Grand Theft Auto V review

It’s hard to find many flaws in Grand Theft Auto V. For years, the Grand Theft Auto series has been associated with several things. Among these there have always been innovation, quality and controversy.

Rockstar Games took quite a bit of criticism over the course of the GTA series for the violent gameplay. But the developers were also hailed for the work they put into every entry of the beloved crime series. Grand Theft Auto V is another example of just how awesome games made by Rockstar can be. However, there are some problems that emerge in the transition to online multiplayer.

History

Grand Theft Auto IV has morphed into a dry race for multiple protagonists. (Two DLC add-ons were created to complete Niko Bellic’s story in Liberty City.) In GTA V, however, the base game is complete with three interesting and varied protagonists in a first series.

There’s a tired, tender ex-bank robber from a life of luxury. The protagonist # 2 is an ambitious young driver with his eyes on the good life. And the third “hero” is a disturbed man who apparently has no real direction in life other than open conflict. Together, these three characters present the player with multiple insights into the lives of very different people.

While a little more could have been done with this gameplay mechanic, it worked incredibly well for the first time in this game. Each character is worth investing in and enjoying it easily despite their character flaw lists.
