at least its looking good already, I am surprised after 4 (which i have never played) that they are still going with such a beautiful world.

Considering GTA has been, since GTA 3, primarily a console game, that would make sense don't you think? I could not care less about a pc version of the game. The Xbox 360 provides almost all of the gaming power I need.

Amen brother!

GRAND THEFT AUTO V Official Announcement

Developed by series creator Rockstar North, Grand Theft Auto V heads to the city of Los Santos and surrounding hills, countryside and beaches in the largest and most ambitious game Rockstar has yet created.

A bold new direction in open-world freedom, storytelling, mission-based gameplay and online multiplayer, Grand Theft Auto V focuses on the pursuit of the almighty dollar in a re-imagined, present day Southern California.

Looks like it'll be CJ again? I saw the frame of what looked like him running from the helicopter. I hope so. He's the one character IMO you actually got attached to.

the guy talking in the beginning sounds like Tommy Vercetti, so I'm not too sure about that.

I'm glad that they didn't do a full scale San Andreas, I think that would have been too much, and this way it leaves more room for future instalments.

They did do a full scale San Andreas. They confirmed it to some other gaming site that it contains the vegas and San Francisco type cities that the original SA had. Just now it's modern day.

It's too early to tell if it's just Los Santos or the entirety of San Andreas. Note the phrase 'in the largest and most ambitious game'.

Dear Rockstar North, some more details about the game would be great. Thank you in advance.

They say "present day Southern California", so I don't think San Francisco and Las Vegas will be included since they are not in Southern California. That being said, what was shown in the trailer looks good enough. There is no doubt Los Santos will be bigger than the San Andreas counterpart, just like Liberty City from GTA 3 to the Liberty City in GTA 4. I'm hoping that there are some small towns in the countryside area. Maybe they could add San Fierro and Las Venturas in a DLC.

To the person that mentioned that the voice over from the trailer sounded like Tommy Vercetti, that would be very interesting if they brought that character back, but considering Vice City took place in the 80s, if they didn't ignore that storyline, Tommy would be very close to his 60s (if not in his 60s), so I'm not so sure, but it would be interesting. Either way, I can't wait for this. San Andreas was my favorite GTA game, and I'm glad they're going back.

Tommy playing Granddad mobster will be fun. Just like Arnie starring in T3 :)

The return of Vercetti would be awesome!

I really do hope they do all the cities. Each city had a different feel to them. It's not like the commute was bad either. Just grab a jet and you are across the whole map in 2 minutes lol.

I am disappointed only one city out of the original San Andreas is featured. Nonetheless, I think it is going to be great game. After viewing the trailer, I think the GTA flair, which was so much missing in GTA IV, will return.

It is multiple cities. Trust me :p

not really...

Announcing that the game is "in full development," the game's publisher confirmed that GTA V would take place in "the city of Los Santos and surrounding hills, countryside and beaches." The firm said the game is "the largest and most ambitious game Rockstar has yet created".

    • AMD 9070XT

      One reason it might be running hotter is dust build up within the cooling or perhaps the paste has dried out. You could always try repasting your old GPU and cleaning the cooler. Your experience in Linux will be much better with an AMD GPU; the performance in gaming is much closer to Windows than nVidia would be. I personally think on Windows, AMD drivers are junk.

      I reviewed it back in March, but I didn't have a 5070 at the time https://www.neowin.net/reviews/amd-rx-9070-review-vs-rtx-5070-4070-and-rx-9070-xt-7800-xt--just-good-enough/ When I reviewed the 9070 I did have a 5070 to compare it against, so the scores are there for the 9070 XT. it outperforms the 5070 in raster, and is barely neck and neck in Ray Tracing. So it's better than a 5070 in everything but Ray Tracing where it is neck and neck, or just under. To be honest, the uplift from 3080 when it was new to the 9070 XT is not as great a step up. If you can find a used 4080 Super for around the same money, you would probably be better off, but if you only want to buy new then the 16GB 9070 XT is the best value for money in its category.

      I really hope the author's health is ok. Squirreling away a official backup of this software. Looks like the internet archive already cached a copy as well - https://web.archive.org/web/20...ldbit-soft.fi/software.html

      AMD is supported out of the box in linux because of their open source driver. Nvidia does not. All my systems are amd and all of them work nicely on linux arch without doing anything.
    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      By WaltC · Posted

      Never had a problem with TPM and started using that many years ago in Win10. Through several motherboards and OS versions, it just does what it does without complaint. My games library doesn't even know it's there. Secure boot does a lot more than support anti-cheat, as it came along long before anti-cheat software. I've used it religiously since before I started using TPM, and I always liked it for being able to nullify virus contagions that try their best to come in underneath the firmware during boot, so that the OS doesn't see them, etc. That is its purpose, imo. I'll never understand why people who elect to use another OS feel compelled to run down Windows... I guess they need to do that to feel secure about their choices? I run Windows because it supports all the software (including games) natively that I want to buy, and I've never had to run down another OS to make me feel better about it. (Although it's certainly possible to do that, of course...) Win10 is on a ventilator atm, and Win11 is very close to being free, and I finally got to stop running StartAllBack as I moved to the Experimental/Dev channel and my 26300.8553 build supports the moveable taskbar and it's running fine at the top of the screen! Finally, my last major dislike of Win11 is being rectified! So, I'm not at all surprised to see Win11's share of the Steam survey hitting 70%.
