversary and they're celebrating it by releasing the groundbreaking 3D open-world game Grand theft Auto III.
The game is said to be released later this fall but no official date or price was given. I am very curious to see how this game will play on a touch-screen or how well the controls will translate on them tiny cellphone buttons and if there will be enhancements or cut-backs due to the very different nature of the hardware that it's going to be on.
Here is the list of supported devices that the game will run on.
Apple iOS Devices: iPad 2, iPhone 4S Android Phones: Droid X2, HTC Evo 2, LG Optimus 2X, Motorola Atrix, Samsung Galaxy S2 Android Tablets: Acer Iconia, Asus Eee Pad, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

Random Gaming Post #7
No? Well I do. I found out that GTA I and II were on the original Playstation back when GTA III was the greatest game in the world at the time. Since I didn't have a PS2 or a decked out PC then, I went out and got GTA I hoping to get a similar experience but with just cheaper graphics. Before I got it, I have already played Driver and it was cool but screwing around in the open world wasn't as fun as I had hoped.
After seeing the video that I'm sharing with you right now was pretty much the same reaction I had when I first popped in GTA I. A huge "WTF" on my face and a huge feeling of disappointment, I remember telling my friend, who was with me at the time back when co-op gaming was local (yes kids, you actually had to GO to your friends' houses to play videogames together), and said "this looks like a SNES game!".
After giving the game a chance, cause I did pay for it, I came to realize that is is pretty much the same game but with the limitations of the hardware I had at my disposal. GTA I was a still a very fun game that took some getting used to but I'm glad I got it.
Grand Theft Auto: China Town Wars retains a similar birds eye view style as the old GTA games but also adapts a lot of new elements found in modern GTA titles.
So now I leave you with this video from 4playerpodcast. Watch out for the voice acting because it is FLAWLESS!
