Grand Theft Auto V

A man has been stabbed and robbed of his copy of the game in London. Independent

Cue the concerned parents brigade saying it was all the games fault and it should be banned.

I popped home at lunch and there it was in the post box!

Installed the first disc, ready to go when I get back.

Okay, this game is pretty much the greatest thing since sliced bread, possibly even greater.

Was being chased by the police, found an opening by the motorway that led into a tunnel that turns out to be the sewers, I drive around down there for like 5 minutes and then I end up in the big aqueduct out in the sun. Just fucking awesome level design.

The whole world just feels so much more alive than it did in IV, and I haven't even gotten out into the countryside yet.

How big does the city feel?

Fairly big. Each area is much more distinct that they were in IV as well, not the same endless grid-patterned blocks of boring brown and grey buildings.

The LA River?

Does the pause menu take ages for everyone else?

Yeah, the one from all the movies etc.

Was awesome coming out of a tunnel on to that.

Only thing i'm not liking about it is the fact you have to visit the map bit by bit to unlock parts of it.

Countryside/woodlands is just plain ridiculous, had to fly a small plane over the landscape and it looked never ending.

I don't like the countryside, and Trevor is a dick I think, though I've only done a few missions with him.

I'm loving this, crusing down the LA river at sunset with Elton John on the radio, that's gangster.

I love the fog of war personally, i was worried the fact the whole maps free would suck but with the fog of war thing it means you know where you've been and where you haven't explored yet.

Was a little under whelmed into my first few hours but after fucking around with the assassination missions with Franklin I'm hooked

The way heist missions are set up is brilliant as well.

There was a mission I had to do that ended up with me being pursued by Helis and cars. Literally took me around twenty minutes to get away. Every time I thought I was getting away another car or the chopper would find me. Eventually got away by the skin of my teeth by quickly being able to hijack a car without being spotted, slowly drive away and watch the cops fly past.

Also I love how much the game rips into Call of Duty and Zuckerburg/Facebook
