i'm just a sucker for landscape shots... the action shots are cool and all, but this one here tells me a whole lot about the game... i see a town way way off in the distance in the center (correct me if i am wrong), and i see nothing but wilderness stretching as far as the eye can see... los santos is behind this shot, you're looking at trevor territory here, where he hunts deer with his bare hands...

SITH THE LIGHTNING!!!!! Couldn't help myself

It's a troll. Michael refused to pay the troll toll. Now he can't get into Franklin's hole, and that's why he looks unhappy.

It's the town in this shot: The new screen is far off to the right, basically taken from the railroad bridge we have seen many times.

I think Los Santos is to the right.

I should make identical characters in New Vegas and Skyrim, just because both games have a Roman-inspired Legion for me to join. I have a High Elf assassin who's doing the Imperial thing. He's a highly trained assassin employed by the Thalmor to ensure that Imperials win the civil war and that both sides burn through their supplies and lose enough men to keep them weak. Because the Imperials aren't meant to know he's Thalmor (he is posing as an independent Altmer whose loyalties lie entirely with the Empire), his entire history is a secret, and only the high ranking Thalmor who sent him to Skyrim know who he is, so he still runs into problems with the Thalmor agents in Skyrim. I did some of the main story, because I had to take out the Dragon outside of Whiterun to progress with the civil war, but as far as his story goes, the Dragonborn thing never happened. My Wood Elf, whom I've mentioned several times, had retired to a cabin outside Riverwood after beating the main story. His beard had grown thick, his hair long, and he looked rather gruff. He set aside his handmade armor and dragonbone bow and arrows, and was living a simple life cutting wood and selling animal hides and meat, but was thrust back into action when two cultists working for the first Dragonborn attacked him. After finishing the Dragonborn DLC, he travels throughout Skyrim, completing every quest he finds, because Miraak's attack taught him that an adventurer's work is never truly done, and as long as there is strife in Skyrim, he will be there to fight it.

Then slipping on the slick boardwalk and falling on your ass.

I was surprised to see Trevor wearing a helmet, he seems more like a "safety last" kind of guy.

Yeah i was a little disappointed in hearing Hayter isn't Snake this time around. His voice has become as iconic as Snake himself. But i remember hearing that whilst recording for Old Snake in MGS4, Hayter said that was really hard on his voicebox, and he struggled to do old characters. Maybe that's the reason Kojima didn't approach him this time. About the new trailer: it's now clear that the trailer takes place directly after Peace Walker. The 'Militaires Sans Frontières' Mother Base Oil rigs are destroyed before the coma part of the trailer. Question i have though is: Is this the coma the part in the MGS database, where Big Boss was cloned (Les Enfants Terrible) because they feared his death? and so, Liquid, Solid and the mysterious Solidus were born? If they cloned him at the start of his coma, could 9 years of rapid growth genomes mean Solid Snake could still make an appearance in the game as a young man? Maybe Hayter is secretly still on-board voicing Solid Snake rather than Big Boss. In Kojima's crazy world, i would expect some madness like this. Just a theory. Also, Ground Zeros and Phantom Pain are one and the same game if i'm not mistaken. Why is everyone saying it's two games?

Noticed that too.. And maybe it's just me but it looks like trevors head and eyes are positioned to be looking in the side mirror (as if one were meant to be there) to look back at the police chasing him. Either way I could care less because I wouldn't even notice in game. No he's just contemplating how many people to kill after he buys milk from the 24/7 down the road.

Probably not. Winter wouldn't be noticeable in LS. Regarding Halloween, people probably wouldn't like it if you could retaliate against a child's prank with miniguns.

Believe it or not, I meant to write that. The way I (incorrectly) wrote it made me look really selfish and egotistical. I feel bad now. /fix'd

The old one was just too outdated to work in GTA 5. They could get away with it (just) in 2008 LC but 2013 LS is a stretch.

Hopefully that marketing campaign will rev up soon! I've been waiting for it for a while. i can't wait to see commercials for it on TV, because then i will know that the day i have been waiting 2 years for is almost here, the release date.

...and that's how you role play ...

Yeah this new cruiser is rather unique, I like it. Also I now know I will be spending lots of time setting trees on fire.

A plant? Nope. Massacre said it's a troll

MINIGUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Phantom Pain IS MGSV

Would be awesome if the did gta 5: San fierro and gta 5: las venturas like they did with gta 3, vice, and sa.. But this time if you bought on of the other two games, the map connected together ,..

As for the cargo plane, its closer to an Antonov 124 than a 747, the wings are over the fuselage instead of under on the 747. Glad to see the minigun and the weather. Not to get to accurate with the weather but hopefully the thunder matches the distance of the lightning. If it flashes far away, the sound is delayed, and if the flash is close the sound is instant. etc. I hope that if we can get our hands on a police helicopter, we can actually use those spot lights. As far as the sports car shot from the side, perhaps that is what it will look like when you are transitioning from one character to another, maybe its a sense of tunnel vision just before you take over

the pic of the helicopter with the spot light dose it look a little cartoon ish to you members or is it just the lighting on it.

You're head was broken a long time before these screens.... "Your" << Thank you grammar police. It's called your phone having auto spell check.... What exactly is Your less than?

The one between the plane and the train does look like the one on the upper screen tho. Yes, I didn't see that one.

i really hope we can use the spotlight on the heli that would be pretty cool, my favorite pic is the one with the lightning storm

Thank God, new screens! The ocean during the storm looks awesome!

The weather looks amazing. I never thought of it but we're actually gonna get a really rough sea during a storm

[January 30th, 2013, 10pm] Rockstar North Dev #1: Well, that's another late night wrapped up. I hate keeping the guys here so late, but it's been worth it - just two months until release! Rockstar North Dev #2: Yep, we're in the home stretch. Let's take another look at the checklist. [The two look over the checklist of features in the game] Dev #1: Got it, got it, got it... Dev #2: ... wait a minute. Dev #1: What? Dev #2: Here at the bottom of the page. It says "Page 1 of 2." Dev #1: [suddenly wearing reflective sunglasses and a state trooper hat] Mother of God. [The pair frantically rifles through several piles of paper of varying height looking for page 2. Desks and chairs are overturned, cubicles are dismantled, and computers are thrown through windows amidst the chaos] Dev #1: I found it! Dev #2: What's it say?! [Dev #1 looks at the paper, and finds only one item printed on it] Dev #1: [stunned] It says... it says... Dev #2: What? It says what? Dev #1: M-m-m... M-multiplayer. [Dev #2's jaw drops to the floor with a heavy thump] Dev #1: We forgot the multiplayer... [Dev #2 picks up his jaw] Dev #1: We forgot the fucking multiplayer! What the fuck are we going to do?! [Dev #2 forcefully slaps Dev #1] Dev #2: Pull yourself together man! Dev #1: What do we do?! [Dev #2 slaps Dev #1 again, for no apparent reason] Dev #2: Calm down. We can fix this. We can fix this... [The next morning] Dear all, Today, we have an official release date to share with you: Grand Theft Auto V will arrive in stores on September 17, 2013. We know this is about four months later than originally planned and we know that this short delay will come as a disappointment to many of you, but, trust us, it will be worth the extra time. GTAV is a massively ambitious and complex game and it simply needs a little more polish to be of the standard we and, more importantly, you require. To all Grand Theft Auto fans, please accept our apologies for the delay, and our promise that the entire team here is working very hard to make the game all it can be. We are doing all we can to help ensure it will meet if not exceed your expectations come September – we thank you for your support and patience. Yours, The GTA Team [Fin] ------------------------------------ Seriously though, you're reading too much into it. GTA V certainly has multiplayer, they've mentioned it a couple times. They wouldn't have bothered with crews if the feature were only going to be used for Max Payne 3. Rest assured, all is well.

Serj Tankian did that once

I like older and newer music. Older like Led Zepplin and AC/DC and Metallica and The Who and lots more! Newer like God Smack and Arron Lewis and Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan and Eminem and Lil Wayne and 2 Chainz Maryln Manson and Three Six Mafia and tons more music like old and new Rap, Rock, Metal, Country, Alterative Rock, Heavy Metal.

dup is the evil organisation in the new infamous game...

Only problem with 4K in gaming is that all textures have to be made at 4x bigger than current PC textures to look crisp, and that's a real killer on GPU's. Current gen consoles use maximum 1024x1024 textures. PC games use 2048x2048 and for 1080p some games even use 4096x4096... So that means 4k games would need at least 8192x8192 to be as sharp and crisp as 1080p textures. Then you have 8k in development too... 16384x16384 pixels... Now that's some extreme texture sizes... The PS4 GPU wouldn't be able to keep up with that unless they use some really revolutionary tessellation and LOD software... They could make smaller object parts with smaller textures, and overall the whole scene will be crisp. But this is still GPU heavy. Games can run at 4k already. But the textures aren't nearly as sharp as at 1080p. So this is where camera/film has taken another leap ahead of gaming again, because it's easy to create 4k film... They'll have to think of another way to make games look good until graphic cards are capable of reaching 4k properly. Kind of reminds me of the 8 bit days all over again!

lul, british people are funniE Missed a lot. Didnt find a place to watch the event again...not live. but like, not fucking lagging cause its live. that did me well enough Woo, ps4 embedding not working....

i need those... too often when gaming does my thumb start to slip off the control stick... hopefully those grooves help keep my thumb in there better...

I don't see how that star is relevant to the end user experience. Also, though I love the idea of streaming games.. I already stream movies and towards the end of every month... Buffering here we come as cox throttles down my connection... Bandwidth is expensive and I can see this taking up large chunks.... Unless streaming meant from the disk? Also on a watch dogs vs gta5 side note, I havnt seen anything from gta 5 that suggests it will be able to compete with watch dogs on a technical standpoint. I think gtas main strength will be it's culture, satire, and atmosphere... Not its graphics or gameplay... Also, I like how blizzard stated it was comming back to consoles by releasing a shitty port of a shitty game. Meh. Starcraft would have been more interesting.

Maybe it uses near field magnetic charging, that would be cool..

complete rubbish lol. that's the main reason i haven't bought vice city or san andreas on the psn. why should i when i already own them. consoles should be backwards compatible

I don't really have one, I'm not that into the music industry, I'm more of a movie soundtrack type of guy. Hans Zimmer and Steve Jablonsky ftw!

As I've said before, I hate the RDR ranking system. I like IV because everyone gets the same guns and it's a level playing field. Skill over XP crunching.
