While Call of Duty remains one of the industry's most consistent moneymakers, it has begun to see a slow decline in sales over the last few years. On top of that, Activision revealed that the number of pre-orders for Call of Duty: Ghosts have been a little lower than expected - subsequently blaming the discrepancy on confusion over the next generation launch. Piling the odds against the game even further, this year they'll be up against Battlefield 4 , which is expected to be chasing sales records as w

While the odds of a next-gen console release remain relatively slim it's important to note that the move does make sense from a business perspective. Given the time taken to produce an expected PC port, Rockstar could certainly afford to put together a PS4/Xbox One upgrade at the same time. Indeed, the recent success of Crystal Dynamic's Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition demonstrates the viability of such a move — a minimum of fuss for a maximum of pro

Well, I think I've covered most of the key information, so what do you all think? Personally, I'm intrigued by the narrative implications of having three playable protagonists but as someone who was less than impressed with GTA IV , I will remain skeptical.

While some forum users have objected to SuperGamer's listing on the grounds that it displays the unofficially defunct 'Games For Windows Live' tag, it's important to remember that many retailers employ mock-ups when advertising similar pre-ord

While Fonteno did not explicitly state that the DLC in question is for GTA V 's story mode, it is incredibly likely. This time last year, Rockstar explained that "For those ready to jump back into the story of Grand Theft Auto V, we have big plans for substantial additions in 2014 continuing Michael, Franklin and Trevor's action, mayhem and unexpected adventures in Southern San Andre

Aside from BioShock Infinite , we know Rockstar parent company Take-Two Interactive is looking for major revenue booster in 2013, and with Game Informer teasing Grand Theft Auto V as their December cover just hours ago, it might not be long before a return to Los Santos finds its way onto corporate and consumer calendars al

Funnily enough, now it seems like Activision might be beginning to overestimate what is feasible for the series. Just a few weeks ago Grand Theft Auto V became the most successful entertainment franchise ever. Making $1 billion in just 3 days , the success of the game was extraordinary. Prior to that, Call of Duty: Black Ops was the most successful video game title and it seems like Activision isn't willing to let that record go just

In the hopes of delivering a message to Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive, fans of the OpenIV modding tool have amassed over 40 thousand signatures on their Change.org petition . The petition states that thousands of players have both lost the ability to mod their game and to pursue their passion for single-player modd

I think it was really useful on the PS2-ear games for bringing these somewhat simplistic characters to life. But when we went to PS3 and 360 I think it would become a distraction if you were like, 'Well that's a famous person.' Suddenly these characters start to feel like they were alive a lot more and you need that to sell them. As long as you have good actors, not knowing them actually is an advantage in terms of bringing the game to life. I can't see us moving past that for major parts in the game.

According to Rockstar Games (the publisher and developer of the Grand Theft Auto franchise), the size of Grand Theft Auto V 's map is bigger than Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas , Grand Theft Auto IV and Red Dead Redemption 's maps combined. But the picturesque Los Santos setting isn't all palm trees, mountains and the occasional flurry of snow ; GTA V is filled with a wealth of things to

Offering four games in one box on what has to several discs, Rockstar Games Collection: Edition 1 has been announced for the cost of $59.99 - the orthodox price point for one game. Bundled into the package is L.A. Noire (2010); Red Dead Redemption (2009); Midnight Club: Los Angeles - Complete Edition (the tricked-out version of 2008's MC:LA ); and Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City ( GTA IV's DLC compilation of The Lost and the Damned and The Ballad of Gay Ton

The DLC timeline of GTA IV also suggests that GTA 5 Online Guide|Https://Gta5Play.Com/ V could be in line for some story DLC of its own soon. GTA IV 's The Ballad of Gay Tony and Lost and Damned DLC packs were released less than a year and a half after the release of the core game - so if Rockstar is employing a similar release strategy, we'd better get our wallets re

Let's start with the three protagonists mentioned earlier today. GTA V will allow players to take control of three protagonists called Michael (pictured above), Trevor and Franklin. The protagonist's all contribute to GTA V's intertwining narrative and Rockstar allows players to freely switch between the three characters at any time.
