Grand Theft Auto V Reviews
Grand Theft Auto V is The Sandbox, a magnum opus to which the adjectives fall short and which reaches the new generation with the necessary improvements to make the sandbox that Rockstar always wanted.

Into its 3rd generation and GTA V is still printing money for Rockstar. The new generation version is not as jaw-dropping as it was almost a decade ago, but it is the best way to play it if you are one of the very few who hasn't already; And even if you did, the current discounted price might tempt you to give it another try anyway.

Without any content additions for those who have already explored every alley in Los Santos, this version of GTA V may not be enough for veterans, but it remains a true masterpiece in the new generation. It also supports 60 fps or the ultra-high definition in 4k, making it the best possible way to enjoy this great criminal journey.

Rockstar releases GTA V for another generation of consoles. Now with small graphic upgrades and with 60 fps mode. But it's not enough for paying upgrade.

GTA V on Xbox Series X gives very little reason for Xbox One players to make the jump (pay-per-use). A version that could well have been free is left behind a payment barrier to justify technical improvements that they know little.

GTA 5 is back and although it is the "best release for consoles", it will rather interest a few. Have you played? You know exactly what to expect. Is it worth it for 60 frames and faster loading? It all depends on whether you've already played Grand Theft Auto 5.

If you've somehow held out on getting Grand Theft Auto V until now and don't play games on your PC, then the PS5 version is the one to get. The faster loading times and graphical bumps still make this a good-looking game, despite the age of the assets.
All in all Grand Theft Auto V is a natural evolution of the series, and it does indeed make it seem difficult to comprehend where exactly they can take it next. There's certainly a few areas that could do with some polish, but fans of open-worlds will find one of the most accomplished games in years, and, despite hours and hours spent prodding around, I think there's some many secrets still for me to find. One thing's for sure and it's got my appetite whetted for the PC version, because once the modding community gets their hands on this it's going to be a joy to see.
This is the best looking, best performing GTA game to grace consoles, bar none.
Having played and reviewed the original release for PlayStation 3 when it launched I can say the PC version of Grand Theft Auto V is no mere port, and that Rockstar Games have learned a great deal from their troublesome GTA IV days when it landed on PC. You'd think GTA V had been purpose built for the PC, and that's because it has been – from the generous array of graphics options, to native keyboard and mouse support – Grand Theft Auto V isn't disguised as a PC game; it is a PC game.
This sharper Grand Theft Auto V doesn't carry any additional moniker – perhaps signifying the developer's confidence in believing that all versions of their game are the best. That simply isn't true here. These newer versions help realise Los Santos in a way that wasn't possible before, and reaffirms Rockstar's skill in producing authentic worlds, with a character all their own.
GTA V was a great game last year. Now it's more than just a great game, it's damn near perfect, and I don't say that about many games. The attention to detail Rockstar has put into this new version is above and beyond what we are used to getting and set a new bar for all other developers out there wanting to re-release a great title on next-gen platforms. If you've never played (hell even if you have) GTA V, now's the time to experience all the greatness Rockstar has put into this version. And if you happen to know someone who works for or with Rockstar's development team, tell them thank you for this and to get started on remaking Vice City for me!
It's a brilliant, entertaining adventure that is worth repeating over and over again, you'll never get tired of chasing the American Dream in Los Santos.
Rockstar has improved upon one of the greatest games of all time. The original version of Grand Theft Auto V was a major accomplishment upon its initial release and remains that way even after a year of the new console generation.
It's clear a lot of legwork went into this PC version, from the future-proofed resolution support to the custom-soundtrack support (yes!) to the smooth controls to the amount of tweakable settings to the fact that the game runs.
The game loads quicker, it transitions between characters faster, view distances are increased and everything is just better. GTA V on PC is an opera in its honour. It is a sonnet to PC gaming, doing what consoles did oh so long ago -- exploiting its strengths and avoiding its weaknesses.
At the end of the day, this is still Grand Theft Auto V, an entry that I find is the best in the series, and a game that has been made that little bit better with the performance boost and graphical enhancements.
If you have never played Rockstar's work this is the perfect time to make it your own and, in case you have already experienced old gen, different incentives to buy this version too, such as new missions, new cars, new filters and new events could be the stimulus you were waiting for to jump on this next generation open world.

Needless to say, the 2013 release of Rockstar North’s Grand Theft Auto V generated a great deal of excitement.
