Saw a bit over at Link Removed saying that there are now rumors floating around that GTA4 could be massively multiplayer, and take place in Miami. Here's a link to the snippit: Link Removed It's at the bottom of todays news update (2.1.02)
The latest EGM just hit the stands today, and there's an interesting tidbit tucked away in the Game Gossip section. Apparently there are whispers circulating that Grand Theft Auto 4 is ready to make the leap to massively online multiplayer gaming...yep, that's right. Those people you like to mug, run over, and blow up may just be other players in the next installment. (Hmm...that adds a whole new layer of controversy to the 'whack-a-hooker' issue...) Furthermore, it's rumored that the next game will take place in a real-world city. I've heard talk that Rockstar developers were spotted in Miami recently taking reference photos, which makes sense if you consider the guy in the toilet who shouts 'See ya in Miami!' when you drop him off at the airport. Will there be monthly fees? Will it require the hard drive? (I suspect a yes to both...)
We'll keep you appraised of any developments.
