Rockstar boss Sam Houser has revealed that the company is very tempted by the prospect of a Grandಞ Theft Auto MMO, in an interview with US mag EG🦩M (via Massively.com).

Speaking to the mag, Houser said that a GTA MMO is "very, very doable" and is a "very, very compelling proposition" (he probablꩵy noticed World of Warcraft's user count here).

Later on in the interview the Rockstar chief apparently calls a console subscri🅷ption-based MMO "the Holy Grail," perhaps, again, after a stroll through Blizzard's ca🐲r park.

Somebody probably wants to tell Rockstar about APB, the new online effort from Crackdown studio Realtime Wo𓆉rlds (and GTA creator Dave Jones). It looks bloody fantastic and certainly whiffs a bit of "GTA Online", so if Rockstar decides to enter the MꦑMO arena this'll be the one to beat.
