It's quite hard to believe it, but yes - yesterday marked 10 years since GTA 5 first released on PS3 and Xbox 360.

So I’m assuming they’re going to release a brand new 10th anniversary edition for $70

I really love the world of GTA V, it has a lot to explore and is beautiful. I just wish the driving physics to explore it weren't so utterly boring. GTA IV had great arcade driving.

When you say “Arcade driving” if you mean “zero friction simulation” then yes, sure. I went back to GTA4 recently because I loved the story and after 2k hours in GTAV, driving in 4 makes me want to kill myself

Many fond memories tinkering with the infamous GTAIV swing glitch.

I mean real damage, spinning out, hitting a curb actually feeling like hitting a curb and overall feel. Gta V has too much grip and you can easily just take a sports car up a mountain offroad. It's soulless.

After coming off San Andreas when 4 came out, I figured it was the same as SA with the skill system that made the cars less slidey the better CJ got. But nope. It's just like that. It gives the vehicles more sense of weight, but it's too slidey unless the road is meant to be black ice. I feel like 5 has the best arcade like driving. Especially with the addition of being able to control your pitch and roll in a car and not just on a bike. It's not too real, but it's not super cartoonish. It's a perfect middle area.

And I though I was the only one that enjoyed the more skill-based handling in IV! In V every car has Trackmania levels of grip lol

I need to finish that some day. I loved it at first, in fact I still love the gameplay and map. But the storylines just didn't grab me. Michael is a dick with an asshole family, Franklin is a good dude but a dumbass, and Trevor well anyone who does business with him should not expect good results.

Oh god I remember the online 1 week later and how busted it was, it was great

I remember reading the specs and realising I would have to put a hard drive into my PS3 Super Slim to play it. This model comes with 12 GB of flash storage and GTA5 might fit if you have nothing else installed. I can't say for sure, I never tried it.

Wow, so how old is GTA6 then?
