Picked this up about a week after release, played it off and on for about a week or so, and haven't been back to it since. I'm at the point where I've done a couple missions with Trevor and I can't switch back to Franklin and Michael at the moment (which I know isn't even scratching the surface of this game).

Just can't pinpoint why these games never hold my interest. I liked pretty much everything about this when I played it and REALLY enjoyed the one heist I did, but for whatever reason I just don't want to invest my time (even just my time set aside for video games) into this thing.

Is it wrong that I expected the graphics to look a bit better than they do? I played the Last of Us at a friends house the other day and was pretty impressed with what had become possible on the PS3, and this kinda looks a little weak in comparison. I understand it's a huge open world and therefore less time can be spent refining everything but still, some elements looked undercooked, the waves and whatnot.

However, that's only a superficial complaint, the gameplay looks like it has addressed my qualms with GTA IV and for that I'm still very keen to pick this up.

This generation's last hurrah. The graphics are already starting to show their age unfortunately, but then the GTA series has never been about Crysis level graphics. The gameplay trailer looks superb.

Who else is getting it?

It looks cool. I'm a little disappointed that it's present day though.

it looks cool but i always end up doing cheat codes and tryin to fight entire swat teams with an army tank and lots of weaponry within the first 2 weeks of any gta game so as of right now i am going to pass on this purchase because i cant justify spending this much money on a game right now and i will keep everyone updated if i make the purchase

I'm throwing down for that super expensive bundle. Idk why I always do it when GTA comes out. I still have my duffel bag and lockbox from when GTA 4 came out.

This game is going to blow my mind.

I bought 4 and thought it was slightly above average at best. Not even arsed about this, I may buy it but I sort of feel like GTA lost it's magic once I got older.

I saw the opening 20 minutes on the internet though and it looked like it was based way more around the storyline which is what I like as I'm a MGS/FF fan.

Well yeah, cause it sacrificed the sandbox world with fifty million things to do for a storyline that gets old after one playthrough. From what I hear the new one seems to be the true spiritual successor to San Andreas. My pants are pre-soiled for when I finally play it.

What do you even mean by that? They all have storylines.

He means the gameplay and missions were repetitive and there was nothing fun to do when you beat the game. which he's right about

This is for you Amazon for delivering my game to the wrong address
