First of all it's not a marketing strategy. The development version of OS-X are full of debugging messages and code that would make the user think "this is crap", just like early windows xp "whistler" versions.

Second of all, it's not leaked on the internet. It's nowhere to be found on Usenet. :whistle:

the article just says theres proof it leaked. a leak doesnt mean you or I have to be able to download it before its called a leak ;) one person is all it takes to classify something as a leak.

For all we know (hypothetical situation) the unnamed person in the article could have obtained it from his friend at apple via private means and has no intention in making it public but was able to demonstrate he had it therfore classifying it as a leak.

so fast? They have prepared the transition to intel chips for a long time, I guess that's why Tiger took that long to be developed.

They've been making Intel releases since 10.0, by the 5th release I doubt it added any development time.

It could not have been kept private. IT read "hit piracy sites" FTPs, websites, whatever. They are claiming its somewhere and all i know officaly is if it is out there wasnt by the scene.

Shawn asked me for approval and I saw no reason not to. Just remember not to discuss where or how to get this (if it is even true that it exists) as I'm sure you ALL know the rules on such things on Neowin.

proof? i haven't seen any proof of it leaking and what divertom15 said is very true, it doesn't have to be leaked onto the internet for it to be classified as a leak.

      Really? Despite the memory price rises, nothing can kill it? I thought something would.

    • Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote

      Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe After years of waiting, Rockstar will be solidifying the launch date of Grand Theft Auto VI with the launch of pre-orders next week. While the studio has confirmed a date for this occasion, it is yet to attach a price to the highly anticipated game. So let's see what our readers think it will cost at launch. The Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will kick off on June 25 for digital and physical editions. Unless some last-minute changes happen, the release date will be November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. Unfortunately, there's still no information about a PC version from the developer or the publisher Take-Two. Now the question becomes, how much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost at launch? The game is predicted by some analysts to be the biggest launch of an entertainment product ever. With the amount of hype that has been built behind it and with ballooning development costs, Take-Two may price this Grand Theft Auto entry differently from other AAA titles. The current price of a AAA game is $69.99. That norm almost rose to $79.99 before calming down. But with such a massive release, Grand Theft Auto VI may be the game that pushes the boundary again. It's also possible that Take-Two keeps the price relatively low to increase the number of players that jump in early and keep them hooked on Grand Theft Auto Online to spend on microtransactions for years to come. Keep in mind that the below poll is asking for a prediction of the standard edition price, not a deluxe or any other special edition that Take-Two will introduce for additional benefits. Also, there is the chance of the company splitting up the campaign and online portions. If you think that will happen, put your vote on what you think will be the total cost of the two. Poll Poll: How much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost? $59.99 $69.99 $79.99 $89.99 $100 or more Submit Vote If you have a very specific prediction in mind, sound off in the comments below.
