Capcom teaser site was for a
new Onimusha game, but the fact that it was accessible from the Sengoku

Atari was having some
trouble holding on to the Dragon Ball franchise. A couple of years ago,
the publisher clashed with FUNimation over the game license. Namco
Bandai announced last month that it had secured publishing rights to

"I would expect there would be two more pieces of downloadable content for
GTA IV (Xbox 360, PS3),
that's what has been indicated to me, although formats are unsure," he
said. "It's been indicated to me that would be the case." Apart from that, he is also of the belief that a Part 5 will be coming
to join the franchise sometime in the 2011 fiscal year, as well as a
possible new GTA title for the
PS2 as early as next year.
