Grand Theft Auto V: Official Gameplay Video - YouTube

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?

I was actually looking to pass it up because I wasn't that interested in the return to Los Santos and it looked like some of the things I liked about GTAIV were going to be either toned down or left out. I also wasn't that sold on having the three protagonists as I felt it would mean there would be little in the way of character development. Then I saw the actual gameplay trailer and decided that I would get it, maybe not right away, but sometime around Christmas.

Gameplay trailer looks legit. I already pre-ordered it. I won't show up at midnight, but I'll have it that weekend.

I've been stoked for months. Saw the gameplay trailer a couple of days ago and it's not helping at all.

I always find myself getting bored with GTA games after playing them for a little bit. Not sure what it is about them. This looks great but I'm not sure if it'll be the same as all the others for me in that regard.

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.

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.

I have no idea why people liked IV. It was ****. The strong storyline was cool and all, but after it was over the game became pointless. There was nothing really to do after all the missions were done. The only reason to keep it going is if you shelled out for the DLC. This looks like the game that should have followed San Andreas: a giant sandbox world that, if there is any justice, will be even bigger than the original, with even more pointless crap to steal days of your life. That's the entire reason that San Andreas ruled. I could go wander around in the backwoods, or a desert, or just plain drive around on the miles and miles of highways. What could I do in Liberty City? **** all, that's what.

And they brought back planes! Awesome! And I don't remember if they took tanks out of IV, but I don't seem to remember them. And you can have clothes that don't look like an old man's. Seriously, I ****ing hated the clothing in IV. I don't even know why they bothered.

All that crap is why I traded in my copy of IV and got the new Saints Row instead. Never regretted it either. This game looks like it may help Rockstar reclaim the throne.
