Grand Theft Auto V, fifteenth game GTA in the series – much anticipated, much speculated and much debated – is definitely arriving in the hands of gamers this year. It’s a series that is drenched in detail, controversy, and which comes with fond memories for most fans, and it is sure to push current generation consoles to the very limit of their capabilities.
At this stage very few details of the game are set in stone, the most revealing news being from the Game Informer article, so speculation is gathered from Rockstar’s flawless screenshots and action packed (two) stunning trailers. Hopefully the below points should summarise some of the features that I am at least 90% sure the game will contain.
10. Golf
A golf course with people playing appears in the first trailer, and Vice City of the standard definition era featured a system of islands known as the Leaf Links golf course. Grand Theft Auto Vice City didn’t have a true use for this course and it was seemingly just an aesthetic inclusion part from the odd health, armour, weapon or Tiki pickup.
Grand Theft Auto Vice City Stories returned to the Vice City and Leaf Links now featured a golf mini game (albeit a small one) at the driving range, and in addition, Grand Theft Auto San Andreas’ Las Venturas and San Fierro also featured unplayable golf courses. This all comes back to most fans’ belief that Rockstar listen to them, and that the developer take what fans want into account, and it seems GTA V might be the time for golf.
So after fourteen games, three with golf courses, it seems Rockstar are rewarding long-time fans and hard-core gamers with a golf mini game with full mechanics of a AAA golf game. And we can’t wait.

I think Just cause 2 flying mechanism was awesome except that you cudnt retract the wheels of the plane after take off. Its just cool to line ur plane up on the runway, and takeoff while retracting the wheels just at that precise moment… cant wait for GTA V!
Just Cause 2 was an amazing game. The ability to fly such a range of aircraft was great but intricate features like wheel retraction was lacking. Hopefully GTA V will have details like this, like GTA SA.
awesome.. I am very curious to purchase this hope. Hope they will launch it soon on time.
Any time in March, April or May.
More like September 17, 2013.

Good point haha.
STOP WITH AWFUL GTAV LISTS.
it honestly got old eight months ago…
Exactly, all these GTAV lists and rumours and the whole thing with launching a trailer then nothing else for a year is making me sick to death of GTAV already and its not even out yet!
I would love to see the ability to customize the safe houses, like using the money earned in game to buy furniture etc…
I would love to see that too.
Then you both need to play The Sims! Next you will say you want the ability to play dress up in pretty dresses and play tea parties with teddys.
ugh so much to cram into one game couldn’t this all just detract from actually playing the game?
Yeah it could, but not long to wait now.
I just want to f–k about, that’s what GTA are good for.
Well when it comes down to it who doesn’t. Especially with three characters.
Exactly, nothing like killing time rocking around blowing stuff up
My thoughts exactly.
great article. got a question. in the radio section the image with the radio stations. are those the official stations in gta5?
