5. Sound Design
I'm a bit of a sound fanatic, and it's only now games are reaching a movie-like quality. Some of pistols and rifles of GTA 4 sounded like popcorn popping. Also, the car engines were very muted, even on high end sports cars. For GTA V, I want NFS Shift meets Battlefield 3 meets Mortal Kombat 9. Non-stop, relentless ear assault. What is really odd is how Rockstar edits the sound effects on their trailers and it ends up sounding better. It's as if they know it could be better and don't bother to fix it. There's just a few ideas for making GTA V even more incredible than it will be. While I have great love for GTA 4, some of bugged me and I know that others despised the game for some of these features.
