GTA4 was a downgrade from San Andreas. Hopefully this 5th installment won't go the "realistic" route.
Who cares? Saints Row 3 is coming out next month and I don't think GTA5 will be able to beat it. SR2 certainly destroyed GTA4
Initial Thought: Oh... goodie yet another 'realistic gritty' GTA. I can barely wait

If this continues the GTA 4 route I will not go near this game with a barge pole.

Rockstar, c'mon. Red Dead 3, not Grand Theft Auto. Let that franchise simmer a bit more, the market is flooded with GTA-style shit right now.
Very funny me and my friend where just discussing how good amsterdam would be for a GTA city.
Durg Whores etc. I think it would be great.

Still feeling sore from GTA4 I can't say I'm excited for another beating, devs you better be on your hands and knees over at team Saints Row asking for the definition of fun.
Please bring back flying cars, pedestrians riot cheats and I'll be sold. The lack of cheats to just cause chaos once story was done was just disappointing. One of favorite things to do when done with story was to go on crazed rampages but just fighting cops would get boring.
Isn't Red Dead technically 'GTA style shit' though, but with cowboys?Pandabearparade said:
OT:
I enjoyed GTAIV, I'm hoping for IV's combat system and deep characters, Vice City's atmosphere and humour and San Andreas' scale and freedom(Planes and tanks dammit!).
I have high hopes for GTAV...
#1 - Let me turn the cell phone off, or better yet - let me throw it down the street. The constant friend calls were really annoying IMO.
#2 - Bicycles. The bikes, esp the dirt bike are great fun, but I missed cycling and there's something quite cool about evading the cops on a BMX.
#3 - Character customisation.
#4 - Aircraft. Ok I might suck at flying, but the option would be nice, and would allow for some great stunts.
In fact, all I need from GTAV, is GTA:SA
- it just seemed like my ideal sandbox game from start to finish.

Dear Rockstar,
Either make this game fucking huge,
or just set it in london with the main character voiced by Jason Statham.
With Love, me.

It's a unique (ish) spin on the sandbox shooter genre that the market is cluttered with. Saint's Row, the Yakuza and Mafia games, among others are all sandbox games set in a modern city. The wild west is something different.ThisIsSnake said:
Not to mention that Red Dead Redemption was received far better than GTA4.
Gee! I wonder what ethnic minority we're going to get as an avatar this time!
Maybe an Eskimo! (political incorrectness intended)

Agree.AppleShrapnel said:Irrelevant. Saints Row: The Third is coming out in less than a month.
But yeah, looking forward to the 2nd now. :3
Plus I would be like a million times more excited if they made another Red Dead game instead. GTA has been meh after Vice City imo.
This isn't really anything new. We all knew it would be made at some point seeing as Rockstar promised that GTA V would feature a more gritty story than GTA IV. If they released a teaser or maybe even trailer I would be interested though. I didn't really like GTA IV so I don't have high expectations for this one. Especially with the promise they made about the story...
I've been reading through the comments within the thread and can't help but be angered by people saying that GTAIV was boring. Seems like The Escapist doesn't like innovation or change...Or a game that shows the sheer power of videogames.
Narratively, graphically and thematically incredible, GTAIV is a masterpiece, and I cannot comprehend how people hate it. "It's not like San Andreas" is not an argument. Judge it on it's own merits.
To say that GTAIV had was too serious is to completely miss the satire of the whole game. There are unlimited moments of hilarity within the game but the humour is more subtle and I find that funnier than the in-your-face laughfest of San Andreas.
I know it's all subjective...people's opinions etc...but I still cannot understand how people can ostracise a game as progressive as GTAIV.
OT: I'm not particularly excited by the announcement of a trailer, but I will definitely be buying GTAV.
