One good thing about GTA.

[MineralMan]

Porn sites are getting less traffic. Beyond that, I can't think of anything.

1. GTA????

[MineralMan]

2. Grand Theft Auto...

Video Game.

[Niceguy1]

3. oh,

Ill wait for preowned copies to hit the stores.

[jakeXT]

4. I can't imagine playing it on a xbox and not with a keyboard

5. Hmm...I can't imagine playing it at all.

I have a book I haven't finished reading, and another one to read after that.

[jakeXT]

6. Conan did struggle with it, aren't kids these days listening

to audiobooks on their ipods?

[TheMightyFavog]

10. Ugh... Helicopter controls suck on the Xbox. I damn near rage quit the flight school.

However, piloting fixed wing aircraft is much less of a headache with a controller.

[Vashta Nerada]

7. Have you ever played the game?

If not, I don't think you should be voicing your negative opinion about the game.

[MineralMan]

8. Thanks for your generous advice.

9. The tight-assed, freak-out, geezer set has been looking forward to GTA V for almost as long

as the gamers. Sadly, I checked out the main story and I'm pretty disappointed. The game is beautiful, the play seems to be remarkably bug-free, and characters certainly have the potential to create another engaging story line, but the writing just isn't there.

[TheMightyFavog]

11. I love all the social satire...

Skewering everything from the Tea Party, to electronic cigarettes, to shows like X Factor and American Idol to Facebook.

[Egalitarian Thug]

14. Agreed. I was just hoping for more after the years of hype and astronomical budget.

I'm still of the opinion that GTA peaked with Vice City. That was some seriously great game production.

Then again, I'm not their prime demographic.

[tkmorris]

12. People who play GTA= People who habituate porn sites

Bravo. Really classy.

[zappaman]

13. +100 and...

[Warren DeMontague]

15. I've heard about this pornograsply thing, been meaning to try it.

What do you do, get some WD-40 and a socket wrench.... I got a ham radio in the garage, will that help?

[zappaman]

17. Ham radio only works if you spank it. n/t

[Warren DeMontague]

18. Otherwise known as a pig in a poke

pat pig! pat pig!

[Warren DeMontague]

19. I know. Who's got that many hands?

[madinmaryland]

16. Oh. I thought this was another Darrell Issa thread!

[adirondacker]

20. Rolling Stone sure liked it....

One of the biggest moments in gaming this year – the release of Grand Theft Auto V – is less than a day away. For those blinded by the hype and hyperbole, GTA V might seem like just another virtual mayhem simulator, but it could be a genre and medium-defining experience. Buckle up for 10 reasons why GTA V is the ultimate game changer.

Which System Is Better – Xbox One or Playstation 4?

1. This might be the best GTA soundtrack ever.
After a few tunes leaked, Rolling Stone sat down with Rockstar's soundtrack supervisor, Ivan Pavlovich, to learn more about the 240 licensed songs that make up GTA V's persistent playlist. Bootsy Collins, Kenny Loggins and Pam Grier serve as the DJs for three of the game's 15 radio stations, which cover a range from rock and pop to Mexican electronica (a real thing)."

$130 million to create, and the money has already been recouped...

I don't think anyone but the players are going to have an impact at this point.
