Grand Theft Auto delay hits firm

Earlier versions of Grand Theft Auto have been controversial

Shares in the firm behind popular computer game Grand Theft Auto fell 16% after it said that its latest version of the popular game would be delayed.


Take-Two Interactive Software said the late arrival of Grand Theft Auto IV meant it would record an annual loss.

The game, which had been scheduled for release in October ahead of Christmas sales, is now due in mid 2008.

The news is a blow to Microsoft and Sony who had hoped it would help lift sales of their games consoles.

"It's a disappointment that the game won't come out in the holiday period. It's one of the biggest games of all time," said Janco Partners analyst Mike Hickey.

"This is probably going to hurt the sell- through of the (Sony) Playstation3 and (Microsoft's) XBox 360."

Shareholders unhappy

Take-Two has had a turbulent couple of years, coming under fire for poor results, accounting problems and controversy over one of its games.

The New York firm has been accused of overstating profits and now faces a formal stock options probe.

It has also been criticised for the graphic sexual content of one of its Grand Theft Auto games, which was withdrawn from many shops.

Earlier this year, unhappy shareholders removed the New York firm's chief executive and most of its directors. In June it said it would cut jobs as it sought to reduce costs by $25m (£12.6m) a year by 2008.

likley to be around 2-3 years before i get it though - cannot justify the huge expenses of newly released consoles and games.

Sign up to a free 3 month trial with LoveFilm Then as it's about to expire, cancel and sign up to another free 3 month trial (I'm halfway through my second 3 month trial) - you can have 2 games at a time and you get the latest releases without too much problem ( I currently have Mass Effect and Biosphere!!!)

Get the trial codes from http://www.hotukdeals.com/main.html

EDIT Ah - doesn't help if you dont have the console.....

From hotukdeals.co.uk - it's through game.co.uk and looks like they despatch it early so that you receive it on launch day.....

Quote:
Grand Theft Auto IV PS3 or X360 preorder £34.99 (less 11% quidco, and £2 reward points = possible £3

Found by russ on 2007-12-10 22:34:25

Okay so it may be a few months away yet (rumoured to be April) but this is a good price for those who want to preorder. Note that no money is taken from your card until it is dispatched. Game give quidco cashback after VAT so it works out at £3.33 (I think! At least thats what I got on my last game at this price) plus you get £2 reward points to spend on another game if you have a Reward Card.
Thanks to jeff67 for the code - AWDC07XM. Must be used before 22nd December, so if like me you are thinking of preording this game it might be a good time to do it now.


Attached vouchers: £5 off £30.00

Grand Theft Auto IV will be released simultaneously worldwide for PS3 and Xbox 360 on 29th April 2008.


"We are so excited to be releasing Grand Theft Auto IV," said Sam Houser, founder and executive producer of Rockstar Games.


"We've pushed ourselves very hard to make something incredible and hope the game sets a new benchmark for interactive entertainment."
As we heard this morning, that pushing now includes using a mobile phone and having a drink after work.


Check out our GTA IV PS3 and Xbox 360 gamepages for more.
