Next installment in GTA series is Grand Theft Auto: London and will take place on 1997 London. Beating the crap, stealing cars, shooting police force, destroying tanks etc and possibly much more will be now happening on great streets of London. But this time should we expect some better graphic puhleese?



Dan Choi doubts whether this rumor would come true. Or even if it does in most probability it will be a remake of an old idea. Supposedly an employee from Rockstar North has revealed the news. The authenticity is as shaky as the spelled error mail.



Lets look at the ’source’ material


...the “3 Island” system will be replaced by a new “North, East, South, West” system, and the main character will be an ex-gangster starting off in the “rough-and-tumble east end of London.” Unlocked regions are to include the North End, South End, and West End, in order. The game is supposed to be about 60% finished, with the graphics and physics engines both completed. The focus is now mainly on the game’s story component. The game is currently set to launch with the Playstation 3 in North America and Europe in Q4 2006. With about a year’s work already done, the PlayStation 3’s “fantastic graphical power” should provide some better horsepower under the hood of the sandbox series.
