The game overall is very good from graphics to gameplay it had much to offer, although some features promised for the online has yet to be implemented. The single player has much to offer with great story and lots of content. Overall this is a must have game for gamers.

Overall this is the best game to date for the GTA series. The map is huge there is a wide range of missions and things to do in the city. Gameplay is a lot of fun and the option to switch up between 3 different characters is a great new addition. It feels like everything has been improved and you can go wrong getting this.
However due to the language and some of the missions i would not let anyone under the age of 18 play this. Its got a lot of adult situations in it and its not for children at all.

Worth the wait!!!!!!!!! This game pays tribute to all its predecessors in games, and in the genre of heists and thievery. Classic references in the script to movies and television, along with new interesting storyline and dialogue. The graphics are phenomenal and the music on the radio is topnotch with great selections for all tastes (classic rock features Queen, Bob Seger, Stevie Nicks, and much much more).
This game is a must buy for all who have enjoyed the series and even those who haven't.

Grand Theft Auto is not for the young! Parental guidance is a must! That being said, it is a great game. Lots of action and tons of things to do within the game. I would highly recommend this game.

Easily the best game this generation. Rockstar has created a great Open World game that has over 50 activities to do, 69 Missions for the Story with plenty of other side missions. Missions are varied and never get boring. Great humor and story with 3 playable characters. Easily get 100's of hours on single player alone and Online hasn't' even come out yet which probably add much more replay value to the game. Graphics and Sound are top notch, easily the best I seen in a game of this scale.

So Far GTA V has lived up to the hype, the open world environment is huge and detailed. Switching between characters and having them work together is really interesting. The side games like golf, darts, etc. are actually pretty good mini games to take a break from the story line.
The one complaint is the language. I understand that the game is rated M but nudity, shooting can be avoided if you aren't on a mission and just want to play around. But I can't play the game without headphones because I don't want to have the rest of the house listen to F-Bombs every 15 seconds. The shouts come from passing cars, pedestrians, Cops. yelling "F******C***S***** at you It would be nice to have a language censor/filter that would tone it down. I'm just saying be prepared to hear F-you about 1000 times.
This game definitely is rated M for every reason listed. Keep that in mind when your 13 year old asks for it.

The game stays true to the GTA name. The map is huge, on the ground, in the air, and under water. Graphically the game looks great, the controls are well put together and responsive.
Things I like:
Being able to hunt was a lot of fun.
The ability to make a choice on how you attack the heists.
Being able to change characters on the fly (except at certain times)
Things I didn't like:
Inability to change the reticle. The reticle is too hard to see, especially against white/light back drops. It is extremely tiny and you can't do anything to change it.
I also am severely disappointed in the fact that there was no online at launch.
Overall I gave the game a 4 out of 5. Game is great, takes a little bit of getting used to the controls off the bat, but after a few missions it'll feel normal. Once the multiplayer launches on the 1st of October I think this game will easily warrant a 5 star rating.

Rockstar has outdone itself with GTA V! This game is incredibly fun, totally immersive, with a great story line and fun gameplay. The map is huge with lots to explore, there are tons of cool cars to steal and crash, and plenty of cool weapons to perform your dirty deeds. I can't recommend this one enough! Sure, it's not appropriate for children, but us older gamers have a real treat here!

What is not to love its GTA??A larger than life open world with the option to accept or decline MANY challenges and missions or just run around on your own wreaking havoc on the city folk and or law enforcement,low life's,criminals,rich,etc. Steal a car,a boat,a motorcycle,money,etc. Feeling violent & wanna smash some skulls?? Pick your victim or victims & go to town but be prepared to run because there are consequences if you stick around too long or can't find a good escape route.

"Everything works. It has mechanics good enough to anchor games of their own, and a story that is not only what GTA has always wanted to tell but also fits the way people have always played it. It’s a remarkable achievement, a peerless marriage of world design, storytelling and mechanics that pushes these ageing consoles to the limit and makes it all look easy. As we stand on the brink of a new generation, GTAV sends an intimidating message to the rest of the industry. Beat that."

Really great game, I'd recoomend this. The rating is very acurate, so don't get this for your 13 year old. It's M for a reason, even if they have previous GTA's. It's not like the others, it's very realistic, including scenes(which I can't say in this review) loads of language and a bunch of drug scenes. Very good and though, I'm just not a fan of the influence it can have on some kids especially those under 16 or so. Great story, epic graphics, no loading screens and tons to do.

Grand Theft Auto V is a wonderful open world game. Grand Theft Auto V is teeming with life and welcoming to everyone who is mature enough to handle adult themes. The game provides an extensive amount of content and (traveling) which takes some getting used to. I wouldn't recommend to those that get side tracked easily as there is much to do on side missions, perhaps the side work should be left to the completists. Well worth the investment for a rainy day with nothing else to do.

this is the best video game ever made it is easily the dankest game most realistic that storyline most entertaining most violence most fun fun fun!commissions are all unique and you can play them in many different ways not just the way the game want you to plan so your imagination can run wild based on what you want to do you can also control multiple players during the same mission to help each other Plus playing the stock market to make some cash flow is also a good time.

GTA 5 Is an amazing game that has superb graphics for a GTA game. A better story than previous, and Just plain fun especially with the new things to do. And the Online well still has bugs but recently plays really well. I recomend this to anyone who loves GTA or plain open world games but not for children since they can get some really mature language and themes. But know you child first. Like if hes really mature and responsible and is around 13-16 than think about it.

Fantastic story and presentation. Rockstar isn't afraid to present layered, self-aware, and deeply flawed characters at the player.
The open-world gameplay is great and side activities are actually fun in their own right. I played a full set of tennis before taking part in any sort of crime spree. Crime is mixed with personal lives and the two aspects of your characters' lives intertwine nicely.
It's an amazing experience in a year notable for amazing experiences.

I'm playing the 360 version, and I'm finding the game very fun. With all open world games, sometimes I can feel paralyzed with Soo much to do. The game play is improved, the graphics don't look like they should be possible on the current gen systems. and as always the music is outstanding. Some scenes are a tad intense, and unskipable. Beyond that I'm enjoying the giant playground that was made for me to play in. If you can play this game in any fashion you want.

GTA V is the best GTA game I have played. The three protagonists are an awesome concept and it is well executed. The gameplay is improved over previous versions. It has tighter controls and a blast to play. The Story is full of the crazy stuff you'd expect from Rockstar and is great for an adult gamer. GTA Online at this time is still full of glitches making it not worth your time. However if it is fixed with the 3rd patch it has the potential to be tons of fun.

I have owned every GTA game since GTA 3, and I was dissapointed with GTA 4 because it was not even close to being as good as San Andreas and Vice City, but GTA 5 is the best game that I have ever played. The graphics are mind blowing and the gameplay is smooth. I really like that they changed the driving aspect, making it more realistic. The storyline is good and I enjoy playing it. I cannot wait to see what all Rockstar Gaming has planned for the online play.
