    Mod Note: Most of the discussion about the game is taking place over on the GTA forum, so have a look over yonder for any specific queries! This thread will remain open for general chat about the game.

    I'm usually one to say meh to the GTA games but sweet jesus does this look good:

    That does look amazing. If you could do three player COOP, especially with the heist system, it would hella fun (never enough). Presumably there stance of "we have nothing to share about next gen console release" means that they will release it, but probably not until a few months after launch or they would have started pre orders already.

    We were just chatting about this in the office. There's 2 of us in at the moment, and both of us dislike GTA games, but both are quite excited by this

    Might have to sink for a month of Live on release. I don't do multiplayer but that bout of bordsie multiplayer the day after the release of GTAIV was an absolute blast and one of the best multiplayer experiences I've ever had :)

    Game environments reminded me a lot of Just Cause 2. The flying,bridges, desert and exotic landscapes. It does look amazing, has definitely upped my hype for it!

    Which version is likely to be best, 360 or PS3? Apparently the footage is PS3.

    Incredible. All is forgiven for the BOREDOM SIMULATOR that was GTA IV.

    There are some load of cynical dopes on Youtube giving it "The graphics look like GTA IV"

    People are actually begging for it to be released on a next-gen console and are refusing to buy it on PS3/360 because of this. What the hell like? Let us not forget that GTA IV's graphics are incredible! Why would it be a bad thing now?

    Because they've put in preorders for expensive new consoles when there's going to be nowt to play on them for at least 6months except Ryse and Killzone and FIFA with slightly more detail on the players' shirts. This is the best time for the current gen.

    Yeah I'm sure that boycott will work well just like the MW2 one :)

    Youtube comments wouldn't exactly be the best place to judge reactions to anything.

    Hopefully, I'd say it quite likely we'll see a next gen console/PC release at some point, but going on Rockstars prior form for the GTA series, we're unlikely to see anything this side of 2014 though. :(

    Just looking at it again and thinking that it must be running on PC before I remembered that there is no PC version yet. If that's running on the 360/PS3, it's a marvel.

    You know the entire game is based around heists, right?

    Looks incredible! I'm seriously thinking of cancelling my PS4 pre-order... Too many great games coming out on PS3 (eg. GTA V, FF X/X-2 HD, Tales Of Xillia 1 / 2, Gran Turismo 6, Dark Souls 2 etc.)!

    Ye it goes to show there is still plenty of life left in these current gen machines to keep people going into the next gen releases. I'm hoping titanfall works well on the 360

    EDIT: and back on topic GTA looks amazing, can't wait to get it. Has anyone seen any pre order benefits yet from GameStop or others?

    But the PS4 isn't backwards compatible.

    I'm glad they released gameplay of the character switching. It's the one thing I was most worried about...having 3 main characters instead of controlling 1. This looks seemless and fun.

    Threw it on (360) a few months ago and I have to say its not as amazing as I remembered. It hasn't aged in the same way as Oblivion (another game i thought was amazing on release) has, and its still a marvel for the hardware but there's no getting away from the shortcuts they had to make for the hardware. Battlefield 4 was where I really felt this generation was done, Far Cry 3 another recent example.

    The trailer does look great and it's not going to happen, but if i knew that a next gen version was coming out in a year I'd wait.
