A user over at webshots, pallamallawa, uploaded photos of what appears to be a glossy foldable map from the PS3 version of GTA IV. Even if this is a fake it's pretty darn good.

Unfortunately at the moment webshots or the user has pulled the photos. Interesting to note is that Joystiq has also pulled the images from their post on the subject. Rockstar sending out cease and desists letters? Fortunately Kotaku still has the images (high-res).

    This must be legit. The source already has took the photos of their site (that is if the source linked is the direct page to the pictures)

    I doubt its fake. It looks so legit. The controller scheme really adds to the authenticity to it. Not to mention the fact that its being pulled from several sites...

    Yeah, it would be more trouble than it is woth to painstakingly put a fake GTA IV map over a glossy fold-out, just for the kicks of having made a fake GTA IV map...

    If it were totally flat and matte, than yeah, waaaay more likely to be a fake...

    So yeah, I call this real....Especially since it has been pulled from some sites >_>

    It looks real. I don't see the point in anyone making such detailed maps if they are only going to be fake.
