Will anyone upload the Gaminformer digital edition, or at least pictures of it? It comes out in around 2 hours and 30 minutes. Hope someone uploads it ASAP.

PinkFunk4600d ago

Frig. I thought I was clicking on a link that took me to the main info.

I thought they published the digital version at 5pm GMT. Which would be round 20 minutes ago. Why ya saying 2 hours n 30 mins?

Will the madness NEVER END?!?

PinkFunk4600d ago (Edited 4600d ago )

Sigh nevermind, answered my own question by actually CAREFULLY reading the article. Just a bit over an hour... May God help us all.....

Edit: NOOO it's central time... i'm GMT that means 2 hours! Melting... I'm MELTING... *silent fading whimpers*

OCEANGROWNKUSH4600d ago

Its funny the main characters have been right under our noses the whole time... Guy on the left is in the screenshots riding a quad and a jet ski, guy in the middle is on the poster holding the rottweiler, and the guy on the right was in the original trailer. I also suspect the guys jumping out the back of the bug van are the main characters as well.

The Cars hold to the ground more and don't control like boats
Even rockstar admitted there mistakes my concerns are over gtav day 1 pstrey ftw this game will live inside my ps3 other games are likely to visit like god of war and last of us but GTA welcome home

showtimefolks4600d ago

so the rumors an EX RS employee spread and we all called him names are true, he did say more than one playable character among many other things

anyway just pre ordered it put $25 on it at gamestop so when the limited edition or collectors edition is announced i am planning to move that money to those editions

may get 2 limited editions one to play other just tp keep sealed for years lol. GTA is my 2nd Favorite series in gaming behind MGS so i am really exited as are the other 20 plus million gamers

here is hoping the game lives up to the hype and since its Rockstar:North it most likely will and 2nd hope is it has a awesome collectors edition

now if RS can just announce the GTA:HD collection that would be greatly appreciated

Multiple protagonists confirmed?

Razmossis4600d ago

please noooooo. immersion ruined if so

Jinkies4600d ago (Edited 4600d ago )

I know right, how can you invest in your character if they keep switching. Your obviously always going to have a one you hate and want rid of. Plus what happens when you buy something for your character, your going to have to buy it again for the other two

I think the main guy at the front in the main character and the other two are the ones who help him like big secondary characters. I mean look at Uncharted for example, Elena and Sully are main characters but they're not playable are they.

IronFistChinMi4600d ago

Why? My guess is it will be like having the three campaigns of GTAIV available from the start. As long as you can play them separately from start to finish and not have them overlap in one playthrough, it should be good.

Keep the length of each campaign the same as the GTAIV DLC ones and it won't drag like Niko's did too.

A2X_4600d ago

It's Rockstar. Have faith.

LOGICWINS4600d ago (Edited 4600d ago )

"Why? My guess is it will be like having the three campaigns of GTAIV available from the start. As long as you can play them separately from start to finish and not have them overlap in one playthrough, it should be good."

Well of course they will overlap. Clearly these guys I'll be working together...the question is to what degree.

Will they come together early in the game and work together for MOST of the game? Or will they each have their own separate campaigns and work together for the final heist/showdown?

IronFistChinMi4600d ago

@Logic What I meant is, that you're not forced to switch during one campaign like CoD. Just have it like GTAIV, where the campaigns were separate and you saw how they linked up that way.

LOGICWINS4600d ago (Edited 4600d ago )

^^I agree with you. It took me 12 hours each to beat Gay Tony and TLAD. I found them both to be highly satisfying experiences.

The stories didn't drag like Niko's 30-40 hour quest. Hopefully, GTAV is the same way.

@Razmossis

"The cover features GTA 5's three main characters, which the magazine says you'll get to use in "groundbreaking" new ways."

Three PLAYABLE MAIN PROTAGONISTS CONFIRMED

Razmossis4600d ago

Having 3 DLC sized games would be terrible. You can't have 3 beginnings, 3 middles and 3 ends in a game that has always been about advancing your character (or 'you') to bigger more badass things, getting more money, guns, girls, property... lung capacity! etc. You can't just drop all that and start working on another character (twice). That would probably also render the idea of fresh stories via DLC useless, as people will just see the whole game as a big DLC pack.

I do have faith in Rockstar, so I'm betting on 1 playable character, otherwise the 'journey' for your character will have no feel and no meaning.

At least we don't have to wait long to find out if I'll be eating my words

vickers5004600d ago

"It's Rockstar. Have faith."

After the disappointment that was Grand Theft Auto IV, I'm not going to be getting hyped up for this game. Though based on what Rockstar did with the AMAZING Red Dead Redemption, I am looking forward to seeing more on GTAV, but I'm not getting my hopes up for it just quite yet.

PinkFunk4600d ago

I hope they will be separate campaigns, in the sense that it doesn't switch back and forth in the middle of it. But I think it'd be very interesting if their paths crossed (which I'm sure they will)

Either way, we'll find out in about an hour how it'll all work. I hope it doesn't mean we have to sacrifice a level of immersion just to accommodate 3 different protagonists... I hope Rockstar knows what they're doing, and I have a hunch that they do!

jdaboss4600d ago (Edited 4600d ago )

you DO know there were multiple (exactly 3) protaganists in GTA4 right? stop freaking out like a lil BI. Rockstar has moved to letting everyone know whats in the DLC or upcoming DLC as the game is launched.

I'm excited to see how Rockstar I'll weave this story together. I love movies/games where completely different people come together and find common ground to reach a goal.

Luis Lopez/Gay Tony

Milk...get your milk...and so much more. Really when you release the same games in three editions over 15 years it's amazing how much money, and the amount of sales you earn. It's amazing how no one can compete.

Mr_cheese28d ago

To be fair, no many companies could release the same game over and over. They've earned that whether we agree or not

DarXyde27d ago

I mean Resident Evil 4 has had longer legs and still hasn't done anything like this.

Profchaos27d ago (Edited 27d ago )

GTA v isn't the only game that's released three consoles generations running but nothing has sold those numbers including GTA San Andreas which is now 4 console generations deep.

anast27d ago

Looks like a 2040 release for GTA6

gold_drake27d ago

thats insane right?
absolutely insane

rlow127d ago

No surprising considering that it’s been on every major platform and store.

I decided to look up the longest and most sold games list. To my surprise Tetris has takes the top spot.

I mean, considering the amount of time between the two. It better be a massive upgrade. Especially with the amount of money Rockstar raked in from GTA Online.

MDTunkown35d ago

Most of scenes are pre rendered

andy8535d ago

Literally none are. If you know anything about rockstar they don't do that. Confirmed by themselves that this is all in-game

MDTunkown35d ago

Is that why first gta5 trailer looked better than the final product? Or is that why same happened with rdr2 ?
Rockstar told 50% are cutscenes and rockstars always used better models during cutscenes than in game.
You legit seems to know rockstar very well.

andy8534d ago (Edited 34d ago )

It didn't though? And neither did RDR2. In fact it was actually the opposite. What's with the hate boner? If you don't like it just avoid the topic

InUrFoxHole34d ago

Why don't either of you provide proof. This is just a he said, she said argument at this point

generic-user-name35d ago

You're either lying or just don't know what pre rendered means. Pre rendered means that if you change the character's appearance (clothes, accessories etc) they wouldn't show up in the cutscenes because they were already made and aren't being rendered in real time. This is something that doesn't happen in Rockstar games.

"Is that why first gta5 trailer looked better than the final product? Or is that why same happened with rdr2 ?"

In fact some of the scenes in RDR2 looked better in the retail version than at launched.

anast34d ago

The OP is taking the shot-gun approach: say a bunch of random tripe and see if something sticks.

repsahj34d ago

Damn! GTAV graphics are still awesome! But, I am so excited to play GTA6!!!

‘GTA V Gets Pulled from PS Plus as PC Players Continue to Favor Legacy Over Enhanced’

That’s an awful clickbait title. The use of the word ‘as’ means the first statement is the result of the second, when in reality they’re not connected.

Profchaos47d ago

Also the same for red dead redemption 2 and GTA trilogy (albeit they split that into individual games)

Tacoboto47d ago

It just got put back on Game Pass recently too.

GTA V is the pass-around sub title, and it probably doesn't even matter because everyone owns a copy or even two by now.

FortWaba48d ago

Trash article and trash website.

Doesn't even mention WHEN it's leaving.

gold_drake47d ago (Edited 47d ago )

so i looked cause i was curious, its still avaliable to me.

the headline is misleading asf.

also, how did no one report this. the editing is horrendous. they'd have my arse for this ha

gamerz47d ago

Noticed my copy of gta5 on Steam was already upgraded without me doing anything. How can you still play the legacy version?

There should be a second listing right under it in your library.
