Grand Theft Auto 5- Review

Grand Theft Auto V is an open world, action-adventure video game developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games.
Now, let me talk a little history. In 1997 the first Grand Theft Auto (1) was released. It wasn't so good of a game with a 6/10 rating. In 1999 GTA 2 followed with a 7/10 rating.
After the first two another generation came along bringing two brand new consoles, the Xbox and the Play Station 2, It might have been new consoles or just technology advancing that allowed GTA 3 release with a 9/10 rating, almost making it to game of the year.
In 2006 Rockstar realized GTA couldn't stop so Peter Moore fascinatingly "announced" GTA 4 with a tattoo on his left arm which reads "GTA IV". In 2008 Rockstar finally released the 2008 GAME OF THE YEAR, "GTA IV".
And now Rockstar came trough once again with cool graphics and super big Open World for GTA V.
As I mentioned before, GTA V has a wide open world that goes by the name of Los Santos.
Los Santos is overpopulated by 3 people, Michael, Trevor and Franklin. Michael is famous for being a former bank robber, Trevor instead is a trailer park criminal, Franklin is an ex-street gangster.
these three guys make the perfect trio.
GTA is known for its wide choice of cars, and in this GTA cars handle very smoothly and interact realistically with the world in different ways, for example the cars handle harder and when you hit a wall it might crack.
A wide open world can be very cool, but it can also cause delay in world loading so when you enter a fast car don't push it to max or it might look like you're flying in the air.
In many missions you'll need the help of a sniper or someone who can shoot out the police man who's holding his gun on your head, that's where the character switching mechanic comes in play, this allows you to switch between 3 characters not only during missions but also while you're wondering around Los Santos buying guns or... browse the Internet. Yes you heard, browse the internet, this feature allows you to visit cars websites buy a new house or simply looking up a location.

Grand Theft Auto V is a very funny third player action game which adds new features to the Grand Theft Auto series which you can find below. I think this game should be in the short list for Game of the Year so you all should play this game to death.

Verdict 

+ Wide Open world
+ Improved vehicle mechanics
+ Character switching mechanics
+ Internet

10.0
