Grand Theft Auto V Debuts To Glowing Reviews

Rockstar Games has announced that Grand Theft Auto V can now be purchased for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Grand Theft Auto V will have players adventuring into the dense urban metropolis of Los Santos and the beautiful countryside of Blaine County where they will complete epic heists and meet a cast of colorful characters.

From the Press Release
Rockstar Games is very proud to announce that Grand Theft Auto V is now available worldwide for the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and also available for digital download from the PlayStation Network.

"Grand Theft Auto V was a massive undertaking for us, I'm so proud of what the team created," said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. "We cannot wait for people to finally play it."

 Developed by series creator, Rockstar North, Grand Theft Auto V pushes the series forward in exciting new ways. For the first time, players can jump in and out of the lives of three simultaneously playable lead characters, experiencing all sides of an interwoven story. Set in a satirical reimagining of modern day Southern California, Grand Theft Auto V offers players the freedom to explore the dense urban metropolis of Los Santos and the wide open countryside of Blaine County; plan and execute a series of epic heists; meet a vast array of strangers and freaks; or participate in a host of activities, from golf to arms trafficking, base jumping to yoga and much more.

 Following are samples of early reviews:

 "The most immersive spectacle in interactive entertainment." - The New York Times

 "No other world in video games comes close to this in size or scope, and there is sharp intelligence behind its sense of humor and gift for mayhem. It tells a compelling, unpredictable, and provocative story without ever letting it get in the way of your own self-directed adventures through San Andreas. It is one of the very best video games ever made." - IGN, 10/10

 "It's a remarkable achievement, a peerless marriage of world design, storytelling and mechanics that pushes these ageing consoles to the limit and makes it all look easy. As we stand on the brink of a new generation, GTA V sends an intimidating message to the rest of the industry. Beat that." - Edge, 10/10

 "You've never seen a game world as thoroughly realized...as irresistible to play as it is to admire." - Time, 5/5

 "GTA V is the culmination of everything we love about the series: It's big, it's pretty, and most importantly it's just nonstop fun." - Guardian UK, 100%

 "One of the pinnacle achievements this generation of games has offered." - CNET

 Grand Theft Auto V also includes access to Grand Theft Auto Online, the revolutionary new open world online game launching October 1, 2013 that comes free with every copy of Grand Theft Auto V.

Fans brag about the fried green tomatoes, juicy pork chops, slow-cooked beef tips, and banana pudding that deserves its own holiday. The staff are another highlight—quick with refills, friendly enough to feel like family, and the kind of people who can make a buffet feel like Sunday dinner at grandma’s. But Kacey’s has its critics too. Some diners rave about “the best bang for your buck in town,” while others complain that the food sometimes veers into “straight-from-the-can” territory.
