Exactly what was needed, a port of San Andreas unto PS3 with better graphic, physics etc.

I hope the multiplayer is better done. I was kinda disappointed in GTA 4's mutliplayer mode, but had a bit of fun with San Andreas Mutliplayer on PC.

i have logged hundreds, if not thousands of hours on the various GTA games. I cannot wait for GTA5. GTA4 is one of the best games of all time (as was GTA3 and vice city).

we would have had the trailer earlier if Sandy had torn through the northeast.

I think SA was the best. Love the story line. Love the time setting.

Bit cheesy here and there, but overall, good.

And I LOVE RADIO X.

Depeche Mode
Living Colour
RATM
Jane's Addiction
STP
AiC
Soundgarden

Radio Los Santos was good.

and K-Rose.. I liked it

They have screenshots available of some of the locations and names. Too lazy to find though.

Similarities?

Grand Theft Auto V will star three protagonists. All male. Here they are.
This comes courtesy the December cover of Game Informer, which you can see in its entirety here:

This news confirms what Kotaku reported last year: both that it will be set in Los Santos, Rockstar's take on Los Angeles, and that it will have more than one playable lead character. Grand Theft Auto V is slated for Spring 2013 on PS3 and Xbox 360.

Scans from Gameinformer:
http://gamingeverything.com/32947/gta-v-scan-set/

C&VG detailing what inside:
http://www.computerandvideogames.co...sts-dynamic-missions-and-underwater-gameplay/

The details are included in the December issue of Game Informer, which carries an 18-page cover feature on the game.

Below is a list of all the new details revealed in the cover feature:

GTA V "evolves nearly every mechanic, features the biggest world in series history and introduces a new technology that radically changes the way players control the game.
Three main characters are called Michael, Trevor and Franklin
Michael is retired, early 40s, a highly successful former bank robber. Retired in luxury after making a deal with the FIB. He's in the witness protection program, he hates his wife who spends his m oney and hates him too, he doesn't understand his two teenage kids Tracy and Jimmy, he's forced back into the game as his money is about to run out
Trevor is a career criminal, early 40s, drug user governed by his desires, prone to violent outbursts and destructive rampages, a loose cannon, former military pilot, used to work a bank jobs with Michael back in the day, always up for a heist
Franklin, repo man, mid 20s, a young and ambitious hustler, works for an Armenian luxury car dealership that sells cars to those who can't afford them, when they can't pay up he plays repo man. He stumbles into Michael while looking for a hustle.
A quick menu can be called up to switch characters, the camera pulls away into a Google Earth-style vantage point and then drops into wherever the chosen character is
Trevor is described as having a "maniacal personality"
Trevor is in Blaine County, a barren, rundown desert region filled with bikers, meth heads and other people from the fringes of society
Characters can "flick off" people and people react differently depending on the area. In a rough-and-tumble
neighborhood the reaction will be different from someone in a posh boutique store

Rockstar's playtester pours a trail of gas away from a vehicle and drops a zippo lighter on it, the flame travels back and causes a huge explosion.
Franklin is seen on Vespucci Beach looking for a car he's to reposess
Waterfront activities include a muscle beach gym
He drops the top of the car once he gets in
Ammu-Nation is back
Each character has his own personality motivation and skillset
They go about their daily business when you're not in control, so you might find them in surprising situations when you take control of them again
Each character has a fleshed out story arc
Complicated, multitiered heist missions inspired by GTA IV's Three Leaf Clover are "peppered" into the game
Heists are a big theme
Rockstar is adressing mission diversity in pairing characters, it showed off a mission involving all three characters
The trio need to perform a snatch-and-grab to get the FIB off their bakcs
Trevor berates security agent guarding a chopper, Michael urges him to calm down but he keeps running his mouth, he only agreed to do the mission in exchange for help springing his friend Brad out of jail.
Franklin isn't to comfortable with Trevor
The three change outfits and rapell down the side of a skyscraper, when they arrive players take control of Michael rapelling down, the mechanic is reminiscent of Rainbow Six Vegas
The musical score seems to react to the action
They extract the target by holding him hostage with one arm while pointing a gun at interrogators with the other, at that point an icon appears giving the player the option to switch character
You can stay as Michael and try and pick of the enemies or select franklin, switch to his perspective and snipe them from afar.
Transition is smooth and camera angle helps you adjust
During the chase through Los Santos the player can switch to Trevor to pilot the getaway, snipe the other pilots as Franklin, or fire an assault rifle out the back of a chopper as Michael
Rockstar is leveraging cinematic tricks learned from Max Payne 3
Rockstar thinks GTA V is its strongest plotted game yet
Most of the gameplay mechanics have been built from the ground up
Cars hold better to the ground, Rockstar thought they were a bit "boat like" in GTA 4, it feels more like a racing game
Shooting has evolved "a long way" in terms of feel and mechanics
Melee is better, "it's never going to be as big a deal as shooting" but Rockstar "wants to make it feel really fun and strong"
Sam Houser and lead artis Aaron Garbut were both really interested in doing a proper LA, which R* felt it didn't do with San Andreas
The world is described as "the largest open-world playground in Rockstar history"
R* chose one large city over three small ones to create the best possible experience and realise its proper version of LA
World is bigger than RDR, San Andreas and GTA4 combined
The ocean floor is fully detailed and can be explored
Last week Rockstar announced that the GTA V release date will fall in spring 2013 on consoles. GTA V pre-orders kicked off earlier this week.

The studio will release the much-anticipated second GTA V trailer on November 14 - next Wednesday.

Did they switch it to the fall? I thought it was supposed to be this upcoming spring.

AFAIK, the game is still on for Spring 2013. Could always delay it, though I think Rockstar might be pretty confident about hitting that date.

As for PC, they're "...currently focused on the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game and don't have any details to share about a PC version at this time."

From what I've read, they've always released their big games in the spring (San Andreas might have been in the fall, I can't remember?).
