There are friend activities, but it's been changed a lot. Pretty sure you have to call them and initiate them.

The heist aspect sounds amazing. I thought I was burnt out by GTA after IV. Joy I'm wrong. I'm sooo there.

That picture always felt off to me. That's one obese shark lol, looks really disproportional.

That's the only change that system needed.
It's GTA story man, just go with it. The story is just fluff for the open world fun.
And I read the article about how cash will actually matter. Not convinced until I actually play the game. Money has never mattered in a GTA game and I am only going to take previews with a grain of salt.
I really hope the sharks look like the pics. Great whites are truly terrifying.

This game will be the best ending for this generation.

i cant wait for the eventual videos of players somehow getting a shark out of the water with a glitch and it's swimming around town mid air attacking people lmao
Trevor be crazy, yo.

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
I'm lukewarm on next gen consoles as it is, but I honestly feel like the number of current games I own (and haven't yet played) plus this could keep me busy for a long, long time. For me, coming at the end of the generation is actually ideal. It just sounds bigger and better than ever.
The ecosystem they are creating sounds damn glorious. I am most excited about the random events that happen; I think that is what really creates a world. Organic happenings are what I've always longed for in video games.
The paparazzi thing sounded amazing. I hope there are more things like that.

I need a cheat to spawn bears, that is all.

So basically all they need to announce is the ability to buy and sell drugs and give strippers $20s and we're good.
P.S. That Kotaku/Totillo article is horribad.

I had a feeling different characters would mean different stats and abilities, good to see that confirmed. (Actually I had Trevor down for drug induced slowmo but he's the only one who can't slow down time apparently)

Oooh, I'm intrigued. I wonder if it's someone/people they've worked with before or a new composer/group.
Why would you do that?
Member
Run and gun gameplay if you choose?
Vast, populated underwater world and forests?
ORIGINAL MUSIC OUTSIDE OF THE CAR?
I really don't know what to say...
I need a moment.
It's a video game, that's justification enough.

I agree. It was way too much talking and felt uninspired imo. And that IGN/Mortiarty article was crap also. He got the names and skills mixed up. Called Franklin the gun expert and Michael the car expert. Sure it's small in the gran scheme of things but you would think "professionals" would get this stuff right.
I thought Game Informers was the best.

Looks great. Can't wait to take a few days off and run thru this game.
Yep that's awesome,hell 2 characters have bullet time like special moves.
Well this time they didn't hire any celebrities for voice casting. I don't know how much of a difference that would of made but they mentioned it.

They didn't hire celebrities for IV either. At least they didn't want to. To make it seem more realistic. And Ned Luke (voice of Michael) I've seen before on SVU. I'm sure he's acted in other things.
That money just went into hiring a known composer to make an original score.
I really, really hope this is the case. Maybe Trevor selling hard drugs in the countryside, and Franklin brokering bigger drug deals with other gangs!

I want more side missions that can attract cops and I want them to be unlimited. Like after completing level 10 of the mission it doesn't just disappear, you can still be able to do it. That disappointed me in IV.
Which is bullshit and I'd like GTAV to bring it back with flair.

I hope that the countryside is no-mans land in the sense that there are never cops around.
Also please fix the red circle system. Was playing IV yesterday and it took me like 5 minutes to get away from the fuzz after jacking one car thanks to the magic police that are apparently everywhere.
Fucking annoying.

I closed the IGN link as soon as i read "Colin Moriarty".
Not only that, but they each have their own set of friends in addition to being able to hang out each other. Makes it more believable and apparently this adds to the plot.
This has shot to the top of my most wanted list. I figured it'd come out and be a good open-world game that doesn't really reinvent the wheel, but they're doing so much more than I expected.

It's a heist where you have to use a Mac Power Book to upload a virus into an alien mothership. Then fly in there and steal their money.

Aren't they getting Michael Hunter again? I guess he's known as the guy who does the GTA scores (or at least the one usually awesome original piece that each game opens with) but I don't think he would cost that much that they couldn't get celebrities.

I think every single numbered GTA game has been released on PC, what makes you think that this one won't?
I want this too- fully psychopathic tendencies engaged! Hopefully Trevor will fulfill that need!

i wanted it out on PC too
but when i read about r* being asked about the possibilities of GTAV on PC, r* replied with something like they wanna keep their focus on consoles
maybe they wanna focus on just consoles for now but there is't the slightest hint as far as i know about an eventual PC release
Red Dead Redemption still isn't on PC

That's R*'s MO, expect a PC version 6 to 8 months after it hits consoles.
RDR wasn't on PC, but MP3 was and it was a pretty decent port.
RDR is a technical nightmare (or mifical, depending on your perspective). GTA V will come to PC. People need to chill. This isn't a new thing by any stretch if the imagination.
