So GTAV has just been announced for PC and next-gen this autumn.....
And it seems you can transfer your online character from 360 or PS4 to whatever new platform you want! So even if you have a 360 you can still upgrade it to a PS4......

"...Grand Theft Auto V will take full advantage of the power of the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC with across-the-board graphical and technical improvements to deliver a stunning new level of detail. Increased draw distances, finer texture details, denser traffic, and enhanced resolutions all work together to bring new life to the cities, towns, deserts and oceans of Rockstar North?s epic reimagining of Southern California.
Switch between the interconnected lives of Michael, Trevor and Franklin as they embark on a series of heists across Los Santos and Blaine County in the biggest, deepest and richest open world experience yet, with game world enhancements that include new wildlife, upgraded weather and damage effects, and an array of new details to discover.
The new generation upgrades also extend to Grand Theft Auto Online, an ever-evolving Grand Theft Auto universe. Rise through the criminal ranks by banding together to complete Jobs for cash, purchase properties, vehicles and character upgrades, compete in traditional competitive modes, or create your own content to play and share with the Grand Theft Auto community.
All new content and gameplay created since the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online, including an extensive array of new Jobs, an arsenal of new weapons, scores of new vehicles, new properties and player customizations will also be available for the PlayStation 4 system, Xbox One and PC with much more to come. In addition, the current community of players will have the ability to transfer their Grand Theft Auto Online characters and progression to their choice of PlayStation 4, Xbox One or PC."

Wow... GTA V looks incredible on the PS3, so if they make it look better then it will be *amazing*. I really hope they add a first person mode for when you're on foot, but I doubt it, they never have done in any GTA game so far. It would be a reason for considering an PS4 or an XBox One, though, as first person mode is much more immersive than third person.
By the way, what single player DLC has been released for GTA V? I've not kept up with the add-ons.
Playing against an entire lobby of cheaters here, it's quite fun, one of them's killed me 13 times in a row, but he wouldn't have if he wasn't using the airstrike against me with a fighter jet.
his little girlfriend has been snipering people with a glitch, killed me about 7 times, before somebody finally goaded him into turning it off so I killed him about 15 times with a pistol, then I even ran up and punched him to death.
Funny thing is when I kill one of em' they're all yelling bitch at me....I'm the one playing fair and using a pistol against about 7 players all who are leveled up into the 100's, bar the sniper who was cheating, and I've been punching him.
So really who is the bitch? Me or the people leveled up way more than me, but still getting dropped by a pistol? They're using rocket launchers, and assault rifles, and miniguns willy nilly.
Well one guy reminded me how much of a bitch I was when he murdered me 41-8, of course the first 15 kills were hidden kills, about 10 of them were back of the head shots as I was spawning, and about another 10 were shots he got on me as his little homies were attacking me from 50 different directions.
So technically I probably won
Didn't want to friend him as him and all his cronies were blatant cheaters, but I wrote his name down so if I ever see him again I'm goin' after him :D

Have done that before. It's great when you see them in a session without their mates and you just follow them around, making life difficult! :D
Can't find bugger all on the newswire about it though, but when my game loaded up it said new weapons and vehicles available?
Will obviously have to go and inspect now? :D
EDIT: The weapons appear to be the Antique Dagger, and the Vintage pistol, and it looks like there's about 6 new cars. Just trying them out for free in single player before I go online and see what the reality of grindage is to buy any of them ;)
But with that many I think I'll be playing Rooftop Rumble til' I'm 40...
EDIT: EDIT: Odd selection of cars here, and strangely the ones I'm finding appealing are the ones I wouldn't usually bother with. The 6x6 Dubsta for one, total bitch to control, but it's huge and will certainly keep the hillbilly type player happy ;)
I've been in the states too long :lol:
....and all I can say is lol at the Panto....there's gonna be a lot of these driving round online in the next few days I reckon :lol:
Alright maybe I'm not going online, Rockstar games services are unavailable due to maintenance.
Which roughly translates as "Hello we've gave you new weapons and vehicles but broke the game again, please bare with us while we try and fix our massive f**k up with as little embarrassment as possible" :D
EDIT: Just got online...the New update called "I'm not a Hipster" :lol:
Yeah I've already bought 2 cars loads of new clothes, and now I'm off to check out the tattoos, and that'll probably be close to a million that I've dropped. Almost broke again now, next stop rooftop rumble for the next 3 weeks :D
I must be a bit of a Hipster in real life :(
I own several T-Shirts with things like cassettes, and retro music equipment on them :o
EDIT: I read the entire list of changes eventually glad they got rid of the invisibility glitches, because they were really pissing me off. Now all they need to do is get rid of the glitch or hack where players can launch infinite airstrikes from their personal vehicles, and get rid of "The Black Car" in online mode, it's really annoying. It's not a glitch it's literally just a black car that drives like a maniac around a given route, problem is it has a habit of always running me over when I'm done doing something and not really expecting it. I always think it's a player that's off radar, but it literally is just a really annoying NPC :mad:

Looks kinda glitchy, but it's pretty sound even so.
Wouldn't want it for the vehicles, but it makes you appreciate the fact that Rockstar actually took the time to actually make the characters touch the parts of the vehicle interiors that matter, and not just make it look like they were doing it from outside the vehicle.
That I'm sure made the modders mission a lot easier, as they haven't had to correct glitchy or non existent vehcle management.
I hate FPS games though and it wouldn't really add anything to my game as if I'm free aiming and not auto targeting I'd rather do the resi-4 style OTS view for gun battles anyway.
Found a new glitch last night. Seems that no matter how often I get a hairstyle at the Barber's shop, it falls off again within about 20 mins, leaving my character a skinhead..

I've never managed to make my character completely bald, hair always magically grows back lol
In other news, the last couple of nights i've ended up in servers with low rank newbies. Had my Zentorno destroyed a couple of times, so took the Adder out instead. If they want to pay my insurance excess, might as well make it $12500. :D
Got a glitch last night/this morning with Security Vans....so my cousin and I collected about $350,000 each from constantly attacking the respawning vans! :D
Managed to buy my 2nd property and a flashy car with the cash...

I had the game freeze on me a couple of times, but I just assumed it was my ancient Xbox!
Still might be though, as it's frozen on another couple of games too...but now you've got me wondering!

None yet...just a few extra weapons and cars, which were more of an update to GTA Online that you could use in single player.
Single player DLC is due out later in the year..
his little girlfriend has been snipering people with a glitch, killed me about 7 times, before somebody finally goaded him into turning it off so I killed him about 15 times with a pistol, then I even ran up and punched him to death.

Someone's modded in a First Person Mode :o:
How are people making mods for this, what with it not being out on PC yet and whatnot?
A bit naughty really, AFAIK you can only do it on modchipped Xbox 360s.
Hmmmm. May have to keep an eye/ear out for anyone selling a cheap 360... ;-)
