In other Grand Theft Auto V news, 10 new screenshots have been released online, (credit: NeoGaf user Sn4ke_911 ) showcasing the game's protagonists as they undertake assorted gangland tasks. One unusual screenshot appears to hint at the possibility of an underwater co-op level, with Trevor piloting a deep-sea one-man submarine in pursuit of either Michael or Franklin. Could gamers be in for a modern day take on a sunken-treasure qu
The DLC timeline of GTA IV also suggests that GTA V could be in line for some story DLC of its own soon. GTA 5 Beginner guide 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
According to Rockstar Games (the publisher and developer of the Grand Theft Auto franchise), the size of Grand Theft Auto V 's map is bigger than Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas , Grand Theft Auto IV and Red Dead Redemption 's maps combined. But the picturesque Los Santos setting isn't all palm trees, mountains and the occasional flurry of snow ; GTA V is filled with a wealth of things to
A majority of the new content for players to enjoy amounts to new challenges and events, which, upon completion, yield new vehicles and weapons with which to terrorize the city. Our three protagonists each get an exclusive story mission of their own (including a murder mystery and underwater photography) which also lead to acquiring new rewards, such as a mini submarine and new camera filters. You know, just in case players wish to explore their inner photograp
As sterling as the contents of the collection may be, however (we're already anxious to see Edition 2 ), there's no confusing Rockstar's real focus for the rest of 2012 and into 2013: Grand Theft Auto V . As one retailer listed the Rockstar Collection, another, GameStop , saw fit to list its release date as March 1, 2
Are you excited to get your hands on Grand Theft Auto V ? Does the authenticity of a voice cast really matter to you? Who provided the series' best celebrity cameo to date? Have your say in the comments below, and be sure to check out our rundown of the game's pre-order incenti
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.
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
Aside from BioShock Infinite , we know Rockstar parent company Take-Two Interactive is looking for major revenue booster in 2013, and with Game Informer teasing Grand Theft Auto V as their December cover just hours ago, it might not be long before a return to Los Santos finds its way onto corporate and consumer calendars al
But, with just nine days left in 2014 it doesn't seem as though the developer is going to make its original timeline - maybe they've been too busy with the game's release on Xbox One and PS4. That's especially true when you consider that Rockstar is also working on GTA Online's Heists as well as the PC release of the game , which are both scheduled for early 2
Rather than script hokey gangland chatter amongst themselves, Lazlow claims Rockstar were more than willing to work alongside these one-time voiceover artists, some of whom would "look at the lines and say, 'I wouldn't say that,' so we say, 'OK, say what you would say?' […] There's a lot of sessions where we would just throw the script on the floor, [saying] 'this is is irrelevant, let's just work on something rea
Shifting the game's hype train into high gear, developer Rockstar has been hard at work filling in our news feeds as of late, touting everything from radio station teases , to brand-new trailers and even a recreation of the GTA III Banshee sportscar . Now, the studio behind the mammoth sandbox franchise is sitting down to discuss the game's unusually sourced voice w
