I can't wait, it's going to be brilliant.

They're not releasing it for the next gen consoles so this will tide me over till after Xmas.

PC / Mac version? Seems from the website to be a "No", though perhaps not at launch?

Not really into this preordering malarkey but will definitely be getting this one.

GTA IV is still an incredible game.

A friend mine found out there was an Evo/Scooby car before we got the game so when we bought it we made it our mission to get it from the fourth island as soon as Nico gets the first flat to use. We'd aim to nick the car, park it up in the bay and run upstairs to the flat to save the game and get rid of everyone running after us. Was hours of entertainment before we finally managed it!

Was also great fun nicking those massive luggage transporters from the airport too lol.

Just seen the multiplayer analysis over at cvg on youtube (search GTA 5 o'clock). GTA Online is just mad, epic, a game changer.

Just imagine stealing a plane with your mates and then sharing out the proceeds or sitting in your penthouse (in the game) watching the tv which is streaming in real time another player with a high wanted rating being chased by the police and then you look out the window and see the live action down the street from what you have been watching on the tv.

Absolutely mental!!!............

That was with a code for £5 off.

This is a better deal if you either have the games to trade in or want to pick up cheap used copies to trade

http://www.gamestop.co.uk/GTAVTrade

£4.97 when you trade in 2 games from the list of 200 odd. Pay full price, but get refunded when you trade in.

Ok, so it's not out yet, but I can't be the only one on the edge of my seat waiting for it ?

Noticed it on the torrent sites last night and actually felt bad.. I'm not downloading it, waited too long, I want to open the case and load the real thing..

Really looking forward to it tbh.

BUT

I want to complete GTA4 before I get it.
And I'm stuck on the chasing down of Pegorino: I make it to the ramp on the dirt bike and always crash into the water.

Highly frustrating.

Any suggestions before I bin it?!

Bin it.

I never really got along with GTA 4, I always though the character control was a bit clunky.

I can't really see how its going to be poor? No Matt what you're into, surely there's something for everyone in this game? Loved GTA 4 aswell, looking forward to playing this when I get home!! Looking forward to the XBOX 1 too!!

I remember the map of GTA San Andreas.

It was absolutely massive. Even when you took a jet for a spin and jumped out of it and land on a massive mountain.



The GTA 5 map looks like a good un as well.

I just hope there is army and planes to fly in there.

If the leaked map is correct, it's a bit different to San Andreas.

Original;



Leaked;



I think Rockstar should have kept it more in keeping with what people remember.

id say its an improvement over 4, enjoyed that aswell. Characters movements feel abit better and car handling etc has gone back to the older GTA games, which I preferred over the way they were in 4

I feel like a kid at Christmas waiting for this, I'm looking more forward to Gta online though.
I just hope it doesn't disappoint.
