Recently got around to playing this at last. Its been a very long time since I played GTA IV. I have to say, I was simultaneously floored and elated with how Rockstar basically took a shit on nearly all of the hypocrisies and ugliness of Americana. They covered immigration, corporate control of media, government intelligence agencies with ties to organized crime, predatory lending and banking, the privatization of military, the normalization of torture, on and on and on. It was brilliant! Frankly, I think Rockstars recent comments about it being more difficult to make GTA today due to the polarization of ideologies in America is bullshit. What better time could they ask for? There is EVEN MORE to make fun of now, than ever!

​@@ashhabimran239 well it depends on your preference like he said in the video,adding bright colors,a big map,a bunch of characters,gun customization,more vehicles and car customization doesnt make it a better game then GTA 4 especially when they dumbed down everything in gta 5 that was in gta 4.i mean if you grew up playing gta 4 and went to play gta 5 youd understand why people prefer gta 4.the story is more in depth compared to gta 5.i actually prefer playing as one protagonist compared to 3 i just dont feel as much love for micheal trevor or franklin as i did for niko back in 2008.if i had to pick my favorite character in gta 5 it would be hard to do cuz they all hit and miss for me.also i went into gta 5 thinkin it would be similar to san andreas and was absolutely disappointed.i felt like having a protagonist whos like CJ wouldve been perfect.instead we got Franklin whos pretty much the opposite.

I remember i pre ordered the game a year in advanced for my 360. I ran home on the day of release and ripped open the packaging and when i booted it up i was amazed. I thought graphics couldn’t look more real, even on the 360! It’s been 5 years and i have over 70 days of gameplay on online alone. Across the 360, ps4, xbox one and PC i have completed the campaign at least once, multiple times on the Xbox One and 360. The memories i have created will stick with me for years to come and i can truly say this is my favourite game of all time. I loved San Andreas, Vice City and IV, but i have the fondest memories of V.

[@kummakummakummakummakummac8606]

I tried waiting for the PC version. At 6 months said f*ck it and bought it for X box 360. I should have just bought it on day 1. I've played it on X box 360, PS3 and PC ( all single player) and still play it today. If I had to pick a favorite I would say San Andreas but wouldn't have a problem playing any GTA game.

Having three protagonists was a good idea and a very fun one, with one big problem for me. I could not feel attached to any of them. They had lives I was not a part of. When I controlled Tommy, CJ, Claude, Niko I lived their lives, their entire lives and even if they were not likeable characters I felt for them. But with GTAV I switched to Trevor and he was somewhere else than when I left him. What did he do there? How did he go there? I didn't know and it bothered me. Sure the game is great but I didn't get invested emotionally at all compared to previous GTA games

[@frogglen6350]

He got there because he can travel on his own. Duh.

[@makenziebrennan4027]

GTA V's protagonists honestly have the most realistic and relatable lives for their situations.

[@MerlautJones]

That actually bothered you? I was amused by Trevor doing random shenanigans when I switch back to him. I rly liked Franklin, didn't get attached to T or M for other reasons.

[@akshaytati]

The random activities that characters do when you switch to them was there to make the world feel more lively They didn't want the game to revovle around the characters only They tried to make it seem like even if you do not play the game the world continues to carry almost as if it does not matter what you are doing

[@notalaeyt784]

I loved the fact that charachters in GTA V have their own lives when you're not playing as them, it shows their charachter, like when you switch to trevor you find him doing the weirdest shit ever like being drunk on a mountain wearing a dress or following a guy on a scooter screaming "scooter brothers" it shows that he's crazy as hell the only thing that i didnt like about it is that it switches their clothes from the clothes that i use sometimes

But the mafia theme from LCS wins me over. I hope they make another GTA with a mob storyline.

Lets see, unlike GTA IV's storyline, GTA V is realistic. When you murder a mafia boss you would be in deep shit, it isn't like GTA IV where you take out 4 fucking mafia families, it takes a more realistic approach to the protagonists. The protagonists are human beings, not superheros, they can get overpowered, outgunned, outmatched and more. They actually need heavy weaponry, protection, planning and backup for most things.

in retrospect, they didn't know any better.

[@makenziebrennan4027]

@4th Wall Breaker You're saying that GTA IV is dark and that GTA V is a comedy? Bullshit. Other than killing, stealing and kidnapping nothing about IV is dark. GTA V isn't a comedy either, it's a satirical version of L.A. mixing seriousness and comedy perfectly. If GTA V were a comedy, there would be very little serious moments, but that's not the case. There are a bunch of serious and funny moments, that's what a story should do. It should shake things up and make the story interesting, drama, comedy, twists and turns, character development, etc etc.

I'm a bit disappointed by the lack of criticism. Sure! it's a good game and does things better than the previous one's but it sure as hell doesnt do better in every case and several serious compromises had to be made so that it would work on the older consoles and the stupid delay of the game on PCs was ridiculous. Despite all the hype and the good side of it, it got boring really really fast. The story might have been long bu it was the most forgettable story of the franchise IMHO. None of the characters are with us long enough to feel relatable. Especially Micheal and Trevor had such strong characters that are potentially conflicting with the players ideas and choices that it felt like I was watching a video and following hints and directions from someone rather than being in their place in the moment. The major step backwards of the physics and A.I. system definitely didn't help with the immersion. Especially the A.I. aspect.

Franklin was the only one who I could connect to. Most GTA protagonists have a certain “fish out of water” quality to them. Trevor and Michael were boring as they essentially had no real character development having been successful criminals in the past. Franklin experiences new things and so is far more like the player. If Trevor moved to LS to find Michael and had to get to know the city then maybe he could’ve been a good character. Michael as an old, retired criminal is boring no matter what to me.

[@RacerC45]

When I first played it back in 2013, I admit, I found the story to be all over the place as there doesn't seemed to be a central thread tying all three character together. All three characters have their agendas and mini-stories that either get thrown to the side or resolved rather quickly with little to no payoff. Like Michael's issue with his family, Franklin's friendship with Lamar, and Trevor, well, maybe not Trevor, but still... Plus there wasn't a central antagonist like Tenpenny from San Andreas, and by the time the credits roll I was like, "That's it?".

[@jaketobin1822]

RacerC45 Agree with you. I love this game, but my biggest issue was a lack of a good antagonist. They all felt weak compared to Tenpenny, the Forellis, Dimitri/Jimmy, and Catalina. The most intimidating rival they face is Madrazo but his story wraps up well before the end. If I could wish one thing this game did significantly better, I’d be have a stronger villain.

Much as I enjoy GTA V, I can agree. I feel like there were plenty of missed opportunities when it comes to the soundtrack. But then again, Rockstar has always had problems licensing music (and keeping them long enough) for their games. Evident by the rereleases of Vice City, San Andreas and IV, with several tracks being removed.

[@greenhowie]

It's interesting watching this after the other GTA videos. You've really improved the editing, script and format in general.

[@JaydevRaol]

Excellent Reveiw man! What I love about your reveiws is how it gives a lot of context before and after the release of the game you are talking about. It's almost documentary-esque. I remember that I was looking for GTA San Andreas Reveiw if someone has done retrospective review of it and I stumbled upon your channel and I really loved your reveiw of it and so I checked out your other reveiws and they were all excellent. Please continue reviewing more game. Thanks 👍

[@dairecanny342]

Thanks a lot ColourShed I was literally wondering if you‘d make a new vid a few hours ago and was watching some older reviews. I really fuckin love your vids and I watch em for ages. I’m really happy I’ve found a great reviewer who reviews som of my favorite games so thanks a lot man

[@JeyDub08]

Single player GTA V set a new bar for modern open world games, it was in its own league when it first came out

[@Evaquiel]

I'd like to just point out some problems you skipped, specially when comparing it to GTA IV: 1 - Melee fighting is a lot more limited, GTA IV had various takedawns after dogding and punching. 2 - While there is maybe more content on the internet here, GTA IV's internet had more things to interect, such as being able to actually go on dates from date sites. 3 - The fact that you can't really have a custom car that you cant lost is a pain in the ass and takes away the whole point of spending thousands on custom vehicles to me. To me, its one of the biggest flaws that is really easy to fix in the game. Other then that, its pretty the best review of this i saw, like usual. Great work!!!

[@avert_bs]

Point 3 completely contradicts itself. At least in gta 5 you can have a custom car. The most custom car that you can have in gta 4 is to put it in the paint and spray, until you get the right colour. Also don't get me started on the parking spots in gta 4. Once It took me 30 minutes to find an infernus. When I finally found one, i immediately saved it in the algonquin safehouse and saved the game. Couple of days later, I decide to play some gta 4, I loaded that save file and the infernus was not there, cuz the traffic pushed it out the save slot, and it disappeared. I don't know why they needed to change it, cuz the garages already worked fine in gta San Andreas. I'm glad they reverted that back.

[@avert_bs]

Your supposed "criticism" is just mere nitpicking. If I were to give gta 5 actual criticism, it would be the physics. They were majorly downgraded and look extremely dull. Gta 4 has fun and realistic physics. Sometimes it's kind of over the top, but I rather have over the top physics, that dull ones.

[@I3urton]

The reason they decreased the ragdoll physics is because Gta 4's ragdoll physics were so intensive that it caused a lot of performance issues. The consoles and PC's at the time just couldn't handle it very well so they decreased it to improve performance

GTA V is like a fake diamond: flashy and exotic, but a closer examination shows inauthenticity and emptiness.

[@Charles-hy6gp]

Nope, the game isnt empty, stuff like random events, details make the game alive but not more enjoyable Well for the story the only way to make it good its: scrap Franklin, FIB/IAA thing, Triads, make Madrazo the main antagonist, .... In fact you have to scrapped it and started over complety, lenght isnt the problem, is the quality For example a random character like Brian in IV have a great character development in such a little amount of time

[@hotwire96]

'I might have more fond memories of waiting for GTA V to come out than the hours I've played' This 100% summarises this game for me. I'd played hours and hours of SA and IV (and still do from time to time), but a short and chintzy story, forgettable characters, arcadey and crappy driving mechanics, and a city and map that felt without a lot of detail and soul has meant I haven't played through the story since 2013 and haven't picked it up again in years. GTA Online just added insult to injury, I personally played it once and spent far more time on IV's online mode. I really hope the next one is better but I won't be holding my breath.

GTA San Andreas had a nicer story. CJ's progression from nothing to a boss is really well paced, unlike Franklin's who is obviously inspired. Not to mention the best GTA V missions are just remakes of SA missions.

[@DNR333]

what the fuck do you even mean

[@Ecliptor.]

I think GTASA story is overrated af and only liked by kid "gangsta" wannabes that listened to too much rap for their own good. The best missions in that game, imo, are the ones that have nothing to do with the "hood", like the Toreno missions (my favorite character in that game), or the heist. I think the game gets better as soon as you get to San Fierro, and does a nose dive when you come back to Los Santos and start the hood shit again. Don't get me wrong, tho. It's still a great game and one of my favorites.

[@-Tony-Gunk-]

You're saying every heist, deathwish, hood safari, bury the hatchet, were all copies of gta sa, lol. The one mission which was similar was the 3rd part of the end of the line where you try to catch sweet who's hanging from a firetruck, similar to how Jimmy is hanging from Michael's boat

You CAN set up independent Camera angles in the settings: Meaning you can do first person while you run and gun And then when you get in a car, it automatically switches to 3rd person.
