Take-Two reports profit, reenlists GTA creators for new IP

well take-two will rebound, they make great games

will it involve crime? probably

If they want more money they should release the content for GTA4 to PS3 users as well at a later date it's unknown on the content if it's a total exclusive to 360 and PC or a timed exclusive I believe it'll be timed TT know that they could get some cash from PS3 sales and PS3 sales where the companies highest.

i liked GTA4, online is fun i love cop and crooks but i liked Saints Row 2 more... too bad online is bad i say, add more online mode options one GTA4 that would be awesome

Rockstar is just unpredictable

They made a smart move not selling to EA. Take-Two is absolutely fantastic! Thanks to them we had BioShock and GTA IV in 2 years. Each of them games that will live on for a long while. Those guys keep pumping out quality products! I hope they can keep it up.

DS GTA FTW

Let it be gtaV

Whats 8 days about ? L.A. Noire sounds good hope they push the envelope with it....soccer moms be damned.

I'd like to see the Houser's take on a new IP and leave GTA to the people that have been involved in the past titles. Maybe a little oversight still... For not selling out and during a recession, Take-Two is holding it's own fairly well. Of course stockholders are skeptical. Not just for this company, but for nearly every investment they own. There's an obvious downfall in stock prices in nearly every market. The GTA IV DLC might be cool, but I really don't have much interest. The game already has enough to keep me busy for a while anyway. This deal sure helped Microsoft sell more copies for Xbox 360, but will the DLC receive a ROI worthy of the $50 million spent? - I'm sure Major Nelson will say so, but I'm not so sure that they big dogs who oversaw this will be happy. Does anybody even know anything about Chinatown Wars? All I've seen so far is a logo. I think the reason they aren't showing anything is because this is one GTA game that fans don't want to own because it will likely have a bunch of gimmicky controls and a lackluster story. Unlike the PSP GTA's which turned out quite well.

i liked Saints Row 2 better

Well without playstation, rockstar would have nothing

Gta4 was pretty cool, but how did Saints row sold?

Well so far whatever Rockstar touches turns to gold :)

Mystery PS3 Exclusive!? I didn't know such a thing existed nowadays!

Hope the new project isn't as unoriginal and broken as GTAIV was.

i wonder who many xbox points it's going to cost for this update?

GTA IV for PC came out too late for 4th quarter figures. So I doubt those numbers had any effect. For sure, the main thing I get from the PC GTA IV debacle is we probably won't see another PC GTA game.

The mystery game Sony are bringing out for 09 is eight days, They had canned it but now their going to bring it out and it looks animal .

And yet Gta IV for pc sucks...

Only for download on XBL.. Does that mean there wil be a disk version for PS3 in the future? That would be a sneaky loophole haha. I can't wait for the new GTA DLC. But my biggest concern is the file size. I'm almost out of HDD room as it is. If it's over a gig I'm in trouble.

Even though I prefer my 360 to my PS3, I'm kinda glad the Houser bros are doing a PS3 exclusive. I don't feel that we've seen all the tricks that the PS3 can perform yet, and Rockstar are notorious for pushing the limit of the hardware platform they are developing for. Plus, lest we forget - this console war is ensuring that us gamers are getting some prime gaming. Sony and Microsoft are going out of their way to obtain our custom, and the more they push each other, the more they have to do to in order to keep up! This works out very good for the consumer :-)

that mystery game might just be L.A. Noire...

so basically they opted for the $97M profit/crap PC port of GTAIV, rather than $96M/great PC port option?

@Strigidae: You guys get Halo,Gears,Lost and Damned DLC and Braid. It's fair enough.

3 letters for u GTA

rockstar does need help though - even if its not from EA. they can't relay on GTA otherwise a) will be rushed and b) will overkill a good franchaise

Mystery PS3 exclusive... noooooooooooo. Man you PS3 fanboys get the best games: MGS4, Uncharted and now this PS3, mystery, exclusive. Noooooooooooooooooooo :).

Hey cdx00, they dont call them Rockstar games for nothing, right? :)

What's up with everyone asking for a new Max Payne? It says NEW IP, meaning a completely new franchise.

Your Right He does look like Billy Corgan.

Why does Houser look like Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins fame? Maybe they're related

Good to see hard work paying off, now if only they can push more GTA like games but in different genres, with the same mind behind it. Like a FPS maybe! Then they wouldn't have to depend on 1 or two hit games a year to push them in the green.

Mystery PS3 Exclusive? Sounds good!

Great Game but i hope they don't port it for the PC like gta iv

I like the sound of the mystery game

Awesome game, deserved all the sails. Cant wait what they can come up with their GTA background.

So it's a whole new company and not just a development studio? If the Housers leave T2 in 2012, will they be able to take their old IP's with them? Or could that be why they took the steps to start a new company?

What's with asking R* for a new Max Payne? Remedy is the developer that created and makes that series.

true

take-two is known for good games , and so is rockstar , but rockstar is starting to slip when it comes to the PC version ( Bully and GTA 4 ? ) and the console versions of these games rocked man i just hope u guys can improve , cause ive been with rockstar since the first GTA was released and by the way ,auron_16 , ur display pic rocks :D

GTA4 was such an unoptimized piece of crap..

Max Payne 3. Now. I love Sam Lake. After seeing what he was capable of in Max Payne 2, he became my favorite writer.

Max Payne 3? For one, it says a new IP.. For two, Remedy (the developers of Max Payne) are currently working on Alan Wake.

YES MAXPAYNE 3 WOULD BE AWESOME
