Rockstar Introduces Michael Trevor Franklin As Stars Of GTA V
The popular franchise has proven a suitable playground for modification, most notably by JulioNIB , who put Hulk and Gta5Play.Com Spider-Man in GTA IV a few years back. And now, the modder has created an impressive and authentic Iron Man mod for GTA V that proves why the hero is so fit for the gaming screen. Check out the video ab
It was an incredibly strong showing for games this year with three major 'Game of the Year' contenders in Grand Theft Auto V , The Last of Us and BioShock Infinite all hogging the nominations. In fact, the program featured close categories throughout with Game of the Year, Studio of the Year, Best Independent Game and acting categories being especially tight ca
Popular video game **Grand Theft Auto V ** could be making its way to Nintendo Switch . The action-adventure video game developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games has garnered a cult following, ramping up the success that the franchise has been enjoying since it was first released in 2008. The latest iteration in the game series, which was rolled-out in 2013, takes players to the fictional location of Los Santos, San Andreas state of San Andreas, where every gamer can live out their best (or worst) thieving dre
Speaking to Chicago's WGN radio station this week, iconic GTA presenter, publisher and all-round personality Lucien 'Lazlow' Jones, explained to listeners the extreme lengths the studio had gone to in order to secure authentic vocal talents. Recording in people's homes, on the streets and in-studio - alongside a plethora of real life gang members - Jones cites authenticity as being his number one g
Shifting the game's hype train into high gear, developer Rockstar has been hard at work filling in our news feeds as of late, touting everything from radio station teases , to brand-new trailers and even a recreation of the GTA III Banshee sportscar . Now, the studio behind the mammoth sandbox franchise is sitting down to discuss the game's unusually sourced voice w
For example, CVG reports that the game smashed retail records in the UK, quickly becoming the biggest video game launch ever seen. The game sold 1.57 million units for a total of around $104 million in Britain, plowing through the previous record set by Call of Duty: Black Ops which sold around 1.41 million units on its launch day. To put that in perspective, the UK has a population of around 63 million, meaning that more then 1 in 60 people in the entire country own a copy. That is a lot after just one day on the mar
Rather than script hokey gangland chatter amongst themselves, Lazlow claims Rockstar were more than willing to work alongside these one-time voiceover artists, some of whom would "look at the lines and say, 'I wouldn't say that,' so we say, 'OK, say what you would say?' […] There's a lot of sessions where we would just throw the script on the floor, [saying] 'this is is irrelevant, let's just work on something rea
According to IGN , Rockstar Games parent company Take-Two Interactive revealed that GTA V made $800 million dollars in its first day of trading, to which they are quite understandably "thrilled" with. The company revealed that the game became "the highest first day retail sales of any title in the history of the company and the Grand Theft Auto series." For a company that has the entire back catalog of GTA , as well as games like Red Dead Redemption , that is no small feat. But that statement might still be selling this success sh
In the end, what we got was a seemingly fair distribution of awards with GTA V winning the Best Game, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag winning the Best Action/Adventure, BioShock Infinite winning Best Shooter and Naughty Dog winning the Best Stu
As we run into December, it's that time of year again where gamers come together to debate, argue and ultimately celebrate the previous twelve months of gaming. While everyone will keep a mental note of their favorite game, Spike TV's awards ceremony often signals the beginning of 'Game of the Year' articles popping up just about everywhere on the internet. Although procedure was a little different this year as the VGAs went through a bit of a makeo
Grand Theft Auto V will continue to sell like hot cakes and it will be very interesting to see just how large the gross number becomes over the course of the next week, hopefully with a solid number on units sold surfacing. While it is utterly futile to compare a game and a movie, it would be fascinating to see just how it compared to some of the biggest ever movie releases, especially as the series won't be transitioning to the big screen its
Described as providing "ambient character" work, these recordings are likely to end up being utilized as part of the game's background chatter; the general buzz of the city surrounding protagonists Michael, Trevor & Franklin. Of course, Grand Theft Auto V isn't the first criminal epic to employ cons, both active and otherwise. HBO's The Wire assigned many key roles to former hoodlums, creating a sense of realism often lost on similar 'police procedurals.' Rockstar is likely hoping to echo the success of that world h
