Take Two/Rockstar Announce GTA Sales, Plans 24
Thanks to GameGossip for their coverage of a Take Two financial conference presentation in which the company revealed details on its software sales and plans. The company's Rockstar Games subsidiary has now, astoundingly, sold "over 25 million units" of the Grand Theft Auto franchise, and "over 20 million" of those were from GTA3 and Vice City alone. Looking forward, the company's financial officers mentioned the November 19th release of GTA developer Rockstar North's gory Manhunt as a highlight, and also noted that "mid-2004 would see the release of The Warriors from Rockstar", as based on Walter Hill's cult gang movie. Finally, the next iteration of Grand Theft Auto, name as yet unknown, "will ship during late 2004."

I'm betting that Rockstar is going to forget about numbers all together and just start giving them subtitles, so the whole "Is it GTA 4 or 5?" discussion will be moot anyway.

This would also present the opportunity for multiplayer where, say, you and a friend start at either end of the town and slowly build up your empire while trying to undermine / take over the other guy. You could even do it co-op, where you have 2 per side so one of you could handle running the operation while the other runs covert ops against the other side.
Anyway, I think there's lots of possiblity for something like this.. maybe include a few cities with the time you save on not having to do all the scripted mission stuff.. maybe a random city generator? It wouldn't be as nice as a hand created city but you could still get something quite reasonable.
Yeah, that'd be a game i'd play

It's not an American game dev bringing us hot Warrior vs. Mime [oldmanmurray.com] vs. Baseball Gang [oldmanmurray.com] action, since Rockstar North [rockstarnorth.com] is based out of Edinburgh.
I can't wait.
