GTA V s First-Person Mode Is Pointless

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


For a chance at being that one person, you will have to head over to the GameStop website and enter . It's set up in an old fashioned new-tractor-at-the-county-fair style lottery, only instead of dollars the currency used is "PowerUp Rewards Points." 1 entry costs 200 points, 7 entries costs 1,000 points and 15 entries costs 2,000 points. Sadly, if you don't have a GameStop account and have no points, you can only enter zero times. This is truly an exclusive that GameStop was lucky to sc


For example, CVG reports that the game smashed retail records in the UK, quickly becoming the biggest video game launch ever seen. The game sold 1.57 million units for a total of around $104 million in Britain, plowing through the previous record set by Call of Duty: Black Ops which sold around 1.41 million units on its launch day. To put that in perspective, the UK has a population of around 63 million, meaning that more then 1 in 60 people in the entire country own a copy. That is a lot after just one day on the mar


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


Grand Theft Auto V will continue to sell like hot cakes and it will be very interesting to see just how large the gross number becomes over the course of the next week, hopefully with a solid number on units sold surfacing. While it is utterly futile to compare a game and a movie, it would be fascinating to see just how it compared to some of the biggest ever movie releases, especially as the series won't be transitioning to the big screen its

The first-person mode includes a new cover system, a traditional FPS control scheme, along with auxiliary features like new animations. It aims (no pun intended) to deliver a new perspective on Grand Theft Auto, a series that until now has focused entirely on a third-person perspective. The trailer illustrates many highlights of Grand Theft Auto V like taking out street assailants, jumping a train on an off-road vehicle, and even shaking an enemy off the wing of a plane. The new perspective makes moments like piloting a jet fighter different, with aiming displays and cockpit views all in tow. It definitely adds another take on Grand Theft Auto V.


To reiterate, this car can be yours - but before you get all excited, you should be aware that the chance of it being yours is insanely slim, as this car is a one-of-a-kind. You can't buy it, you can't rent it, and you certainly can't steal a bumble-bee colored one for Gta5Play.Com Brucie Kibbutz. Only one person will ever have the privilege of driving around while perhaps listening to some of the tracks slated to be on Los Santos' radio stations in a Banshee they can actually call their own. (For what it's worth, I recommend listening to Eddie Murphy's "Party All The Time" from Los Santo's classic rock station to the future winn

Grand Theft Auto V set the world ablaze when it appeared, roaring onto the scene with the biggest open-world ever seen in the series. Rockstar soared back to the forefront of gaming, shouting from atop the skyscrapers and taking off into the stratosphere. In this current gaming climate of endless re-releases and remasters, it was only a matter of time that Rockstar would cave. Grand Theft Auto V was confirmed for release on Playstation 4 and Xbox One, with 1080p/30fps graphics and numerous tweaks to gameplay. But one new feature stood out: a first-person mode . For a series that’s always been a third-person endeavor, the FPS-style setup caught many gamers’ eyes, some even claiming it to make this GTA V "the definitive version." GTA V on PS4 and Xbox One is likely to be the definitive version of the game, but this first-person mode is a disposable and pointless inclusion, a shameless stand-in for true expansion on the already enormous open-world game.


On Steam, recent user reviews indicate an "overwhelmingly Negative" ranking for the game, as well as "mixed" reviews overall. Only 14 % of the 35,960 user reviews in the past 30 days have been posit
