About Grand Theft Auto V

Grand Theft Auto V is a vast open world game set in Los Santos, a sprawling sun-soaked metropolis struggling to stay afloat in an era of economic uncertainty and cheap reality TV. The game blends storytelling and gameplay in new ways as players repeatedly jump in and out of the lives of the game’s three lead characters, playing all sides of the game’s interwoven story.

The community says

I replayed it last winter just to see if it held up, and honestly it held up better than I expected, the driving still feels good, the driving especially.

    Pareil de mon côté, la conduite tient encore la route aujourd'hui, mais je trouve que l'intelligence artificielle des piétons a mal vieilli, ça casse un peu l'immersion par moments.

    pues nada, gana igual.

    Three protagonists, one city, and somehow it still feels cohesive years later. I keep coming back for the heists more than the story missions.

    esos atracos que mencionas, para mí también fue lo que más disfruté, más incluso que la historia, no te pasó igual

    Franchement, vous jouiez ensemble longtemps comme ça sans vous presser, ou c'était juste ce jour-là ?

    Gamboa25

    las heists son lo que más recuerdo yo también, mi hermano y yo las repetíamos por gusto, sin ninguna prisa

    Well, it's ranked 181st and honestly that feels about right, not a disaster, not a triumph, just where it sits after all these duels and everyone moving on to other things.

    Comparado con lo que sale ahora en mundo abierto, sigue plantando cara, y eso que tiene ya sus años encima.

    Lo rejugué hace un par de veranos y la ciudad sigue viva, comparado con Vice City se nota el salto de AMBICIÓN entre las dos épocas.

    Je le montre à mes enfants version braquages, ça marche toujours aussi bien.

    Braquages ou pas, ça reste surtout un bon prétexte pour jouer ensemble.

    Replying to SilentDragon

    Pareil chez moi, les enfants adorent la version braquages, et ça pèse forcément dans les votes de la nouvelle génération.

  5. CoopRider14

    Comparé à GTA IV il a troqué la lourdeur réaliste contre du fun immédiat, c'est un choix qui plaît davantage aujourd'hui qu'à sa sortie.

    Et cette convalescence pour toi aussi, ça devait aider à s'y perdre autant.
