Where are those posters from?

 

Not sure, they look like billboard posters as they look like they've been pasted to a surface. I get all my info from gtaforums / reddit.

 

As for the map, I was hoping for area 51 from Andreas :( but damn, 3 airports :p

I do hope car physics are the same as in GTA IV - difficult driving is great on off-road tracks.

Maybe we will meet old gta characters from Vice City or so.

 

They are going to be similar but they are going to be easier to control. So you can actually use the handbrake and slide a car properly. Unlike GTAIV.

I think it has been compared to Midnight Club LA.

 

 

I'm really conflicted about getting GTA V. On one hand it looks awesome and on the other i want to hold off till it's released for the next-gen consoles (which it obviously will) and i don't want to get it for both.

 

If they gave a timeframe or even confirmed it then, yes. It would be the way to go. I can't see it appearing till next year on PC and Next Gen. Do you think you can wait that long?

Im torn for different reasons. It looks good to me but after the stinker that was GTA4 im not sure i want to risk it. That game got perfect reviews from everywhere and it was one of the most boring games I have played, such a disappointment.

It's looking like after every passing day, the less i can wait. So basically, i'll have it by the end of the month :p

I kind of agree with you about GTA4.  Even though i completed the main storyline i didn't really stay to do anything else. I'm going to wait for some gameplay videos but from what i've seen so far it looks like it's a step in the right direction and the environments look more varied and fun.

Reviewer tease...

big open areas are easy to make, but there is a lot less to see and do pre square mile comparing the city to majority of the map.

The 'empty' areas are nice but how empty are they? GTA:San andreas pulled it off decently, if that. No one really traveled in the big open desert (tip top of the map mostly) but now there is a lot more space. I just hope the roads don't feel long and boring with nothing to do around them. I hope there is more to these long road besides getting from point A to point B.

I actually really enjoyed just aimlessly driving down the roads in SA. I hope that there are some sections that take 3+ min to drive down, and nothing to really see. It reminds me of the outside world..... just without that awful sun.

One of my favorite parts of San Andreas were the long useless roads to nowhere... And then you stumble upon a little Gas station or something and it's just so comfy to me. I'm so excited for this game, damnit!

    • Microsoft finally admits its default Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 action broke key legacy component by Sayan Sen Microsoft last week released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. So far the company has acknowledged two known issues that have popped up after the release which include bugged-out Office apps as well as the Recycle Bin; though there could be more at play too. Speaking of bugs and issues, Microsoft seems to have finally acknowledged a problem that probably has been around for close to a year. That's because back in July of 2025 the company made a default change to the latest Windows 11 versions, wherein it switched to JScript9Legacy on Windows 11 24H2 and later releases. Hence following the release of version 25H2 in October 2025, JScript9Legacy also remained default-enabled. As a result there has been a compatibility issue ever since then. For those wondering, by switching to JScript9Legacy Microsoft intended to improve the security of modern Windows PCs by reducing vulnerabilities tied to legacy scripting like cross-site scripting (XSS), among others. XSS exploits can allow cyber-attackers to attach malicious code onto legitimate websites and use them to execute the code when a potential victim loads such a website. Hence the new JScript9Legacy engine enforced stricter execution policies and improved object handling, which should help mitigate such attacks. Microsoft today has published a new support article detailing the problem. Neowin spotted it while browsing. The company says that JScript global definitions and execution context may fail to persist across scripts, potentially breaking older dependent apps and web-based components that relied on this legacy behavior. In the article Microsoft has confirmed that the issue stems from its move away from the older jscript9.dll engine in favor of jscript9legacy.dll. As mentioned above, while the newer engine was designed to address vulnerabilities and strengthen security it also changes how JScript handles execution context. As a result functions and definitions loaded by one script could no longer remain available to subsequent scripts once execution ended. The company notes that some applications worked correctly on earlier Windows versions because the older JScript engine automatically retained global definitions and execution state between scripts. Under the newer model though that behavior is disabled by default causing certain legacy workloads and polyfill-dependent scripts to fail. Microsoft says it addressed the problem via the KB5077241 update though the fix had not been enabled automatically in the following updates. As such admins must explicitly turn on persistent JScript execution context using a Registry setting that the tech giant shared today. The configuration can be applied to individual processes or system-wide through the FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE registry key. The steps have been outlined below: Run the following command to create the feature control registry key: reg add "HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE" Under this key, create a new DWORD (32-bit) value. Configure the value as follows: To enable persistence for specific processes only: Set the value to 1 for each target process name. To enable persistence for all processes: Add * as the key name and set its value to 1. You can find the official support article here on Microsoft's website.
