Blessorship Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) GTA: Grand Theft Auto V (5) PS3 | Zavvi.com http://www.thehut.com/games/platforms/ps3/gta-grand-theft-auto-v-5/10569986.html Nothing from Amazon, Gamestop, Game.co.uk yet. Still waiting for a more well known retailer to change the release date from TBD. I know online retailers aren't always right about these things. Maybe someone is knowledgable about Zavvis track record on these things? I really hope it's true. I've been dying for more info on GTA V.

chrisheadshot Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I've gotten my hopes up before for online retailer leaks and they've always resulted in dissapointment so ill just call fake til rockstar confirms.

Blessorship Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 I've gotten my hopes up before for online retailer leaks and they've always resulted in dissapointment so ill just call fake til rockstar confirms. Would love that release date though I hear ya. I immediately sent a tweet to @RockstarGames on twitter when I saw this. They haven't replied yet. Hopefully they will though. I've also found another online retailer that lists release as November 23rd. GTA: Grand Theft Auto V (5) PS3 | TheHut.com But who knows, these retailers may just be trying to get people to pre-order from them. The date may not be accurate. No listing from amazon or gamestop yet. When I see it there I will beleive it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewbacon Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I think it's WAY too early to be speculating on release dates for a game that will probably have a few delays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving On Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Also, November 23 would probably be the last week for major game releases of the year. I remember pretty much nothing of any interest came out after that date in 2011, so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch that this would be the end of the fall gaming season this year as well. So when an online retailer thinks the game is still coming out in 2012, he's trying to err on the side of caution by just putting the game down in the last week of big releases. Long story short: I'd say this is pure speculation. The game could be released in the fall gaming season of 2012, but early 2013 is just as big a possibility, if you ask me.

Jake_357 Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Makes sense for 1 thing... Christmas. Other than that? Total bullshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHChiBulls Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Gran Turismo 5 came out on November 24th, so it wouldn't be totally surprising. Then again, November 23rd is a Friday. How many major video games are released on a Friday? (I envision someone coming up with a list of all the Friday video game releases in history to pawn me ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mugiwara84 Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Zavvi has been wrong like a million times . Having FF XIII-2 listed for december, Tales of Grace for januari, Darksiders 2 for februari and then april and now it's the 23rd of june and to just name a few recently where they were seriously wrong and that I can think of.

Cory_Baumann Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Whenever the actual release is, Im still Pre-Ordering it for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunterelf Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Nov seems plausible, since R* tend to release trailers and dev videos a few months from release(RDR,LA Noire, Max Payne) maybe even earlier than that if you ask me. I say maybe Sep or Oct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving On Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Anyone who thinks this will be release before April 2013, is quite frankly, a fool. One can always hope, right? I'm not expecting the game to be released in 2012 anymore, but if it does, I sure won't complain one bit. Fortunately, there are enough good games coming up this year to keep me busy.

GLiMpZe Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 theres a snowballs chance in hell that this game is releasing this year..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gtamen Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 theres a snowballs chance in hell that this game is releasing this year..... Facts/Theory why it will: -All GTAs except GTA IV were released in October -It was annouched in October last year. Most games get annouched a year before release - If the first trailer releases the game is done at least 70% - In January Take-Two told that GTA V is making great progress -Its been in development since December 2008 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember where I saw that, but it was a good source that I saw it from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dz06lt Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 You would think that people would know what a "placeholder" is by now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornagandarub Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 You would think that people would know what a "placeholder" is by now.... NO. IT'S FACT, DUH. I READ IT ON THE INTERNET, TRUST. Seriously though, I expect it would be released in Q4 2012/Q1 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Nov 23rd is a feasible date. Just in time for Christmas. But of course it could be February or some shit too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dz06lt Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Nov 23rd is too late in the season, most major releases are before mid november. Not to mention that take2 & rockstar have plenty on their plate this year with Spec Ops the Line, Max Payne 3 and Borderlands 2 dropping this year. They will need a major release for 2013 this will likley be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, lets look at their most recent games: GTAIV: April 29th 2008 Red Dead Redemption: May 18th 2010 Max Payne 3: May 15th 2012 Edited February 23, 2012 by Cornagandarub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dz06lt Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 You forgot LA Noir Last year and max payne is 2012, see companies are about maintianing profit and revenue streams. So Next may now seems like the most likley release date with a full reveal at this years E3. That would be very likely as well. Hell, lets look at their most recent games: GTAIV: April 29th 2008 Red Dead Redemption: May 18th 2010 LA Noir: May 17th 2011 Max Payne 3: May 15th 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
