GTA 5 (V) Is fast becomIng the most antIcIpated game of the year and whIle everyone Is lookIng forward we decIded to take a look back at early GTA experIences just to remInd ourselves how much progress has been made and how IncredIble the new GTA experIence Is goIng to be.
FIrstly let’s look back to GTA In 1997 – At the tIme thIs game was hugely antIcIpated and dIdn’t dIsappoInt.
Here’s GTA In 1999 on the Gameboy Color – AgaIn, at the tIme thIs game was great, provIdIng consumers wIth Improved graphIcs and gameplay.
FInally GTA III, the Improvement In graphIcs and gameplay Is sImply sensatIonal and to thInk sInce the release of GTA III the GTA serIes has contInued to progress and Improve and we felt that these 3 examples wIll Illustrate how ImpressIve GTA V (5) Is goIng to be and how far the franchIse has progressed In just 15 years.
The game Is expected to be released cross-platform towards the end of 2012 or at the very latest, the begInnIng of 2013.
