Switching between characters during a mission when all three are involved is buttery smooth. But switching when they are apart and separated in Los Santos there's a 10-15 sec delay.

for xbox 360 users make sure you only install the INSTALL disc and not the PLAY disc

Don?t Install GTA V?s Xbox 360 Play Disc | GTA 5 TV

Rockstar Games advices Xbox 360 owners not to install GTA V‘s play disc, as it will negatively impact performance.

The Rockstar Support twitter explains: “For optimal performance, we recommend not installing that disc. We will have more info on our Support Site at launch.”

GTA V Disc 2

GTA V comes on two 8GB discs on Xbox 360; the first is a mandatory “install” disc, while the second is the “play” disc. While you will have to install the former, the studio has warned against trying to do the same for the latter as it will negatively impact how the game runs.

for PS3 owners should check out this headset with a brand new feature

GTA V Edition PS3 Pulse Headset Available Now



For its new outing, the headset dons a GTA V inspired paint-job and packs a new custom sound setting, whilst still maintaining the original headset’s features, such as the virtual 7.1 surround sound, built-in noise cancelling microphone and Sony’s BassImpact technology.

The Grand Theft Auto V Sound Mode is said to enhance immersion, “letting players use both sound and vibration to sense the impact of bullets, helping to locate incoming gunfire in hectic shootouts; as well as a vibration-based heartbeat to indicate low health, and additional effects to enhance explosions, crashes and much more.”

If you’ve forked out in the past for the impressive headpiece though, and aren’t all that fussed about the GTA emblem adorning your lugholes, fear not, for the Pulse Manager app – which also released today – has you sorted.

Besides the above mentioned Grand Theft Auto mode, the app allows you to program your headset’s output with numerous preset sound modes, including “shooter”, “racing”, “hip-hop” and “horror” amongst others. The app also has a few more more specific setups in the bank for big title releases too, including support for Bioshock Infinite, and Naughty Dog’s already ridiculously atmospheric The Last Of Us.

They haven't mentioned a next gen copy at all.. The $10 upgrade you're referring to is for a few EA games

how long till the PC version comes out, cuz damn this looks and plays like shit.... PC gaming has spoiled me maybe, but this game runs in 720p, super choppy, framerates dipping well below 30fps fairly often, still looks better from GTA 4 from what i remember, that game was running an upscaled 480p from what I remember.... i havent turned on my ps3 in about 6 months, but i noticed that the damn PSN store lags like a mofo, sup with that ?

gonna grab an SSD to dump into the PS3 to help a bit with this game and also GT6 thats coming out soon




also does this save on cloud service? I'm a PSN + member, so if I swap HD's I'll have my save game to reupload again ?

Yea after playing BF3, farcry, crysis, etc to switch to this it's kind of a smack in the face

I even noticed in the opening scene when the guy is on the beach textures "popping" as it loaded. You would have thought main cinematics would have been at least taken care of lol

only certain games can be upgraded to next gen console for $10, but not GTAV

Turn Your Current-Gen Games Into Next-Gen Games For Just $10
