Grand Theft Auto V is one of the best games of all time, let alone within the franchise. Its cutting satire and fantastic gameplay all lead the often crass game to heights that many other games cannot claim

Critic Reviews for Grand Theft Auto V
The next-gen version of Grand Theft Auto 5 is a new way to play one of the best games ever made, but the upgrades may not be worth it for everyone.
A sandbox of extraordinary scope created with a masterful attention to detail. A patchy campaign doesn't spoil this wonderful, evocative city.
Predictably, GTA 5 remains a masterpiece of a game. Surprisingly, the PC version is technically excellent.
This is how you do a next-gen remaster. Rockstar has pulled out all the stops to bring GTA V up to speed on PS4 and Xbox One. Beautiful, immersive, essential - it begs to be played all over again.
Playing the game again from the first-person perspective is a blast. It's also become my perspective of choice for Grand Theft Auto Online
GTA V remains a benchmark game, and its graphical improvements are hugely impressive, but it's the addition of a first-person mode that transforms it into a very different beast.
An improvement to the GTA formula set on the densest, most interesting, best-loooking piece of terrain Rockstar has ever crafted.
