Grand Theft Auto 5 Likes and Dislikes

Grand Theft Auto 5 drops you into the city of Los Santos and the San Andreas area.  Like all games there are features that make people like them, but also may make them dislike something about it.  These likes and dislikes are based on my own personal opinion. The likes could include that, in this game you are placed in the largest Grand Theft Auto map ever created. You then have the ability to adventure into this virtual area and explore and see all it has to offer. Vehicles in the game are sorted more by which section they would generally be in depending on the environment.

The ability to play three different characters allows for you to interchange without being forced to play as one character the entire game.  This also allows you to experience the game in different ways depending on which character you are playing.  Each character has their own unique feel to them which allows to experience the game more towards the lifestyle of that character. When you switch characters a short cut scene takes place to show what that character is doing. This gives the feel that the characters are doing their own things while another character is in use. The ability to switch characters is also available when you are doing missions which allows you to experience missions from different points of view.  The police have also become smarter than previous Grand Thefts Autos, they will try to ram you off the road and will deploy spike strips.

Somethings I dislike is the fact that Grand Theft Auto is more serious than the previous games of its series.  Where Grand Theft Auto 4 had more crude humor, GTA 5 still has it but took the approach to be more like actual life than a game thus lowering the amount of it.  It is also much easier to die in GTA 5 then it was in GTA 4.  Minor details like this though will not ruin the experience that GTA 5 was created to deliver.
