[HK6]

There is a fourth one as well.

[Whitefeather]

Sound weird stuff is happening to the tires in that pic.

[nveenio]

It almost looks like he's hitting something, but the collision boundary is not quite right.

[BiggCMan]

I would also like to point out that these pictures go back to the black individual shown from the trailer, while the pictures from a few days ago were the white male. This has to mean they are both playable, doesn't it? Just some fun speculation, they are both important, we know that. And I have also had the idea since November that the black male could be CJ from San Andreas. They have something up their sleeve, no doubt.

[Awesome_Gamer]

Mulitple protags is pretty much confirmed at this point, the guy driving the red infernus in one of the new screenshots is the same hispanic guy that was driving a red Audi R8 in the debut trailer and he is also the same we hanging from a truck in one of the screenshots, add this with the fact that Ned luke (balcony guy) is already pretty much confirmed to be one of the protags as he is seen driving a hydra in a screenshot.

So we have 2 protagonists on our hand right now..

[Dee_91]

wow at all the "next gen" and "must be pc" talk.
I quit. no reason in trying slow down the hype train on the graphics anymore.Despite all the glaring similarities to gtaiv graphics wise im not gonna let these comments distract me from the amazingness-nees in these screeens.

Believe it or not someone said this looks better than bf3 on pc lol.Excitment apparently clouds peoplee vision.
im over it.
you guys can play it on your ps4 next year lmao

[Blacktric]

Those water shaders in the second picture literally made me choke. Jesus that looks f*king fantastic.

[nveenio]

I wonder if it's on console or PC. They didn't even release Red Dead on PC, so it makes me wonder. If this is on console, I'm stoked. If it's on PC, then I'll definitely be buying the PC version.

[00001]

current-gen or next-gen? that is my question about these screenshots and the game.

[JellyJelly]

Must be PC with shaders and textures as crisp as those.

[gtr_loh]

Could be console; the textures and shaders on LA Noire looked just as fantastic on the consoles.

[FragMnTagM]

I bet any amount that they are console shots. They may be touched up a bit, maybe not, but I can 99% guarantee they are console shots.

[RyuX19]

Yeah these screenshots actually made me say "Whoa" lol.

[iamgoatman]

@inveni0

"They didn't even release Red Dead on PC"

But they did put the extra leg work into the PC version of Max Payne 3, and it turned out great.

But yeah, I'm going with PC shots based on the textures in the plane pic.

[-Ghost]

The guy in the screenshots looks like the guy in the trailer with the red convertible(revving the car when the girl passes by) and when he's being chased by the cops(1:04 on trailer). Perhaps we get to use multiple characters?

[Knight_Crawler]

I am still finding it hard to believe that this game is shaping up to be as massive as San Andreas was and the graphics look like this on the 360 and PS3 - call me skeptic but I wont believe it until I see the PS3 and 360 logo on the game box.

If R* can pull of GTA 5 with a massive world, stunning graphics like this and more customization than GTA 4 then I take back everything I said about next gen desperately needed.

[Pandemic]

That water looks amazing.

[ajax17]

Even if this does release on current gen consoles I'd rather have the PS4 or next Xbox version.

[GearSkiN]

Oh man!

[Prcko]

This is must have GAME!!!
day 1!!!

[SolidStoner]

cant agree more! I just want it now! they can add all gameplay stuff with updates :D

[Lucretia]

not impressed. As long as its fun like the old gta's i will play it though, but if its as crappy as 4, no thank you

[OMEGAZONE]

If you don't like GTAIV thats fine, but don't call a modern masterpiece crappy just because you didn't enjoy it.

[d0nni3]

A modern masterpiece is a bit strong! the game was good, i enjoyed it a lot more than most of my friends but a masterpiece it wasn't

[Trenta27]

We have seen NO gameplay. Wait.

[YodaCracker]

@Lucretia

The only way in which Saints Row reminds me of last gen GTA games are the driving physics. That's right, Saints Row's driving physics feel like a PS2 game. No sense of weight or realism to the vehicles. That was perfectly acceptable in 2004, but not on current gen consoles.

GTA IV's driving is a much more dynamic experience and it added so much to the game. So refreshing after the arcadey controls in almost all other open world games. Power-sliding around every corner at full speed with the tap of a button, overly-sensitive steering, stopping on a dime, canned damage modeling (car dents the same way every crash)... that crap is embarrassing to see after playing GTA IV, but I guess Rockstar just likes to spoil us.

[cee773]

dont give me that gt4 driving was good physics crap cuz it sucked, how could anyone defend it foreign cars stops on a dime how come a Mercedes, aston martin etc. control like the 87 grand national in gt4? answer that ive driven older foreign cars 2000 mercedes 500 class to newer 08-09 600 series all the cars in gt4 control like the have bad shocks and struts lol very bouncy the mercedes and aston has some of the best handling, gt4 did it no justice only in the looks department

[gtr_loh]

@cee773. You did drive in real life before.. RIGHT? No car stops on a dime, GTA IV's driving was arcadey to my standards but it was a major improvement from GTA San Andreas. Before you think an Aston or Merc can stop on a dime, go drive one at 100km/hr and tell me that you can stop on a dime, because I can tell you right now that if you hit the brakes dead on, you'll be skidding like no tomorrow.

[BitbyDeath]

The cars were horrible in GTAIV. PS2 GTA's are leagues better.

[TheRealSpy]

i prefer unrealistic driving physis in a sandbox game. the reason i stopped playing gta 4 was because it became really tedious getting back in my car and driving from point a to point b.

Contrarily, i never got tired of driving around in Sleeping Dogs.

@gtr_loh: not to mention that you'd probably suffer organ damage, or at least some internal bleeding, as everything in your body smashes up against your rib cage.

i'm not sure i'd enjoy a game where i end up in the hospital every time i hit the breaks.

[M-M]

I laughed so hard when I read Lucretia's post, looked at his disagrees, then saw that the next comment replying to him was marked as a personal attack. LOL.

[TheKayle]

the prob is ....if this game will be out on this gen...console versions will be downgraded sooo much :/ impossible to get that res/textures on a console so i hope it is for next gen console gen

[Conzul]

I know that's what I was just thinking looking at those :-(

[Shaman]

These are console shots people how many time that has to be said -.-'

[Twilightx7]

Can you point me to the announcement that these were console shots? I've only seen people on forums claiming it to be so, but no Rockstar PR quote yet.

[Shaman]

I can't point you but I can tell you that these screens (and trailer) are rendered at native 720p with some kind of post processing AA(probably FXAA). Like all R* screenshots this gen, these are definitely from console, probably 360 like RDR and MP3 ones.

Since RAGE is deferred shading engine (like KZs, Cryengine 3, BF3) dropping 2xMSAA on console probably gave them 10-15% of performance back, and halved their g buffer memory so thats where the good gfx come from. Plus, its probably optimized like crazy since all R* teams update RAGE when new games are released (RDR, MP3).

[ShinMaster]

You must not be familiar with the recent trend of multiplatform games on PC being console ports *cough*Crysis 2.

PC version = enhanced console port.

[shaneTsung]

the water look just that good on red dead

[Convas]

Infernus?! Those water effects?! Laser sights?! (Could be from the helicopter though)

"Hope you enjoyed this week’s 10 screenshot special from Grand Theft Auto V.

We will be back with some more to see in a few weeks or so."

Rockstar are just playing games now. My hype levels know no bounds!

[Conzul]

Do these have good storylines / plot? I've never played one ...

[GiantFriendlyCrab]

are you 12 ?

[Conzul]

Nah 22.

[Irishguy95]

Hmm...sorta ironic. It's not something you get for the plot. But the stories are fun.

[THEonlyBONBON]

Literally said "oh my god" out loud when I read that. Are you new to the whole video game thing?

[SAE]

if you want the best story of them play iv , the others are more fun in the gameplay , iv is more serious ...

v will be in middle , serious story and graphics , fun gameplay and huge features like the other gta games ...

[BitbyDeath]

To answer your questions, yes GTA games have great storylines. Not so much IV though (bit on the boring side), but others have been awesome. Vice City is my favourite.

[ShinMaster]

Only the extra episodes had a good story. GTAIV by itself didn't.

If you want story, play Sleeping Dogs. You'll also be rewarded with better driving mechanics, shooting and hand to hand combat.

[roadkillers]

I ******* called it!

http://n4g.com/news/1065263...

Whoever gave me that disagree can kiss my ass :)

[Hazmat13]

it might be the old, looks great far away. but get closer and its crap. but hey gta is gta all i do is kill cops with friend's online played the BOGT storyline but never finished the GTA4 one. lol so far my fav sandbox games are soon to be GTA5 and Saints Row 4.

[guitar_nerd_23]

Wow, the GTA engine come on a long way since IV.

[pandehz]

They better not just do a direct port to pc like last time.
Copy GTA4PS3.exe to c:\GTA4PC, rename GTA4PS3.exe to GTA4PC.exe
Burn dvd's

The horrors of GTA 4 are still faced today.

[pr0digyZA]

I am sure the PC version will be better than in the past, as Rockstar has said they want to focus on PC now- for example they said max payne 3 was done by them on PC instead of outsourcing (and it shows).

[pandehz]

True, Max Payne 3 was dam well optimized for pc. I loved it

[shutUpAndTakeMyMoney]

GTA5 + ice enhancer = :)

[EazyC]

Well, my hype-o-meter just exploded to smitherines.

God i <3 GTA

[Straightupbeastly]

This is a next gen game people

[PersonMan]

That's not next gen. Are you kidding? I hope next gen looks way better than this. This is "this-gen" graphics.

[Plagasx]

This is "PC" graphics...

[PersonMan]

Plagasx: These screens are from the console, I guarantee it.

[NastyLeftHook0]

your confusing it with the last of us.

[Kinger8938]

i assume these to be pc shots? hope it looks this good in actual motion/gameplay

[FragMnTagM]

Console most likely.

[first1NFANTRY]

hopefully we get a new gameplay vid soon. the wait is a killer

edit: the guy in the lambo and the high jacking pic looks like an African American. it could be CJ from GTA:SA or another black protagonist.

[ab5olut10n]

you can't always trust rockstars screenshots. i remember a shot from gta4 of a multiplayer game where one player was piloting a chopper and another was leaping down on top of an armored car. i was crazy stoked only to find out upon release that you could only hang on the top of ONE vehicle in the entire game, and it was a scripted sequence. just saying, take these with a grain of salt. they may just be cool looking set up shots.

[Trenta27]

Jizz in my pants.

[PersonMan]

Expect a release date from Rockstar soon. They've been showing GTA V off a lot lately. They may be almost ready for some big news!

I'm so excited!

[TrevorPhillips]

This game looks absolutely amazing! :O I want it now please R*

[Sketchy_Galore]

Beautiful, keep 'em coming. A few more and we'll be able to print them out and make a flip book of the entire game.

[steve30x]

People say R* isnt doing any marketing for GTA V but over the past week weve had 11 pictures so far. Thats marketing in my opinion. Its the start of whats yet to be revealed. In my humble opinion I dont think they are far off revealing a release date.

[hennessey86]

A new trailer soon, there has been a steady release of screen shots so I live in hope

[Kidmyst]

Curious if this is Console because it looks really good and what would this run at if so.

[sovietsoldier]

i want to see how the police and cops are in this game. will there be motorcycle police? vice squad or undercover police? will they put the army back back in?

[-Gespenst-]

Dat biplane screenshot, holy cow it's beautiful.

ALSO: The swat guys have laser sights, cool.

[modesign]

this is starting to look like a end of a generation game, this will be a nice addition to the current gen games that will hold me until the next gen along with AC3, Farcry3, God of war, Last of us, Beyond, Dishonered, and watchdogs, cant wait for next gen to arrive (unless the industry takes a step back to "save money").

[violents]

They have to be pc screen shots nothing looks that good on a console. Looks like and awsome game tho, cant wait.

[steve30x]

I agree. Unless they have optomised the game a loy then the current gen consoles wouldnt look that good.

[Shaman]

I really don't know how much will I have to repeat it, but these are console shots. They are native 720p with FXAA. Look at GTAIV pre release screens and compare them to the retail console versions. They look the same. Do the same for RDR and MP3 and you will see that R* doesn't put bullshots. Why would they put screens with aliasing and 720p for marketing if they aren't marketing it for consoles? Think about it.

[Organization XII]

I'm somewhat convinced by your statement regarding the use of FXAA only for the purpose of marketing and all that bullshit. But what about that depth of field? Don't tell me that a console does dof so smooth especially in an open world game in the caliber of GTA! I bet you can't explain that.

[SephirothX21]

Screen shots are console I suspect. Even though they look great, we have to see real gameplay in action still. I'm thinking May 2013 release.

[Dougz_G]

R* never disappoint, the quality of their games is always top notch in my opinion, I got so hyped for GTA IV and don't want to do the same for this, it made time go so slow near release!

[WeskerChildReborned]

So a trailer is coming soon or what? I mean all these screenshot must mean something.

[megalonagyix]

those graphics looks pretty average to PC standards *flies away*
i mean look at those textures on the second picture, fkin disgusting (and the water isnt even good)

[doncorleone]

Can't wait! Rarely does a game provide this much anticipation just with screenshots.

[LakerGamerEnthusiast]

LORD HAVE MERCY 0_0 these screenshots are mind fu*king BLOWING. I wish that you never let go of your ways R* nd continue to produce high quality games for the rest of time. Fu*king Bosses over at R* man.

[007Bond]

CANT FUCKING WAIT!!!

[PastyGangster]

That third screenshot definitely looks like CJ to me.

[stuntman_mike]

with all these pictures being released could we be getting this game sooner than we thought?

I really hope so.

[brich233]

blah blah blah, i have a big penis :) lol

[nepdyse]

If these are console screenshots,they look alright. I hope R* will surpass these: http://www.youtube.com/watc... http://www.youtube.com/watc... as far as visuals go for the PC. Gameplay needs to be more akin to SA. And if they don't, we'll the modders will do their job for them. PC ftw.

[Unztayble]

definitely my fave set of pics.

[Eyesoftheraven]

OMG. Looking so very, very sweet.

[iiMxBaCk]

be patient young grasshoppers

[krazeecain]

I'm gonna be optimistic and hope for a 2012 Q4 release.

Mind you I'm not gonna be "cautiously" optimistic, I like to live on the edge ;)

[oguzsasi]

FOR UNDERWATER TEAMDEATHMATCH :D

[timofimo]

The car on the truck looks like A Dukes.
