Hi everyone,

I wanted to tell you personally that we have decided to move Grand Theft Auto IV back a bit. We also want to thank you for all the incredible support you've shown us over the years. We’ll have more information very soon, but in the meantime here’s a release we’re sending out to the press.

Best wishes,

Sam

Attached was a Press Release that states Take Two require additional time to develop the game, and it will be released in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. Obviously this is a massive disappointment, but we can at least take some satisfaction from knowing that the game will almost definitely be better as a result.

In a way it's good for me as now I have chance to buy other games that IV got in the way of.

Is this good or bad....


BAD:

Having to wait

GOOD:

More time to make sure they fuck nothing up.

BAD:

Putting up with more ever-so-tempting trailers to irritate us to hell.

GOOD:

Won't need to ask Santa for an Xbox 360/PS3 this Christmas - more life for me PS2 lol.

BAD:

More time for jerk-offs like Jack Thompson to get the game banned.

GOOD:

More of a dependance on San Vice, or Vice Andreas, to help keep us going until GTAIV

Maybe they are putting in more bumps and rails lol  well this sucks a little bit, just heard it from a guy on Xbox, but yeah it's true we (atleast xbox users) will have less updates every once and awile cause if they work on it longer => less bugs/glitches

I'm tired of GTA games anyway, they have always been criminally overrated IMO. Stunting is by far the best thing to come from them, and that was an accident.

I was kinda expecting this to be honest, didnt think they'd be done with two months left. So by fiscal year 2008, is that at the 2nd quarter of 2007/2008 year, making it a couple of months after Mid Oct, or fiscal year 2008/2009, making it a year later?

This is what CVG said: "GTA IV will now not be released until the publisher's fiscal 2008 Q2, ending April 2008"

I'm not surprised, it's like that for all games. I'm just hoping it'll be even better.
