The next cover of GI pretty much tells us that GTA V is NOT going to come out in 2012.

Maybe Rockstar aren't doing any magazine previews this time.

But you're right...2013

[Ruscris2]

Yeah i feel the same. 2013 then guys.

Just let it go. This cover was pretty much what was going to determine if it is 2012 or 2013. Now we can be 100% sure that GTA V cannot come out in 2012.

Well, a November/December release is still very possible. But I'm not hopeful.

I don't think that is possible. You are talking about two months marketing? Impossible.

[baguvix_wanrltw]

August/October was my oldest hope; I had lost hope in it a while ago but now that one can almost definitely be buried. 2013 it is.

[theomenofficial]

There is still small hope for 2012.

There was never a GI cover story for Red Dead Redemption. The fact remains GTA V must come out soon enough for Take-Two to make the financial goal by March that they restated two days ago and it's a steep hill to climb if it's January or later.

Look at the stocks:

7.41

I wonder how TTWO feels right now...

Just keep hammering on that panic button guys. They've got you just where they want you. All worked up.

The game will be out for Christmas. Guaranteed. No need for a GI cover in August when the game is 4 months away. Everybody's freaking out because there's no info, no GI cover and all that when we're only at the beginning of August. LOADS of time to do what they need to do. Believe me, if they're sticking to their revenue forecast, the game will HAVE TO come out by year's end.

Yea it's possible, but it's not gonna happen.
I'm still looking for a March 2013.

[MosquitoSmasher]

It could come out in December for all we know...and in that case there's enough time for marketing. August has only just begun guys..let's wait at least for the end of this month to see if we get any updates from Rockstar or more Epsilon stuff.

[GTAfiveFAN]

No way they can start a solid marketing campaign in such little time. 2013 is pretty much guaranteed .

November with only three months of marketing (assuming it begins immediately)? No.
And when do big titles ever release in December? Almost never.

Just look at the facts, how is it possible for GTA V to come out this year? No info on Newswire, no GTA V cover, nothing at conference meeting. Just face it, GTA V is coming out in 2013.

And before people say "oh but GTA doesn't need marketing" of course it does. More marketing = more sales. That's a fact, that's why things are marketed. There's no good reason for Rockstar to market the game less than past releases.

[deffpony]

I don't cbout the release date. I just want to know more about the god damn game. Who the f*ck is the protagonist

Finally someone with sense. When I see Jack Thompson going at it again on CNN, Trailer #2, #3. and TV Spot #1, we'll know when GTA V has set sail on marketing.
