Grand Theft Auto 5

Surprisingly, I couldn't find a thread for this game on here, but for anyone who picked it up.. how do you like it so far? IMO, it's the best of the GTA series.

NickTurnon · 09-24-2013, 10:34 AM

I agree. I have played all the others at friends houses and watched them install the game, and play the first hour or two.

This GTA 5 is the best so far. Graphics, the cars, the layout, etc..

It's definitely a good way to kill time! I am not much of a gamer, but this game I gave a big thumbs up!

P.S When you drive by a prius, the character says: "Get a real car!" haha.

Haha. I like going to Los Santos Customs and modding cars. It's easy to get sidetracked in that game by just screwing around at strip clubs, firing ranges, etc and not even do the missions.

I heard about the hype. Never really been a fan of GTA. My money will be with Black Ops Ghosts.

The game is awesome, if anyone is debating, just get it. You will not regret it.

It is night and day different (better) than GTA IV. They blended the nice graphics of IV with the freedom and mini games of GTAIII San Andres.

My only gripes I have found so far are the car damage model seems less nice than IV and the cross hairs are really small, which is frustrating when shooting from a car.

This.
Shooting from a car is much harder in 5 than it was in the previous games. Also, I miss the cop missions. They were the most fun - high speed chases in a cop car during Vigilante mode.

I agree, some of the most fun missions in GTAIII series were all the side missions, taxi, cop, medic, fire truck, import export garages, phone missions.

Trevor is hilarious though. lol. All of the characters so far are pretty amusing.

I like how they have 3 very different main characters.

If you bring a car down to the end of the pier and have a sniper, the cops cant bring their cars down the pier because they have to abide by the law. So you can get 5 stars that way. Just have a machine gun to shoot down the helicopters!

I like seeing how many stars I can get, but refuse to use cheats. What sucks is, I lost 5 grand after getting Wasted and paying the hospital, so I'm going to play it safe and hold onto my cash til I've bought all of the properties, weapons, and car mods

Invest your money to generate more cash.

Not sure if anybody has bought the marina (anchor icon) with Franklin yet, but I can't figure out how to buy boats online. I went to the website on Franklin's phone, but can't figure out where to go to buy a boat.

I played it pretty much straight through after getting it last week at midnight.. it took me about 31 hrs to finish the story mode
