They sure do pick some useless shit to give you for GTA collector's editions. A shitty New Era (THE worst hat makers in the business) cap and a fucking security deposit bag, really? And last game it was like a foot locker or something.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Kids these days love New Era.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

It was a safe deposit box, I still have mine (got the collector's edition on clearance for $30). I actually found use for it but it certainly was a weird add-on.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

I put my Key to the City prize in my lockbox. To this day it hasn't been stolen so I guess it works.

If you follow the preorder link on the page I linked,, and you go to the collector's edition, the only two options are Rockstar and Gamestop.

Then, if you go to gamestop:

GTA V Collector's Edition

They actually refer to it as a Gamestop exclusive.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Awesome. I love the humor in these games.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Looks good, but why is there a mouse cursor in a bunch of the clips?

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Holy fuck that looks like fun!

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

That looks great. hopefully the game controls Less like GTA4 and more like SRIII.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Looks good but sucks that it won't be a next gen game. Some of the graphics/animations in that trailer already show some age :(

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Love it - looks like a blast.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Fun > graphics

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Pretty sure I'm done with this franchise. I find that I'm overwhelmed by the montonony. I'm pretty sure I finished GTA IV and even played a bit online. It was impressive, but I'm not sure it was fun. And It was bad enough dating fetch quests...now I have whining kids?? Ugh. Oh, hold on, Roman's calling me to play fucking darts.

I've found that tighter open world games with more action are more appealing to me...games like Saints Row, Arkham City, Assassin's Creed and Infamous.

But it's nice to hear that they maybe fixed the shitty controls. :up:

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Amazing.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Just realized that we are just a shade over two months from the release of this. Can't wait!!!!

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Graphics look fine to me. Haven't been this excited for a GTA game since San Andreas. Maybe it's the California in me :lol:

Looks like there's a ton to do. I have to pre-order now.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

I still have my pre-order from many months ago with NewEgg for 48 bucks. I pre-ordered it when they had that unlimited use 20% off online coupon code.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

I realized I pre-ordered awhile ago, too. But I have to switch to the special edition.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Yeah, I canceled my $45 preorder with NewEgg. With all of the good things I've been hearing lately about Saints Row 2 & 3, I want to play those first. So I'll pick this up down the road once it hits $20 or so. I'm in no hurry and still have hopes that it lands on the One or PS4 sometime, maybe as a GOTY edition or something.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

Good call. SR3 was a blast, and I'm still running around naked and invincible mopping up tasks and side quests just because it's a fun world to run around in. Indications are that you should start with Saints Row 3 and then either go back to 2 as sort of a prequel or just move on to 4.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

There's some goofy stuff with Shaundi in the SR4 trailer that probably makes little to no sense if you haven't played SR2.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 to a V
 

While that trailer looks good, I hope they fix one of the big problems with the GTA4 missions. I didn't like how "on-rails" a lot of the missions felt.

I'll give an example. I remember in GTA:SA there was a mission where you had to kill a guy, as usual, but when you enter the building he runs out the back and tries to escape on a bike. If you destroyed the bike before the mission, he would try to escape on foot, making the mission obviously easier.

However in 4, if that mission were repeated, that bike is GOING to be there. And also, you are going to HAVE to chase that person, and stay alive, until they lose control and fly off a ramp and through a billboard where it changes to a cut scene and he pleads for his life while laying on the ground in a heap.

From watching the clips, it seems like they are going to continue with the "planned" missions where there is only an illusion of how you tackle the mission. I hope I'm wrong about that.

Also, I don't see how the controls look fixed. Is there better auto-aim? That looked like mouse aiming to me.
