GTA V PS4 Review - A Worthy Second Buy - The Games Cabin

"GTA V released just over a year ago to rave reviews from critics. More importantly, players found the re-imagining of San Andreas the best yet with its wealth of single-player content and a healthy online offering.

A year on and Rockstar is set to release GTA V for the PS4 and Xbox One, with a PC release slated for early 2015. So the question is; is GTA V worth buying twice? Or is this just an unashamed blatant money-grabbing attempt by Rockstar?"

This game looks great can't wait to get it.

3-4-53486d ago (Edited 3486d ago )

Bought this on Xbox 360 last year and after playing it for 7-8 days I returned it.

I was expecting more, and the physics being less realistic than GTA 4's was a HUGE turn off for me.

I still played the story all the way through and tried out the multiplayer for a day or so.

* I'm definitely considering giving this game a 2nd shot though, as it's always nice to have a GTA game around when friends are over.

We aren't getting a new one for like 4-5 years at least so might as well try and enjoy this one.

The Graphics are definitely much improved.

I wonder if they made the driving physics more like GTA4?

FPS_D3TH3486d ago (Edited 3486d ago )

No. The physics in GTA 4 driving were abysmal and sluggish. I'll take midnight clubs addition to the series and gta5 driving physics any day of the week. Mind you I would love to see soft body physics in a GTA game.

spacedelete3486d ago

how can you not have fun in an open world game ? you make the fun not the game. i hope you enjoy it this time as theres barely any good games at the moment.

SilentSolid3486d ago (Edited 3486d ago )

The big turn of for me was the car physics and the horrible framerate. Just couldn't enjoy it. I really hoped they would try to improve on gta 4 more realistic car physics instead of going completely arcade. really disappointing.
Might buy the pc version next year tho. we'll see.

Chris5583486d ago

3-4-5 do you hate fun? gta 4 driving was sooo boring and the game meeeh

thekhurg3486d ago

To anyone that's played GTA 5 (preferably for a lot of hours).

How does the character swapping work? Personally, I don't like the idea and it's the main reason why I didn't get the game last gen when I had the chance. I like to play just one character in my games for the "immersive" aspect.

Can the game be completed from beginning to end with just one of the characters or are you forced to jump around?

Jaces3486d ago

@theKhurg

You have to switch between characters to progress through the story fully. Don't let that turn you off though, it adds a whole new depth to experience different missions and stories from different points of views.

That and it's always fun to see where the last character you played is at in the world and what they're doing. This is the best GTA since San Andreas imo.

mll093486d ago

@theKhurg

What Jaces said. Don't let it put you off, character switching adds to the experience. I was sceptical of it like you were and grew to love it. It'd be a shame if you missed out on GTA V for that sole reason.

Not gonna pay $70 for a game I already own, just with better graphics and a few more features.

ZombieKiller3486d ago

2 more days! Review or not, this game was awesome and I'm counting down the time till I get it! (see?)

Majin-vegeta3486d ago (Edited 3486d ago )

Meh

@Below wth has that got to do with this??Stay on topic will ya?

Sketchy_Galore3486d ago

Golden Axe 3 was a major disappointment.

DawginTow13486d ago

My dinner was only so-so :(

Conzul3486d ago

The stars aren't as twinkley as I remember....

PersonMan3486d ago

I disagree. Driveclub was amazing. I still play it almost every day. Even just doing random races is fun.

GTgamer3486d ago

Annnnnnnnnd lemme guess you never played DC cause its far from meh and how the hell did you bring DC into a GTAV article smfh.

kingPoS3485d ago

You must of not been playing it with a wheel. It's mad fun with one. It put nearly every button on my dfgt to use. I feel bad for you if you had to make due with a controller.

Last time I tired, I had to settle for automatic instead of manual, and I still didn't have enough buttons left over.

''Los Santos gets a fresh injection of life with draw-distances improved upon the already impressive ones on the PS3/Xbox 360 whilst the frame-rate is as steady as you could wish for. The original release saw more than a few stutters when the action got heavy, but the power under the hood of the PS4 ensures a stable and reliable experience, even if there are a few dips from time to time it’s almost negligible.''

Just what I wanted to hear;)

jspsc1233486d ago

what i want to know is first person hookers.

dillhole3486d ago (Edited 3486d ago )

In order of pleasure:

1. Sex
2. Remembering sex
3. Porn
4. Imagining sex
5. Hookers in GTA

jspsc1233485d ago

1 and 4 should be switched :)

Grand Theft Auto V was released over 9 years ago, but the player base is largely intact due to regular updates to the Online Multiplayer. The game had some technical issues at launch, most notably a CPU utilization issue, but most recent chips shouldn’t have any issues running it.

i think the only real loss is GTAV

OtterX10d ago

I think everyone and their sister owns the game by now. They likely want to squeeze the rest of the holdouts before GTAVI releases.

Profchaos9d ago

That game comes and goes from subscriptions so frequently I think it's expected now. Like rdr2 on gamepass Rockstar Games only last a max of 3 months On a service

MrBaskerville9d ago

Talos Principle is the real loss.

BanginTunes9d ago

Facts that game is good as fuck I'm playing through 2 now, very underrated

Huey_My_D_Long10d ago

indivisible was pretty neat. Cute artstyle, fun throwback to older RPGs, shame its leaving but it is on sale often

shinoff21839d ago

Definitely. I e joyed what I played of it. Still gotta grab the physical at some point

Petebloodyonion10d ago

I'm not surprised by GTA V removal, Rockstar never allows this game to stay long on a subscription service.
They usually allow 4 to 6 months.

lodossrage10d ago

Yeah, they do that routinely with both GTA and Red Dead.

But it's because they know they can still sell them so they take them off and on to these sub services in cycle.

The weird thing to me is why is anyone still buying those games at this point? You would think after 3 generations of being sold GTA 5 that everyone and their momma would have it by now

RNTody9d ago

I fail to see how the loss of an almost 11 year old game that released across 3 generations is in any way a problem.
