Take-Two have confirmed that Grand Theft Auto V will not be at E3 this year. In fact, both Rockstar and 2K will not appear at the event at all. Speaking last night as part of their fiscal report, President Karl Slatoff took a moment to address what is, certainly, one of the most anticipated games of the year, Grand Theft Auto V, though indirectly.

"I'd now like to take a moment to discuss the upcoming E3 show in Los Angeles. This year, our labels will not have a booth on the show floor. Both Rockstar Games and 2K have instead decided to focus their marketing and PR efforts on a series of events throughout the spring and summer. Our team, however, will be present at the show, and we look forward to seeing many of you there. So our philosophy on the show is that we like the show, we participate in a meaningful way in the show. It's a great place for the industry to get together, and we're highly supportive of it. This year it just didn't make sense for us in the same - at the same level."

This will be a disappintment to many I'm certain, but at least we can rest easy knowing there's no shortage of pretty pictures to tithe you over until the game, which clearly suffers from mutliple personality disorder, hits the shelves towards the end of the year. But there's still no answer on the most important question. Will it also hit our Steam lists?
