About bloody time.

Depends if the game is different tech wise.

Previous generation, all the games looks roughly the same and played the same as well.

I wonder if the 5th game will be the different as GTA4.

Looking forward to it. I hope they keep the serious tones as GTA4 but have a ton more mission variety.

I'm really hoping they bring back a bigger world with highways and backcountries and such, wherever it's set.

Yeah, that would be pretty sweet as well.

youpi

so

what's up with the dollar font?

Speculation that it will use Washington as a backdrop for the fictitious city/area.

The character will be Obama

😆

GTA IV was mind numbing and boring. The graphics and controls were ace, but the overall game play and pacing were excruciating.

Give me GTA III and San Andreas, any day.

That speculation will turn out to be nothing more.

Washinton, DC would be too boring for a GTA game.

Probably.

That's why it's speculation.

I wouldn't say Washington would be boring. Maybe the developers are going a different route by having something to do with terrorists/political agenda. Or maybe, the influence of the game is Baltimore and The Wire.

GTAIV was an interesting game. It showed what an open world can do when it comes down to story telling and bringing a city to life. If they just had more missions that were not, "drive here, kill that guy and then get chased", I think a serious GTA game can be still good. Red Dead Redemption was a serious game and it worked.

The point is moot because rumour say LA with multiple different characters.

Here's hoping it's as customizable as GTA San Andreas.

Bring back the fun, stupidly obscure missions instead of the shitty cab driving type missions.

Yeah.... pretty much check out Saints Row Rockstar

Rumour it may be headed to L.A.

I really don't want GTA being more like Saints Row, personally.

But still it can do without it being so damn serious.

Previous GTA's before 4 had serious tones as well. It just had a few missions where it was batshit crazy.

After everything you were allowed to do in SA, GTAIV with all its tech and refined gameplay felt like a step back.

Crazy missions peppered in between all the seriousness will be appreciated.... and no more needy friends calling you every minute, not even your in-game gf called you as much 😐

that was annoying

Yeah, the friends aspect was a bit annoying. It was pretty damn cool at the start. It was nice to actually have some character development in a GTA game without it being a characterization of a stereotype but it got dry fairly quickly.

I still want a serious game that's based in reality. It was refreshing to have a city that came alive and felt real unlike Saints Row 2, which was just a backdrop. I don't know if you can have that with a non-reality based missions.

I don't want that. I want the same feeling as I got in GTA4.

Hope they fix up the driving aspect

if i want realism i'll go play Grand Turismo, Not that i actually play car racing games.
