GTA V: Tokyo In 2009 Not Happening

Niko BellicThe latest Grand Theft Auto rumor was one involving GTA V: Tokyo. An entirely new GTA game thought to be releasing the end of 2009. The rumor originated from the usually reliable Game Informer magazine, Issue 190.

Unfortunately, it is only a rumor. A Rockstar spokesperson told Kotaku that there is no Grand Theft Auto V planned for the year 2009. That really sucks, I hate waiting years for my favorite games to release. That is just how it is though.
