Grand Theft Auto V officially announced

I am shaking right now...literally. I'm shaking with nothing but glee. I've stated before how little a fan I was of GTAIV but I came around quickly with the release of GTAIV's expansion packs due to their humour, gameplay and variety in missions...but this logo:

gta5official

And the date November 2nd will either be a delight or failure amongst gaming fans with a trailer being announced on the official Rockstar website in the most perfect and oblique way with:

TRAILER 11 02 11

The recent sale on Steam and Gamersgate may have been a sign but I barely even thought, nor predicted the release of a brand new game, let alone an announcement. The logo for the V is crafty and fantastically drawn to give the look of old money...a hint, perhaps but time will tell...less than a week, people, less than a week.

80% of voters think this story ROCKS!

I remember standing in line @ midnight when gta4 came out and when I got home and launched the game I was like FUCK YES! Now gta 5 has been announced this has just set off a ticking time bomb of excitement inside me! I know this game will be great I mean look at the games after GTA4 Following Up to GTAV (Red dead EPIC GAME, L.A. Noire EPIC GAME) this game will hit my pre orders one a UK date is confirmed! Oh and as for the PS Vita idea that would be INSANE!

5 dollars was a lot of money in the 1800s.

I'll pass unless they come up with something new, part 4 was just plain boring...

# um.. fanboys..eerywhere..XD — JC1978 2011-10-28 08:26

This whole series was too boring. They tried to be overly serious with humour tones, which failed hardcore. Maybe this time its with Ben Franklin and how he made it big? lol I will ALWAYS prefer Saints Row over this crap of a series. Saints row is funny, and yet their tones of "urgency" remain. They know when to include jokes, GTA does not.

# Multi City — Leodrqaz 2011-10-30 11:44

I'm really hoping they will do a San Andreas style multi city environment although I'm worried that it may not be possible if they have to do an Xbox version as I can't see how it can fit onto a single dual layer DVD. As i understand it San Andreas filled a dual layer DVD and that was six years ago! Perhaps they could have a mandatory hard disk install for that version or just change disc when you travel to another city or something.

-The protagonist is Hispanic and his name is Adrian.
-It takes place in San Andreas in 2012. The Mayan end of the world is parodied a lot because of this.
-You start out in Los Santos and are in your rival’s turf, Varrios Los Aztecas, after getting beaten up and robbed.
-The game revolves around money in a big deal. I’d reveal the big idea, but I don’t want to ruin it.
-Multiplayer is in again. There are a couple of new game modes, co-op story, and 32-player game modes for consoles and 64 player for PC. PC also includes dedicated servers.
-PC comes out on launch and is being ported by Leeds. From what they have shown us it is optimized much better than GTA 4.
-San Andreas includes all the same cities from GTA SA and this time they have all became ab it bigger as well as much more detailed.
-Gang turf wars are back. This time not only the general gang are in charge but different sets such as57th Ballas or the Eastside Azteca. They have their own graffiti. You can tag up stuff with custom sprays now too.
-”The money” I refer to comes from a massive drug trade that ships to San Andreas. Its fought over a lot throughout the story and it comes with lots of money. It has ties to your family so it becomes a bigger deal.
-The timeline continues off of GTA 4. It is referenced a lot. I’m not really sure whether Niko dies but he’s mentioned at least twice.
-Car modding is back so is lowriding of course.
-There are 9 radio stations. It features a range of music. Some of the rap is new, some is old. There’s a better selection than GTA 4 though IMO.
-Military has returned in the 6 star wanted level except they are referred to as National Guard.
-Cover system is upgraded and plays more smoothly.
-The moral decisions you saw in GTA IV have more effect on the story now. There are at otal of 4 unique endings. 2 bad, 2 good. Whether the protag dies in all of them you’ll just have to figure out since the endings are actually pretty cool.
-More girlfriends.
-Parachutes.
-Fun cheats are back!
The poster also claims that the Grand Theft Auto V trailer debuting on November 2 is one minute and four seconds long, and that it is “relatively peaceful and shows off the city.” Whether or not this is all bunk remains to be seen, although if his or her strangely specific claims about trailer length turn out to be true, we may have some serious spoilers on our hands.
