Meth is magic. Why do you think Walter White's prognosis changed? Either meth is magic, or his first doctor was ECG. Good luck with that. This game is quite capricious and still has more than a few boring missions. Nothing quite like getting ten minutes into the replay of a mission and then being DQed from the gold due to a random headshot. |

Plenty of NES games had checkpoints, and when those checkpoints were fucked up or unfair, no one was like "Wow what a great challenge".
If you dont believe me, go and find someone who enjoyed losing to the final boss in ninja gaiden, and going all the way back to the start of 6 god damn fucking 1. GTA V's checkpoints arent gamebreaking by any means. You often have to repeat fairly large sections of the missions. Given that combat is tougher, and that once body armor goes, you can only take a few hits if not a OSK, checkpoints are very welcome. |

Jeez, AirEmu flights must be getting boycotted at the airport. Need to blow up some planes to manipulate some stocks and they just aren't showing up.

Fignuts then goes on to talk about checkpoints on the NES and how they related. I'm not sure who you think is "missing" this. |

With GTA:SA you wouldn't have to spend 15 minutes driving to the location because they had the skip option.

I've noticed there are a lot more ladders and stairs, and accesses to roofs and higher vantage points than in other games. That verticality will add a lot to combat in GTAO, I think.

Hate Triathlons. 15 minutes of pressing "A" and I'm not even done with the bike portion. Fuuuuck. I think I have Carpal Tunnel.
Honesty at last. How refreshing. Don't you get a one-star for shooting, period? Like, I know you don't get a star every time you do something (witness-dependent), but I thought just firing your gun in the air got you a star. |

Going to make this quick because I'm incredibly jet lagged at the moment but I had the opportunity this week to visit New York to hang with several other GTA site webmasters to check out GTA Online and it is looking fantastic so far. Will come up with more when I've written up my full report but so far it's pretty impressive, if you have any questions fire away they've allowed us to talk about pretty much everything we saw this time around.

I don't know if you played Fable 2/3, but their online had orbs/ppl that we could hear if they had a headset on, are we going to have to hear ppl around us all the time like that? It'd be sweet for the initial experience, but I could see myself turning that option off.

I can't confirm that one way or another because the in-game chat function wasn't working in the build we played, we had to put together and Xbox Live party to use voice chat. There is some in game chat in there but not sure if it's based on proximity or just being able to hear all the other people in the game, I would imagine there are numerous settings you can tweak to set to friends only or nothing at all but it isn't something we tried.
