Review: Grand Theft Auto V PC

Harold Joseph, more commonly known as Stretch, gets out of prison in the early stages of GTA 5 collectibles V __ and gets back to work in the gang lifestyle with Lamar Davis and Franklin. Of course, we find out gradually over the course of a few missions, that Stretch changed sides in prison and was working for the Ballas the whole time. He almost gets Lamar killed later on in the game, when the three protagonists have to assault the sawmill to save him. If the player chooses not to have Franklin kill Michael or Trevor, and instead takes out their enemies, Stretch gets what he deserves. Betraying your gang and trying to get homies killed? That's sav

The most notable addition to current-gen GTAV is the all-new first-person mode. For the first time ever, players can now choose to experience a Grand Theft Auto from the eyes of the protagonist (or in this case protagonists). Instead of being a mere gimmick, Rockstar made multiple changes to accommodate the new perspective including a first person cover system, a new control scheme, a different targeting system and thousands of new animations. As it's hard to create a first-person experience that caters to everybody's preferences, multiple optional settings have been added including the ability to change control schemes, alter ragdoll perspectives and rolls and even turn off head bobbing. I wasn't a fan of how the game controlled in first-person by default, but was easily able to tweak it to a point where it felt like a standard FPS. Turning up the sensitivity and any auto-locking off is key to this. Commendably, Rockstar has even allowed the option to mix and match when first-person comes into play, permitting players to drive in first-person and shoot in first-person and vice versa. Allowing the former is a huge addition as it allows those who dislike first-person driving to still experience combat in first-person without having to continually swap modes or commit to one.

Located directly under the bridge, you will find an alien encased in the frozen river. You will need to be extra quick though, as checking out this easter egg will mean you fail the mission – but let's be honest, it's completely worth it. If you want to check out the alien up close, you will only have approximately five to six seconds to get a good look before the mission will fail– for longer viewing, simply stay closer to the road.


The Witcher 3 was one of the most impressive games at E3, and one of the sequels that offered the most improvement over its predecessors. For PC players who've been there since the original, CD Projekt Red is continuing to put consumers first, with free updates and DLC planned for at least the PC version of the threequel. CD Projekt head Marcin Iwinski tells R

The world of Grand Theft Auto V is so big that it requires three characters to explore it. While that line may sound ripped straight from a PR-laden interview, it’s quite accurate considering telling a story from the eyes of just one man would lead to new areas not being discovered for tens of hours into the game. The game stars three protagonists: Michael, Franklin and Trevor. After a prologue that sets the events of the game in motion, Franklin is the first playable character. Similar to CJ in San Andreas, Franklin is well-meaning gangster who lives with his aunt in the ghetto and is trying to make a better life for himself. Clearly more intelligent than his known associates, Franklin is confined to being a repo man for a shady car dealer who plays the race car to get customers into vehicles they can’t afford, only to have Franklin repo them weeks later thanks to ludicrous financing. After one of the customer’s father, Michael, gets a whiff of this little scam, he comes down to pay the dealer a little visit. Impressed by his attitude, Franklin decides to reach out to Michael to see if they could work together.

It's hard to believe there was a world without Grand Theft Auto V. Released in September 2013, GTAV broke practically every sales record and was lauded in almost every circle. While it debuted just months before the next generations of consoles, it didn't seem long in the tooth. Rockstar pushed the limits of nearly decade old hardware and delivered the largest entry in the series yet, both by size and sheer things to do. GTAV is a game where a hundred hours could easily be dropped into it without completing a single mission. Forever changing the landscape of video games, there's little doubt GTAV will go down as a classic. Rockstar, however, wants to preserve it in the best light so has decided to re-release the game on current-gen consoles in 1080p. Not content to release a simple port, though, Rockstar has changed the perspective we view the game -- literally.


At the Sega booth during E3 2013, we had a chance to get hands-on with Total War: ROME II . Just before the big event, the above cinematic teaser trailer was released focusing on the story of Cleopa

After Michael went into "retirement," Trevor relocated to Sandy Shores and decided to do what he does best -- be a redneck. He lives in a trailer, has terrible hygiene, is promiscuous with all the wrong people and associates with...let’s just say the "the wrong crowd." Even though he has delusions of grandeur thanks to his shell company "Trevor Phillips Industries," he’s a broke loser with little to show in life. After finding out that former accomplice Michael is alive and well under a different name, he decides to drive down to Los Santos to pay him a visit. Soon all three characters are thrust into the plans of a crooked FiB agent (guess what initialism that’s a play on) and some notorious gangsters in the city and have to work together to survive and bring in a handsome payday while they’re at it.
