It’s all well and good that GTA V managed to garner rabid support from franchise fans, but can it do the more difficult and entice newbies to its side?
PROS
Huge world, Plenty to do, Compelling characters, Interesting narratives, Only legal way to experience the rush of a heist
CONS
Time sink of note, Crude and sexist, Plenty of sometimes needless profanity
VERDICT
Perhaps the best summation of GTA V is that it manages to leave one lost for appropriate words - it is simply a vast title that can quite easily steal away huge chunks of your entertainment time, and you won't regret the loss for a moment.
