A year on from the game's initial release on PS3 and Xbox 360, GTA V has yet to get its first piece of single player story DLC. However Shawn Fonteno (the voice actor for main character Franklin) has now confirmed that more GTA V DLC is in the wo

Well, I think I've covered most of the key information, so what do you all think? Personally, I'm intrigued by the narrative implications of having three playable protagonists but as someone who was less than impressed with GTA IV , I will remain skeptical.

Michael is a former bank robber who is retired. Now in his early 40s, Michael is currently in the witness protection program thanks to a deal with the FIB. He owns an expensive property complete with a private tennis court and pool but shares the house with a wife who seems to do nothing but fritter his money away; his plummeting bank balance is a major influence in his decision to return to a life of crime. He also has two teenage children named Tracy and Jimmy.

The DLC timeline of GTA 5 vehicles IV also suggests that GTA V could be in line for some story DLC of its own soon. GTA IV 's The Ballad of Gay Tony and Lost and Damned DLC packs were released less than a year and a half after the release of the core game - so if Rockstar is employing a similar release strategy, we'd better get our wallets re

The NPD Group released their full statistics and chart for January 2016, with the top 10-selling physical releases for January 2016 listed below (platform listings for each title are ordered by top-selling platfo

With all that ground to cover, you'd expect GTA V to feature plenty of vehicles to take advantage of - and it does. In fact, GTA V will offer more ways to travel than ever before, including BMX bikes, mountain bikes, road bikes, dirt bikes, a large selection of cars and trucks, helicopters, planes, ATVs and Jet Skis.

I completely agree with Houser's stance and wish more people in both the games industry and the animated film industry would understand this point. For years now, we have witnessed Hollywood lean on famous voice talent in order to more effectively market expensive animated films - a strategy which has been adopted by the games industry; Quantic Dream's Beyond: Two Souls , which stars Ellen Page of Juno and Inception fame, being one of the most current examples of this.

While Fonteno did not explicitly state that the DLC in question is for GTA V 's story mode, it is incredibly likely. This time last year, Rockstar explained that "For those ready to jump back into the story of Grand Theft Auto V, we have big plans for substantial additions in 2014 continuing Michael, Franklin and Trevor's action, mayhem and unexpected adventures in Southern San Andre

The NPD's results also shared an 81% drop-off in sales for previous generation of platforms with the Xbox 360, PS3, and Wii, while sales of the 3DS and PlayStation Vita have marked a 21% decline. In terms of software, physical game sales accounted for $212.7 million, seeing a 10% decrease year-over-year from $235.6 mill

But saying that this dimension is "a game-changer" is overzealous. The first-person perspective in Grand Theft Auto V constantly evokes an aura of novelty. It doesn’t fit in. Grand Theft Auto V, and the Grand Theft Auto series in general, was never built for first-person. Many of the actions benefit from a more peripheral viewpoint, as you can attackers easier and see a nearby getaway vehicle without fiddling around with the camera too much. Firefights are not the focus of GTA, nor are the driving segments. Grand Theft Auto’s appeal has always been the open-world. Moving around a city, launching off a ramp, shooting enemies, and making a clean getaway are not that valuable on their own, but the cohesion between these elements is what make GTA into what it is. The first-person perspective disjoints that synergy; it frames the firefights and vehicles as the most core elements, when they’ve only been pieces of a bigger puzzle.

Furthermore, don't expect all of the previously detailed new content to eventually come to the older platforms. According to Rockstar, the new content and additional gameplay updates were only possible because of the more powerful hardware. On the upside, any updates made to GTA Online will be for all systems. That is, aside from whatever update included support for 30-player online matc

Moving on to GTA V's setting - it's big. Actually, big is a completely insufficient word to describe Rockstar's new and improved Los Santos. Art Director, Aaron Garbut, explains that "When you include interior and exterior spaces together, Los Santos is bigger than the worlds of Red Dead Redemption , San Andreas and GTA IV combined, with room to spare." That statement boggles the mind. However impressive that fact may be, we can only hope that Rockstar isn't merely aiming for quantity, with GTA V .
