As promised, here's the official first trailer for Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto 5, released an hour ago. Click it to watch! It appears the logo sign has been lifted off an old silver certificate, a US currency used between 1878 and 1964 (below). The design dates back to 1899 and features 'Running Antelope', chief of the hunkpapa Sioux indian tribe in South Dakota, who was the first to sign a peace treaty at Fort Rice in 1868 and was the only American Indian ever to feature on an American currency. From the trailer we can see the game is set in California aka San Andreas (the creators have other names for their places, Hollywood is called 'Vinewood' for instance). The game will have multiple playable characters and will be out in 2012.
By the way, the song you can hear is called 'Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake' from 1968 by the British band 'The Small Faces'. Have Fun!
