PS3 News from N4G | Grand Theft Auto IV
PS3 - Grand Theft Auto IV - 'GTA IV' Cutting Room Floor: Rockstar Debated And Nixed Plans To Let Niko Listen To Music Out Of His Car MTV Multiplayer writes: "What's good enough for Solid Snake was almost good enough for Niko Bellic.

But the creators of "Grand Theft Auto" have confirmed to MTV Multiplayer that a plan to give Niko Bellic a portable music player was removed from the game late in the "GTA IV" development cycle.

Snake has his iPod. Niko, as recently as a couple of months before release, had a cell phone that could play music from game's radio stations. Edge magazine mentioned the feature in its cover story prior to the game's release. But it was cut.

Instead, Niko can only listen to music in cars and a few buildings, pretty much the "GTA" franchise norm. So why did Rockstar keep it that way? Here's what they told us¿"

Lovell: GTA IV won't save Take Two N4G
PS3 News from N4G | Grand Theft Auto IV
PS3 - Grand Theft Auto IV - Lovell: GTA IV won't save Take Two Top industry analyst Nicholas Lovell has said that despite the huge success of GTA IV, it won't save Take Two from EA's advances, with the publisher needing a "white knight" to step in to rescue it.

Lovell said the GTA?IV launch has had "no meaningful impact" on the firm's value, as the market had already factored its success into the share price.

"I don't believe that the success of GTA has saved Take Two. EA says Take Two is worth $26 a share; the stock market says it is worth up to $27.95," Lovell told MCV.

"That's not a very big difference, and it still seems likely that investors would seek the certainty of EA's cash over the uncertainty of Take Two's shares, especially now GTA has released.

Analyst: GTA IV To Hit 15 Million This Year N4G
PS3 News from N4G | Grand Theft Auto IV
PS3 - Grand Theft Auto IV - Analyst: GTA IV To Hit 15 Million This Year Earlier this year, Hudson Square Research analyst Daniel Ernst issued estimates for Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto IV, pegging 2008 sales for the title at 13 million copies. Not a bad take. Analyst analyzers populating the post's comments called that figure into question, with insight ranging from "Durrrr" and "dude is captain obvious" to "unbelievable" and "unrealistic."

Today, Ernst upped his estimate to 15 million on word from Take-Two that the publisher had already sold through 8.5 million copies of GTA IV, with 11 million shipped to retailers. Ernst noted that "We expect GTA IV sales to re-accelerate in the latter part of year in conjunction with the seasonal holiday period."
