"According to Loose Talk in the latest Game Informer, RockStar North is already working on the next instalment in the Grand Theft Auto franchise, which should be ready for release this holiday season.

"We're not talking about new DLC or a collection of previously available DLC, we're talking about a full retail game. We expect this title to follow the suit of previous GTAs and use a subtitle such as GTA: San Andreas, etc. Tokyo might be a possible setting for the game, but details are non-existent at this time."

It wouldn't be surprising for RockStar to release the next GTA this soon – as you may recall, Vice City hit the shops only a year after Grand Theft Auto III was released for PlayStation 2.

Stay tuned for more details as they break."

this is just a rumor but i dont think its true what about you guys?.

I think it is false, I can't see them making a new city in such a short space of time, especially after IV took them 3 1/2 years to make. I hope it is false, because it would likely be rushed, and I would be bankrupt

Seriously doubt it.

GTA: Tokyo sounds nice, though!

maybe the Wii one sure.

If you look at how long it's taking them just to make the downloadable episodes, you would know there's no way this is true. They still have another one to make after this first one releases. 2010 sounds more likely since they will just re-use the game engine. I can't wait because the next GTA will spell the end for the Wii. Hi Leo!

Doubtful! Maybe an add on game on some sort, but not a whole one
