I've not really got on board the hype train recently for any game. Having moved from PS3 to mainly PC, most console only games pass me by. The Last Of Us was fantastic, because I had zero interest in following it and knowing so little about it going in made it even better. With GTAV, I barely know anything about it, other than watching that brief gameplay video and knowing that there are 3 protagonists, but that's it. I'm going to wait it out because I can't imagine playing this type of game twice over. So might as well hold out for the best possible way to experience it.
I've got so many games from the Steam sales that I'm working through that I can filter out the noise this type of blockbuster game generates. I'd probably crack if I was itching for something to play, but I've got plenty of great games to catch up on.
