Review: Grand Theft Auto V PC

From WarhammerWorkshop


"I'm sure part of that is that I've already played a lot of GTA V, but it's also because I just don't think about the main characters as much, since I can't see them. I'm a big fan of removing clutter and making games as immersive as possible, and first-person GTA achieves an entirely new level of immersion for the seri


Why did they unveil the trailer at that time and when would the game come out? Comparing the announcement to previous Rockstar Games unveilings and corresponding release dates led most media outlets to believe the game would be coming this fall, but with Rockstar pushing back the release date of Max Payne 3 to avoid competing against Mass Effect 3 (a la Ghost Recon: Future Soldier ), we're now second-guessing ourselves for placing it in our list of most anticipated games of 20


The Witcher series is another that started as semi-open world, but didn't dive into the genre completely until its latest entry. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt tears down the restrictive barriers that kept the previous games from being fully open world, letting Geralt explore one of the largest open worlds in gaming history. What's even more impressive about The Witcher 3 's open world is that despite its immense size, the game still manages to have an absurd level of detail that's just not found in most tit


Seeing Paramount announce a 2013 release date for Star Trek a few days ago, another one of our most anticipated games of the year, we now wonder if we have another game on our most anticipated list not actually releasing this year. Then again, it could be at E3 2012 where we see some major announcement of GTA V potentially being a launch title for the Wii U , something that was heavily rumored last summer... wouldn't that be e


Gamers can't seem to get enough of exploring the vast worlds provided by open world games, as evidenced by the success of recent open world games like Horizon: Zero Dawn and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild . Looking to the future, there are plenty of other open world games on the horizon that are brimming with potential, such as Middle-earth: Shadow of War and Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption 2 . As it stands, there seems to be no end in sight for the open world genre, and we're not complain

Rockstar continues to improve upon one of the greatest games of all time, not to mention getting over the hump that haunted them for the past seven years. While not as significant of an overhaul as when they brought it to PS4 and Xbox One, Grand Theft Auto V offers the most graphical options and accessibilities on PC. It’s not without its launch compatibility issues, but they are small in comparison to other games of its size. There’s seemingly endless fun to be had with GTAV, and it certainly helps that their online component has grown significantly since it debuted in 2013. Grand Theft Auto Online alone should be enough to persuade gamers now that heists have been added to the experience. Whether recommended you read were able to hold out over the last year and half, or even played through it on one of the consoles versions, GTAV on PC isn’t an experience to pass up on as it beckons to be played again.


Franklin expresses his confusion, while Michael calls Trevor a redneck. You can also send these pictures to other characters like Cheng Jr., who assumes it to be some kind of a disguised threat. Oh, and don't worry, you can send these pictures to 911 as well, who will understandably be exasperated by your childish acti


Red Dead Redemption takes everything people love about western movies and blends it with Grand Theft Auto -style gameplay and storytelling. Red Dead Redemption delivers a compelling open world populated by a cast of unforgettable characters, and is punctuated by one of the best endings in gaming history . Considering how Rockstar hit it out of the park with its first attempt at an open world western, expectations are high for the followup, Red Dead Redemption 2 , which is expected to release in fall of 2


For Halo: The Master Chief Collection the deal was sweetened by including all main entries in one package. But for Grand Theft Auto V , the developers at Rockstar Games have turned to a truly surprising conclusion. The game has never looked better (or more realistic ), and online Heists are long-anticipated - but it's the new perspective players will get on the world of Los Santos that's turning he


"Writing reviews for games that have been rereleased a year or two after their debut is often a difficult prospect, as one struggles to find new things to say. It’s telling, then, that I was able to find talking about Grand Theft Auto V‘s improvements so easy, eating up almost a thousand words on detailing all the advancements. More than perhaps any other game out there, GTA V could easily have gotten away with churning out a slightly better looking game and calling it a day. That a game could be guaranteed money no matter how slapdash the production, and still go above and beyond what other publishers have done this year, is incredibly laudable, and at least worth a golf clap. Even if you don’t care for the series, one cannot deny the pride Rockstar appears to have in its games. While I’d love 60fps, and could do with the overall controls feeling a little bit tighter, I can’t deny that Rockstar’s put the effort into this one, and it’s one of the few double downs I’d feel relatively confident recommending to those who’ve already played it. That, in itself, is profou
