    To everybody giving thumbs down to this game because of the servers... seriously? You're giving low scores just because some server issues? So nothing else in the game matters, right? The graphics, the gameplay, the soundtrack, the voice acting, the story... nothing? Really mature, guys.

    And the game is well optimized for the PC, so yeah... go check it out now, and you won't regret it.    … Expand

    Preordered on Steam, no launch issues, I was playing right away when the game activated. What a great port, luckily the Rockstar guys learned their lesson from the catastrophic GTA IV launch. The performance is really good, the game looks insane on highest settings and 1080, and I'm really enjoying the story. Really worth the wait.

They either have a bad PC, and they're trying to max the game, then getting mad at the game for their mistakes, or they didn't get the latest drivers for GTA V, and are mad at the game for their own mistakes. The game is great, from its story to its online, it brings excellence. Heists and all the DLCs that have been released for GTA V are available right out of the box, and are as good as expected. My only gripe with the PC version of GTA V is that the mouse & keyboard controls are not the best, although this can be fixed with custom configuration in the options menu, I do emphasize that this game is more relaxed and fun with a controller.… Expand

    A fantastic game on a fantastic platform with everything from incredible resolution, to a much higher frame rate! This game was revolutionary when it was released on the console, but it's even more impressive on the PC! A must buy for ANY open-world and first person shooter enthusiast!

    This game has made it to one of my favourite games of all time (on PC).

    I just can't wait to get back playing it when I come off.

    The potential of this game is beyond what we usually get from AAA games. This is a must have.

    I consider GTA:V to be nearly perfect, While GTA Online needs some matchmaking work, however it is still the best multi-player game i have played. Its sad to see so many people give bad reviews for day one connectivity issues or not being able to download a patch day one.

As a former game-lover and now game industry-critic, i want to say that this game is the complete opposite of what the majority of game studios are doing right now. The industry is full cheaply produced, unfinished and generally boring games. Some of them may be fun sometimes, but you can clearly see developers more and more caring about things like graphics instead of good stories or many details. GTA is - even though the graphics are great - the opposite. Never have i ever seen a game script so carefully written, with so many logical cohesions, details and great humour. Witty dialogues, a huge, open but yet fairly detailed world in which you can truly feel the passion and effort that was put into it. Nothing about this game resembles the current industry which is so great. Also, it's full of elaborate features and techniques which make the experience of Grand Theft Auto even more fun. Also, probably no developer except rockstar is able to kid american culture so well, and in a way that is not only relatable, but understandable. You clearly understand what is being teased, but yet you're not pelted with puerile and obvious jokes.

    Generally one of the greatest game experiences ever, and a true longtime-runner in my library, thus a solid 10!    … Expand

    GTA V is a great game, with the the title of a great game it is often followed up by the fact that you need a stronger computer than a 300 laptop. Those who experience the can't startup GTA problem can blame them selves for not managing to fix the problem and play the game for what it really are, a REALLY great game

    In a lot of ways this is the ultimate love letter to the big 3 GTA games from back in the PS2/Xbox days. The huge variety of missions and side missions are back. You can get lost for hours just driving a cab or playing tennis. The main story is fun and I really like the way it weaves between the main characters.

    It's a perfect PC game if you have the hardware. Yes, getting to the actual game can be a pain because of the required downloads and the goofy Social Club launcher--but those are minor niggles. People giving this game a low score are losers who are trying to run it on their granddad's Pentium 200 laptop. Buy it.

It is fun to mess around in Los Santos, and there many side-missions for you to do if you get bored of the main story-line or have already finished it. Online is okay at best, players don't really cooperate for you to do many of the heists, and players just constantly kill each other in lobbies. However races and other gamemodes can be engaging to play with other players, there are levels to form as a progression system with weapons that unlock at certain level as well as car upgrades, but this causes an imbalance between newbies and veteran players who have very strong weapons and fast cars in comparison to the new players. Pick GTA V up for the single player, GTA online is just a bonus, do not expect too much of it.… Expand

    Way way better port then part 4. Adding first person to GTA is pure brilliance. Getting knocked off your bike jumping red lights never ever get's old in first person.

It's more then enough though to contextualize the action. The sheer unmachted brilliance is Los Santos though. The amount of detail on every single corner in this games simply blows every other game maker out of the water. Even a hall of famer like skyrim tends to look like a sterile alpha compared to rockstars world building. just stand at a crossing for a couple of minutes and watch this world being alive.

    As usual the soundtrack alone is a reason to buy the game. heard the online part is a lot of fun as well.

    The only good AAA game this year. Port is definitely better than GTA 4 and I get higher FPS in GTA 5 than I get on GTA 4. FPS was also a nice tough. Great voice acting, in-depth characters. A good storyline including a heck lot of stuffs to do in the open world goodness.
