    Graphics are really good, and the game runs well on average hardware.

    Gameplay is the same thing since GTA III. If you have played one, you have played them all, plus or minus certain insignificant things.

    The story is decent, nothing special. Gameplay is boring, you mostly drive around and sometimes shoot things and repeat terrible minigames.

    I suppose kids are enthralled because this game is "like real life", so they find it good, but really, as a game it is mediocre.

    It gets boring fast, and won't keep your interest for long. Shooting mechanics are meh, driving is meh and unrealistic. There is nothing to accomplish in this game. Online is bad and fool of cheaters.

    In the end, if you are not bored to death with the GTA formula, it is worth a playthrough, but seriously, 96 on metacritic? No way, this is a 7-8 game at most. I give it a 0 to balance the bribes.

Even those games by Ubisoft on uPlay can at least install and boot up properly on my PC with i7-4710MQ and GTX 860M.

    Steam and RockStar are now pointing fingers at each other for this travesty. I've played this game on the Xbox 360 years ago so my expectations were very high for this PC version. Games don't deserve good reviews if there are issues with merely installing the game.

    The company is obviously fully in their right to remove modding from their product. As far as MP is concerned, I'm actually with them. As far as SP is concerned, this is what I would call slapping the gamers in their faces. The zero is earned for this kind of customer support.

    Rockstar has changed their EULA after selling the game, and is now banning people for modding the game even in single player. Such scam-like behaviour is unbecoming of a company. Modding is a key component of the PC gaming community.

The business guys are literally too stupid to understand that OpenIV has nothing to do with online play. They never approached this community and the hundreds of thousands of users. They don't care that many console players bought PC versions just for the mods.

    Read about OpenIV. People spent hundreds of hours improving the games and drive millions in additional sales .. and Take Two never bothered to talk to them.

    This from the company that wants me to buy Red Dead Redemption 2? How about no .. I bet hacked copies for RedDead are pretty popular.

    Why should anyone buy this game on the PC? The controls are sh.tty, driving is a chore and annoying. Mods could have made this game passable. Now they won't.

    The main problem is with online mode.
    Sometimes, most of the time, you only see loading screens.
    You want to join heist? Ok - loading screen, something long? connection dropped?
    team is full?
    return home and take a shower... But it's the better option. It can return to exit online mode and after long time of waiting you will end up looking at Franklin, Michael or Trevor.
    Second thing is that there are so many idiods playing this game. I know that it's not R* fault. But they are forcing me sometimes to play in teams where acctualy they are not needed.
    Next thing is low level required for bank heist. Just let's try with some low levels make it on hard mode.
    I didnt see any possibility in interface to kick some one.

    And interface is ugly - it could be enough if it were gra san andreas but take a look at watch dogs!
    There is nice and clean interfaces - not clean black boxes with text.
    Interface isn't even consistent - sometimes there is enough to choose something using arrows and sometimes you need to accept it with return.

    Cars...
    This is something worth buying in this game but not all. I mean a Limo, Heli, Planes - there is acctualy almost no point of buying them.
    I bought a cheap boat and when I call Pegasus I get a random boat!
    And when you call limo, you have to go quite distance to get it... without driver..
    But wait! You have to PAY every time you call Limo, boat or whatever.

    If you could fix all those things it would be great.

Almost no physics, no weight of cars, AI is terrible but top aimers. Only few missions are interesting, and others are just kind of pointless grind with extremely annoying monologues.

    What a stupid way to sell your game by giving customers some pre-order bonus of getting 500k credits in the Singleplayer campaign and no way to get rid of that money that i never asked for. What is the damn point then anymore if you start with that kinda amount of cash??? Surely the interest in playing gta was always the slow progression. You start from nothing and slowly get new stuff so that there is some point in the game. But no, now we give you everything and it's instead just some mindless running around game for casuals. I'm done with this.

    7 years of waiting for new PC gta was all for nothing.

    Game is overwhelming at first, and very exciting. Once the game settles in you realize how there is so much to do, yet nothing to do. What I mean by this is that there is a lot of padding and many features, but very little depth. This is a drawback of sandbox games, though I feel Rockstar could have done more here.

This is a drawback of sandbox games, though I feel Rockstar could have done more here. Once you have done cycling, tennis, golf, darts etc, you forget about it. It would be nice if they gave a reward out like in San Andreas for collecting items so you had more incentive to do this.

    Single player storyline is fun, but could be better. The characters are very over the top, particularly Trevor so they get annoying after a while, and Michael's family is horrible, which is the point, but it can be a bit grating at times listening to them.

    Car handling is ok, but too light, and this makes driving less exciting. Cops spawn too quickly and are too trigger happy, making cop chases less exciting,, but still not terrible.

    Online is currently a mess as Rockstar has little to no anti-cheat system and no dedicated servers giving modders too much power. Rockstar has some of the worst customer support I have ever experienced in a video game company. They will not address it at all and cheats can even remove reports of cheaters, which is the only option of reporting cheaters. There is a cheater in almost every lobby, and they will freeze you, blow everyone up, god-mode, spawn objects on you, teleport you, lock you out of your vehicle and even crash your game. Players are downloading hacks just to protect themselves now. It has been weeks and Rockstar has yet to address this epidemic.

    If Rockstar fixes the cheating problem then I would give this a 7 or an 8. But, until then it gets a big fat zero.

    I've got about 100 hours in the ONline PC game. Single player didn't hold my interest. Bought the game on Steam with the Criminal Enterprise Pack for $22 including tax. I use a Logitech controller. Yes, I've spotted some modding but I don't see it as much of a problem. You just change sessions. There were some weird explosive traps being set by modders. they're hard to catch butI've got about 100 hours in the ONline PC game. Single player didn't hold my interest. Bought the game on Steam with the Criminal Enterprise Pack for $22 including tax. I use a Logitech controller. Yes, I've spotted some modding but I don't see it as much of a problem. You just change sessions. There were some weird explosive traps being set by modders. they're hard to catch but they quickly ban money cheaters. THEY catch them. One modder trap had me caught inside a cage.

    The main problem I had with the game was how it requires a ton of in-game cash to purchase stuff. If you're not willing to put your own cash into the game it's tough even with the million dollar start I got with my pack. That pack gave me a lot of cars I never use. I use motorcycles unless I absolutely have to use something else. The Zombie Choppers are dogs. I ride the Pegasus Vortex, which has the quickest acceleration rating possible. But the Criminal Enterprise Pack gave an MC clubhouse and a Counterfeit operation. Making it well worth it. The bunker isn't useful for a beginning player and neither is the business office.

    PEople call playing the game "The Grind." Which is grinding for cash. You're constantly grinding. Now "Grind" sounds too much like work. And it is work. I play game for relaxation. I really don't want that much work because working so hard on a game is not fun. There can be unfair glitches and bugs that take away your hard work. I had my counterfeiting operation stocked with cash. AI people came in and stole it. I had worked hard for like 6 hours to build my stock. And they just took it away. It's the kind of thing that makes people quit a game. But somebody has given me some pointers to help me reduce my frustrating work load in this game and I'll roll with it for awhile. But I may be done soon. Because of the repetition. it's the same missions over and over again. There are about 6 or 7 total "Steal Supplies" missions. And they can be excruciating. I was advised to just buy supplies and save myself the trouble. The missions where you report to icons on the map are also highly repetitive. These are the ones in which you play with others against the AI. It's the same missions over and over again.

    When you sell your illegal products you are often expected to take agonizingly slow trucks on long routes over mountains to make 5 delivery stops all over the huge map. You have a time limit. It takes seemingly forever. And all that time the game has your vehicle highlighted in red for players to attack for cash and bonuses. They blow you up, you never finish your deliveries, and you lose your stock. Again, ruining a lot of hard work. There is a flying bike (oppressor) that is so powerful it shouldn't be in the game. it can hover silently near you, you'll look up in time to see it blast you. People whip out their credit cards and win the arms race before you can even get started. There is passive mode but you can't do business in that mode.

    Anyone thinking about buying this game should know it has spectacular action and a large variety of vehicles and business opportunities. But to build anything significant is going to require about 1000 hours of game play. And that's on the low end of what some people do. I saw a player with Rank 1800. I estimate that to require around 25,000 hours of game play. People play it for 5 years. it's a game for the long haul. You won't advance quickly. You must "grind" for a long, long time.

The specs themselves are not an issue, I've personally had the game run perfectly at high settings without any issues and then after several days the game deteriorated into an unplayable lag fest both Story and Online.

    Basically, Grand Theft Auto 5 for PC is an awesome game when it works and is playable, but when it isn't playable its a horrible broken mess that is completely unplayable. I'm heavily suspecting the game has several memory leak issues and those can take a long time to lock down and fix.

    Once Rockstar can patch all these issues which prevent the game from running as intended, I'll re-write this review and most likely give it a 9 or 10/10 review provided they can fix the game and make it run properly.

    First of all, the game itself, the graphics, the story, the level of detail and the effort put by the whole team into this game does deserve definetly 11/10. It's awesome, amazing, one of the best games not only from the series that I ever played. I did consider the 60 euro too less for what this game does actually worth, I would had paid maybe even 100 euro for this, even tho it's really priceless.

    The sad part about this game, for which I intend the 0/10 review is for the GTA: Online.
    I purchased this game 60% for the online mode - but it's totally a waste of time.

    It's too difficult to actually play/enjoy the online mode.
    Why?
    Party gathering takes a lot of time.
    Matchmaking, to call it so, is very poor - You get in party/team with players of very different levels, different languages and it makes it very difficult for you to have a good social and team-play experience to actually finish the hesit after a long wait to finally start playing the speific mission.

    Not to add what I find the worst part ever:
    People spent real money to buy GTA Shark cards for money.
    ROCKSTAR, have you noticed that on every single server there is at any hour at least 1 guy which does spawns instant kills to every player on the map or spawns money? A friend of mine got 25.000.000$ at level 5.
    That is awesome for him, but what about your customers? Is this fair? He was not banned, nor the hacker nor any other hackers I ever heard of being banned.
    Seriously, you add money to be purchased for real money but you let hackers to spawn endless bags of 40K randomly.

    So therefore, not to mention that the hackers do teleport / instant kill / spawn money - they ruin even the online freeroam.

    I also want to mention another downside for the GTA: Online, which is: no animals. Seriously, why?

    So in the end, Rockstar should either improve the online like 110% - or refund all the customer that purchased Shark Cards for money.
    Also refund me and all the users that paid for the game 50% of the price - Online is unplayable and NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE.
    As an advice, you can at least create role playing games of 100/200 people and add a chance of role-playing.
    As the unofficial SA:MP mode - it would be way better.

    In the meanwhile I can only add as a big fan of all the series and customer of all series even on the mobile, that this game actually worths a torrent download - don't waste money for it.
    Rockstar does not give a "F" about its customers and scam people by making them buy online money cards while they leave hackers spamming bags of money and instant killing players. No admin/Game Master nor Anti-Cheat system.

    Thank you for your time if you read until the end, this is my opinion. For all the people that worked at this game you have all my respect, for Rockstar - hope you will hear your customers feedback and take actions then I promise it will be a 10/10.

    Game is awful.Stupid characters , bad sound , bugs , tasks very dull and the story as a whole, went to play for young children. Gameplay is monotonous.

    Hello there my name is Loucas I’m doing this review to give my opinion about the game Grand Theft Auto v also known as Gta 5 I have completed this games campaign multiple times. This game ls about 3 characters, one as a retired bank robber, a street thug and finally a crazy psychopath. I play this game almost every day because it’s such an amazing game. I like a lot of things on the gameHello there my name is Loucas I’m doing this review to give my opinion about the game Grand Theft Auto v also known as Gta 5 I have completed this games campaign multiple times. This game ls about 3 characters, one as a retired bank robber, a street thug and finally a crazy psychopath. I play this game almost every day because it’s such an amazing game. I like a lot of things on the game like the story, it gives so much detail in the background by giving the game so much history about the characters past and how we get to play as them in the past. Another thing that I like is the gameplay, I think the gameplay is at the moment one of the best games out there because of the extraordinary pixelated graphics. I also love how the game starts with the introduction by robbing a bank and getting chased by the police. I also love about how easy and interesting the game gets, and then wanting to play more and more as you process through the game. I also like how the game has different ways to play the game and different endings that you can choose on your own

    I hope you agree with my opinion on this game and Thank you for spending your time on this review

    If you hadn’t had a chance to play it yet at all though, and your computer can handle it, the PC version does definitely feel like the definitive version.

    Rockstar promised that the PC edition of GTA V would be the best way to experience this breathtaking game, and that’s exactly what it is. [06/2015, p.48]

    We could not expect a better PC port PC for Grand Theft Auto V. Rockstar North, offers right from day one a huge game in optimized, widely scalable, and high impact graphics and the video editor, although not so easy to use, is an enjoyable addition.
