Grand Theft Auto V

[Clart]

Trevor is awesome.

 

[Euan94]

September is just too far away!

 

[couzens]

5 months away

 

[Tommo.]

Where are people pre-ordering from? I'm thinking Amazon should be fairly reliable...

Considering booking a couple of days off work to play this

 

[Snakey]

What is everyone jizzing their pants over?

 

[Rhino172]

Trevor is like a slightly more violent version of Murdoch from the a-team lol. Looking good!

Pics of your dad.

 

[Snakey]

I don't have a dad, I was found in a box under a pool table...

 

[Scutch]

LOL. In which case, just the GTA trailers. Trevor in particular.

 

[Lal B3N]

Looks great. Think I will get it on PC.

 

[Greeny.]

Looks awesome, visually though, kinda just looks like GTA4 as they are just re-using the engine :/

 

[Philip.]

f**king amazing.

Franklin ftw! (dat gangsta s**t)

 

[Silent_Scone]

Looks great. Think I will get it on PC.

Good luck with that.

 

[kpowell911]

Looks amazing, but I dont like Trevor? Hated all that Countryside s**t in San Andreas!

 

[Gally]

I hate how they make them bigger and bigger. I spent more time trying to get to places rather than enjoying the game! Vice City was perfect imo!

Still looks amazing jizzy pants material...

 

[Chapppers11]

People would only moan if it didn't grow!

You could always get a taxi

 

[Lal B3N]

Good luck with that.

Why, have I missed something? I'm sure its being released on pc platform is it not?

Rockstar's track record with getting GTA games playable on launch has been less than stellar, it has to be said. ​GTA IV was a mess for months.

I will be getting this on PS3 so that I don't have to swap discs like it's a Monkey Island game on the Amiga.

I'd like to think they'd have learnt from their mistakes (although LA Noire was fairly buggy for a time), I was meaning that I'm not even sure it's being released this time round, at all.

Its not been officially announced, however they are always slow in bringing it out on the better platform, lets just hope they actually do it.

 

[Lal B3N]

Hope they do. I still enjoy playing 4 on PC.

+1 I bought all the GTA's on steam for like £5 when they had a deal on

 

[dajones]

Brilliant deal that Was. No Matter how buggy the pc version was, there where always fixes Online

[DanFreemanPhoto]

How on earth are current gen consoles going to make the most of this!?

 

[Scutch]

​

You can buy property, get tattoos, change hair, modify vehicles etc.

You actually plan the heists yourself. Meaning that you recruit the crew, choose where to hide the getaway vehicle, how you're gonna approach the heist etc.


All very impressive.


Oh and each character has special abilities and stats.

If you want to know more in almost every single little detail, I recommend listening to this:

 

[Ray Gin]

Nice to see strip clubs will be making an appearance again.

 

[Chili Red]

Oh my God this looks f**king EPIC. There are really no games I care about anymore, but I can't wait to play this. I loved Vice City and San Andreas.

 

[Scutch]

That preview vid is awesome. Long, but awesome.

 

[C.J]

So many memories of GTA games, makes me feel warm & fuzzy.

 

[Scutch]

I watched the rev3games impressions vid and they talk about how the world is far more populated in terms in things to do and people/animals/sights to see. They talk about going scuba diving and you'll see fish and sharks and other scuba divers.

So if you end up crashing your plane or boat out in the middle of nowhere... It's not going to be a long run/swim back to land before you can do something again, you're no longer going to go "ah s**t, now I've got to hope a tractor comes by otherwise I'm hammering X for the next 10 minutes.". There are tons of side missions and things to do wherever you go kind of like red dead had out in the wilderness.


Plus if you do find yourself with nothing to do, you can just switch characters and the camera zooms out into the sky... Zips across the map and then closes in on the other character. The ai takes control of the other 2 and has them driving around or walking to places... They even hint that the ai might even get up to activities like a shoot out or police chases.

All sounds so good.

 

[Gally]

Switching between characters a bit s**t is it not? You're going to miss parts of the story?

I don't imagine you'll miss any of the story when you flick between, it seems to be just when you've got downtime

 

[Scutch]

​This is a fantastic write up preview:

That write up sounds incredible

 

[Greeny.]

I wish Rockstar would say they're making a next-gen version or a PC version, but the company line is that they have no plans to do so. Take that for what you will. I'd still like a GTA V that looks as sharp as the game does in its trailers.

Fml.

 

[Matt Cup]

Good write up. Could this be the most anticipated game of 2013???

 

[Silent_Scone]

There is no chance in hell this will be disappointing. I do wish they'd show us some gameplay footage, though. Always showing the cinematic and characters. Yes yes we know you can do this, I want to see what I'll be playing now. Although I've not watched the preview video linked above as at work, is there any in that?

Fml.

To be fair, GTA IV was one of the worst ports I've ever seen. As a PC gamer I'm happy buying it on PS3 instead.

This.

I find it hard to get really excited over pictures and trailers. The game could handle and play like complete s**t with dodgy camera angles the lot. Not only that, half the stuff put into trailers is not actually possible to do in game... There are people playing tennis, can we play tennis? There's a guy with a dog, can we own a dog? Two trains crash, can we crash trains?
