The Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of Grand Theft Auto 5 will exceed fan expectations, Take-Two boss Strauss Zelnick believes, who says that "nothing but the very best will satisfy Rockstar".
Grand Theft Auto V was released on PC on the 14th of April 2015. That means the game will be nine years old in four days, and it’s still among the most-played titles on Steam. With a 24-hour peak of 145K players, it’s as popular as Baldur’s Gate 3, Apex: Legends, and Destiny 2.
The freedom to explore large areas, approach objectives in multiple ways, and stumble across amusing distractions will always be an excellent format for video games, but some do it better than others. To celebrate the formula and parse the best from the best, have a look at the best open-world games of all time so far.
Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA 5 are both classics, but movement and general interaction sometimes feels like you're possessed by a fridge.
Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…
The controls of RDR2 felt a but cluncky indeed, but it’s not as bad as some make it out to be. At no point did I get the feeling my experience with the game was held back or ruined by the controls.
But it can never hurt to optimize them a bit, sure.
Red Dead Redemption felt clunky at first but I got used to it fairly quick. I thought 2 was easier to control but it could be my experience with the first game helped me out. Great games
I wouldn't call Rockstar games characters clunky instead they feel like they move with Weight they are not twitch controls press x to instantly snap onto cover the characters instead move like a actor would ducking behind cover they are exposed while they get there.
I missed out on two of the biggest games last gen. I'm glad I get to play this now that I have more time on my hands. I got to experience The Last of Us for the first time on PS4, next GTA5.
I know I will be picking this one up again. I really enjoyed it on PS3 but most of my clan mates stopped playing online once COD Ghosts came out. I am hoping that some will find the time to get this on PS4 and we can start playing it online some more when we aren't playing Destiny.
I'm buying it again
I'm 50/50 on this, I did enjoy GTA V a hell of a lot, but it's hard sometimes to pick up a copy of a game that you have already played.
Again, I might get it when it drops in price, same with a few other ports or remasters.
