NowGamer: With a lack of games exclusive to this generation of console hardware after GTA 5's release, Rockstar's game is shaping up to be the last great console game of this gen.
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.
Former Rockstar Games Technical Director Obbe Vermeij has finally revealed why some planes would randomly crash in GTA: San Andreas.
This fly by feature was on the cutting room floor due to the random plane crashes and it's one of those things I'm so thankful made it into the final version as these random fly by and crashes make the world seem more alive on the extremely limited PS2 hardware you needed everything you could possibly get in a open world to convey that feeling.
And accross hundreds of hours of gameplay I probably died around 3 times as a result of these fly by failures but I loved every time it happened
It made the world feel more human, and honestly kinda insane that even today with all these open world games, almost no one can capture that like R* even when compared to their ps2 games
Lol, I remember those. I vaguely remember dying from one crashing into my car once too.
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.
I think it just might be this gens GREATEST game. Just like R* to end this generation with a bang!
I think so, but then I am a BIT of a fan of GTA. I even enjoyed GTA 4. I know, right?!
funny people already claim a game will be great without knowing anything about it other the names of the main characters :D
No, this gen's last great game will be watch dogs, which just so happens to also usher in the next gen =)
Probably not, to be honest. Dark Souls 2 has the potential ro be great and it may release after GTA5 sooooo...
I'm sure we'll probably see another great game on the system.
