OPM's GTAIV Preview Next Month

The relatively new UK publication Official PlayStation Magazine is to have a large article on Grand Theft Auto IV in next month's issue (#6), which is on sale from May 2nd.

Our friends at GTA4.net were able to get confirmation from the magazine's editor Tim Clark that the feature will have brand new exclusive GTA 4 screenshots and info. We're hoping this means truly "exclusive", and that it won't be the same info and screens we will get from GameInformer the week before (related news post).

Since it's a UK publication I should be able to pick up a copy of the magazine myself, however if there are any subscribers out there who will get the mag early, or if you're planning on buying it anyway, let me know in the comments.

Ah yes thanks that was actually a typo on my part. So are you a subscriber to the mag or will you be buying it when it's out?

I don't know, around mid-April was what I've been told. I'll drop the editor an email to see if I can get a more precise date.

Ok great, well the quicker we get the info the quicker we can get it out to more fans.

@ps3 player: I've emailed the chief editor at GameInformer, I'll let you know when he replies with the release date of their mag.
