Why the fuck do you need big bucks anyway ? Is there actually any shit worth buying ?
There's lots of property yeah. Althought it's not as woven into the story as it was in vice city.Why the fuck do you need big bucks anyway ? Is there actually any shit worth buying ?
I can also somewhat agree with The Escapist's complaints about the main characters being unlikeable, Franklin's a blank slate character at best, Michael's attempts at being a dogged nice guy are kinda muted by the fact that he's a self-centred, lying prick most of the time, and Trevor's pretty much self-explanatory.

Plus I do enjoy holding up gas stations and shops for some reason.
Yeah. It's pretty fun when it's working. Just fucking around in free roam, holding up shops, doing races, being a general dick.I guess you didn't have any earlier saves to load up ? Say you're not sure, how would you know if a previous save was prior to the patch anyways ? Is there a way to check ?
Still waiting to fuck around online till I beat the game. Especially since what I was hearing how it was so unstable so far.
Have you played online at all Volrath ?
Guinness World Records can today confirm that the launch of Grand Theft Auto V has broken six new world records including the Highest revenue generated by an entertainment product in 24 hours and the Fastest entertainment property to gross $1 billion.
Released on 17 September 2013 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 consoles, the fifteenth title in the Grand Theft Auto series, GTA V, was the first main entry since Grand Theft Auto IV in 2008.
Developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games, the critically acclaimed open world action-adventure video game sold 11.21 million units in its first 24 hours, and generated revenue of $815.7 million (£511.8 million), going on to reach $1 billion (£624.45 million) in sales after just three days on September 20 2013.
The figure smashes records previously held by the Call of Duty videogame series and blockbuster movies including The Avengers and Avatar.
Guinness World Records Editor-in-Chief, Craig Glenday, said: "GTA totally deserves to be recognized as an icon of modern British culture, and we're thrilled to be able to feature the game in the record books. Gaming is no longer a niche hobby, as GTA 5 has proved, and how exciting that it's taken on the might of Hollywood and won! I'm also doubly proud as a Dundonian to welcome this home-grown series back into the Guinness World Records book.”
Full list of Grand Theft Auto V record-breaking achievements:
1. Best-selling action-adventure videogame in 24 hours
2. Best-selling videogame in 24 hours
3. Fastest entertainment property to gross $1 billion
4. Fastest videogame to gross $1 billion
5. Highest grossing videogame in 24 hours
6. Highest revenue generated by an entertainment product in 24 hours
7. Most viewed trailer for an action-adventure videogame
Huh, something just occurred to me. I wonder if they intentionally made control over the characters' movement sluggish so that online animations could be smoother and more latency-friendly.
Yea, certain games you really notice it. I tried playing Hot Shots Golf (older style golf game with the 3 click meter style) on several new LCDs (Samsung was one of them) and the input lag was so horrible it made the game virtually unplayable.Huh, something just occurred to me.

I feel that's the case in most games, but not just for lag due to online play, but also TV input lag. Many new games have so sluggish animation start-ups that you won't notice it, but if you play a snappy fighting game or something on a modern Samsung TV, even with game mode on, it's not a very good experience.
