What they mean is, we need the extra time to port it to the PS4 and the new Xbox.
That's my guess.
Cos why would they release one of the biggest franchises in gaming, on old systems, when the new thing just came out.
This game will be coming out on both new and old consoles.
It is very presumptuous to assume that 2 new unconfirmed consoles will be out by September. Furthermore Rockstar clearly stated that, at this time, they are developing for Xbox 360 and PS3 ONLY.
Ok, let me elaborate on my opinion.
I think that both the PS4 and the new Xbox will be fully revelead before E3, in E3 they will talk about all the launch games and features, and then they''ll both be out by september.
Microsoft has been ready to go for a long time, Sony is now letting everyone know that they're ready as well, and i don't believe they will make the same mistake that Nintendo did, by announcing the console this year and only releasing it next year, cos look at what happened to Nintendo, even though the sales of the Wii had been going down, they were still selling a good number of units, but when they announced the Wii U, in a blink of an eye, the wii just fucking dissapeared.
The 360 and even the PS3, are still selling very well, so, why would sony and microsoft deliberately cut down their sales for a wholle year?
In this economy, that's economic suicide.
I bellieve they are smarter than that.
Not to mention, ppl have less and less patience these days, again look at what happened with nintendo, with the launch of the Wii U, it was, in my opinion, the most uneventful launch of console in gaming history.
Where was the excitement?
It was gone a few months after they revelead the console, when it finally launched, even the ppl ppl that went to buy it day one, were just there because it was the new thing, there was no excitement.
That's why i think that both consoles will have to be out, at max, 3 months after E3.
And Rockstar confirming this release date, just tells me that they don't want to blow the hype of their biggest property, by releasing their game in May on current consoles, and then releasing it for the new consoles in September, when the ppl buying the new consoles will want to buy new games, instead of a game that came out 4 months ago, that they probably already played on their old consoles.
That's it , that's what it think.
