    Great Game. The best GTA now enhanced by the Xbox One is a delight to play. Given that the Original GTAV was close to a 10/10 imo, this version just finalises any doubts in my mind.

    I am very surprised that upon playing 6+ Hours of the game already the framerate was indeed very smooth. Great job by Rockstar, their game developers obviously know how to code video games before release

    Coming from playing ACU last week to this was a real pleasure and I’m glad some game developers still know how to optimize video games.

    Thanks for a great game Rockstar.

    The updated version of this great game is a delight. The new graphics, slight new additions of vehicles and weapons, and the introduction of first-person mode all combine to make this game as great as it was on the 360. However, this is also the flaw of the game. As enjoyable as first-person mode is, the addition of a new camera-mode should not warrant the game to be sold at £50.

    My best game so far, Rockstar did what they have promised to us before to give a better excitement on their newly released awesome game. For me, because of the open-world feeling it gave me a better view on what I am playing, especially the Enhanced Graphics and Smooth Frame rate. Who wouldn't play this game? ;)

    One of the games that could live up to the hype! This deserves most of the praises it gets and should be played by everyone who's a fan of open world games!

    I never played the previous-gen version, so for me the 60€ price tag was completely justified. I have read on the net about the improvements this version has compared to prev-gen. Aside from the awesome graphics updates the most interesting thing is the first person mode. It is fantastic and it even lets you adjust FOV! On a console! I sincerely hope other game developers implement FOV adjustment to first person games. But I still consider it too steep a price for the people who had it on a 360/PS3 just to get those improvements.

    The story is enjoyable. The thing you would expect GTA to deliver. Missions are interesting and the side quests, strangers and freaks, are a load of fun. I am still to complete the game 100% (I am at about 97%), but I've had so much fun along the way! I'm sure most players will not be "satisfied" with merely completing the main story line and be done with it, but they will want to see more. See the alive world of San Andreas and what does it have to offer. The random encounters make it feel even more immersive whether you're saving a girl from being raped or preventing a robbery. The rural areas are the best to roam freely and you could find something... alien there.

    Trevor is the most intriguing character. He's crazy, he's mad and he doesn't give a damn. While playing as him nothing can be boring. I love his Rampage side missions as well as the main story missions. Michael is interesting in his own way too. He has a lot of family issues and tries to get his life back on track failing at it miserably. Franklin is, in my humble opinion, boring. He's just a young guy from the suburbs who meets a couple of crazy old men. While Franklin and Lamar, his supposedly best friend, are talking, the N word just needs to be in every sentence. Twice.

    Cars behave better than they did on GTA IV and definitely better than in a certain Ubisoft game which was to compete with GTA V. It's a pleasure driving around San Andreas. You can really tell that Rockstar have made an effort to make the vehicles unique as the interiors are crafted beautifully in first person mode and you can really tell the difference whether you're driving a family sedan or an SUV.

    I heard GTA Online had some problems in launch. I bought the game two days after launch but I completed the single player first and when I did try Online it worked like a charm. I'm not really that into it though, since it seems that killing each other mindlessly is more interesting than completing jobs. To each their own I suppose.

    For me this is GOTY of 2014 but since it is a remake, it doesn't really qualify for that prize. I loved the game and continue loving it!

    When this game first came out I thought the only thing good about it was the campaign. They didn't release the heists on time and to make up for it they only gave you 1 million dollars.

They didn't release the heists on time and to make up for it they only gave you 1 million dollars. However, over the years the multiplayer has gotten only better. The heists compared to what you can do now are not worth the time to put in for the money you get. However if you're just looking for good quality fun and not too worried about the money, I suggest doing all 5 heists. If you want to look into getting some good money I would start off with the CEO missions. This will run you quite a bit of money to start up the whole process. To get mine all set up for what I wanted it was a total of 8 million dollars. Do not worry. There are cheaper buildings to buy but it will run you at least 1 million to start it up. After you get your CEO cargo missions available I would do the car missions. They give big payouts when you deliver them to a new owner. You run a risk with the missions though. If you have a bunch of people in your server they will more than likely try to take your car out. I would stick to low populated servers for these missions. If it's the time of day where everyone and their brother is on I suggest the racing. The multiplayer racing is fantastic and a great way to have some good laughs, especially if you play it with friends. The best part is if you just want to mess around and blow stuff up you can still do that too. It's always fun to see how long you can hold yourself against the police.

    I give this game a high review based on the fact that when they finally got everything going with their online multiplayer it has a lot to offer with endless possibilities. This game will not be dead until they bring out a new GTA.

    The game itself is beautiful, not like it wasn't before, but the step into next generation is clear cut. The world goes on forever in fantastic detail, Los Santos is a living breathing city filled with whatever your heart desires.
    First person is an absolutely fantastic addition, not just a novelty, a whole new way to play the Grand Theft Auto franchise (it's came a long way from 'birds eye view')

    For those of you who would have experienced GTA: Online, you would be pleased to know that the character transfer of your old character ($ and RP included) is but a simple and easy transfer. No hassle.

    This game achieves a 10/10 from me only because I simply cannot hold it in a higher regard, it ticks all the boxes and creates new ones while it's at it.
    On the Xbox 360, this was my perfect game.
    On the Xbox One, it's my perfect game, and then some.

    Grand Theft Auto V is by far the best game that Rockstar has released into the series. The vast open-world environment paired with the simply insane gameplay often lead to a very enjoyable experience that not very many other games can offer.
    Dynamic and unique gameplay seems to have been very important in the design of this game, and it certainly shows. Every single time I launch GTA, the experience is new and varied. This is especially helped by the inclusion of three main story characters, which can be switched to at will. Each of these characters is vastly different form one another in personality and abilities, but yet they fit into a much wider and gripping storyline. This is especially shown off in a few of the many story missions, where the three characters can be used seamlessly and as a team to complete a task. Rockstar knows its strengths, which is why literally the first mission in the game fully utilises this mechanic.
    Thankfully, the fun and crazy action of the games missions also transfers into the free-play in between (which you can easily spend hours playing). The large map of Los Santos and Blaine County are perfectly designed to allow the player to do almost anything. Want to fly around in a jet, steal one from the military base (but try not to get shot down); feel like starting a gang war, just rock up and start one. Almost anything that the player can come up with can be achieved so brilliantly in GTA V (which can also be enhanced by the use of cheats that can be inputted). Both the free play and missions of this game have been wonderfully designed, with incredible scenes of action continuously maintained throughout. The new first-person feature has also been included in this version, adding an entirely fresh perspective on the word of GTA.
    In addition to the story mode, Grand Theft Auto has a multiplayer alongside it. This can be switched to at any time, where many, many more options become available. GTA's multiplayer is free roam ramped up to 11, especially with the new larger lobbies that the Xbox One and PC versions of the game offer. After customising your character, you can do missions to earn in game currency, then continue to build your own little empire of illegal warehouses, upgraded vehicles and hangars full of planes. The opportunities are even greater than that of the story mode, but yet it is exactly where the only problem with GTA lies...
    Having owned this game since it first launched, I have personally experience the incredible growth of the Online, as Rockstar add many new (and free) DLC's. These for the most part have been incredible, each becoming more ambitious than the last and expanding the game massively. However, as more and more items are added, they begin to cost more and more of the in-game's currency. This has reached the point now where it quickly becomes a boring grind to even be able to afford the cheapest of the new additions. Of course, Rockstar offer "Shark cards" that can be purchased with real world money and translate into game currency, but this is just adding to the issue, with Rockstar adding more and more expensive items so that they can gain more profits from the game.
    Overall Grand Theft Auto V is a massive success, which has really set a standard for open world games, but soon becomes a grind if you're interested in purchasing the newest items without having to use your real world funds.

This is the first time I look at a game and I feel that we are in a new generation of gaming. Reflections at night are just incredible. I was afraid that I'd hate the driving, because as everyone says it's very arcade. While it's arcade, it is a very good arcade version of driving. It feels great even to me, and I love rally games. I prefer driving in GTA5 over GTA4. The first person view is awesome and I'm using it all the time. I'm really having a hard time finding something that could clearly be improved in this game. Also, it doesn't suffer from noticeable/annoying bugs. One of the best games ever created. Props to Rockstar Games! Expand

One of and maybe the biggest upgrade is the addition of a First Person Mode, this adds a whole new layer to the game and makes you feel like the actions of your character are done by you and not a character in a video game.
    The addition of new Vehicles,Guns and Songs also keeps you interested if you already played hours of GTA5 on PS3/360.
    Grand Theft Auto Online on the other hand has been difficult and frustrating, lots of time spent in loading screens and disconnecting from friends/Jobs. Many people have been unable to even play GTA:Online and the methods of fixing the problem is well over the head of an average gamer and need to be address by Rockstar.
    Altogether GTA 5 is just as good when it was on last gen, put aside the technical issues that hopefully are fixed soon and you have an extremely fun and enjoyable game.

    The Grand Theft Auto series has made leap and bounds in creating immersive gaming experiences. The series has recreated and refined open world games along the way. This addiction to the series is no exception as it has a huge open world and crazy antics throughout.
    This game is one of the most beautiful games to come out of 2014, especially with the updated graphics from the previous Xbox 360 and PS3 variation. It is aided by a huge but finely detailed map. From an airport to a dessert, this map has all the space and things you need to have a great time and keep the game interesting but also leave enough space and options for future amazing dlc.
    There are two clear modes in this game, the story mode which has 3 main characters and the online mode. This unique game is heavily aided by the story mode, which has 3 main characters which gives the gamer 3 different views and experiences throughout. Each character have their flaws and benefits which helps to make gameplay like nothing else. There are a whole host of action packed and unpredictable missions that will have you entertained for hours. There are also a number of heists that need setting up and executing throughout the game. Overall, the story mode is great but has not received any new dlc for a few years now.
    The second mode is the chaotic competitive multiplayer mode. This allows gamers to play together ultimately destroy one another with expansive range of explosives and guns available in the game. On the other hand there is also a passive mode which allows the player to not get killed. There is also a wide variety of vehicles including jets, boats, submarine, planes and cars, which have been added in recent DLC and many more are to come from this game. Fun and creative missions are also available to earn money, as well as heists to fund your free roam antics.
    The DLC is a bit controversial, the items being added are what everyone wants, but the price of these items in game and also in real life are extremely expensive. For example, if you want to by a hangar with all the upgrades and the most expensive plane in the game with all the upgrades also it will cost you over £100 in real money for two items, that’s crazy. This is also a great business model, but it’s getting ridiculous as it is turning into a pay to win game, which becomes boring as you’ve got to play missions over and over again to earn money, but still not get enough money to buy a single DLC item. Originally when the game came out the items were all reasonably priced so shark card were a good option that get plenty for your money. They have expanded this game greatly adding new experiences and whole new meaning to crazy but if only it was affordable
    Compared to other games this has a huge open map that many games do not offer. What stands out with this game is that nothing is impossible in this game, literally anything can happen, which why it is still one of the most played games 4 years after its original release in 2013 followed by this version later on.
    Overall, in my opinion this game is ground breaking and is going to age well and has aged well in fact but there is one significant problem with it; the new items are overpriced and take a lot to grind them out which is very repetitive and ultimately people like lose interest as they put in a lot of effort with very minimal rewards if any. This game is going to be an all-time classic and I don’t see it going anywhere anytime soon, as it is one of the greatest games I have ever played.

    Like most of you, i've played this game before on Xbox 360, and loved the story, and everything you can do in this (for its time) huge map.

The videos Rockstar released before the game came out, showed more people on the roads and sidewalks, Denser foliage, and generally cleaner graphics than the Xbox 360 could handle, but none the less, for a last generation game, especially if you compare this game to GTA IV, was still a impressive game none the less.

    now, a little over a year on, we get the full HD treatment, with full streets and roads, just like the video's, and those commercial signs alongside the road are readable far far away. Most impressive is when you take the chopper, and fly above the city. You'll notice the cars are still on the road when you are high, the detail on the ground is nothing short of amazing, and so far, i have only been talking about the graphical changes made to the game. But there's more: New camera modes, like the FPS look, are added, the game play feels more "rounded", especially when you drive the lots of different (and also a few NEW) cars, this game looks and feels more polished, making this a instant buy for me.

    The biggest surprise was how much cleaner the audio sounds, especially the music on the radio! I play trough a 5.1 THX set, and the improvement in sound is just as big as the graphical one. Cars sound have more body and power, the surround effect works great, especially when you walk around mount chiliad (i don't know if this is spelled correct), and you hear a crying wolf just behind you. Priceless!

    So for me, after playing a few remakes of other games, this may be the best HD makeover i've played. Sure, you've played this before, but if you are like me (re playing the story 3 times or more on previous generation game) and you enjoy movies and games more than just once or twice, it's worth even only if the single player mode was improved, but there's more: Multiplayer has more players at the same time on the map, and most importantly (at least for me), you can transfer all your belongings you earned on the older generation versions to this game! It does not even matter if you go from Xbox 360 to Playstation 4, or from Playstation 3 to Xbox One! All you need to have is first create/connect your old generation game to Rockstar Social Club, and then boot up the new generation version, and go for character transfer. So in short, you can trade in your old version (AFTER connecting it with Rockstar's Social Club), so you won't pay full price! I had a nice 20€ discount, so that's nice.

    Have no doubt, if you liked the previous generation game, you will going to LOVE this one. A 10 is out of order because of just two small reasons: I played this before, and if you are a early adaptor, transfer your online character takes a long time because of busy servers, but this has been solved already, so no fear, this wil go smoothly now.

    It is by far the best Grand Theft Auto game in the profitable series. That is saying something considering I thought San Andreas was amazing. The game play, graphics, open-world options, customization options, and overall interaction opportunities make it an easy 10/10. However, do not listen to me, see for yourself!

    I have never been a GTA fan but must admit that I really enjoyed playing this one. World is beautiful and alive and has practically everything in it. I could easily say from objective view that this is the best game ever made. From my own subjective view I would like to have more action and shooting. What kept me from giving it 10/10 is the Online experience. Long load times there are painful.

I know it is their first outing with FP view, but it simply plays less smooth than CoD, BF or FarCry. Especially the aiming. In CoD, BF, FC I have never problem to put the dot on the head, but in GTAV it is a major pain. I don't know why. I'd say, hire some guy from those other games, copy/paste some controller coding and hey presto, you've got your shooting mechanics like CoD/BF/FC

    So ... there is something to improve on this already 10/10 game.

    Don't be bothered by my 'negative' above. Just play and enjoy this game like I do. Both last year on 360 and now, gloriously upgraded on Xbox One:)

Steam is always one of the most played games and the first ones are free games. It has sold more than 140 million games and has been shown to be of higher quality than 2020 games that are coming to revolutionize the industry.

    It is the most infra-flying game, I simply want to believe because of its popularity and to be the game that has surpassed the exclusives of such a console and some cannot bear it and for that they hate it

    The remastering of the game brought many new features such as some aviation missions, or secondary missions, races, many more new cars, a variety of cars and pedestrians on the streets, greater drawing distance, better textures, fov, new weapons,, more animals, peyotes, and first-person highlights and better made than first person only games of 2020.

    It has three stories in one, masterfully mixed, each character is for each type of player in the saga.

    The story is much more complicated, convoluted and better explained than what people usually see. People are only left with the action and the swearing but it is much more than that. The characters are well crafted and are deeper and have more personality than other games of the time. Michael is divided in his life and what he wants from it, Franklin is a worse person than he seems and Trevor is more friendly and aware of who he is than the other two. Everything you ask yourself playing the game is told in the story, how they met, why they are like this ... The heist missions are new and they have two options with their preparatory missions and apart is the saga game with the most missions varied, fun and long. It's a shame that people don't take the story seriously because it´s the top 3 of its generation.

    The secondary characters are very good, not at the level of gta iv but the closest ones have personality to have had their own dlc.

    The city is incredible, with city and countryside as many asked after gta iv, it feels alive and is full of curiosities, you can see even the curve of the earth when flying and the bottom of the sea is explorable. Again full of details like all R * games.

    There are also those who complain that there is nothing to do behind the story, something totally false. You can hunt, buy businesses and their missions, secondary missions, random characters, aviation test, base jump, shooting range, cinema, shopping for clothes, cars, tune cars, tune weapons, triathlons, etc.

    The graphics are the top of its generation considering that it is open world and the amount of things it has such as the ocean, the big map, physics, i.a. objects on screen ... and even being open world it is graphically above linear games

    The b.s.o. It is huge and with songs of all styles, the largest and most varied in the saga and far ahead of other open world games with similar themes. The songs created for the game and its missions are also very good and typical of action movies, playing in game situations adding tension and epicity.

    The gameplay is an evolution in the saga, now shoot, take cover, shoot without looking out, drive ... everything is different from gta iv. Some may think that it is better or worse but at least it is not a copy and paste and for 2013 it defends itself very well today

    After eight years and everything that has been achieved who denies that it is the game of the generation is lying to himself. Gta v is on another level, it took ps3 and 360 to the limit and it only remains to say thank you Rockstar

Avoiding gangs and the police is always fun, i find myself playing for countless hours just driving around in the massive world. It was hard to even complete the story mode because I would always get distracted with the fun random events or the side missions. Overall, one of the best games I have ever put my time in. 10/10 if i could put 11/10 i would. Expand

    Nobody can hate this game because there is enough to do for everyone. You like side missions they have that.... You like multiplayer they have that....... You like free playing around and doing what you want they have that....... There is no way you can be negative about this game even if you try. The game has no problems at all!!!

    What a amazing masterpiece of a video game. This game is purely amazing, everything about it is great, I currently own it on the Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PC and I love each and every version of this amazing video game. The game is currently going for $30-$40 on the Xbox 360 so if you have the money I recommend you run to the store to pick up this game.

    9 years ago, In 2008, Grand Theft Auto IV blew everyone away with it's incredible gameplay, it's massive multiplayer matches, top of the line graphics for it's time, and a reason for it to be the best game in the franchise. 5 years later, GTA V took everyone by surprise, Rockstar went all out with GTA V and brought us back to the city of Los Santos that we haven't seen since San Andreas.9 years ago, In 2008, Grand Theft Auto IV blew everyone away with it's incredible gameplay, it's massive multiplayer matches, top of the line graphics for it's time, and a reason for it to be the best game in the franchise. 5 years later, GTA V took everyone by surprise, Rockstar went all out with GTA V and brought us back to the city of Los Santos that we haven't seen since San Andreas. The game is so beautifully detailed from faces of the three main characters and the pedestrians all throughout the streets, to the wide variety of nicely designed vehicles both brand new and some returning cars as well. I first bought this game when it first released on the last gen consoles, and I thought it was amazing then, but after being re-released on the current gen consoles, it looks even better than before. The story is the highlight in this game, despite the insanely fun multiplayer, where you play as not one, not two, but three main characters to play as. Each character has their own timeline and their own missions that don't involve all the others, it's a great way to see the character development individually. The three main characters are all criminals in their own ways, there's Michael, the recently un-retired professional criminal who is riddled with family issues, anger problems, and alcohol, Franklin, a member of the grove street gang, he is the best driver out of the three and is guy who want to do more than to be a regular criminal, and then there is Trevor, the psychotic, rage driven, hilariously unpredictable character who wants to make big bucks through his cocaine industry, and all these qualities make them who they are. The activities haven't changed very much since the first release, they stayed pretty much the same. The multiplayer is fun, the servers may not work half of the time, but when they work you can have the time of your life. Grand Theft Auto V is incredible feat, for a game that was released 4 years ago, it still can bring you hours of non-stop gameplay, GTA IV is slightly better but not by much, but nonetheless it is an amazing game to play whether you are here for it's visually striking graphics, it's fun multiplayer, or it's captivating story mode, Grand Theft Auto V is the result of a successful franchise that has been around for 20 years, and this is not the last we've heard of GTA V, far from it.

    I have this game on both the XB360 and the XB1, why? BECAUSE IT IS FABULOUS.

    Ok, lets start with the story mode. You can play as Franklin, Michael and Trevor. You get to learn a bit about their background, family etc. It took me about a week or two to complete JUST the story. The story line never got boring, every mission was different to the one before that and just kept you gripped

The story line never got boring, every mission was different to the one before that and just kept you gripped and intrigued. There are endless amounts of side missions, and the best of all is the free roam. You come across many weird and wonderful things whilst driving around Los Santos and Blain County. I could talk all day about how amazing it is.

    Next we'll talk about playing online. This is my favourite. Playing GTAV Online is the best thing about the whole game. You get to create your very own characters (you're aloud two characters male or female). There are hundreds of missions, races, deathmatches, last team standings, parachuting, capture missions, versus missions, the list is endless. You can even create your own races and team deathmatches, which is fun, then publish them or just mess around with them with your friends. When your level up your character you unclock so many things, for example clothing, haircuts, mods for your cars, weapons, weapon attachments etc.

    Rockstar Games do a good job of keeping people playing the game, for example every couple of months they bring out a new DLC, they're always free too.

    Overall this is and always will be for a long time, an amazing game. Almost 2 years on since it was brought out, and millions of people are still playing it every day.

    this is probably one of the best games I've played in a long time. The huge open world, mixed with amazing graphics and senseless violence makes an amazing game. The story line is moving and it can be very dramatic. The online mode is just as fun and with heists out now, there is very little you can't do. I would definitely buy this game if you don't already have it.

    My favourite game franchise is Grand Theft Auto. I liked GTA V when it came out the last generation. Now, with updated graphics, more music on the radio and the ability to play the game in First Person, makes this the best game I've played.

    The story is great. You play as three characters;

    Michael De Santa - A former bank robber, now retired with his wife and two kids. After a mistake, he is forced to go back to what he's doing best. Michael is an expert with firearms.
    Franklin Clinton - A small time gangster, who want to live The American Dream. He joins Michael to fulfill that Dream. Franklin is an expert with cars.
    Trevor Phillips - A psychopath and drug dealer, living in his trailer. He and Michael used to work together. When Trevor discover that Michael is back in business, Trevor decides to pay him a visit. Trevor is an expert with helicopters.

    All missions is different and funny to play, especially when you can switch characters, both on missions and free roam. In some missions both Michael, Franklin and Trevor must work together. An example of this is in one mission where you must rescue a man from a building. To do this, Trevor must first fly to the building with a helicopter. Then, Michael needs to rappel down the building. While rescuing the man, Franklin must, across the building, assist Michael with shooting down enemies with a sniper rifle. After you rescued him, you can either play as Michael and take down choppers OR play as Trevor and avoid enemy fire. This scenario makes this game so brilliant. One of GTA V´s strongest Points is the bank heist missions. Here you must plan a heist of different kinds. You have two ways to execute the heist. Do you want to go in the loud and messy way or do you want to go the more silent and professional way? The choice is yours. Depending on which option you chose, you get different missions to prep the heist. One thing I don't like is that is only a few of this missions (I know that is more in GTA Online, but more of that later). You can also, besides missions, participate in side activities. You can play golf, do Yoga, hunt animals, skydive and more. I finished the game after 30+ hours (with side activities included). The only thing I DISLIKE about this game is GTA Online. All weapons, accessory and clothes are expensive, which ruins the fun. Luckily this doesn't affect the score for me. This is a must buy for fans of GTA!

    I would give this a 10 but no game is perfect but this comes really close. First you have the story which can be a solid 50 hours of gameplay even more if you have fun and do all the side quests, which could bring it up to 80hours. Then you can replay it and get even more hours out of the game. at first i was disappointed with multiplayer servers because they were super unreliable, butI would give this a 10 but no game is perfect but this comes really close.

Multiplayer is awesome especially with the addition of Heists. Multiplayer will provide unlimited hours of gameplay and always provide something to do. The best part is they release updates for FREE with new cars, clothes, houses, side missions in game, and much more extra content to enhance the multiplayer for FREE!!!!! overall this game is easily the best game you can get for 60 dollars and a worthwhile buy.

    It's a decent, overrated, game that leaves you plenty options to do even if you beat the campaign. The campaign was fun but many of the missions wouldn't show up on your map or mission info thing so you basically needed to use youtube for a majority of the time. It doesn't clearly describe to you what to do if this happens.

It's basically a city in America where you can do whatever the heck you want, and getting away from the police is simple, just keep driving away from them until they lose you. You can play three characters, each character with different views, opinions, missions, etc. The story itself is fun, but then it gets sort of weird and silly (in a good way, sort of). The characters are very laughable, especially Trever, my favorite character, but some just annoying like Mike. God was he annoying, and Franklin just looks like he just doesn't care that he's here for most of the time. To wrap this up, story is sometimes sloppy and way off but the game itself has a ton of fun things to do. For example, racing, gun fights, stuff like that and yeah. Solid 8/10. Expand

    Even though it came out at the end of last gen, GTAV is still one of the very best games of this generation.

    Single player: The offline mode is as strong as ever, intertwining 3 playable character stories into one. Graphically the most polished Rockstar game by far. A longer story than many games, you can easily put 30-50 hours into the single player before it gets stale at all.

No other game was more talked about in school and within the gaming community than GTA 5. I will say this no other RPG game has as a dynamic and smooth driving system as GTA. Definitely wins Game of the Decade, probably even best game of all time.

    I’ll be the first to say that GTA V’s load times make it one of the worst gaming experiences of recent memory. I don’t plan on providing a full review, because I don’t want to spend 20 minutes of every hour waiting for crap to load. After all sayed, the game is good but if You play 4 hours , you will spend 20 minutes in loading

    Rockstar did not have to try hard – GTA V would sell on new consoles even it was the same game as before. It’s hard to underestimate both their ambition and effort to make their latest offering something more than a simple reissue. The new first person view really changes the gameplay and alone is worth your money. [01/2015, p.36]

    It’s just a great game tying to be even better. In some cases it works, in other cases it doesn’t. But, ultimately, if the idea of playing a superior version of one of the best games of all time appeals to you (and why wouldn’t it?) then this is a more than worthy excuse for a double-dip.

    The real draw to return to fold, or jump in for the first time if you missed out on GTA V over the course of the last year, lies in the updated graphical prowess current-gen systems hold. Most significantly, the draw distance in this updated version is absolutely outstanding.
