[little P]

If that's genuine I think I will have a crisis in the pant area...

Awesome!!!

With mods for the PC version this will be insanely good.

Thanks Shilka, had no idea about that, literally cannot wait now...

Just... wow. This is going to be good

 

[Shilka]

Here's a nice video showing off the graphical improvements, ps3 vs ps4 version;

Wow... the puddles and car interiors stood out in this video to me. Imagine what it's going to look like on PC... It's going to be hard to resist buying it on 18th for Xbox one... Must try and hold on until 27th January!

No problem buying it again, playing GTA in first person with these graphics is going to be absolutely incredible

 

[Kitlope]

Yep. Looking forward to it.

Official PS4/Xboxone launch trailer is here. Keep being impressed by the graphical imp;rovements...

That's it I give in I'm getting it for the Xbox One.

 

[Shilka]

Noooooo, or at least get it for pc too

 

[little P]

Oh I was getting it for PC regardless but I won't be able to wait until 27th January...

 

[JohnnyK]

p, I belueve you can transfer your mp char from the 360, but only once, so keep that in mind if you get it for the One and PC.

 

[little P]

Good shout JK. I knew you could transfer the character for GTA Online but didn't think about not being able to do it more than once.

That's ok, I'll start a new character for the PC.

I'm such a GTA nut I won't mind starting from scratch in January. Thanks though d00d.

 

[Shilka]

Little fun fact I saw stated by Rockstar today;

Records show 7 GTA Online players in the Vatican City State.

Who would have thought eh?

 

[Shilka]

Aaaaaand, it's about time we heard something about this...

The online heists are finally coming! They will be released November 18 on both xbox360/PS3 as well as on xboxone/PS4!

We know you’re all excited for more Updates to come and we’ve got some really exciting stuff in the works to continue adding to, expanding and evolving the world of Grand Theft Auto Online – including the highly anticipated launch of Online Heists which will be available for all four consoles as the first GTA Online Update to happen after the game launches on PS4 and Xbox One. We’ll have some details on that very soon as well.

About time too, been waiting way too long for this, though I wouldn't be surprised that the release of the heists and the next gen version were planned to coincide like this from the start...

Nice I kind of gave up on it, like you Shilka I was guessing they were going to be released with next gen versions and forgot about it.

Great to see them coming finally. I'll look forward to them with low expectations and hopefully be pleasantly surprised rather than high expectations and be disappointed. Seems to be the best way with videogame developers :icon_idea:

Tons of X1 screens.

 

[Shilka]

Man that looks neat. The whole first person view thing will make this a whole new experience, especially the driving will be awesome...

 

[little P]

*goes giddy with excitement*

Thanks JK they're awesome

What impresses me the most is the apparent lack of jaggies which blight most Xbox One games... I can't wait

 

[Shilka]

I just realized that, except for yoga and some cutscenes, you can do all 'activities' in first person. That might lead to some awkward views in this game...

Let me know how you experience the first person view P, though I'm already kind of convinced it will lead to the game feeling like a whole new experience...

 

[little P]

Will do mate, I'll be playing it in just over 2 hours... I've got a really busy day tomorrow so I'll only be playing for an hour or so (he says optimistically), but I'll be sure to report back once I've experienced it. I can't wait, proper kid on christmas eve feelings at the moment

Oh and lol at the .gif... $50 for her to clean your footwell AND you have to hold her hair to make sure it doesn't get dirty? Man... car cleaning is expensive in the states eh...

 

[little P]

Just a quick post to say that first person in GTA is AMAZING...

I didn't quite appreciate how much of a change it would be, but it is so immersive now. I even feel bad about murdering shop keepers for their till money when you see the looks on their faces as you point a shotgun at them and yell down the mic...

So much so I'm trying to go legit (!) in GTA online, and act as a sort of vigilante bounty hunter. I'm only making money hunting down bad guys that have a bounty on them, and repo jobs etc (they should have made their damn payments )
