Sam Houser on EA takeover - (GTASeries.com)
The Wallstreet journal spent some time interviewing Sam Houser concerning Rockstar's importance in a possible TakeTwo takeover by Electronic Arts.

Quote:
If EA ends up with Take-Two, Mr. Houser says it's unlikely that he would go so far as to seek EA's approval for game content. Still, he calls Mr. Riccitiello "the real deal" and sees some appeal in an EA alliance, which he says would make Rockstar a "much smaller fish in much bigger pond."

"I'm not someone who has any kind of problem with that," says Mr. Houser, who says EA turned him down for a job in the late 1990s.

GTA IV radio stations - (GTASeries.com)
Gamespy had an indepth look at the radio stations featured in GTA IV.
Since the game is already in stores and most likely even in your console right now, they added some addition information such as similar stations in previous GTA's.

Eurogamer: GTA IV: PS3 vs Xbox360 - (GTASeries.com)
Eurogamer.net posted a nice article which compares GTA IV on the PS3 against the Xbox360.

Looking at the most important aspects, they still can't find any real big differences between the 2 consoles, each has it's own tiny differences.
If you're up for a 4page fest of technical terms, and most fun comparison screenshots and videos, this really is an interesting read.

SNL does GTA IV - (GTASeries.com)
Saturday Night liveThere have been many humurous takes on GTA, the latest is done on 'Saturday Night Live' yesterday as Niko and Vlad represent the Libert City residents.

Most of the gag appears to be the permanent karate-chop pose of motion-capped hands, overly expressive gesturing and out-of-place dialogue during non-cutscene encounters

'oops, my bad' - (GTASeries.com)
Just now I noticed the GTA Advance section was left out of the menu since the last big update a looong time ago.
Though I doubt anyone noticed it, my appologies and it's accessible again through the menu on the right.
As for the new website (which was the cause for this discovery), unfortunately it's still in development and has gotten a currently unknown delay.

We decided to compare GTAIII, GTA: Vice City, GTA: San Andreas, and GTAIV for this graphics comparison. All four games have a 3D world and follow the open-ended gameplay now standard in the series.

For the entire article jump over to Gamespot.
