GTA V: 10 Things We've Learned From The New Trailer

7. The Missions Look Insane

With its more grounded, even "realistic" tone, GTA IV sorely lacked the silly missions that defined the previous games, yet going by this trailer, GTA V is returning to ol' faithful indeed. To name a few, here's some quick glimpses of missions we get in the new trailer; Trevor diving off of a train a split second before it collides with another and explodes in a giant fireball; cars being catapulted from a truck into the street at a cop car, somewhat in the style of Bad Boys 2; a jet firing missiles at a helicopter and blowing it to smithereens; and the aforementioned yacht and parachuting scenarios. The game looks wonderfully action-packed, and given how many missions we've already played through in the series, it's a testament to Rockstar's invention that they appear to have still come up with some crazy things we haven't seen before. If they get this right, it could make for the most thrillingly entertaining GTA yet.
