Previews and screenshots appear - large, larger, Grand Theft Auto 5
Preview reveal that GTA5 will contain more customization, combat improvements and more features which make this game one of the largest open world titles ever.
A few video game websites have gone live with previews for Rockstar's new title. The previews include new information about the game:
You can do yoga, play golf, tennis and all other sorts of recreational activities.
The property system is back with mini game and side missions.
The game contains strategic and cinematic heists. GTA5 will be the biggest game in the whole series. You can switch between the three main protagonists outside of a mission although each character may be at a different place of the map.
Each protagonist has his own skills: Michael can use bullet time like in Max Payne, Franklin has a slo-mo ability when driving and Trevor can go into a berserk mode which allows him to rage against an enemy who is close by. Each of the skills has a meter which needs to fill itself back up after using it. The more this ability is used the more effective it becomes.
There will be drop-in drop-out multiplayer, finding treasures underwater and you can take in-game screenshots with the new phone, the iFruit. The pictures can be shared through the Rockstar Games Social Club and through other social networks.
