BREAKING NEWS - Royal Visit

We are overwhelmed to announce that we have just received word from Buckingham Palace. Her majesty Queen Elizabeth II insists she plays NotGTAV before it is released to the plebs (her words).

There is a long tradition stretching back many years, protected by British law, that the reigning monarch may demand access to any closed beta they wish. We were powerless to argue.

Apparently she'll be round in a minute. We've put the kettle on.
