Behind San Andreas and Ballad of Gay Tony for me. The presentation was superb but I was not a fan of the story as well as the whole three character thing.

It's a snooze fest once you beat the game I have no desire to play it ever again.

What is your rating for it out of 10?
8.5/10

Do you think thus far it had lived up to the hype it had before it was released?

I think it did. Online was overhyped and had way to many hiccups, but I played Online a little bit.

Were you satisfied with the gameplay and the story while playing?

When I first started playing I wondered how they would tie the 3 characters in and make it fun playing with each of them. It was executed wonderfully. I enjoyed the story and all of that

Driving mechanics were meh. I felt there should've been side heist missions to get your money up. What's the point of a crew when you can only use them once? You should've been able to get your crew's skills up and do heists.

Opinion on GTA online?

See above. The hype was monumental, then when we played it didn't work. Missions and heists online took forever to find a crew, so that was a minus. I found some replay value.

Things you would have changed about the game if you had a role in making it?


Include non-story essential heists. Incorporate offline multiplayer.

Predictions for GTA 6?


Improvements on mechanics, access to more buildings, and improvement on non-story essential activities.

theres literally nothing to do outside of the missions. worse than gta 4. overhyped trash with boring gameplay. how do you make a game about heists and not even be able to enter or rob a bank in single player without it being a mission? terrible side activities including cycling, running and triathlons :dahell: compare that to saints row 2 or ga vice city they must have spent their whole budget on graphics instead of gameplay and fun. worst gta experience so far. at least 4 had good driving. the mechanics in this one were horrible. :scust:

Agree with this. The presentation was great. But fun factor was serverly lacking. I've had more fun with plenty of other open world games.

I buy games like this for the campaign and it seems that a lot of these open world games are going away from the campaign and focusing more on multiplayer.

And that's fine but I like games with really long campaigns. My top three campaigns ever are Vice City, MW2, and Halo 2 and it is mainly becuz of the depth.

I love the game but still think that Rockstar fukked up only making Los Santos the only city in that game. They did go all out though.

Would give it a 9 out of 10.

This has to be the first GTA game that I bought off the bat and haven't finished...and it's been years.
GTA 4 despite it's floaty car physics and shoddy music selection wasn't that bad and the DLC packs more than made up for it, adding to the story while introducing new music, guns and shyt to do. Wasn't bad at all.

I can't stand how over the top and retarded Trevor is. I can barely keep it together listening to Michael go on about his family and being middle aged and Franklin is caught in the middle of this bullshyt while not being entirely interesting himself. I haven't finished it because I plan on 100 percent completing it like I do all GTA games but it's such a pain to play because this could have been such a better game with heists and other activities outside the stories that didn't feel like arbitrary mini games and filler.

Online was nice to play with friends for a minute despite not being able to get into matches in the earlies. Heard heists are finally here but they are lackluster or just shoddy with the lag and the game dropping and such.

Very over hyped and didn't meet it's flu potential.

How can a crime game include yoga and tennis, but no drug dealing mini games.

As a matter of fact there were hardly any crime orientated side missions. And why is the map so big yet you can't even buy a safe house outside of the main city.

Also the 3 character thing doesn't work IMO. The story was clearly all about Michael and his relationship with his family and Trevor, Frankin just seemed really really pointless at times.

The campaign mode was clearly neglected so they could focus on multiplayer as well.

I think the GTA franchise is going stale tbh

I think they should take some tips from MGSV TPP in how they handle emergent gameplay. Too many missions were linear in how you played it despite the city being so big. It basically all played out the same .

What is your rating for it out of 10? I would give it a 7 now because i've grown tired of it

Do you think thus far it had lived up to the hype it had before it was released? Yes, it has lived up to it's hype. I played gta story mode and online for 9 months and almost everyday because it's always something to do in the game.

Were you satisfied with the gameplay and the story while playing? The game play is ok and the story was cool. In fact i'm contemplating playing storymode again to beat my old records.

Opinion on GTA online? chaos and repetitive and people are so angry on the voice chat sometimes.

Things you would have changed about the game if you had a role in making it? I would add more heists after a few months.

Predictions for GTA 6? mansions and casino's added.

Tried it finally a couple weeks ago.
Maybe I'm just old, but too much gratuitous use of the n-word for my taste.
Played it for about 3 hours then sent it back to gamefly.

I'm saying. The story for GTA V was short compared to other GTA games. The graphics, considering the old hardware for 360 and PS3, deserves praise though.
