Grand Theft Auto, officially abbreviated to GTA, is a video game series created by David Jones and Mike Dailly[2] then later by brothers Dan and Sam Houser, and game designer Zachary Clarke. It is primarily developed by Rockstar North (formerly DMA Design) and published by Rockstar Games. The name of the series is derived from grand theft auto, a term referring to motor vehicle theft. The series has won multiple awards, and is named as one of the most universally acclaimed gaming franchises, with Grand Theft Auto III and IV considered as two of the most revolutionary and critically acclaimed video games of all time.
The series is set in fictional locales heavily modelled on American cities, while an expansion for the original was based in London. Gameplay focuses on an open world where the player can choose missions to progress an overall story, as well as engaging in side activities, all consisting of action-adventure, driving, occasional role-playing, stealth, and racing elements. The subject of the games is usually a comedic satire of American culture, but the series has gained controversy for its adult nature and violent themes. The series focuses around many different protagonists who attempt to rise through the ranks of the criminal underworld, although their motives for doing so vary in each game. The antagonists are commonly characters who have betrayed the protagonist or his organisation, or characters who have the most impact impeding the protagonist's progress.

If you would like to add more about the series or give your opinion on them, go ahead.
And yes, I saw the GTA thread, but to me(or most of us) it was really just pointless.

bumping my own GTA thread because of the fact I see lack of descriptions.

8 Name: Hibari? : 2013-07-30 23:38 ID:RQ85SJtf [Del]

Bump cuz GTA V is the last contender for this gen game of the year.

9 Name: Steve : 2013-07-31 00:07 ID:wKZmuuPI [Del]

GTA 5 will have 3 characters in one game, which means 3x the fun. Though I think having three characters will somehow make the game shorter.

10 Name: Hibari? : 2013-07-31 10:14 ID:ss7biicd [Del]

I wonder if there will be any mention of CJ from GTA San Andreas

11 Name: Solace !o0GOqY0U0w : 2013-07-31 10:27 ID:8HfUUNLc [Del]

That's actually pretty likely seeing as one of the members (the black one) is actually in Grove Street Gang. If it's after CJ's era then they will probably have some references to him rebuilding it then. And it would be pretty much impossible for Rockstar not to chuck in some SA throwbacks, maybe references to some of the characters like OG Loc.

I love GTA and I want this game, but sadly, I don't have it so in order to cheer myself up I've been watching UberHaxorNova on Youtube play it. He's hilarious! :D ..Wonder if PewDiePie's going to play it as well. That would be kinda cool, I guess.

GTA V in a nutshell:

Same as GTA IV but with shit GTA VI should have had, better graphics, and shit they stole from Saints Row. Oh, and it's super overrated and essentially the same as every other GTA game (excluding I and II) with a few more things to do and dogs humping around the city.

23 Name: Sixclaw Sixto !4CNblaw9mI!!XI8GEi6V : 2013-09-20 21:58 ID:ARwwZyrs [Del]

I've made it my priority to get to the airport in GTA 5.

Screw everything else, I WILL get to that airport and fly a plane! Then crash into the ocean!

24 Name: the dollar : 2013-09-24 17:54 ID:f7rt6gda [Del]

day/dia have you actually played it and if you have there is a large improvement in graphics for one you have multiple characters who live there lives if you play with the other dogs humping isnt the only thing and Saints Row SUCKS BALLS that game is complete shit and sucks and will never be better than gta5

25 Name: Hatash!HATStoI1IE : 2013-09-24 18:48 ID:IUzDiHVo [Del]

>>24 Newbie, shush. His opinion, no need to show your butthurt.

26 Name: Day/Dia : 2013-09-25 09:31 ID:eFL2NEwo [Del]

>>24 Do you even gramatically write, bro? But srsly, that was a shit train of a post. It was like reading a Pewdiepie bro's comment on a video.

Let's break down my response, though, to help you understand it.
1) As biased or whatever this may sound, no, I have not, but I played GTA III, San Andreas, Vice City, IV, and a few others (includibng I and II), and let me tell you, aside from I and II, they are essentially all the same in gameplay with a few different things. That seems like a vast overstatement, but I think it to be true, and I think others would back me up on this in a logical sense.
2) Better graphics =/= better game. Just because a pile of shit (not saying GTA V is shit) is in high-definition, it doesn't mean that it's not a pile of shit; it just looks like a better, more presentable pile of shit, but it's shit none the less.
3) Multiple characters living their lives? Persona 3, Persona 4, Lost Odyssey... there are a lot of other games that get you involved with the lives of others in a much more deep and meaningful way. Hell, the Paper Mario series (excluding Sticker Star) has more deep and interesting characters, and those guys are limited to briefs descriptions and a few lines of dialouge if you have them selected during key events in which they interact and speak in place of Mario.
4) I don't like Saints Row, but it's not not fun. It's not shit. Saints Row beats GTA V in certain aspects, like a more sense of freedom and do whatever the fuck you want and cause mayham in SR, while GTA V beats SR in certain aspects as well, such as not being super overpowered and getting bored quickly after your twentith air strike on innocent civilians.

tl;dr You're stupid and can't write, some parts of GTA are better than SR and vice-versa, graphics don't make good games, and other games have better storylines and characters. GTA is essentially the same as GTA V with a few different things.

Eh as far as I'm aware of it's actually changed a lot, mainly for immersion purposes, Day. For instance if you are being chased by the police and you damage your car, it'll begin to leak out gas that the police will begin to shoot at, causing a trail of fire chasing you until it gets into your gas tank and explodes.

Secondly the many ways of earning money, like getting stocks, or even murdering people. Now while in many aspects it's the same, there are also many aspects making it better than the other GTA games.

It's pretty good with immersion.
