GTA V Release date? & SimCity information

[mrwoooooooo]

i wish theyd delay GTA V for the next generation of consoles, it would be so much better

GTA V does look tempting so far, but there's not been that much info as far as I can tell.

As for SimCity. It looks good but unfortunately EA are the developers, which instantly makes it crap. Expect errors that will never be fixed, falsified advertisements and a lack of support on the majority of computers.

Publishers* Maxis are developing it like every other major SC game. The only way EA could **** it up they have by having the online requirement DRM. It's only really needed for start up, but it's still a piss take if say my internet is down.

San Andreas was released in 04, IV was released in 08. Releasing V in late 2012 early 2013 is a good idea, as we have no solid idea when the next gen of consoles will be released (with the exception of the Wii U) and with Microsoft thinking about a 10 year life span of the 360, it'd leave enough time for another 4 year cycle for VI or whatever name is appropriate.

Since Maxis became a sub. of EA they're both one in the same. If most of the EA games are anything to go by, it could be a huge let down and unbearable to play. Hopefully you're right though, and it does actually work well. EA seem undecided about online DRM requirements - one moment they're stating it will the next it won't :/

Battlefield 3 isn't unbearable to play.

Battlefield 3 isn't unbearable to play.

One of their few exceptions. If memory recalls, their football and first person shooter divisions are good. Strategy and simulation are a huge let down (C&C, Sims etc.)

These images really do look impressive, cant wait to play it!

It seems EA will have always-on DRM on Sim City. There was a news article on Destructoid where the spokesgirl speaking for Maxis said EA was 'investing quite a bit'.

Most of the websites I've seen all advertise GTAV by showing a release date of late 2012, so I don't think they're all wrong
