Rockstar is the developer of the popular yet controversial Grand Theft Auto and Midnight Club 2 and has a bright future in the industry in the coming years. The company is now working with Grant Theft Auto 4 and we wouldn’t be surprised if Midnight Club 3 were to make an appearance in the near future.
