Rockstar has published a few official responses to frequently-heard Grand Theft Auto 5 questions on the Newswire. There's not a whole lot there that's new, but there is talk of the mystifying online component, which smells more and more like a standalone dealio. Why else, after all, would the functionality be granted a formal title of its own? "Expect to hear some first details soon," Rockstar promises. "It's called Grand Theft Auto Online and we're very excited to unveil it for you sometime this summer." In case you're catching up, GTA 5's multiplayer component supports Max Payne 3's Crew system and is supposedly "deeper and richer" than anything you've played hitherto. Swank.

The developer was prepared to share a little more about its anti-cheating measures. "Ever since Grand Theft Auto IV was released, we've continued to integrate newer and stronger methods of cheat detection and prevention for each of our games. While we have yet to reveal specifically what new anti-cheating measures we have planned for GTAV, rest assured that we're focused on creating as level a playing field and as fair, fun (and healthy as you say) an experience as possible for everyone.
"There will always be some people who want to cheat but we are going to do our best to stop it. We have spent a lot of time and effort making an incredible Online experience and proper support is part of that package."
Rockstar has also revealed that the Xbox 360 version of GTA 5 will ship on two discs - you'll need to install the first of these in order to play multiplayer without switching discs. More as we get it.
