I just finished GTAV the other day. I thought it was incredible how they pulled off what they did on such old hardware. It makes me excited for a PC release (as long as it's at least somewhat optimized), because the only graphical hitches I can see are the aliasing, and the LOD distance, which would be fixed on PC, along with a framerate boost.
One thing that really hit me the other day while I was flying over the countryside in a helicopter, was just how lovingly the world was crafted. From up in the air, I could tell that none of the countryside was a simply copy. By that I mean that everything was unique. The way the roads wound in and out of the mountains, and there were expensive houses placed along the roads, and as far as I could tell, none of them were the same design. And there was some farmlands and I think I saw a field of solar panels. There were no barren fields that stretched on for the entire draw distance (which I thought was really impressive for a current-gen console).
