So uh.. :0

Guess this is official, since Xbox.com wouldn't just tweak the logo themselves.

Thanks to ash for showing me this.

i think this is the first time that R* have used a 3D effect on the GTA Text, if I'm not mistaken.

Xbox.com uses official logos for their game banners.

Exactly, I just hope that was a temp logo.

yes,but its simply been made to fit all in one line so it works as a banner.Otherwise the banner would just have a small logo in the middle and two large gaps either side.

Its simply been made to fit their sites template.yes official logo but i dont think it means anything

Well, yeah.Exactly, I just hope that was a temp logo.Why temporary? It looks fine. It could be worse, if that's what you want. ;P

I think it looks nice, a bit more modernized. And of course this is the new one, Xbox.com wouldn't mod it to fit on their template.

lmao,why? imagine making a banner out the way the original logo is set out.It would look naff.All they done was prolly request r* to make them a one line version....i cant believe im discussing something so small.

wow r* are clever lmao

To clarify:

GRAND
THEFT
AUTO
<NAME>

but on Xbox.com it's

GRAND THEFT AUTO <NAME>

They likely have it on one line to fill the banner space as there's nothing but it on there and it looks better than having it 85% black.

That is just going to effect it until Xbox.com makes a banner using the logo AND artwork.

Edit: Personally I have no problem with it that way or the normal way.

The logo doesnt have lots of red, like the counter... I do think that logo's gonna stay, but it may be arranged like in previous games

I thought the big deal was not that it was in a line rather than stacked, but that the shading around the letters provides a 3d effect as Mjuboy mentioned.

If this indeed is the official logo, I'm not sure I like it. The different coloured IV looks out of place.

Yeah I doubt that's the final logo because the different coloured IV does indeed look out of place.

I dunno, when I saw it, it gives a perception of being sleek. So maybe the graphics will be huuuuuuge improvement.

But that's just me.

The new text doesn't impress me, though.. it just looks like a 5 minute modification of GTA logo.. I tried to make it and I made it myself (little lamer, but still succeed to make it just from Pricedown font with some Blending options). I think this is, like some people already said, a remake to fit Xbox site template..
