And of course there was GTA London back in the late 90s.
I remember hearing some time ago that Rockstar had bought the copyright to several names, these including GTA 4, GTA 5, possibly GTA 6, and also GTA Bogota. I think Tokyo may have also been mentioned, but bear in mind this was on Channel 4 Teletext some years ago... and Tokyo, you always hear, is ridiculously congested so it might not make such good sense as a game!
Whether that's true or not, it gives a few years' worth of options, no?
Evidence comes from a frame from the released trailer showing a sign with the advertisment to vist San Andreas for a certain amount.
So nothing really.
I think Sony would be grateful for a top selling series to be released on their system at the moment given the current catalog of games available for PS3...
And London was never going to be an option I think because another similar game series has already done it (The Getaway). The Getaway 3 (or whatever it ends up being called) is in development too. I'm not sure Sony would have been too impressed with Rockstar if they'd stolen their thunder by doing London on a next-gen platform first.
