How To Install GTA V On Xbox 360 Without Hurting Performance
Today, Rockstar support advised Xbox 360 players not to install Grand Theft Auto V‘s second “play disc” to their hard drives. Doing so, they suggested, would affect performance. The 360 version of GTA V comes on two DVDs. One is an 8GB “install disc” that you must install, and a second one is a “play…

Speeding Coast To Coast Through GTA V Takes About Six Minutes
Grand Theft Auto V is very large. But after the game’s map leaked last week, I noticed some people speculating that, no, it’s not that big. How about if we hop in a car and drive from end to end? Up top, you can see a drive from the southern tip of the game’s massive…

Grand Theft Auto V: The Kotaku Review
Rockstar Games has scaled a mountain with Grand Theft Auto V, creating the best-looking, best-sounding and, most importantly, best-playing version of gaming’s most notorious franchise. Scaling one peak, however, reveals another—their cloud-piercing ambition to create a great ensemble video game drama, an epic of intersecting, interactive lives. Rockstar doesn’t summit that new peak as impressively…

Grand Theft Auto V’s iPhone App Is Like a Gangsta Nintendogs
It’s all the rage for AAA console games to have smartphone apps that hook into the main console game. So, yeah, GTA V has one, too. But, at least Rockstar Games isn’t taking theirs too seriously.

We Fell In And Out Of Love With Niko
I’d never played a Grand Theft Auto before. I mean, I understood the draw, but ever since I’d played Mafia, I felt no beckon to follow The Sopranos through an open-world Manhattan de-make. Wise guy this, blip-blap that. The whole rigamarole sounded like a chore, really. On top of that, my new girrrrrrrrlfriend and I…

11-Year-Old Kid Gets Grand Theft Auto V, Freaks The Hell Out
I have two immediate reactions to this video. 1) Really? REALLY? 2) What are these parents thinking? Apparently a store in France started surreptitiously selling copies of Rockstar’s highly-anticipated blockbuster a few days early. And apparently parents need to pay more attention to rating labels. Kids who can’t even look at Grand Theft Auto V‘s…

Grand Theft Auto V‘s Map Versus Major Cities
We already know GTA V‘s map is pretty massive. But the meaning of that kind of adjective can be pretty difficult to gauge based on how you actually judge size metrics. As always, be prepared for spoilers of the land variety. If you don’t feel like checking out Grand Theft Auto V‘s map before the…

Australian artist Patrick Brown updated his gallery with an intense Grand Theft Auto V piece to celebrate the impending release of the game. I love the tiny details such as the billboard with the fake company names, the Banshee next to Franklin, or the ad in the background with guys in Republican Space Ranger costumes.…

You Aren’t The Only One Taking A Day Off For Grand Theft Auto V
Here’s a rather frank but hilarious notice spotted by lukedoof in front of a small British games shop called Console Yourself. Why bother opening the store when they know their customers and staff alike will be busy playing Grand Theft Auto V the day after launch day? It’s good thinking, if you ask me. I…
