You have got to be kidding me! This literally reads like a satire piece. At many points throughout the article, I was convinced this had to be a joke. It reads like a parody of your typical clueless journalist writing about this evil game where you are "trained to kill" and "rewarded for shooting civilians". And of course they mention the classic "have sex with a prostitute and beat her with a baseball bat". Now all the guy needs to mention is how you "get p...

The level of detail in the world is downright absurd. No game even comes close. GTA V has more detailed, handcrafted environments than The Last of Us, and it's an open world game! GTA V is the greatest technical marvel of this generation, without a doubt. The fact that the game runs with a steady frame rate with these hyper-detailed environments, incredible draw distance, huge map, almost nonexistent loading times, advanced physics, increased number of vehicles on the road, complex lighti...

Can't wait to pick up my Xbox One day one this November. Exciting times!

It's certainly foolish and shows the childlike mentality of a person who uses the term to diss the console. Of course, I've seen people call it Xbone that are huge Xbox fans and have already preordered, so it depends on the context in which it's being used.

And who's to say that no bots were used to boost the PS4's votes? Why, that would never happen! Honestly, if you believe these easily manipulated internet polls are any indication of reality, or that the PS4 is going to outsell the XB1 9 to 1 (or even 2 to 1) this November, then you need a reality check.

I don't see a level playing field. Sure, Microsoft has the clear advantage when it comes to launch lineup and the sheer number of features available in the box, but they are still facing a lot of backlash from their past mistakes, and Sony has the huge $100 price advantage and most hardcore gamers on their side.

That dog would still be alive if it were not for the stupidity of his owner. The police were responding to an armed robbery call, with people barricaded inside a home during a 2-hour standoff. While the police were trying to do their job, this fool was blasting loud music from his car and intentionally walking within close-proximity to armed officers, while holding an 80-pound Rottweiler on a leash. He refused to comply when asked to leave the area.

As Rockstar themselves have stated, there is no lead platform. Both versions were developed simultaneously from the ground up:

And I don't understand why this has to turn into a PS3 vs 360 war either. The Xbox 360 version is what Rockstar used for the recent hands-on previews. This isn't comparing performance between t...

Gran Turismo is a good long-term seller, but it does not smash sales records every time like Halo. Halo 4 sold over 3 million copies in its first 24 hours, becoming the fastest-selling Halo game to date. GT5 came nowhere even close to that.

Sony simply has no game that breaks opening day records and creates such a frenzy in the gaming world like a Halo release does. GT5 still sold an incredible 10 million units, but it can't match Halo 3's 12 million. Not to mention, ...

What a refreshing read! If I see one more deeply misinformed article about games causing violence and GTA "awarding players points for killing cops" I am going to lose it.

50 square miles sounds a bit high for GTA V, but nevertheless, the entire world is handcrafted. Every storefront is unique, every building is meticulously designed, the detail is off the charts even down to the cracks in the sidewalk and the graffiti covering the walls. I dare say there will be more unique detail in one block of GTA V's Los Santos than in the entirety of JC2's gigantic island map. That was one big copy-and-paste job.

Metacritic is broken because you don't agree with GTA IV's metascore? That's funny, because I completely agree with GTA IV's metascore and it is still my favorite game of this gen (and better than San Andreas). See, these are called opinions. A review shows you the reviewer's opinion on the game. Metacritic takes everyone's opinions, and averages them into one score. GTA IV is clearly loved by critics and that is why it sits above everyone else with a 98.

I don't even care about next gen. GTA V is all that's on my mind. The PS4 and XB1 can wait 'til next year!

I have used GameFly for over four years and I have never been "double-charged" or faced any hidden fees. I don't know how I would support my gaming habits without it. I can play every new release without having to plunk down $60 every time. It would take 3 months of the 2-game plan to equal the price of one brand new retail game. GameFly saves me hundreds of dollars!

They have already released two gameplay videos, one for single player and one for multiplayer. Even that was unprecedented since they never released any gameplay footage for GTA IV before release.

I love how they now have every light source in the world draw in from the distance. It really makes the world feel more real when you can be out in the dark wilderness and see civilization out far in the distance. No disappearing lights as you get farther away. It really looks amazing in that nighttime screen of Los Santos where you can see every single street light.

12 million on PC, 8 million on Xbox 360, 10 million on mobile platforms; Minecraft is a phenomenon!

Across all the screens and trailers, just about every part of the map has in fact been seen. This fan made map is very accurate and if you look at the achievement image for exploring the whole map, you will see the outline of the world is identical to the fan map.

There may be many roads missing on this map, but the general layout of the land, the size of the city and countryside should be close to 100% accurate.

You can see the entire 1000+ page mapping thre...

Pretty poor comparison, Skips. Only one full Gran Turismo game has released to-date on the PS3. Now how many Halo games have released on the 360? Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, Halo: Reach, Halo 4...I won't count Halo Wars considering it's an RTS game. ODST has sold over 6 million as a glorified expansion. Halo 3 near 12 million as the crown jewel of the franchise, Halo: Reach over 10 million when you include digital sales. And Halo 4 headed toward 9 million already as the fastest-selling Halo...

Exactly! Which is why it is beyond me why anyone would expect the PSEye to come anywhere close to the features and performance of Kinect 2.
