GTA 4 Incorrectly named.

Has anybody noticed how GTA 4 is incorrectly named?
GTA One ---> Vice City ---> GTA 3 ----->San Andreas -------> GTA 4
But if you follow the pattern, it should really be GTA 5. I'm probably just being nitpicky, but I think it's really amusing. Did Rock Star games have a reason for doing this, or is it just them figuring nobody cared enough to bother noticing?

GTA III came out before vice city...One reason may be that GTA IV is located in Liberty City just like GTA III.

I think it is named because it represents the next step of evolution for the series.  GTA3 marked the transition to 3D, and the subsequent titles are more like extensions of that game; whereas GTA4 is the first completely new HD version.

If you think Rockstar has a problem 'properly' naming their GTA series, go bug Capcom for releasing their 15th(ish) Street Fighter game, and calling it Street Fighter 4.
