8. "GTA V-Inspired Modern Controls"

GTA 3-through-San Andreas aiming and "weapon feel" has... not aged well.

Not terrible or outright bad of course, but the gaming industry - and Rockstar - have come a long way with third-person shooting in the last couple decades.

For this new trilogy then - and you'd have to catch a specific tweet to know - Rockstar are modelling the feel of weapons, aiming and movement for these older games, on the 2013 masterwork that is GTA V.

That should hopefully mean the "zoom in and find a headshot"-style animation we've known for the better part of a decade, and the ability to free aim between targets too.
