damn the game is October 2007. The logic on it being #4 is not wrong. Rockstar said a while back that GTA 4 would be an entire new game and it would have to wait for next gen consoles so it could do everything they had planned for it. THey said GTA 3 was basicly a big step up from 2, and vice city and san andreas were all off the same type of engine just different settings, but not really totaly new games, which is why they were not considered 4 and 5
wow thats bad news for sony hope they get through it LOl it would be funny if sony got a contract with bungie to have halo 3 on the ps3
If this turns into a war of words im gonna like it even more, its just gonna attract more gta fans, if there are any more thats needs to be attracted. but i would like if sony and M$ fought over rockstar, i think that Rockstar has done a great job with there games. i think this is gonna be straightened out within a few weeks, this wouldnt be the first time moored lied. i have a 360 and i love it but ive never enjoyed playin gta on the xbox so im gonna be gettin it on the ps3 but props to Moore for lyin 😄

Vice City and San Andreas are the same way, they are expansions of GTA III.
Not really. They are fully-fledged sequels.
Calling them expansions is crazy. They were both bigger than GTAIII, added more features etc.
GTA London is the the ONLY GTA expansion.
The names of the games aren't down to whether they consider them as sequels, they're down to what sounds good, and looks good.
GTA II - It suits the futuristic setting it had. The "2" indicates it's set after the first one. It works well to call it GTA2.
GTA III - New console, so far the series' standalone games have been named with numbers, plus it doesn't have an exotic setting to make people aware of, so therefore there would be no need to change it.
GTA - Vice City. Rockstar simply decided calling it "GTA4" would be boring and not give an indication of what the game was about.
GTA - San Andreas - follows the Vice City philosophy.
I expect the next GTA to have a subtitle, rather than a number.
