Looks great, but for some reason I can't get excited about it...no idea why. Might avoid it in lieu of other games, or just other stuff.

Even though I have a ps3 I'll hold out for the PC version. I'll play saints row 4 instead.

Somehow I feel the same. Maybe because it's like most blockbuster games: just more of the same...

But I guess everybody could easily get lost in this giant rich world for a few hours, so maybe I'll get it once it's out on PC.

I'm looking forward to it, because I know how much I loved SA, I have high hopes for this. Anyway, I liked GTA4, so I can't really go wrong - anyone who can't find worthwhile fun in a GTA game is just plain miserable

I got a fever, and the only prescription, is more memes.

I am excited about it - mostly because they seem to have made it more possible to not be a rampant crazy person, and actually give abilities to go peaceful things - which i appreciate

sure, the focus should be on crazystuff, but it's still nice to have more.. freeroam - and other stuff to do.

Oh god, the horrible things I did in SA... I hope I have that freedom in GTA V too.

It has a super high level of detail to real life accuracy, yet still reminds me of the early versions. I wonder how it will look on my cheap PC if it comes out on PC?

I saw PS3 XBox on the advert.

The older I get...the less violent I am in games

What features are these by the way?

I meant the hunting (sure, that's violent.. but in a more peaceful way i would imagine x)), customizing cars, planes!, the sports part is quite interesting etc

Graphics look nice, but trailer was very boring. Didn't even finish watching it.

Yeah! Now that you mentioned it. Characters look more like rendered in some DAZ studios thing by an amateur rather than current-gen

Hm, well - i can't say it looks NEXT gen, but it does look current gen if you ask me - not to mention, there seem to be a LOT of stuff-emphasis, rather than "less stuff, more gpx!" this time around - they have - i think, focused more on content than graphics

but dont quote me on that later on when more is revealed!

That's because all the footage from the trailer is of the PS3 version. Rockstar confirmed this.

I guess they will first try to get as many sales as possible from the huge current-gen install base and release an updated next-gen version later on.

They probably had to cut back on character animation and polygon counts to squeeze it into a current gen console.

It would be fine - if they were making a PC version alongside it. Really I don't want to buy any more 360 games, but I know that'll be the popular format for it for a while - If I want GTA5 it has to be on my 360, which will no doubt RROD the minute I sign up for another years live. I could get it for PS3, but my PS3 is living in the cupboard under the stairs (GT4 driving rig) - not ideal as GTA has always been a social game, the sort of thing that is quite fun just to watch. Damn you Rockstar, isn't the fact that the PC version of GTA4 is the only format still being played enough of an indicator!

The thing I'm most looking forward to are the bikes - I want to take detours and explore, and the bike is the best vehicle for that, at least it was in SA. I like the sandbox elements they are bringing in, definitely seems that variety is the focus this time around - might even lead to some crazy DLC - The GTA4 DLC was brilliant, about as good as DLC gets - especially Lost and Damned IMO.

Same, except of course I've got a 360 and play Sleeping Dogs, but still, I'll wait for the PC version.

I've not found GTA interesting for quite a while, this looks like it might interest me.

Something that has puzzled me and... this is a really crap sentence, *ehem*... I don't know why publishers put so much emphasis on consoles when there has been one major advantage for them on PC for a while now: used PC games cannot be resold.

Well, considering the complaints they got when gta4 was released I don't know if they'll bother!

That said, I won't buy unless/until it comes out on PC. I don't plan on buying Xboxes or playstations when my PC outperforms them.

I bought a PS3 just for Catherine and The last of us.. and journey x) But then - all of those.... except for the last of us, are great games for console.

however, GTA 5 ... I would rip my eyes out and burn them rather than try to aim my gun in there... *shivers*
