In a way I was suprised, but then again...hey! it's GTA we are talking about here!
With a 10/10 on almost every single game review website, it's obvious that just like it's predecessor- Gta IV, GTA V will be nominated as the game of the year award, and MOST likely win the title.

I myself haven't gotten the chance to play Gta V, because it's not released for the pc. But I did stick to the news on the release day and weeks afterwards to see what this baby has to offer.
Like I predicted/speculated after viewing the trailer, it seems Gta V sticked to everything they promised.
Stocks, diving, parachuting, tunable cars, different planes just like in Gta san andreas, a lot of interaction between the main characters, different mission approaches...

Any negative points? Yep. There are. Hardware limitations. I was shocked when I heared that Gta V was not sceduled for the new consoles: Xbox One and PS4. This, of course had an effect on the game. Body building mechanics were left out, a constant 50 or 60 fps on a 1080p video format, more peds (and just more content into the world map)

Nevertheless, Gta V turned out to be an awesome video, it is only sad that it did not come with the new generation of gaming that could have made Gta V a milestone of the new gaming technology.
