Maybe it could be a new custom made city not based on any real life city or previous GTA city?

Those complaining of PC performance issues on GTA IV should go get EFLC, its much better optimised for PC imo.

well i'm pee your pants excited for this. i put about 80-100 hours into gta4 and the first expansion. haven't even played gay tony yet...

:D You are so excited you are going to pee someone elses pants? I like your style (Y)

I bought the gta pack when it was super cheap on steam the other day but I've never actually played beyond GTA2, now I have the games I guess I should start :) Should I play through them in order or just go for the most recent one?

They should put an iPhone instead, so we could set it in Airplane mode to stop receiving calls and emails.

You can turn it off.

BTW, this is another San Andreas, in the same universe as GTA4, and the gang turf stuff will be part of the multiplayer.

Obligatory take-with-a large-grain-of-salt disclaimer applies:

Grand Theft Auto V Details Leaked?

It's always impossible in these situations to tell whether its a 14 year old with too much time on their hands or whether its a genuine leak, I'll leave it for you to decide.

gtav-leak-1.png

As always in these situations, take with an absolute pinch of salt. Especially since the source on this one is 4chan, the poster of course being anonymous. The person who posted the above claims to be a Rockstar employee under NDA, leaking a bunch of classified information at first oppurtunity - bless him.

It seems this individual is promising far more variety in the gameplay than was found in GTAIV, more to do outside of the base storyline is basically what the fans complained about last time round. It also seems that a return to San Andreas is possible. That would be a huge area to explore.

Let's face it, everything in this post is just what the fans want to hear - a decent PC port being the height of that - and unless Rockstar have REALLY got their act together, this isn't going to happen.

Still, I think we're all secretly hoping this is true. Stay tuned, November 2nd, for the first look at GTA V.

Vice City and San Andreas are the 2 best games, it doesn't really matter what order you play them it's not a linear story, each game is based off a different character but it's the same world so there's a lot of connections to the people from the other games. I've started playing them again but I'm finding GTA3 to be a bit tedious.

If the leak details are true, it will be great. GTA San Andreas was my favorite game of the series and GTA IV was too realistic something which was out of sync of a GTA game.

I am very excited for a new Grand Theft Auto game, no matter where it takes place. I love the franchise, and I'm hoping it is set in San Andreas. It would be incredible to see the state updated for current-generation hardware. Plus, they could do a lot more with the game again. I'm a bit skeptical of co-op story, because to me, Grand Theft Auto has always been the sort of 'one man army' story. You have AI buddies at times but their contribution is so minor that it still feels like the protagonist against every other organization and the law.

2012 would be a good period to set the game in, though I have no idea what year GTA IV was set in. I'm assuming 2008 or so, to fit with the technology and the vehicle design, but I'm not entirely sure with that one. If it's a bit more lighthearted than its predecessor it'll win a lot of fans over again. I loved GTA IV, but it seemed divisive.

All in all, Grand Theft Auto V is a game I am definitely hyped up for.

Really hope it's in Las Vegas, seems a really cool environment to have GTA in.

If it's San Andreas it will be, because of Las Venturas. ;)

I loved San Andreas because of the 3 different cities and the massive space in between. No more Liberty city! It's just boring and depressing really. I miss the excitement from Vice City.

If they can combine the graphics of GTA4, the gameplay and stories of San Andreas/Vice City that would be an awesome game. Yes, I know it's a lot to ask ... lol

This.

I really want to see GTA V take place in San Andreas with a decent storyline. I liked how the stories of 3, VC and SA were intertwined, but I hated the poor and isolated story of GTA IV.

    • Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance by David Uzondu Recently, the UK's Home Office announced a sweeping set of proposals to make Britain the "first country in the world" where children cannot share or view nude photos on their smart devices, an initiative that authorities claim will protect children from online predators and combat pornography. In response, Signal believes that while the government must keep children "safe" and "protected," it should do so through social services and education, not by "surveillance, funding cuts, and cover-ups." The company called the plan "dystopian" and warned that it violates everyone's fundamental right to privacy, arguing that scanning on the presumption of nudity will only strengthen the market dominance and data control of giant corporations like Apple and Google. The statement continues by accusing the government of hiding its true intentions under the guise of child safety. Signal argues that the Home Office is building an invisible surveillance infrastructure that remains ripe for exploitation by future administrations and authoritarian regimes. According to the company, this aggressive approach completely ignores the actual needs of young people, such as properly funded schools and mental health services. Tech companies like Apple and Google have a three-month window to implement these mandatory device-level filters across the United Kingdom. If these tech firms refuse to comply with the mandate, the government will pass emergency legislation to force them to comply, threatening massive fines and even going after the CEOs of these companies with criminal charges. The technology will work by blocking explicit images directly on the operating system of all smartphones and tablets by default. This system monitors the device camera and third-party apps to intercept nudity before anyone can upload or send the image. Adults can still view explicit content, but only after completing a strict age verification check to unlock their devices. Several bodies like the NSPCC and Barnardo's praised the Home Office's decision, arguing that device-level intervention stops the cycle of grooming before it starts. The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) also supported the policy, claiming that tech companies can implement on-device checks "without threatening privacy or collecting any data."

    • Incredible deal gets you free NVMe 512GB SSD with AMD AM5 B850 motherboard for only $150

      Incredible deal gets you free NVMe 512GB SSD with AMD AM5 B850 motherboard for only $150 by Sayan Sen Earlier this week we covered the story of an interesting PC case wherein you can build two full-size computers inside it as in it can house and run an AMD and an Intel system simultaneously. Speaking of building PCs, these are hard times to make one for sure as prices are often very high except during flash sales or discounts. If you are in the market for a 1080p gaming PC then Nvidia's 8GB RTX 5060 Ti is currently on sale for just $330 and you get the latest James Bond game too, for free. Speaking of which, right now there is another incredible sale going on as we can get a free 512 GB NVMe SSD from TeamGroup in the form of the G50 alongside the purchase of an AMD B850 socket AM5 motherboard for only $150 (purchase link under the specs table down below). Getting an AM5 motherboard now in 2026 will be a wise investment for sure, especially since AMD confirmed its commitment to support the socket till at least 2029. The MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI is a micro-ATX motherboard that is compatible with AMD Ryzen 9000 series processors. Since it is AM5, the motherboard works with DDR5 memory and includes MSI’s Memory Boost technology, along with EXPO and XMP support. Connectivity features include built-in Wi-Fi 7 paired with a 5G LAN solution. The board offers a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot with MSI’s EZ M.2 Shield Frozr II thermal solution, that is said to help maintain SSD performance by providing ample cooling against overheating. The technical specifications of the MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI motherboard are given in the table below: Specification Value Form Factor Micro-ATX (mATX), 243.84 × 243.84 mm Chipset AMD B850 Socket AM5 Supported Processors AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000, and 7000 Series Desktop Processors Memory Slots 4 × DDR5 UDIMM Max Memory 256 GB Memory Speed DDR5 8200–5600 MT/s (OC), DDR5 5600–4800 MT/s (JEDEC) Display Outputs 1 × HDMI 2.1 (up to 4K 60Hz) 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (up to 4K 60Hz) PCIe Slots 1 × PCIe 5.0 x16 (CPU) 3 × PCIe 3.0 x1 (Chipset) Audio Codec Realtek ALC897 Audio Channels 7.1-Channel High Definition Audio M.2 Slots 3 × M.2 slots M.2_1: PCIe 5.0 x4 (CPU) M.2_2: PCIe 4.0 x4 (CPU) M.2_3: PCIe 4.0 x2 (Chipset) M.2 Device Sizes M.2_1: 2280/2260 M.2_2: 2280/2260 M.2_3: 2280 SATA Ports 4 × SATA 6Gb/s RAID Support SATA: RAID 0, 1, 10 NVMe: RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 Rear USB Ports 4 × USB 2.0 2 × USB 5Gbps Type-A 1 × USB 10Gbps Type-A 1 × USB 10Gbps Type-C Front USB Headers 4 × USB 2.0 4 × USB 5Gbps Type-A 1 × USB 10Gbps Type-C LAN Realtek 8126VB 5Gb Ethernet Wireless Networking Wi-Fi 7 (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be) Tri-band 2.4GHz / 5GHz / 6GHz MU-MIMO, MLO, 4KQAM Up to 2.9Gbps Bluetooth Bluetooth 5.4 Internal Power Connectors 1 × 24-pin ATX Power 1 × CPU Power 1 × PCIe Power (8-pin) Cooling Headers 1 × CPU Fan 1 × Combo Fan/Pump 3 × System Fan RGB Headers 3 × Addressable RGB Gen2 (JARGB_V2) 1 × RGB LED (JRGB) Additional Internal Headers 2 × Front Panel (JFP) 1 × Chassis Intrusion (JCI) 1 × Front Audio (JAUD) 1 × COM Port (JCOM) 1 × JDASH Tuning Controller 1 × TPM 2.0 Header The free TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe SSD is a PCIe Gen4 and as such it promises to deliver sequential read speeds of up to 5,000 MB/s, helping accelerate game loading, file transfers, and everyday computing tasks. The SSD features an InnoGrit controller and SLC caching technology to support consistent performance. An ultra-thin, patented graphene heatsink is included to aid in heat dissipation. The NAND flash is based on TLC which means it has plenty of endurance up its sleeve. The random performance may not be as amazing as other drives with DRAM though. Still it should be very good since it can access system memory via HMB to use it as its DRAM cache. The technical specifications of the TeamGroup 512GB G50 NVMe SSD are given in the table below: Specification Value Model / Part Number TM8FFE512G0C129 Form Factor M.2 2280 Interface PCIe Gen4x4 with NVMe Sequential Read Speed Up to 5,000 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 2,500 MB/s Endurance (TBW) 325 TBW DRAM Cache No Cache Technology SLC Cache Controller InnoGrit Controller Solution Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C Storage Temperature -40°C to 85°C Weight 7 g Dimensions 80.0 × 22.0 × 3.7 mm Vibration Resistance 80 Hz ~ 2,000 Hz / 20G Shock Resistance 1,500G / 0.5 ms MTBF 3,000,000 hours Get it at the link below: MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI AM5 AMD motherboard + Team Group T-FORCE G50 TM8FFE512G0C129 512GB SSD (free gift): $149.99 (Sold and Shipped by Newegg US) This Newegg deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
