Reviews are up, surprising amount of non-perfect scores, compared to GTA IV.
Characters constantly spout lines that glorify male sexuality while demeaning women, and the billboards and radio stations of the world reinforce this misogyny, with ads that equate manhood with sleek sports cars while encouraging women to purchase a fragrance that will make them smell like a bitch. Yes, these are exaggerations of misogynistic undercurrents in our own society, but not satirical ones.
Yeah I'm staying off reviews (outside scores) until I've played, just to be on the safe side.

I don't even understand this GS review. How is that NOT satire? Has she never played a GTA game before? The entire thing is an exaggerated satire of our society. And it's not political correctness? Good god.
From Edge: As we stand on the brink of a new generation, GTAV sends an intimidating message to the rest of the industry. Beat that.
Fuck you IGN. Soiling a mission for me in the first paragraph. I media blackout myself to save myself from stuff like this and they go and spoil it right away for me. Moments like those are so much more special if I don't know they're coming, no matter how cool it is.
I just read that. Similar things are said in the Polygon review. Sigh.

Put me down for a 93 on Metacritic.
Time to play this baby.
Reviewers complaining about political correctness can go **** themselves.
I play games to be entertained, and GTA V seems to do that perfectly.
So an EB in Australia is handing out free "cocaine" for the midnight launch. How in the fuck did they think that was a good idea? A shit storm is coming.
Hmmm. I seem to get more popin/up when install both discs
when the embargo is over I can tell you if that true or not.

Aw man it's happening again isn't it?
Is the IGN review safe? Pretty curious and tempted to watch

Sterling score?Most excellent- just peered at the scores, read couple paragraphs from each. Sterling likes it, it's a damn good sign!
#TeamNoSpoilers united- the wait is almost over!
Midnight! We're finally here!
Sterling score?
Here we go guys. What R* said is true.
A little advice to anyone who's super-sensitive to spoilers of any kind--don't go to the Giant Bomb or Rev3 reviews. GB is fairly tame, but there was a mention of a specific situation with one of the protagonist and kind of bummed me out and didn't want to read.
I hopped over to Rev3 and it's just FILLED with gameplay and cutscenes. Kind of bummed because I was hoping Sess would talk about his thoughts, not outright show stuff with no warning.
Master Chief outfit. Wow. So good.

GT 9.8/10
awesome video review too.
Well, I mean look at the guy.So an EB in Australia is handing out free "cocaine" for the midnight launch. How in the fuck did they think that was a good idea? A shit storm is coming.
You can't pretend sexism and other forms of oppression don't matter. It's absolutely valid for reviewers to include it in their critiques.only score that matters.
