Grand Theft Auto V - Trailer - 11/02/11 | Rockstar Games

[MTK]

trailer keeps crapping out on me, so where is the location?

[mooby]

Back to LA. From the sound of it, I think we're gonna get LA, San Fran, and Vegas in this one. R* confirmed it is set in San Andreas, which includes all 3 cities. I'm just curious to see how they're going to fit all of it in on one disc. But the trailer looks awesome. You get a voiceover from a protagonist (remains to be seen whether there is multiple), and then just a bunch of scenes. But the footage looks like it's from LA, and R* just confirmed it.

Looks awesome. Keep in mind LA Noire was on three discs, so no reason GTA has to be confined to one. Any release date? With the Skins' season headed down the tubes I'm gonna need something to do on Sundays.

You must be talking about 360, LA Noire was only on one disc for me on the PS3. And unfortunately no release date yet but I'm thinking April or May 2012, that's what the rumors are. On PS3 I think they'll do one disc and then make you d/l the rest, which would be fine by me.

The fact that they went ahead with it serves well for the possibility of MGS4 going on the 360 one day.

In other news though Uncharted 3 so far is an amazing game. If you own a PS3 give it a shot.

What if you thought 2 was basically the most overrated game of all time?

What if you played the first one but wasn't so overwhelmed by its' awesomeness that you decided to invest in the second or third? Then what?

MGS and Grand Turismo are the two reasons I held onto PS for a long time before I jumped to the evil empire of MS.

I actually felt MGS4 was a pretty big disappointment when you looked at it as a Metal Gear game. Don't get me wrong it was still a quality game but to me it wasn't nearly as good story wise as the previous entries in the series.

I feel that games like Uncharted, Heavy Rain, God of War, Infamous, as well as games like MLB the Show and Little Big Planet are better reasons to get a PS3 then MGS4.

Honestly the only exclusives that I've really enjoyed on 360 are Dead Rising 1 and Mass Effect 1. And I've gotten the opportunity to play and beat both. Plus Halo 3 was pretty fun before COD4 came out.

I'm thinking of canceling my MW3 pre-order. BF3 is just so good.

Uncharted 3 must have. To the 360 fanboys you owe to yourself to play this series
