GTA V is the pinnacle of everything Rockstar has done so far, and as close to a masterpiece as you can get.

I love Trevor's fashion sense if you just leave him to his own devices for a bit. Bloody hipster.

A pink polo shirt, stained jogging bottoms, cowboy boots, a handlebar tash and a balding mullet. Nice.

Whoa there partner.Who said this gen was over?

joab7773858d ago

Agree...but it essentially is. I would also give gta5 a 10 but not b/c its perfect....but b/c it isn't. I do believe that in many regards it is a culmination of gaming this generation. It looks fantastic...its a huge open world...has incredible detail...astonishing characters with a good story and we don't even have the multiplayer yet...which will probably b amazing too.

What I love though is that it is gonna force many to look at gameplay over sheer graphics. Yes...its beautiful but it begins to show us exactly what is capable with next gen systems...virtual worlda unlike anything we have ever seen. And it can and should carry over to other genres too. I know that companiea like cd projeckt and bioware looked at skyrim to see how to make their games better. Now everyone can look at gta5 to realize that we don't simply want better looking gamea...we want more complex, intricate games that challenge us in different ways. Many r worried about dragon age...but gta5 has begun to show us that companiea like bioware should b able to do incredible things with their storytelling abilities and moral decision making.

I just think that if rockstar pulles this off on this gen...the bar for next gen just got raised...and we will know if its simply the same ol same ol with a fresh coat of paint.

The last game I will buy this gen is definitely going to be R&C Into The Nexus. Ahh...I bought my 1st PS3 because of R&C Future ToD and am gonna end it with the same franchise too. Good times. After that, everything I'll buy will be PS4 games and I'll only play PS3 games coming to PS+. That's still gonna be A LOT!

Back on topic, I am almost finished with KZM and Puppeteer. Guess it's time to give in to the GTA hype. Here's hoping it's not gonna be a let down like the IV was!

AceBlazer133858d ago

Also going to jump on to the gta v hype train,here's hoping it's not another overhyped mess like gta iv.

Cost of realistic looking movement.

lucasnooker32d ago

Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…

Profchaos32d ago (Edited 32d ago )

Oh and hundreds of millions of dollars in revanue to boot.

Lots of complaints about gta ever since the hd era started and yet it's bugger than its ever been with gta vi up to 180 million trailer views alone. The next game is shaping it be be another genre defining game

MetalGearsofWar32d ago

They already learned they dont have to actually make a great game

sagapo32d ago

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.

Zhipp32d ago (Edited 32d ago )

I did accidentally beat someone to death a couple times. An unfortunate mistake but besides that I didn't have any problems with the controlls

jznrpg32d ago

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

Profchaos32d ago

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.
