Grand Theft Auto V Message Board older than one year ago

Alex and Krupa have both played GTA V, and do their very best to answer your questions.

Grand Theft Auto V's gang members are actually voiced by real gang members, producer Lazlow Jones has revealed during an interview with Chicago radio station WGN.

We still have two weeks left till the release of Grand Theft Auto V, and speculation on what the game's map will look like is still healthy. Based on the trailers and screenshots previously released by Rockstar, Sketchfab user cbush uploaded this 3D map, which looks, well, accurate enough.Read more...

Anticipation for Grand Theft Auto V is through the roof, and you can grab the game with a free $20 LIVE credit and free next day shipping direct from Microsoft. We posted this deal way back in March, and it's still the best deal on Rockstar's next game. Use code freeshipesc2012-over for next day shipping, but shipping is free either way.

Hey, if you want the gang members in your video game to talk like gang members, why not go to the source?Read more...

Ever since its debut in the third Grand Theft Auto, the Banshee has been an iconic part of each game's stable of vehicles. So, of course, it makes total sense for someone to go and recreate it in real life.Read more...

Alex and Daniel talk about their first hands-on experience with GTA V, discussing everything from the improvements made to combat and driving and mission variety.

The secrets of the latest GTA V trailer

Name That GTA V Trailer Track: If you said "Sleepwalking" by The Chain Gang of 1974, you're right! Now kick back in your deck chair, turn up the volume, and enjoy.Read more...

It's surreal to think that, in all the madness of the next-gen consoles coming out in a few months time, a new GTA game is under three weeks away. Here's the so-dubbed "The Official Trailer" for Grand Theft Auto 5, due on PS3 and Xbox 360 on September 17.

This is it, ladies and gentlemen. All those other Grand Theft Auto V trailers were merely warm-up acts, keeping the crowd entertained until this, the official trailer, was ready to take the stage. Read more...

Los Santos: a sprawling, sun-soaked metropolis full of self-help gurus, starlets, and fading celebrities. Once the envy of the Western world, now struggling to stay afloat in an era of economic uncertainty and cheap reality TV.

Amidst the turmoil, three very different criminals plot their own chances of survival and success. Franklin, a street hustler looking for real opportunities and serious money; Michael, a professional ex-con whose retirement is a lot less rosy than he hoped it would be; and Trevor, a violent maniac driven by the chance for a cheap high and the next big score. Running out of options, the crew risks everything in a series of daring and dangerous heists that could set them up for life.

Grand Theft Auto V launches September 17th.

The official, and most likely final, trailer has arrived for Grand Theft Auto V. Check it out.

Rolling Stone has published an extensive look at the soundtrack for Grand Theft Auto 5, with streaming samples of a few Los Santos stations available right now. Ivan Pavlovich, soundtrack supervisor, says it's the biggest soundtrack Rockstar has ever done, around "20 movies worth of score."

"We approached the radio stations as the musical soundscape [you experience] as you fly into L.A. One of the things we've never done in a GTA game before is a pop station; exploring that made so much sense in the context of L.A." Some stations have big-name talent attached too: DJ Pooh hosts a rap station; Wavves' Stephen Pope and Nate Williams host a rock station; Pam Grier hosts a soul station.

Grand Theft Auto 5's soundtrack is also unique in that it's the first game in the series to have its own score created by Rockstar. Many composers have created music specifically for Grand Theft Auto 5, including electronic band Tangerine Dream, Aussie metal band Alchemist and rapper Oh No. Woody Jackson, who worked on Red Dead Redemption and LA Noire, is the final piece of this composer ensemble.

Long have the Grand Theft Auto games existed in their own musical stratosphere, so far beyond other games' soundtracks that a comparison seems almost unfair. It's no surprise to hear that GTA V will have a phenomenal soundtrack, given the tracklist info that's already leaked. But now that Rockstar has begun to announce official info, it's somehow sounding even better.Read more...

Pre-ordering Rockstar's latest sandbox crime game, Grand Theft Auto 5 ,on Xbox 360 through the Microsoft Store will nab you some Xbox Live Marketplace credit: 1,600 MS Points worth, or $20 in real-world money.

Grand Theft Auto 5 is set to launch on Xbox 360 and PS3 on September 17. Rockstar parent company Take-Two expects the game will generate $600 million in revenue - and maybe you'll spend that bonus $20 on the inevitable DLC.

Today, Sony stirred up some speculation by tweeting about GTA V coming to PlayStation 4. But Rockstar Games tells us that was just a typo.Read more...

Steer clear if you're concerned about mild spoilers but, between the chaos of Gamescom, the US Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) has published a breakdown of the mature content featured in Grand Theft Auto V.

Grand Theft Auto 5 is available for pre-order on PSN now. The "Day 1 Digital Version" will be available for players to download the day the game launches, September 17.

By pre-ordering GTA 5 on PSN, players also receive 75 percent off any full Rockstar game, such as Red Dead Redemption or Grand Theft Auto 4. We in the business call that a "really good deal."

Starting today, you can pre-order the Day 1 Digital version of Grand Theft Auto V on PlayStation Network. All Day 1 Digital pre-orders get access to fly the Atomic Blimp in-game vehicle just like those who pre-order a physical Standard Edition copy.

As an added bonus, Day 1 Digital pre-orders will also receive an exclusive PS3 theme along with 75% off on any Rockstar Games title on PSN* (to help tide you over these last few weeks before GTAV hits on September 17th). You can pre-order the Day 1 Digital version by going to the New on PS3: PSN Pre-Orders section of the PlayStation Store.

Grand Theft Auto 5's achievements have been listed on Xbox 360 Achievements, so if you're a completionist who's ready to start planning your takeover of Los Santos, take a gander. Keep in mind 17 of the 38 non-secret achievements listed are tied to GTA Online - if you're looking to earn 100 percent completion, you're going to need to get social. For those going lone wolf, the single-player list is free of story spoilers.

Some noteworthy achievements include From Beyond the Stars, which will have players collect and return spaceship parts, and Out of Your Depth, which only contains the description "You're gonna need a bigger boat ...." But lest you think GTA5 is all high-flying adventure and drug-running, there's also the Trading Pure Alpha achievement, which will require that you make a profit on your investments by playing the in-game stock market.

Well, at least we're not being hounded to go bowling.
