Rockstar’s upcoming Grand Theft Auto 5 has had a lot of information released recently. You probably haven’t heard much about it; it’s not really a big deal. But whatever – why report on it objectively when you can just make snap judgements on a couple of brief preview paragraphs right? Right? Anyway, here are five reasons why GTA V looks like it might be worth swerving (before mounting the curb and running down pedestrians).
That's all I saw in the title
This guy is desperate, nobody click the article because this clown gets money from it.
This writer was craving hits.
#The writer was definitely craving hits. Take a look at this:

Same dude, same website, same points, this is ridiculous.
Yup, spot on. P!ssed at myself for giving him a hit now, I thought he might have some valid points but he's just complaining for the sake of complaining. He complains about the size, which in my mind is big plus, welcome back planes! He complains about the location, actually stating that setting it in Tokyo would have been a "great idea". He states that GTA is not about "stealing cars and stabbing hookers any more" and that it is now about watching someone doing yoga because R* are trying to hook in the casual crowd. And he gives out about the cell phone, which is a feature I thought really modernized the GTA franchise.
In short, this guy is a hit seeking idiot who doesn't seem to know much about GTA at all. He openly states that he never had any interest in the story of any GTA and states that he is only playing it to "steal cars and drive them straight into traffic lights". He even states that GTA III and GTA IV were set in New York when they are set in Liberty City.
So basically, this guy isn't a real fan of the series, but he sure does need some traffic on his site! Avoid.
This is my most anticipated game since MGS4, I'm on here every day scrounging for more GTAV news, but I still read these articles with a level head and a fair eye. You people will hear no wrong about this game, you remind me of the fucking audience on xfactor, one slightly negative remark, no matter how valid the point, and "BOOOOO" , "DIS AUTHOR WUNTS DA HITS HE KNO NUFFIN!".
It's so ignorant to think that there will be nothing wrong with this game, Rockstar are not immune to mistakes and GTAIV is the proof.
This three character system is a massive change for a GTA game, and is something people should rightly be skeptical about, I mean, it can either help the game, or hurt the game... but the 'say one bad word about it and we'll rip your head off' mentality here in the N4G comment section really prevents any kind of real debate.
I'd raise my hand..

This should be exploited. IMO. This dude is clearly just TOO COOL MAN, look at those fucking glasses, Srs business.
The part about scuba diving and making it seem like a bad thing was so obvious. The crazy part about this is that it works! Now the hottest article post for today on N4G.
Hopefully with this game offering up a lot more in the way of options the size will simply enable a level of freedom that I really appreciated in Red Dead Redemption. Such striking views sometimes had me riding slow just to soak up the atmosphere.
All about the money, not about the substance! :D
2. OP doesn't understand what awful stands for
3. OP thought saints row the 3rd was the best open world game ever
4. Op when wrote this article was high and wasted
5.OP Still haven't bought a next gen console so he still thinks ps2 and xbox games look better than games out now
My favourite open world game is probably GTA San Andreas, just ahead of Vice City due to it's sheer scale and variety. Vice City had a better story, main character and theme (I'm very much an 80's kid), but San Andreas was more out and out fun.
But after reading it all, I think the bloke is pretty serious. He seemed desperate for hits.
Size? So wait, you want a smaller game world? What the hell? A progressive storyline is suddenly a bad thing? The mini games are now a bad thing?
Someone tell this author to piss off and never play video games again. I don't want people like this ruining what was once my favorite hobby any longer.
So while I don't agree with his point in this case, having a massive game world is not the be all and end all.
Except having a small open world is going backwards in progression. Developers should be aiming to flesh out large worlds, not small ones.
-_-
That guy seriously doesn't like GTA overall otherwise those would be considered strengths bigger map is a bad thing? Somebody give this guy GTA in Nuketown map (COD).
Loser trying to get hits.
If the map is too big it runs the risk of feeling empty.
There's has never been a grand theft auto that was awful. Different yes.
Also you’re criticising parts of the game without knowing how they are going to be utilized.
GTA3: revenge
GTA Vice city: Revenge (kinda)
GTA Sanandreas: revenge
GTA4: revenge
I thought GTA San Andreas was the best story mainly because the game play around it was awesome. I think it is safe to assume that GTA5 is about revenge.
5 Reasons why I am stupid =p
If your pathetic projection of perceived ego (super-ego) could be converted into a liquid, you would probably drown in it.
Haha, this article is nonsense. Stop writing about games, and start writing about your collection of sunglasses.
I did see your "ironic" article about the 5 reasons why GTA V looks amazing. That actually makes the article referenced above even worse.
Congrats. You just sacrificed your journalistic integrity for a single, and a final, unique visitor.
But yeah, keeping hating on the 'popular' stuff. How dare other people like it when you don't! That makes you 'cool' and 'edgy'.
I had to stop reading at #2. Half an hour to get back down the mountain? For one, you are over exaggerating and second most players will either parachute off top or just jump off for the lols.
And i'm sure the deserts will have ATV's/dirt bikes riding around so you won't have walk for long to take some joyriders bike.
they took gta iv from this;

Video game "journalism" is almost non-existent. These writers have no critical thinking skills, abysmal rhetoric, and almost zero knowledge on how to write.
We can make our own judgements, dont need others to tell us how many things look good or bad about a game.
These articles are just a waste of internets
