NYCC 2013: The GTA V Panel Was as Hilarious and Epic as You'd Imagine

"We know that our unaided awareness for Ghosts is leading the way against other unreleased triple-A titles. Our digital content has proven extremely popular and Black Ops II has sold more than 3m units in the

He had to concentrate so intensely on pulling off the difficult scene that he had no time to feel outraged, upset or really any other emot

Well, I think I've covered most of the key information, so what do you all think? Personally, I'm intrigued by the narrative implications of having three playable protagonists but as someone who was less than impressed with GTA IV , I will remain skeptical.

Following a busy holiday season filled with new releases, January is typically seen as a bit of a "slower" time of the year for new game releases, with the last month's results from game sales tracker The NPD Group posting their list of the top selling titles for January 2016, which is largely dominated by many familiar fa

The first question the actors were asked was how there first got involved with the game and their feelings on it. Fonteno felt that "it was an honor to be here" and Ogg reportedly said, upon seeing the script, that "ain't nobody else doing it." Luke elaborated on the experience itself as being "really intense and very physical." Apparently the actors auditioning for the role took it very seriously, which is a great th

After the main questions, there was a Q&A session with the fans doling out the questions. One question asked the actors if they could pick any other character from any game to voice, who would they choose. Fonteno, unsurprisingly, would voice CJ from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas . He even hinted at a future event with CJ and Franklin, but the details remain a mystery. Ogg wants to voice Mario from the Super Mario Bros. series. Luke, answering in true Trevor fashion, would play the Blue Ghost from Pac

Almost seven months in since Nintendo released its newest console, and it seems that it was able to maintain clamor for the device by delivering what they have always promised the device to be -- a gaming platform that can be used at any given time and place. The Japanese conglomerate has also alleviated any doubts on the possible shortage of content as games, both big budgeted, as well as, indie ones , continue to be available on Switch and GTA5 could potentially be one of them really s

The video game industry has been a little unstable with its expectations in the last few years. Several top franchise games failed to meet lofty revenue goals - despite selling very well in their own right. Resident Evil 6 was deemed to have "fallen short of the plan" despite selling several million copies. Tomb Raide r , which sold 3.8 million copies at the time of the report, was deemed an "extraordinary loss" by Square Enix . Some blame the high expectations on Call of Duty with companies pumping more and more money into their games to try and replace the military shooter as one of the industry's most consistent sell

Following its dominance for overall game sales in 2015, Call of Duty: Black Ops III once again took the crown for the top game sales of January 2016 with Xbox One as its top selling platform, while several regulars like Grand Theft Auto V , Minecraft , and the EA Sports franchises all took a place on the cha

The Grand Theft Auto V panel at NYCC was a gathering of passionate fans and the amazing motion capture actors: Ned Luke who plays Michael, Shawn "Solo" Fonteno who plays Franklin and Steven Ogg who plays Trevor. The panel naturally began with a bang, as Ogg threw T-shirts into the audience, riling them up for handouts and autographs for a good several minu

Franklin is the youngest of the three protagonists, currently in his mid 20s. He is a young ambitious hustler who works as a repo man for an Armenian luxury car dealership. He crosses paths with Michael when looking for a hustle.

A user on NeoGAF (via Nintendo Life ) with the handle Vern has recently come out with a pretty exciting rumor for both Grand Theft Auto and Switch fans. He claims that he got a tip from a reliable source that the video game may finally be busting its way to the hybrid console. His lengthy post, which you can read below, is a supplementary explanation to his earlier insinuation that GTA5 could be coming soon to Swi

Luke enjoyed the relationship he had between the other two actors and Ogg actually brought up an interesting point: the motion capture staff team were, according to him, "these genius kids" that came up with unique and creative ways to represent certain objects in the game, such as using apple crates to represent trailer st

Call of Duty: Ghosts has a lot to overcome if it wants to even come close to GTA 5 tips|https://gta5play.com/ V 's sales numbers. Even so, Activision seems confident that even if it isn't Call of Duty: Ghosts , their flagship franchise will hold the record again by the time Rockstar release the next game in the Grand Theft Auto ser
