Description
Los Santos: a sprawling sun-soaked metropolis full of self-help gurus, starlets and fading celebrities, once the envy of the Western world, now struggling to stay afloat in an era of economic uncertainty and cheap reality TV. Amidst the turmoil, three very different criminals plot their own chances of survival and success: Franklin, a former street gangster, now looking for real opportunities and serious money; Michael, a professional ex-con whose retirement is a lot less rosy than he hoped it would be; and Trevor, a violent maniac driven by the chance of a cheap high and the next big score. Running out of options, the crew risks everything in a series of daring and dangerous heists that could set them up for life.Grand Theft Auto V is the largest and most ambitious game Rockstar Games has yet created and takes full advantage of every ounce of processing power available in the current generation of consoles. In order to provide the best possible experience for such a massive and detailed world, the game will have installation requirements on the Xbox 360. Grand Theft Auto V will ship on two discs; Disc 1 will be used for a one-time mandatory install and Disc 2 will be used to play the game. After the install, players will be able to enjoy both Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online without any need to switch discs. This initial install will require an Xbox 360 hard drive or an external 16GB USB flash drive (sold separately) with at least 8GB of free space. If using a USB flash drive, it must be at least USB 2.0 with a minimum 15mb/s read speed and formatted for Xbox 360 use. A new USB flash drive is recommended to ensure optimal performance.

Instead of focusing on a single protagonist character as in the previous GTA titles, in GTA V you can choose to play the missions from the perspective of 3 different characters. Michael, Franklin, and Trevor come from 3 very different backgrounds, and while each have their own personal agendas... you (playing the role of one of these characters) must work together with the others to successfully complete each heist. You can also switch characters at the press of a button, thereby letting you play from each one's perspective, and these characters also have their own set of skills as well as a special ability! All of this greately adds to the variety and replayability of the game. From a graphical and technical standpoint, the game is absolutely gorgeous and plays very well, with a the excepion of a couple of minor bugs or glitches here and there that can result in clumsy or awkward movement in a tight space. But other than that, you have one of the largest, varied, most interesting, and best looking gaming environments of all time. And you have the freedom to do a lot of "freeplay" causing all sorts of havoc and getting into all kinds of situations in the superbly created virtual world that is Los Santos! And multi-play also returns to the series in GTA V, giving online co-op players as well as competitors a little extra fun to be had here as well. All in all, this is undoubtedly the best GTA title to date, and it's a superb technical achievement in the video game industry as well.

GTA 5 has a great storyline and the gameplay is amazing. Being able to switch between multiple caracters is awesome, as well as being able to set up some missions and exciting them how you want. I have played every GTA that has been created and this is by far my favorite. The graphics are really nice. The only bad thing is that there is a lot of profanity, even for a GTA game.

Every aspect of GTA 5 has been refined. Gunplay is tighter, story is fantastic, and the radio personalities are amazing as usual. Playing as Trevor may be tough for the squeamish. There are a few intense scenes involving explicit themes. If you were a fan of San Andreas you will love 5, it's a triumphant return to the series' roots and polished in every aspect. Occasionally there are some framerate stutters but they rarely affect gameplay and considering the size and scale of the open world this game is beautiful. It's amazing what Rockstar was able to do on current generation hardware and GTA 5 is their swan song as they move on to the powerful next gen hardware .

The wait finally over and definitely worth the wait. The storyline is amazing. Lots to do. Fun side missions. This is game is DEFINITELY Rated M. A lot of mature contents and language. Have to wait for October 1st for online gameplay but I know it'll be worth the wait as well.

This game has what everyone expects in a single-player Grand Theft Auto game and some. The map is bigger than any other map in the previous games. The characters are relatable and the storyline is easy to follow. the missions are endless and they are fun and well thought out. The game offers many activities and odd missions to do in Los Santos. New features like the ability to choose your team for a heist is epic since you decide the amount of pay that each team member receives based on their skill level. There is a ton of freedom in the game so it doesn't really feel like you are forced to follow a plain storyline. There are many options and decisions that you will have to make in the game resulting in different outcomes.The game never gets dull. Each mission becomes more interesting and there is plenty to do after the story has been completing. This game was well worth my money. I would NOT recommend this game for children. Other games are overrated but for this game should only be for those over 16.

Fun to go on missions. The language is HORRIBLE, but the rating reflects that. I am only saying I would not recommend to a friend because of the language and themes.
