There is a rumor making the rounds that Grand Theft Auto V for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC has been delayed until 2015. The rumor was first reported by VG247 The next generation version of the game was also rumored playable at Gamescom, but only behind closed doors.

The announcement of the next generation of Grand Theft Auto V was at E3 and the game was not at Sony's press conference at Gamescom. VP of Sony Worldwide Studios Michael Denny has stated not too read into that. The game was absent from their press conference, because there was nothing new to show.

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick spoke with MCVUK in an interview. He stated that any delay would be because the company is committed to making the game the best it can be.

"In the case of Grand Theft Auto V, nothing will satisfy Rockstar, nothing except the very, very best. They want to blow consumers away; whatever the expectation is, they want to exceed it. When you see GTA V for next-gen, I want you to call me and tell me whether it is or isn’t better than your expectation. I can guarantee it will be better."

Well this sucks. As long as GTA V works without having fps issues on my GTX770. Like IV has in areas. I don't really mind. IV left me ticked at the series.
