Rumor #7
It might be the first online multiplayer GTA...
There's nothing in the trailer to suggest this, but at the expense of wild speculation, it would seem strange if a version of the PSP's multiplayer modes didn't make it into the fully online enabled PS3 and Xbox 360 versions. There's also no hint as to what the promised exclusive downloadable content might be - is it going to be extra cars, weapons and outfits or go deeper and offer new missions, areas and interiors. We'll state the obvious - we can't tell from the trailer.
Chances of the rumor being true:
100% true, but to what extent we don't know.
Rumor #9
Most things will be destructible
Is this really the holy grail of next-gen games? If so give us a few beers and we're going to have Liberty City leveled in a matter of hours. The problem is, what happens to the game once you've smashed it all in? Would you have to wait two years of game time before it was all rebuilt?
So, it's not even hinted at in the trailer - but we've got some insider knowledge (ex-Rockstar employee, imbibed with pints) that suggests Rockstar North are attempting a much higher level of ruinability than in GTA San Andreas, where the best you could do was drive through the odd picket fence. We're not suggesting driving into a building will level it- but we do expect objects inside buildings to be more damageable and more mission set-pieces that see things reduced to rubble. Okay, maybe we started this rumor.
Chances of the rumor being true:
We say yes - in a limited fashion.
