Holy cow the amount of offtopic and whining or whatever lol, it's very odd Epsilon hasn't tweeted today, they were most likely laughing at the recent troll influx.

Sorry I couldn't help myself from bashing that person who spoiled the ending of RDR

People who think Red Dead is ruined, just play the game. I found the story to be almost as good as GTA IV. But, anyways can we please get back on topic? This is one of the only forums I find really useful on this website.

OT: I too find it odd how EpsilonismToday hasn't tweeted today. Maybe they are preparing something big? I sure hope so, those tweets are all we have now and we might as well be grateful Rockstar isn't being dead silent.

I think Rockstar Games is now officially "Max Payne 3 Games."

This Epsilon Twitter is probably nothing. I bet they are just doing it for fun. I doubt the tweets have some secret message in them. We're going to get info when we get info, simple as that.

To be cynically honest, I think it's just them starting to go completely silent on V again, with not even tweets as marketing. I mean, I hope I am wrong, but it's starting to look like rockstar wouldn't market V if Jesus Christ himself returned to earth and told them to do so.

Agreed 100%. When the Epsilon Twitter was initially discovered (& after the first few tweets), I was certain that us fans would be rewarded with a steady stream of GTA V info. But, as time continues to pass, I'm becoming a firm believer that this is just a ploy from Rockstar to get us off their backs for a good while & that this has extremely little to no relevancy to GTA V at all. Needless to say, I can't help but feel somewhat disappointed.

If you haven't finished RDR by now you deserve for it to get spoiled.

Ever heard of a f*cking spoiler tag? I just started this game for the first time. Literally just got to Blackwater. You f*cking dick.


You havent finished it yet?

Chill, i was just mocking the idea that gta V will be better than life. To the point that you get a normal job , watch your kids grow, get huge debts and you due from a terminal desease. You think thats what happens in Red Dead? Really?

youll die some day you know?

i spoiled life for you, hahahahahahahaha

If Take Two wants to reach its 1.8 billion mark by the end of this fiscal year, with around half of that coming from Rockstar, there is no way in hell that Max Payne 3 with its DLCs is going to do that. Therefore GTA V must come out around or before March to make all that money. Which means the hardcore marketing MUST start sometime during the fall. What beats me is how Bioshock Infinite has a release date while GTA V doesn't. I am aware that Rockstar doesn't want to delay the game like they did with IV, but they can at least they can give us a time frame? The Epsilon Program twitter is soon not going to be the only form of viral marketing.

Yeah because I'm sure they don't have anything better to do, obviously they made this Epsilon twitter for a reason.

Rockstar is definitely teasing us with "secret" meanings but nothing about the game so far, they've been noticeably referencing the trolls though.

That's why at this point in time, I think it was created mainly for trolling the trolls back/just for fans as well as gaining a bit of attention to V.

Not really. The hype was pretty high around July and the first week of August when we first found the Twitter.

Now most of us just gave up because nothing ever happens lol.

They could make something more out of it, we just have to wait, but for now they're making references to the wait, trolls, etc.

I've said it before and I got bashed, but I'm going to say it again. Even though it is interesting and it is of course Rocsktar behind it, I don't see how we are going to get any information through marketing of this type. It's not like they are going to post information about the protag on the twitter or drop a screenshot or two. Someone please correct me if I am wrong because I wasn't around here to see how SA and IV were marketed.

They could easily post something. Like a screenshot of LS celebs that belong to the Epsilon cult, etc. But it's obvious now that they're just messing around. Which is cool enough, but no reason to leave their Twitter open in case there's some sudden tweet.
