The customization doesn't end with character progression. The Pay & Spray businesses that used to serve as a quick way to fix up your car and get a new paintjob are now full custom shops. Rockstar says players can tweak both performance and aesthetics at a level on par with Midnight Club: Los Angeles.
There's a "crazy level of detail": Tourist buses can be boarded for a tour of celebrity homes
Never played a GTA but this one looks and sounds great and might be my first. Have they shown PS3 footage at all? All the screens and trailers I have seen look too good and must be highend PC. I remember reading GTA IV ran like crap on PS3? So I am really curious how it runs on PS3 with much bigger world. Might have to get it on PS4 if they announce it.
Demoed on the PS3 again.
i don't understand why people are getting so easily hyped again. it's almost as if nothing was learned from the marketing generated hype then utter disappointment that happened with gta4, la noire and max payne 3. it's well known they dump a lot of money on marketing but still. this is ridiculous
i'll be interested after i see some gameplay and impressions from people i can trust. until then, this game doesn't exist to me
Apparently the demo recently shown was on PS3. I do think 360 is the lead version again, as it's always been the case for Rockstar's games this generation outside of Max Payne 3. GTA IV, Midnight Club, RDR are all games that lead on 360. Only L.A. Noire was different, but that wasn't really Rockstar..
Could the table be turned then from earlier in the Gen?
From what I have read it also says that you can add to your bought properties, such as a helipad.
Post of the year stuff happening RIGHT HERE

No Giant Bomb preview?
On the flip side CVG are saying it looks leaps better than GTA IV and exactly like the trailers show lol.

Possibly. The one thing clear is that MS doesn't have co-marketing for this game. Rockstar posted the trailers on the PSblog, which they didn't do with GTA4. And Sony has mentioned it on their Facebook account. So something has changed. Kind of surprised that MS didn't work out another deal with Rockstar.
Why would they be showing the PS3 version if 360 were the lead platform? I would think R* would want to learn from their mistakes (and other developers) and lead with PS3, which according to many devs is beneficial to both versions.

9 unique attributes per character:
Special, Stamina, Shooting, Strength, Stealth, Flying, Driving, Mechanic Ability, Lung capacity
I keep hoping yes. But if I remember correctly, Red Dead was demoed on the PS3 throughout. I ended up picking that version up, checking that Digital Foundry piece, and strictly play it on a 360 now. That grass!
All of the preview footage from RDR was from the 360 version though...
If the missions are varied this might be my game of forever, max Payne 3's gunplay in an open world sounds like a dream
They said on the podcast they were trying to figure out how to do theirs. Since Jeff didn't do a video from his house again, I wouldn't be surprised if they're just recording a podcast. This is big enough for that.
I hope the physicality of the character carrying the long gun in his off hand even while using a pistol in his other will return. That was awesome.
Amazing attention to detail in Max Payne 3, I noticed that as well.
Giant Bomb's crew doesn't come off to me as someone who'd be awfully interested in GTAV.
But i'm curious to hear their take.
holy shitSummary From GTAV.net
Each character has a 'Special': Franklin is an adrenalin junkie and can slow down time while driving; Trevor has a frenzy mode, where he does double damage, takes half damage, and has a unique melee attack; Michael has his own version of bullet time

Aren't most of them pretty high on RDR? Brad and Ryan in particular? I can't imagine they're less then interested in this. This game sounds like Rockstar meeting GTAIV's greatest critics at the door.
