As I am not a pro review writer, I just want to let you know what I think about the game.

Grand Theft Auto was announced in 25 October, 2011 and was shipped to public two years later, in 2013 for last gen consoles. After lots of drama and pain, it was eventually developed for PC at a later date, four years precisely, in 14 April, 2015.

Accordingly, PC version will provide you with high resolution graphics and detailed environment. You will have the option to mod the game, just like previous titles [new missions, vehicles skins, weapon skins], but that belongs with the modding community, so I’m going to leave it behind.

• First GTA game that lets you control several characters (3 as a whole) at the same time by interactive switching between them during gameplay – main story missions or not. + intuitive design for the switching character interface
• Biggest map in GTA universe + all the map is open from the beginning, no restricted area before playing character X, nor doing mission Y.
• Mission that involve one protagonist, two or all the main story characters together bringing chaos on the island of Los Santos
• Each protagonist has its own special ability, that you will discover during a little tutorial
• Beside main story, there are also another activity that you can perform such as tennis, golf, yoga, races with bikes, jet skiing, hunting and a few more
• You can now use your phone to take pictures, text friends and browse internet + afferent activities
• There is now an actual stock market that you can play and invest your money and at least in single player activities in the world will inflict in the evolution of the stock market
• There is wildlife in the world of Los Santos such as dogs, birds, cougars, fish
• Weather system is complex and together with the world of the game, creates a beautiful experience and immersion during missions or free roaming
• Customizable experience such as new clothes, haircuts and tattoos
• Cars are customizable both single player and multiplayer – armor, breaks, paint jobs, bumpers, chassis, engine, exhaust, hood, lights, spoilers, roof, skirts, suspension, transmission, you name it and you’ll most probably going to find it there.
• Big variety of weaponry can be bought and also customized at the Ammu-Nation store
• There’s a big variety of missions + a very big amount of events and interactions on the side of the game the will let you feel that the world of Lost Santos is pretty much alive
And now, from the multiplayer point of view:
• Multiplayer lobby on PC and current gen consoles [xbone and playstation] allows up to 30 players
• There’s a nice introduction to multiplayer after creating your personal character (creation and customization), that teaches you some of the basics of the game seen from multiplayer point of view
• Players can buy cars, bikes, tanks, planes, helicopters and so on and store them in specific places – cars for example in garage that players own by buying them or buying a house that has a garage.
• Different services that are available via phone, such as mechanic for example that can deliver a car from you garage anywhere on the map, near the road in a few seconds
• Different online game modes such as deathmatch, survival, capture, race, free roam and more
• Different jobs, that after you complete you get in game money and rank points that will help you increase your rank and build a budget so you can afford things. Also completing missions and going higher in the ranking system will unlock new missions, weapons, clothes, car upgrades and different vehicles that you’ll be able to purchase afterwards from stores in the game world, or via internet browser from your in-game phone or computer.
• Jobs can be accessed from your phone or from the menu, while you are in the lobby.
• There is the passive mode which you can activate if don’t want to be bothered by other players in the lobby while you are moving through the world
• You can heal, equip armor and other quick things from a little interaction menu while roaming or while in mission
• Pretty good variety of missions, jobs and activities as you can drive your cars, ride your bikes or ski dive, fly planes, jets and helicopters, dive in the ocean with the submarine

I know that not everybody likes this game and it can get bad with a lot of modding and people that will make your experience not so pleasant, but there always the option of moving to another lobby.
The part of the game that will make you like it/enjoy it less:
• People bagging modders for free money
• Modders bringing hell to the lobby by exploding/killing/ everybody
• Modders taking away all your weapons for the current lobby, as you’ll get them back when joining another game
• Lagging lobby or players
• Cheaters like in any other multiplayer game with a decent player base
• After you get rank 100+ you already did all the jobs/races/ almost everything at least twice
• Limited number of heists which had a very big potential when announced that will be available for multiplayer
• If you don’t have at least a friend to play the game, trying to play harder missions with random people can be frustrating
• General voip that will give you headache, but there’s always the option to turn it off

The good thing though, is that the games receives updates from Rockstar. You’ll see different activities added through the game, also alternative things that you’ll spend your money on if you want to own such as cars, yachts and different organizations.
Community support is there, people create races and jobs. Not all of them are great and all, but at least it can provide a little bit of variety.
The game is not the best game ever, but it’s not the worst either, far from it from my point of view and from the other big majority that is still playing the game even in this moment.

I know lots of other things could be fitted in, but feel free to try it - it is not that bad.. :D
