All Points Bulletin to become Grand Theft Auto Online?
Filed under: Real life, All Points Bulletin, Rumors
According to the site, they were tipped off that a GTA transition was the rationale behind the rights re-purchase. The article goes on to report that Realtime is claiming ignorance of this rumor. They admit that they pulled back the APB rights from Webzen to "give them some options", and that they'd be open to working with other companies to see the game published. Rockstar hasn't, as yet, commented on the rumor.
Have you been enjoying GTA IV? Would you jump into a GTA MMO?

Yes and yes!
However, the visual style of APB just doesnt fit. It would have to be retextured from the ground up. Characters and vehicles and such could just be taken right from GTA4.
I really hope this is true. I don't care about APB and I would love a GTA MMO.

While the style might not fit with the existing GTA games, the series has never really had a continuous visual style. I think that changing APB to GTA Online would be a pretty cool idea. It'd be cool to see how this game changes if Rockstar is allowed some amount of influence.
