Honestly I stopped watching after the intro. Jesus Christ.

Going to eliminate every little chance there is of spoiling anything for me. Man, I can't wait.

Speculation they may not even allow the game in Australia due to the marijuana references (Franklin is seen coming out of a pot dispensary)

Hopefully Aussies are able to play this game

Ugh, hopefully it doesn't come to that. With that possibility and a couple of other games being banned recently, it makes you wonder why they brought in the R18+ rating at all.

games being banned is bullshit. hell i wish more games would push the envelope even further. i would like to see stuff that rivals what we get in movies. how is everything ok in a movie but the same shit in a video game is a major no no?

Because videogames train kids to be killers and mass murderers.

Just look at Duck Hunt.

It does seem to be the interactive aspect that somehow makes it less acceptable or more of a concern to media watchdogs.

that doesn't make sense if they do ban it, because that's something we actually have here in LA. banning a game for being "too real"? why don't we just ban the news from reporting anything violent or negative?

Makes sense. Was the Saint Row series also banned for hookering at gas station washroom?

At least you guys will be able to take advantage of Regeion-Free consoles.

It's still baseless reasoning and insulting, given the R18+ rating.

Cool.

Also, I was at JB Hi-Fi the other day and noticed that they were still taking pre-orders for GTA V with a midnight release event being advertised, so it seems unlikely that the game will be banned. The ACB has rejected Saints Row IV again, however.

Classification Board, but that does seem more appropriate. :lol:

how come i have heard nothing about the sound track for gta 5, have they gone away from the real music or something?

Re: GTA V

Wed Jul 31, 2013 11:39 am

It seems unlikely. They're probably just keeping it a surprise for the release, or it'll be one of the last things revealed.

Re: GTA V

Wed Jul 31, 2013 3:50 pm

I hope they will apply the custom sound feature in GTA IV pc version (Independence FM) to the consoles. That will be great :D

Went ahead and pre-ordered it from ozgameshop.com today.

NVIDIA has been spilling some beans lately. First they confirmed the existence of a Microsoft MSFT +0.52% Surface RT follow up, for which they’re handling processing duties (presumably a Tegra 4). Now, the company has given PC gamers a heaping helping of hope by flat-out stating that Rockstar Games’ Grand Theft Auto V will release for PC this fall.

The reveal occurred during an earnings call (transcribed by Seeking Alpha and spotted by Crave Online) hosted by Chris Evenden, NVIDIA’s Senior Director of Investor Relations. Evenden was outlining the changes in the PC market — changes which PC gamers are affecting — before he explained that the demographic is “preparing their systems for a strong roster of games coming this fall, including blockbuster franchises, such as Call of Duty: Ghosts, Grand Theft Auto V and Assassin’s Creed IV.”

You can rest assured that isn’t a random trio of titles. NVIDIA is working directly with Ubisoft developers to optimize Assassin’s Creed IV, and past Call of Duty partnerships exist between Activision and NVIDIA. Maybe we’ll see the game bundled with an existing GeForce GTX graphics card?

Perhaps NVIDIA even has a hard release date for GTA V under their hat, but the “fall” window is still reassuring. The PS3 and Xbox 360 versions land on September 17, meaning PC users may not have to wait long for what they know will be the superior version of the game.

Re: GTA V

Wed Aug 14, 2013 5:53 pm

Stands to reason, seeing as how I've pre-ordered the 360 version and all, though I'd probably need to invest in a few upgrades to run it well anyway.

Re: GTA V

Wed Aug 14, 2013 6:13 pm

gotta admit i will be pretty pissed if the pc version hits shortly after the ps3. if its a year later then thats fine as i will have long since put the game down and would be ready for another go of it

I am speechless :shock:

The Details - http://www.computerandvideogames.com/42 ... ter-gta-5/
He explained: "It'll be GTA Online; it's not part of GTA 5. Obviously it's set in the GTA 5 engine, but it's going to grow and evolve into its own thing." Access to GTA Online will come for free with every retail copy of GTA 5.

"Initially, you'll be able to create races and deathmatches, which are probably the simplest. And then, over time, when we feel comfortable that people are ready to get the new creators, they will be released. So it'll be a trickle, but it'll be a constant release of new creators and new content. We don't want to overdo it. It's a complex system.

That's another reason for the two week delay between single-player and Online.

GTA Online will be accessible through a fourth character on GTA 5's character Switch Wheel, which will become available after two weeks.

WOW! Good thing online gameplay is free for PS3. If this was next gen, I'd be forced to pay for PSN.

I haven't played games online for a long time. This might change everything.

Re: GTA V

Wow.

I'm not much of an online gamer, but I'll have to at least give that a shot sometime. Very impressive.
