While not a new, Rockstar have released the Trevor ATV artwork as a downloadable wallpaper in a multitude of different resolutions for different devices. We originally saw this during the media blowout a couple of weeks ago. We must admit, this cropped version of the artwork might strike you as a little awkward when compared to the original piece as it cuts of the tip of the barrel of the gun Trevor is holding, as well as the bottom of the ATV's wheels. That said, the artwork is now in a much higher resolution that is suitable for desktop wallpapers. Check it out below. This, and the original uncropped version of this artwork can be found on our GTA V artwork page. Rockstar also tweeted this tidbit about Trevor:

Evo's being a lazy bastard somewhere not in curry country.

Vice City isn't the only thing turning 10 this year, The GTA Place is too. And it's because of that game this site even exists! After a couple of years of browsing (on my trusty 56k connection) various old school GTA fansites, of which only a handful still exist today, I realised I wanted to make my own. And so I did, 10 years ago today I got my first ever website online, inspired by how mind-blowingly awesome Vice City was (and GTA III before it), I made it about GTA. The site was awful. But I persevered after teaching myself various web technologies and gradually made the site better and better. Ten years on and we have ourselves a great website, but there is still work to be done! Anyway, I won't bore anyone with a super long post about the site's history (because that can be read here), basically just wanted to extend a huge thank you to Rockstar Games for creating some of the greatest videogames of our time, ones which inspired me to create this resource. To the staff past and present for helping us out. And to you, the fans, every single one of you who visits this place and keeps it alive. Even if you're one of those people who tells his friends "lol just go to TGTAP and download loads of mods" and so he does and then we never see you again. Ever. We're cool with that too, so thanks for spreading the word! So, thanks for the last decade everyone! No one really knows how many more years Grand Theft Auto has in it, I personally suspect quite a damn lot, and you get bet your collective arse we'll be here til the end! We're very much looking forward to GTA V now, and hope to see many new faces around the place, and many old ones too. Oh did I say there would be delicious cake? Well, the cake is a lie, the cake is real, but our resident MSPaint'ing cake amateur expert Evo has decided to be on vacation... or something... but I have his word that he will make one upon his return. If you're desperate you could try some of last year's cake but be warned, it's probably gone off now*. * TGTAP cannot be held responsible for any ill-health resulting from the consumption of year-old crappy MSPaint cake.

Rockstar have just released a special trailer for GTA: Vice City 10th Anniversary Edition, the special touch-screen optimised edition of the game coming to various iOS and Android devices next week. WELCOME BACK TO VICE CITY

Rockstar have just announced via Twitter that a special trailer for the 10th Anniversary Edition of GTA: Vice City will be released tomorrow (29th November) at 12:00 EST (17:00 GMT in the UK / 04:00 EDT the next day for unlucky Australians!). The special edition of the game is being released on various mobile devices running iOS and Android next week on the 6th December. You can read our news article from last week for more details on that. Check back here tomorrow at the time given above where we'll have the trailer up and ready for your fantastic critique.

Just a heads for everyone who loves collecting GTA memorabilia, Rockstar are holding a competition on their Facebook page where you have a chance to win one of 50 GTA V photo viewers featuring a scene from Los Santos. These are the same photo viewers that were given out as pre-order bonuses at various stores in the U.S. This competition reaches not just the U.S. but also (some) other countries, states and provinces - full eligibility details can be seen on the competition entry page, so make sure your place of residence is listed and that you're over 18 years of age.

Patrick Brown is up to his old tricks again, creating more incredible fan artwork. Now that we've had a lot of media for Grand Theft Auto V, Patrick has taken the time to draw his first piece for the game. Check it out in full below! You can see the full resolution on Patrick's DeviantArt account, along with countless other fantastic artworks.

With the onslaught of GTA V media and information coming to a stop for the time being, Rockstar can now focus their promotional efforts on the 10th Anniversary Edition of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City for iOS and Android. Today, Rockstar announced that the game will be released on the 6th December to the App Store and Google Play, for a multitude of different devices (list at the end of the post). Both versions will be priced at $4.99 (£2.99 / €4,49). Within the next couple of weeks Rockstar promise to release a new trailer as well as limited edition Vice City anniversary-themed collectibles on the Rockstar Warehouse, so stay tuned for updates on those. Below is a list of all compatible devices.

Microsoft's official Xbox Facebook page has released two new Grand Theft Auto V screenshots today. Not entirely new ones, but from a different angle than we've seen previously. The first shot has been seen before from this angle, while the second was previously seen from here.

What are you taking about 5 hours experience, Tuner? I've played GTA IV for a hell of a lot longer than just 5 hours.

I agree with Tuner, I think that looks more like a Jeep than any kind of Hummer.

You guys are idiots sometimes. That's fog. Are you completely oblivious to the fact Los Angeles is polluted as fuck and there is smog everywhere in real life? That screenshot is actually an example of the incredible draw distance, not how shit it is.

I dunno about everyone else but I'm loving the amount of action and just general fun that the latest screens and this trailer are showing off. I think that's what pretty everyone wants back in a GTA game. GTA IV didn't really deliver on that, TBOGT gave us something nice, but GTAV is looking great for it.

Following on from the trailer excitement we have some more media, this time in the form of three new screenshots! Check them out. You can see all the GTA V screenshots currently available in our gallery. And if you missed them, we uploaded 112 screenshots from trailer 2. UPDATE: IGN got another new screen as well, Trevor being a .

Also available on if you're having trouble viewing the embed above. We'll have a full summary of the trailer here in a little while. Keep checking back! UPDATE: I've uploaded 112 screenshots from the second trailer. And for those wondering, the song featured in the trailer is Stevie Wonder's "Skeletons". Discuss in the forums.

Day 2 of IGN's GTA V blowout brings us a more detailed look at the three main characters, a great interview with Rockstar North studio head and Producer of GTA, Leslie Benzies. And as promised, they also have two exclusive new screenshots to show off, here they are: See more in our GTAV Screenshots gallery. Next up, IGN's interview with Les Benzies. The interview is a good read and includes a few details on certain things in GTA V. We've picked out a few interesting quotes below, but we certainly recommend reading the whole thing. And finally, looks like we might be hearing about multiplayer some time soon: Lastly, we have IGN's Meet the Cast article which sheds a bit more light on the three main characters. We'll be updating our own characters page shortly to reflect the new details.

That was actually a translation error from one of the European articles, I've removed it from the post now. The actual line in that article was making a comparison to Red Dead Redemption's (roughly) 25 hour playthrough time, and wasn't saying GTAV's playthrough time would specifically be that long. To be honest, I don't know why people even bother to put a completion time on games like GTA. Pretty much every player will play it differently. The average player won't just do all the missions then say they're done. They'll do a bit of everything and their total playtime is gonna be well over the 25 hour mark.

By the sounds of it it'll be pretty much the whole surrounding areas of water that will be fully explorable, so yeah. Obviously there will be some invisible wall that will be reached at the edges of the map though.

Rockstar have just updated the official GTA V website and have also posted a countdown to the second trailer here, and on the Newswire. The second trailer will go live at 11AM ET (4PM GMT) on Wednesday, 14th November. We've updated our countdown on our homepage to reflect the trailer coming an hour earlier than expected.

IGN have posted their first GTA V preview up, if you've read our article earlier today then none of the information will be new to you, however you will be interested in the fact that they will be posting two exclusive new screenshots every day this week. The first of which are posted below. See all the GTA V screenshots in our gallery.

I'm pretty sure people will be playing this game way way longer than they played IV for. It's pretty clear already that this game is gonna be a lot more fun to play than IV ever was, more along the lines of what VC and SA were like. Which is awesome.

I've added the unwatermarked screenshots and extended artworks to the post now.

As mentioned the other day, today marks the beginning of online previews being published by various gaming websites around the world. We're also lucky to have some new, and some unwatermarked screenshots from the GI preview to add to our gallery. Most of the previews posted so far are from European websites, but we've learned of a few new details so far. Also note that IGN will be starting their blowout week later today so we may get even more info later on. UPDATE: IGN's Preview is now up. The Previews English The Guardian IGN Foreign Language: InsideGamer.nl (Dutch - English translation) Gamer.nl Preview and Interview with Dan Houser (Dutch) MeriStation Preview (Spanish) Gamesaktuell.de (German) Jeuxactu.com (French) Multiplayer.it (Italian - English translation) Spiegel.de (German) New Info Whole underwater world, including caves, diving equipment Side-missions like taxi, ambulance, vigilante missions will be back but may not be exactly like in previous games, but they will have "odd jobs to do" Trevor is the skilled helicopter pilot, Franklin the skilled driver, while Michael is a "smooth operator" Missions vary between "big and small events, explosive, infiltration, super spectacular, family, invasion, hostage recovery, heists and robberies. Plus classic GTA missions that have been updated an improved." The mechanics behind the covering system have been greatly improved and will be important to gameplay. Regarding the game's economy, Dan Houser said "You will be able to spend money to buy interesting and fun things like expensive toys. We are still working on the economy but it will be a strong element in the game and players will be eager to make money to spend money. Something along the lines of 'I went through all of this to make all this money and now I'm going to spend it on this crazy item'". No co-op on single player missions but there will be in multiplayer. An increased focus on multiplayer with a lot more content. There is a functioning ecosystem teeming with wildlife. The song was heard playing on the in-game radio. The name of the Salton Sea like area in the game is called Alamo Sea. There is a radial menu to select the 3 protagonists. In some missions, character switching is partially scripted - meaning it will happen automatically. In the final part of a mission journalists saw in the demo, the player was able to decide which character to use. There are multiple different endings to the storyline, these depend on choices you make throughout the game. The majority of the map will be open from beginning, with the exception of a few protected areas. A certain amount of money will be needed to gain access to some missions. New Screenshots Some of these screenshots have been seen before, but we now have unwatermarked versions! See all these and more in our GTA V screenshot gallery. Extended Artworks We now have unwatermarked and extended versions of some of the recent artworks. See all these and more in our GTA V artwork gallery.

Rockstar VP of Creative Dan Houser sat down with The New York Times for a little Q&A session recently, the article doesn't talk so much about GTA V but nonetheless is a pretty interesting read regarding how Dan works and what he and Rockstar want from their games. The whole interview is definitely worth the read, but here's a couple of interesting bits. Asked what he wants people to get out of the games Rockstar makes: Asked about how certain TV shows have tried to capture the feel of a city, Dan revealed that he doesn't even watch TV, preferring to avoid it for "professional reasons". And one final tidbit on what's left to do with Grand Theft Auto V now... Head on over to NYTimes to read the full interview. Also remember that on Monday we should have a few more online previews of GTA V which might give us a little more info, while the GI exclusive was very thorough, they didn't necessarily cover every single detail they saw. Of course the big thing you're all currently waiting for is the release of the second trailer on the 14th November, there's a countdown to that on our homepage.

Nice job. I haven't had a proper signature for ages. I dunno what to use any more...
