Dont have it yet either, but I plan on getting it. I played it at a buddies house and loved it. I loved 4, and the freedom of the game is so badass. Whenever I have a bad day at work, I plug that game in and release my frustrations when Im not able to go shooting.

Last video game i played was resident evil 5. Then i had kids. Have not played since. Lol. Not enough spare time.

 

Baaa... Young kids go to sleep at like 8pm.. That leaves you a solid 2 hours a night to issue the FO the old lady and get your game on. ;)

 

Frankly, since you've been out of the "market" that long, I would recommend Dead Rising 2 or Red Read Redemption to you... Those are two the best games ever written as far as I'm concerned. If you're more of a "GTA" fan, then get Saints Row 3 (which beats the shit out of GTA 4... My jury is still out on it vs. GTA 5).

 

 

I don't have it yet but ill send you a friend request. I play Black ops 2 with some folks from here

 

Cool-cool! :) It's WELL worth what it costs. I've been an avid fan of the GTA series since 3 (including all of the off-shoots, and I even backed up to GTA 2 on the PS1) and I think this is a close second to San Andreas, which is far and away my favorite video game.

 

I play it on Xbox 360. Everyone keeps telling me I act like Trevor. I don't see the similarities...

 

Ditch that 360 copy and hook up a PS3 edition... ;) I own both consoles, but I seem to be in the minority because I greatly prefer the PS3 controller... If you insist on 360, maybe in a year when the prices drop on the game I'll get it for 360... I'm not planning on buying either nex-gen console anytime soon (lame launch games).

 

I just WISH I was more like Trevor! :) Damn, I love that guy... Frankly, I love all 3 of the main characters.

I'll say it, since everyone else seems to be afraid of it (not here per-say, just in general): GTA4 sucked giant monkey balls. I've beaten it 3 times... All 3 times I could understand a damn word of the foreign accented dialog and I also didn't care. They did nothing to compel me into giving a shit about the characters, removed functionality (vs. the incredible world of San Andreas), and just made it prettier... I like 5 WAY better... I like Saints Row 3 about 300% more than GTA4... It's way more cartoon-ish and over the top, which to me, in terms of a fantasy world, is all the better.

 

I fucking love it.  Ive been playing it for the last couple weeks, and im hooked.  Its less a video game and more a movie that you play.  

 

If you're on PSN, drop me a note!

 

I would agree entirely if it weren't for LA Noire and pretty much the entire Metal Gear Solid series... I think MGS3 has like 14 hours of cut scenes.. and they're all worth watching! :) In fact, MGS is what got me to buy a PS3 back in 2008 when they were BIG money (well.. to me).

Saint's row 4....

 

Rockstar takes themselves too seriously....

that being said, Red Dead has got to be in my alltime top 5....

 

Most of my RDR PSN friends (bunch of people I played loads of cards with when I was without a job... at one time I was around 130 in the world... last I looked I was near 400 :( ) went GTA5, so that was my first pick.

 

I badly want SR4!!! I can't agree enough about Rockstar. The SR series is what the GTA serious USED to be... Crazy off the wall shit, unrealistic physics and police, and just plain old FUN! If I want realism I can throw in any number of excellent driving simulators that I want. My "Top Speed" in my stats in GTA5 is 120mph.... My Escort will do 120mph and I have a Turbo "Viper" in that game... What the hell?

 

RDR is the best game ever produced. It's the first game that I felt compelled to do EVERYTHING in. Again, if you're on PSN, I'll come play with you any time I can. I LOVE RDR and was quite good at it a couple of years ago, 14 legitimately earned gold guns. Now I'm sure I'm quite a bit rusty... Last time I played I was getting schooled...

Sweet! I'll come check you out soon!

 

 

Dam I barely beat San Andreas for the first time in like 9 years. I'll get five later though as long as it doesn't suck any where near 4

 

Oh man... I've beaten San Andreas, no kidding, at least 10 times. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that game. Whenever I get sick and am home from work for a couple of days I fire up the humidifier, cough medicine, and the GTA SA. It doesn't take me more than 14 hours to beat it anymore (not 100%, just the main plot).

 

GTA5 is infinitely better than 4... Honestly, I was really let down by 4, especially with all the hype about it and buying a $600 system to play it on when I really didn't have $600. At least to me, I found 5 to be about 70% better. It's well worth the $60 if you already have a PS3/360.

Franklin is a cookie cutter video game black dude, micheal adds a bit more with all of his issues, but Trevor turns everything on its head.  Theres just something about an articulate maniac.

 

 When I flashed over to his character, he wakes up in a drunken stupor, on a beach, in his underwear, surrounded by dead bodies, then smashes his beer bottle off a rock and gets on with his day.  fuckin awesome

I've been wanting to get it, just haven't decided if it's worth getting on the PS3 with the 4 so close around the corner.

Though I won't be getting the 4 on launch anyway, I guess...

I'll look you up if I do decide to get it!  The online portion is really the only reason I want it.

 

Same with the COD games, I've owned everyone since 4 and never played anything other than online.

Ive just beat it. I got it on opening day. I love it. Trevors intro is the single best character intro of any game movie or novel I've ever played watched or read. Hands down the coolest. In my opinion vice city was the best gta. It was small and short but it was great. I mean in that game you could actually learn the city and where jumps and other stuff was. San andraes and gta4 were so big that I had to constantly use the map. I was a teenage pothead while playing vice city with no job and no worries so that could be why its my favorite. That game represents a time in my life that was great. No job no wife no kids and just hanging with friebds partying and playing games. Also vice city was the only gta I've gotten 100% done with. And realistically i will never have gta5 done 100%

 

I kind of hate when I game has so much to it that it seems like youll never do everything.

I agree! Trevor's intro is awesome!

I have to wait until GTA V is released on PC. unhappy.gif

 

PS3/360 is SO affordable though... Come next month they'll be giving them away! You won't regret either console if you choose to invest, though I prefer PS3.

 

I've been wanting to get it, just haven't decided if it's worth getting on the PS3 with the 4 so close around the corner.

 

Though I won't be getting the 4 on launch anyway, I guess...

 

I haven't read anything "official" that says GTA5 is coming to the next console generation... However, the games that are being release on both generations are supposed to have a discounted upgrade... Like $10 for the next gen version digitally (it's rumored that your original PS3/360 will have to be present in the drive of the X-Bone or PS4 for it to play though).

 

Anyhow, that all said, that game is fun as all hell and worth the $60.. I beat the plot a few days ago and am now kind of in limbo trying to figure out what to do next and knocking down other achievements.

 

Fallout is like goin' to work! (That's coming from a guy that platinumed skyrim)

 

You got a platinum trophy in Skyrim? How many hundreds of hours did that take? I bought the 360 Skyrim bundle last Thanksgiving, got to about 20%, and simply grew too bored with it to continue. I had to have played that game for at least 100-150 hours to get to 20%...

 

My hat is off to you.

 

I pretty much only play Fallout.

 

But, I may get this. When it hits $30.

 

You guys with the Red Dead. Im trying to wait until BF to buy it! Gamestop is gonna have the GOTY version for $15. But people keep telling me how awesome it is!

 

Dude!!!! RDR is the best game on this console generation, period. It is the FIRST game that I was ever compelled to do EVERYTHING in, including online play. I paid the full $60 for my copy plus another $20 for Undead Nightmare (oh so fun!!!)... You're way missing out!!! If it's another $10, then pay it! Seriously, it's my favorite game (well... it's a toss up between RDR and 1943).
