I agree with you, Dodo. I'm pretty pissed off at the poor time-management shown by rockstar games. GTA IV, Max Payne 3, and GTA V have all been significantly delayed. They showed the first trailer WAY to early, getting people excited for a game more than 2 years off. Then they put Spring 2013 on the second trailer. I don't know why they'd do that, if they knew that the game wouldn't be out until fall. A game doesn't magically get delayed 6 months from November to January. They should have been honest and said that it wouldn't be out until fall. No one would have had a problem with that. They are only mad because they were lied to.

I really think that there is an unterior motive at work here, and the delay is not just to give it futher development time. I think that Rockstar fears that with the increased gun crime in the USA especially (I'm from Canada btw), such as Sandy Hook situation, that sales will be impacted.

All I can say is, if I'm waiting another 8 months, this better be one f***ing fantastic game. It better not be all glitched like GTA IV was. I've had enough with rockstar and their poor time management and inferior way with dealing with the fans of their games. Don't lie and say the game will be out in Spring when you know it won't be ready. What a disgrace and a disappointment.
