Imagine


The creator of the fake Grand Theft Auto IV screenshot is... Imagine Publishing. It's definitely them, because if you received the email from the "disgruntled Rockstar employee" with the fake GTA IV screenshot, have a look in the email header. It was sent from here. If you go to that site, you'll see the mail server the email was sent from is: mail.imagine-publishing.co.uk. Imagine Publishing has many magazines under its name. My guess is they just wanted to create a story to be put in their next issue(s). I just can't believe they're that dumb.
Fake!
I admit it was pretty well done in Photoshop, and although it has already been confirmed to be fake before, this once again debunks this stupid thing. Some real screenshots would be nice.
GTA IV is expected in stores in North America on 16 October 2007 and in Europe on 19 October 19 for both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

just because you post on a blog site doesn't make your opinion facts or any more valuable for that matter.

The reason #3 said is true. Obvioulsy this kid is saying that to not feel bad its not exclusive. It might be "crap" to him. But its still a console seller. Its the most popular franchise in video games. Its not even the same thing. You cant compare gta 3 with gta 5. Each game, it becomes bigger with more option making it more realistic.
People just cant assume, that crash sold the ps1 and died and gta sold the ps2 so now its dead for something esle. Its only happened once. jeeze.

Just because he works for the site doesn't mean that he thinks his opinion is better than anyone elses.

who here said that #3's opinion was better than anyones else. Kids these day need to pay attention and learn how to understand what people are saying.

QJ - Keep doing the good work of keeping us updated with the news, but disable the comments.

"These 10 year old are so stupid I fell sorry for them."
After years of the internet, you'd think people would double check sentences insulting the intelligence of others. Did you use the specific age of ten because going any higher would be referring to yourself? If you dislike comments, try your very hardest not to scroll down when reading the article. ;)
