Seems odd to me that MS would keep GTA5 under wraps at E3... that alone keeps me skeptical about this little announcement. What is GamesCom that it would get the GTA announcement instead of E3, the biggest game show of the year?

I never understood why people feel this way. For me, GTA IV is the definitive GTA. Nothing against San Andreas, because I loved that game too.

Gamescon is in mid-August I believe. Back on topic, I'm a little skeptical I really don't think Microsoft would set a definitive price this early before the holiday season.

Well don't get me wrong, GTAIV was amazing, but it was too strict, like other GTA's had comical violence and unique missions/activities, GTAIV was straight on, and missions didn't vary much, but apparently Ballad of Gay Tony has some GTAness to it, but you are entitled to your opinion, which is respectable =] and to 93soccer, funny thing, people said the same about the "slim" 360, then next day it was announced xD

And you are entitled to your opinion. I just thought that people who ripped GTA IV because it didn't allow you to put nitrous in your cars or was lacking a jet pack or a tank (initially), that they completely overlooked and dismissed the technological achievement and level of detail of Liberty City, and the attention to detail in the interweaving of stories of Niko, Johnny and Luis. What they accomplished there was something really special.

Wasn't one of the MS' CEO's mention that "Xbox hardcore gamers will pick up Kinect on day one"? Maybe his quote has something to do with this? We could only hope this leaked is true.

It looked real. A lot of it looks stupid, though. Even though it looks real, I doubt it is. Someone printed something off and posted it.

You couldn't just type that real short list in the topic? How do we know this is reliable? Why would a Bungie developed game be showcased with Microsoft when Bungie's post Reach game is being published by Activision and will be multiplatform?

Anyone else notice that this is the OP's first post? I wouldn't consider it too legit at this point.

Well the 150 was a placeholder, 80 makes sense, because 150 kinect wont sell very well, but 80 seems negotiable, especially because it seems to have been dumbed down in specs

Yeah the only way Kinect will sell is getting the price under $100. $79.99 seems like it makes more sense. They can't actually expect too many people to pay $150 for a system with only like 6 games at launch.

They also need to get the game prices down. $49.99 or even better $39.99 will sell even more. Even though the games do look better than what is on the Wii, who is going to pay $10 ($60) more for basically the same games they've already played on a different system?

no they did not, that $150 was just a placeholder so stores could have a price point, kind of like the price ceiling of that product

Is GamesCom going to be streamed live or on TV at all? I really want to see the announcements. I can't make the show because I'll be across the country.
