A brand new rumor has come out from the website videogaming247 that is claiming that the PC version of Grand Theft Auto IV will be shown at an upcoming Games Convention in Leipzig, Germany.
Keep a lookout between August 20-24th, that's when this rumor will be proven false or true. *crosses fingers*
VG247 has learnt from a source close to Rockstar that the PC version of GTA IV will be shown behind closed doors at Games Convention next week.
No clue on specifically what’s to be shown, but expect the first pieces to pop up after the show.
GC’s looking quite hot this year, innit?

The rumor of GTA IV on the PC has been floating around for quite a while, but we might of just seen the first possible confirmation of the highly wanted title. A foreign blog, lingaoyi, has revealed a picture that appears to be a PC Gamer Magazine July 2008 magazine with GTA IV on the cover and this intriguing tidbit:
"GRAND THEFT AUTO IV: NOW ON CONSOLE, SOON ON PC"
Keep in mind this is a foreign blog and it wouldn't be the first time (by a long shot) that a Grand Theft Auto picture was fabricated, but if so, it's a damn good one. In the meantime, let's hope for official confirmation so we can pre-order our copy!
Stay tuned. |

With Grand Theft Auto IV released, the news has died down but don't think we're going away! Infact, with E3 came news of a brand new GTA game coming out called "Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars".
This new GTA game will be released exclusively for the Nintendo DS and will be available by the end of the year. Chinatown Wars has been confirmed to take place in actual modern-day Libery City (like IV!) and will use some of the DS technology, such as the touch screen and with the WiFi logo on the official site, some online content as well.
The new DS title is being developed by Rockstar Leeds, who made the other portable Grand Theft Auto Games, Liberty and Vice City Stories.
