    My wife purchased GTA by mistake for her young nephew. It may be ok for 18 and older.

    It should be banned. Not a good example for the young people. It discriminates against Latinamerican people.

    After reading other reivews we bought this game for our son. As an adult I would not play this game! We accepted the loss and sold it back to the store. If you a a parent that cares anything about what your child is playing stay far away from this game. My husband said he would not even play it as an adult that understands it's just a game.

    This is the worst hideous game ever! If you want your teen to learn to be at thug or possibly do jail time, then this game is for you! I accidentally came into the room when my son was playing this on Christmas morning. When he took a bathroom break I smashed it to pieces and threw it away. I can't believe anyone would sell this hideous game!

    I didn't buy this. This was purchased for my 12 year old sister. Frankly, I'm against anyone that is unable to purchase an M rated game on their own playing it. Parents need to actually do research on these games before they buy them for their kids because they want to be cool because their friends are playing it.

    this game is HORRIBLE! As a women I find this game inappropriate in every single way! This game shows that it's ok to beat women, have intercourse with women, and steal money! Way to go Grand theft auto you have done a great service to all young men!

    This game is virtually useless to most useless to the casual game player. Costs too much to buy extra hard drive storage just to play this one game. Ended up selling the game half price to buy one we could play. Useless purchase in my opinion.

    It's really sad that I bought this game and found out on Christmas day that my God son couldn't play it since it was defective. Really upset with this purchase, waiting for best buy to restock to exchange the copy for a new one.

    I would get a different game. Something like call of duty or battle field. I also enjoyed skyrim, the fallout games, borderlands one and two, the fable series, crackdowns one and two and of course the halos.

    The best GTA so far

    Posted .

    let's clarify the installation confusion. First, load up your install disc and it'll install to your HDD automatically. Second, DO NOT install the play disc to the HDD with the dashboard install. You either play it off the disc drive or you install the play disc to a USB drive if you don't want a non-stop spinning disc all the time. You'll get optimal performance this way. They improved the shooting. Yes they did. Now it shoots like a top of the line TPS. Played Max Payne 3? Yes, now it's like that, even better than RDR. The driving. I think it's better. It's still not Forza but it's good. The graphic is amazing, the environment is believable and the NPCs are all carefully designed so you don't feel like you're in a city of bots. Tons and tons of stuff you can do but I won't spoil it for you. Play the game and you'll see how grand this game is. One thing though, this one is definitely not for kid. It has some pretty strong S content. It's rated mature for a reason. Don't forget GTA online is on its way and I doubt it'll disappoint because of how good GTA5 is. Another quality game from Rockstar.

    Don't buy it. I'm going to return it. The language was beyond bad. Car control is trash and so is the gun control.

    Excellent game for the mature gamer.

    GTA V has become one of my favorite games on the market. The story line is both interesting and fun with a perfect balance between a shooting game and a driving game. The three characters you can play as (Franklin, Michael, and Trevor) aren't just three characters that go along and fight the force, but each one has their own personality that's completely different from each other. When playing online there are a couple of jerks that will blow you up or shoot you down for no reason, but this exists in pretty much every game. This is one of those games that you need to go out and play before you buy, though, it may not be for everyone. Especially go and try it first if you're planning on buying it for a younger teenager, and please don't even consider it for anyone younger than 15. There is a good reason it's rated M for mature.
