Grand Theft Auto V Previews from Around the World including a Full Week of Features at IGN
After Game Informer's preview last week, outlets around the world had their chance to check out Grand Theft Auto V. IGN's week of exclusive content kicked off yesterday with their impressions of the game so far:
“One thing’s for sure, the most exciting aspect of GTA V is not just the way it promises to shake up the open-world genre, but also the freedom and flexibility it promises… Grand Theft Auto V could be the benchmark by which all other games – not just open-world games – will be judged against.”
IGN's preview can be found here. Their editors also sat down for a roundtable discussion about the game, and they've got a full week of additional coverage planned - including a live extended Rewind Theater for Trailer #2. To see the full week of content as it unfolds, just click here.
UK's Guardian newspaper also got an in-depth preview of the game as well:
"This is Grand Theft Auto V, the latest title in a series that has dragged video games kicking and screaming onto the cultural agenda. GTA has always been about possibilities. That is why it is so exciting to see the series return, amid the indie titles it has inspired, and the Triple A titles that have grown up in its shadow. Grand Theft Auto has always sought to push at what game worlds are, it is inarguably ambitious."

this is for those who love san andreas and gta v
so why not join grove st
I await a response
As for the gang wars, remember on San Andreas where the dots would pop up on screen? Well, it'd be great if you could fix the bug that makes rival members get stuck in weird places when they pop up. I remember having to run out of the zone (sometimes leading me to fail) or having to move around until they accidentally free themselves. Also, improved AI for fellow gang members, or increased control of them perhaps.
Also, drug dealing like in Chinatown wars. Great fun, but don't make it so easy that you can make a couple of hundred thousand in a day from the start. Just like little street corner $10/$20 deals, then as you meet the bigger hustlers, you move up (as with the risk). It could be like a taxi mission thing, get a bonus for ten in a row. Free drinks could be a fun bonus for those who hit a target.
God, I could go on for ages. Write to me if you want more ideas ha ha! This game will be the best. Love the fine details and comedy value.
Also with the drug dealing, if you had some on you and you walked past a dog-unit/cop with dog, they'd bark at you/stop search you (as with gta4 you could run away). Also, thought about luring guard dogs away with food? Or you could add some tranquillisers to food for certain situations.
btw don't forget to put strip clubs :P
I would've loved to play darts or go bowling whilst I just chatted with friends. I often use the xbox party chat to just 'chew the cud' with friends without us playing an actual game together, would be nice if we could've played pool etc.
The ingame games were so fantastically executed in programming terms it was a real shame you couldn't use them with friends. I read you've got a fully playable golf course this time, just make sure it's available in freeroam please along with any others you chuck in this time around.!
By all means put the Bowling, darts, and pool in too, may aswell seeing as you already have the programming for them?
