    This game is great for any time of player. The main single player mode shows an improved version of the experience from previous titles and still provides an interesting story. The driving and shooting mechanics were greatly improved. There’s also a multiplayer mode which is great for playing with others however when on your own the game feels more repetitive and a downgrade in qualityThis game is great for any time of player.

There’s also a multiplayer mode which is great for playing with others however when on your own the game feels more repetitive and a downgrade in quality from the story mode. The game can get very competitive therefore I recommend playing through the whole single player story mode not just because it offers the main experience but it allows the game to be learned much easier… Expand

    Grand Theft Auto 5 is both good and bad. I have nearly 2000 hours on it and I think because of that I am able to write a fair review. The story mode I found to be very enjoyable. I have replayed it multiple times because I just find it to be quite fun. However, the story mode is not what most people stay for, it's multiplayer. This is the part that can make this game extremely unenjoyable.Grand Theft Auto 5 is both good and bad. I have nearly 2000 hours on it and I think because of that I am able to write a fair review. The story mode I found to be very enjoyable. I have replayed it multiple times because I just find it to be quite fun. However, the story mode is not what most people stay for, it's multiplayer. This is the part that can make this game extremely unenjoyable. Rockstar over the past 4 years ruined it. They started adding in things that did not fit the time period the game was set in like the oppresor bikes (flying motorcycles with lock-on missiles) or the deluxo (The DeLorean with lock-on misses which can also fly). There are still many things in GTA Online that don't fit the time period. Not only that, but many tryhards abuse these overpowered vehicles to wreak havoc on the servers. The balancing of these vehicles is horrible which is why many players want them removed or just have other public servers where they are not available to use. Also, Many Vehicles and properties are extremely overpriced with probably over half the vehicles being over 1 million dollars. This makes the game very grindy which is very tedious in the game. It forces you to spend many hours doing very repetitive and boring missions over and over again to afford 1 vehicle. The multiplayer can be fun, I still have some good memories of this game when I'm playing with my friends, but most of my memories of this game are me being attacked by its Gta online's toxic community. Moving on, the servers for the online are terrible, to say the least. I have lost count of how many times I have been disconnected from the server. Sometimes when I'm playing with my friends, it will be hard to do anything because often times one of us will disconnect before we have done anything. On many days I have disconnected from the online mode 4+ times. This can be infuriating because the load time to get into a server is usually 4-5 minutes IF you actually get into one. There has been a glitch where you can be waiting forever and it will not put you into a game which then forces you to restart the game. On bad days this can happen multiple times. Going onto glitches, they are rarely patched unless it is a money glitch. I have experienced bugs that have been in the game for YEARS that have still not been patched. Smaller problems I have with the game include the very janky walking/running controls, Online characters are completely silent and never talk, framerate is worse than many other open-world games, on PS4 it usually averages around 15 FPS. Amount of people you can invite to your CEO is only 4 players. Many vehicles are underpowered such as the B11-Strikeforce(A-10 Warthog). For some reason, kill/death ratio is in this game. This stat is completely useless as K/D really means nothing. Anyone that has a high K/D usually just kills defenceless new players over and over again. The combat system in this game is awful. The aim assist is way too strong, I have been shot out of my helicopter many times even when I'm flying fast because it's just that strong. I think that is most of my problems with the game. Overall, Grand Theft Auto 5 is fun in some areas, but severely flawed in many others which is why I give it what I would consider a generous score of 5/10.… Expand

    The Details are so amazing, the control in the vehicles is easy and fun and the 1st person was great to complete the story from another perspective, unfortunately, they destroy the timeline in GTA Online.

    P.S. My Review does not include GTA Online

    Overall Grand Theft Auto V is one of the best games I have ever played in my 12 years of gaming experience. The graphics and the lighting of the game is astonishing. I like the effort that Rockstar Games has put into the making of this game. The story-line of Grand Theft Auto V is not as great as I expected, especially how messy the story can get.
    GTA V Online is not really that great    Overall Grand Theft Auto V is one of the best games I have ever played in my 12 years of gaming experience.

The story-line of Grand Theft Auto V is not as great as I expected, especially how messy the story can get.
    GTA V Online is not really that great either, since players with their overpowered weapons can easily kill and target new players which ruins the fun of online, and if you set passive mode on, then GTA V Online can easily get boring since you cannot run over pedestrians. It is really hard to obtain money through missions, and I almost feel like Rockstar made it even harder to obtain cash these recent months.
    The map is not too small and not too big, with dozens of mountains, few lakes, and a huge city which makes the game feel so realistic. You can basically do whatever you want when you're bored and have nothing to do. There is also cheat codes included with GTA V, but cheat codes only work in the story version of the game. Rockstar does a lot of giveaways for players every month which include, "$1,000,000, free vehicles, and free offers."
    Like I said, GTA V is one of the best and realistic games that I have ever played, and deserves a lot of respect for my review. Thank you for reading!    … Expand

    Grand Theft Auto 5 is a game that is massive in scale, and deep as an ocean. With plenty of things to do, a great story, great driving, this is a game that is held back by its lackluster elements, like an unintuitive phone system, bad aiming settings with an unnecessarily slow dead zone, and stupidly awful helicopter controls, and much more.

В игре есть много одежды и вариантов их сочетания, хоть их мало но присутствуют покраски оружия.
    Мир. На момент 2013 года мир казался живым, было несколько случайных событий и спортивных событий. На данный момент мир гта выглядит мертвым, вот и все.

    Richtig geiles Spiel. Habe es 3 Mal durch und bestimmt 500 Stunden im Multiplayer gezockt. Es hat eine Beziehung von mir zerstört. Meine anderen Beziehungen haben es lange nicht gewusst, doch ich habe es geschafft. GTA V hat mein Leben geprägt. Meine Cousins spielen es heute noch. Bin so stolz! Einlassstop!

    GTA V single player is about a 7-8/10.

    Online is pure cancer and why I'm rating it as a 2. Griefers have these insane vehicles/weapons which would make sense in a GTA game set in 3015, as GTA V is closer to 2015, they are BEYOND RIDICULOUS. Heists are even more cancer, relying on randoms to not suck horrendously, pure cancer. The sad thing is, that because of the cancer this    GTA V single player is about a 7-8/10.

    The sad thing is, that because of the cancer this entire game now is, it makes so much money through Shark cards, and little kids buying them (it's an 18+ game, however I doubt you will ever find a full lobby where you can't hear an annoying 7 year old screaming down it's mic) Dan Hauser and Benzies left. GTA V single player, was the last enjoyable single player game we will probably see from this franchise. And GTA V online will survive a few more years before GTA 6 without Hauser and Benzies is even a thing.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 7.5/10 Before you try to find my address in an attempt to kill me, I just have to say that I will have free tacos waiting for you outside. I respect how this game has had such a ‘profound impact’ on the video game industry, it is the best selling piece of entertainment! The Good: The graphics for the weapons, cutscenes and oceans are absolutely incredible and breathtaking.
    Trevor is an all-around flawless character, he was written perfectly with the exact type of dark humour that I love.
    Lamar Davis is a great side character, we all know his hilarious “yee yee ass haircut” scene, but he is also easily more likeable than the other two main protaganists (excluding Trevor).
    Trevor’s rampage missions are hilariously fun and there should have been more in my opinion.
    The torture scene in GTA V is the only part in the game where it gives you freedom to torture this man in any way you want, it may be disturbing, but it is ‘TREEeVVOOORR’ fun.

    The Bad: How the game absolutely limits your creativity and treats you like a goddamn five year old, the previous Grand Theft Auto entries allowed you to be as creative as you wanted to be with the missions, this game insults its’ players intelligence and makes most of our decisions for us.
    Michael De Santa (Townley) is a typical American dad (asides from the bank heists and murder) and his character failed to interest me at any time. The game makes us try to like him, but how mean and downright horrible he is to Trevor just makes my dislike for him grow even more. (Not insulting Ned Luke’s great performance.)
    Franklin is portrayed as your typical African/American guy, once again failing to interest me as the player, considering that he is the ‘main protaganist’ you could see how this pisses me off.
    The ‘open world’ doesn’t feel ‘open’, it feels empty, the stranger missions are great, but they are way too easy and end way too quickly, some of them feel forced in, just to make you (the player) want to needlessly play the game constantly. The collectibles are spread EVERYWHERE across the map, they are so far away from each other and it just feels superfluous and have no real purpose to be inside the game, besides for 100% completion and ‘achievements’.
    Worst of all, the story is just plain uninteresting, it’s heist after heist after heist, giving you no real reason to stay engaged with the game. - Also, online is hella ga…    … Expand

    If you are on PC you get FiveM a 3rd party multiplayer app (You must have paid for GTA V for this to work) and then you get free roam servers and more which is way more fun the the official online. But its PC only of course.    … Expand
