To help put that figure into another perspective, after just one day on shelves, the money that Grand Theft Auto V has generated would put it as the 40th highest grossing movie release ever, making more money than Inception and Spider-Man in their entire worldwide runs in cinemas. Of course, the price of a game is more expensive than a movie ticket, and there is some room for inflation differences, but that it serves as a stark comparison especially when you consider the time frames being compa
Regarding romance in GTA V , Dan Houser (Vice President, Rockstar Games) said that he didn’t think it would work for the story Rockstar is trying to tell and the characters that feature in that narrative. Although, romance will not play a role in GTA V , Rockstar mentioned that each of the three protagonists will have their own set of friends that players will be able to get to know during their time in Los Santos.
All three of GTA V’s protagonists will also be able engage in several side activities. However, Rockstar wanted to give Michael, Trevor and Franklin certain unique hobbies, exclusive to them. What those specific hobbies are remains a mystery but Rockstar did mention that activities such as yoga, Jet Skiing, tennis, triathlons, base-jumping and golf will feature in the game. Rockstar also said that the core gameplay mechanics found in GTA V , such as driving, shooting and melee combat have largely been rebuilt from the ground up.
According to Rockstar Games (the publisher and developer of the Grand Theft Auto franchise), the size of Grand Theft Auto V ‘s map is bigger than Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas , Grand Theft Auto IV and Red Dead Redemption ‘s maps combined. But the picturesque Los Santos setting isn’t all palm trees, mountains and the occasional flurry of snow ; GTA V is filled with a wealth of things to
Michael is a former bank robber who is retired. Now in his early 40s, Michael is currently in the witness protection program thanks to a deal with the FIB. He owns an expensive property complete with a private tennis court and pool but shares the house with a wife who seems to do nothing but fritter his money away; his plummeting bank balance is a major influence in his decision to return to a life of crime. He also has two teenage children named Tracy and Jimmy.
Along with a stock market where players can go from rags to riches, Strangers and Freaks side missions, and the general multiplayer gameplay of GTA Online , players have rarely been stuck with nothing to do. Yet with so many GTA V players having completed the game’s story mode, fans are still asking if Rockstar will add more single player content into the g
The video game industry has been embroiled in this sort of controversy for the past few weeks leading up to the news about The Interview. In two separate events, the gaming community (and even some outside the gaming community) have shown a willingness to accept and often times support acts comparable to Sony’s just as often as it condemns them. The first happened when Target and Kmart stores in Australia decided they would not carry Grand Theft Auto V due to its depictions of violence against women . Then days ago, Hatred, the game that may yet actually morph into a scolding-hot button, was pulled from Steam Greenlight .
Next up, the actors were asked about the nature of their relationship with the group of workers. It seems that Fonteno thinks highly of his fellow colleagues, as he warmly said that Luke is like “a brother from another mother” and Ogg is the “father he never had,” although initially it was weird at first, sources for him, because they both had “different colored sk
Grand Theft Auto V was always destined to make a ton of cash being one of, if not the biggest franchise in all of gaming. It was certainly going to need to after becoming the most expensive video game ever produced. Bloomberg had predicted that the franchise would make a billion within its first month, which seems to be a somewhat misjudged prediction now. Mostly because, after becoming one of the highest rated games of all-time , it should reach the billion mark point in just its first two d
The DLC timeline of GTA IV also suggests that GTA V could be in line for some story DLC of its own soon. GTA IV ‘s The Ballad of Gay Tony and Lost and Damned DLC packs were released less than a year and a half after the release of the core game – so if Rockstar is employing a similar release strategy, we’d better get our wallets re
With all that ground to cover, you’d expect GTA V to feature plenty of vehicles to take advantage of – and it does. In fact, GTA V will offer more ways to travel than ever before, including BMX bikes, mountain bikes, road bikes, dirt bikes, a large selection of cars and trucks, helicopters, planes, ATVs and Jet Skis.
Previously known as the Spike Video Game Awards (VGAs), the show has had a lick of paint over the last year being re-branded as VGX . While it put bigger focus on reveals such as a new generation remaster of Tomb Raider and Telltale Games taking on both Game of Thrones and Borderland s episodic series, the entire affair was still framed by awa
