Part of the reason for the length of the race was because I sat and waited for you for a couple minutes. Then I realized that the race would take forever and I kept going. Still took me like five minutes to finish after that though, and I had been driving for like, 3 minutes before I stopped.

I don't even remember what you were driving, but it still hilariously destroyed my lawnmower, despite how slow what you were driving was. The race was in like slow motion. Turning on a major road? Yeah, not very difficult. At all.

...I learned my lesson after that experimentation :P. And if I do it again, I'll pick better utility vehicles (If there were any), because that might be entertaining :P

I think it was a scooter or something. Would have been interesting to see who would have won if we both had used those. :p

A really damn slow scooter. At least the scooter I shifted to with Trevor could keep up with traffic....

Until that mission, I didn't even know you could freaking use a lawnmower. I had seen them before at the golf course (I think) in singleplayer, but I didn't realize you could actually ride the damned things.

I was here about a week ago explaining why I dislike gta5, and I have decided -
If I was just allowed to purchase and own a Ripley, I will take back everything bad I said about this game.

It was my favorite vehicle in gta4 for its large, destructive nature and excellent handling. So now I just have a relationship with it. But they're so fucking hard to find while online.

Next Gen and PC versions of Grand Theft Auto V have been announced for later this year.

The reveal came as a major part of Sony's E3 Press Conference, where it revealed that saves from PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game will be transferable to the next gen versions of Rockstar's crime epic.

So what happens with those that have it on 360? Is it going to be substantially better to get it on One than it is sticking with 360?

If MS can transfer your game score over from 360 to one, one can think Rockstar can find away to do so

Grand Theft Auto V will take full advantage of the power of the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC with across-the-board graphical and technical improvements to deliver a stunning new level of detail. Increased draw distances, finer texture details, denser traffic, and enhanced resolutions all work together to bring new life to the cities, towns, deserts and oceans of Rockstar North’s epic reimagining of Southern California.

Switch between the interconnected lives of Michael, Trevor and Franklin as they embark on a series of heists across Los Santos and Blaine County in the biggest, deepest and richest open world experience yet, with game world enhancements that include new wildlife, upgraded weather and damage effects, and an array of new details to discover.

The new generation upgrades also extend to Grand Theft Auto Online, an ever-evolving Grand Theft Auto universe. Rise through the criminal ranks by banding together to complete Jobs for cash, purchase properties, vehicles and character upgrades, compete in traditional competitive modes, or create your own content to play and share with the Grand Theft Auto community.

All new content and gameplay created since the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online, including an extensive array of new Jobs, an arsenal of new weapons, scores of new vehicles, new properties and player customizations will also be available for the PlayStation 4 system, Xbox One and PC with much more to come. In addition, the current community of players will have the ability to transfer their Grand Theft Auto Online characters and progression to their choice of PlayStation 4, Xbox One or PC.


Basically new stuff and improved graphics. I'd say it's worth buying on next gen (or PC). I know I'm am certainly going to buy it on PS4 (and maybe PC at some point).

It does, even to PC apparently.
EDIT: Wait, might have misread it.
EDIT 2: It does. Says it in the first article I quoted.

Though it doesn't appear that they've answered that question specifically, I don't see why you couldn't.

If you can carry over characters from, say, PS3 to PC, then I might go for it. But I'm not buying a new-gen console and my current characters have the Valentine's goodies on them.

Meh. I don't particularly feel like spending $60 for the game again just to upgrade it so it's nicer...

Though with The Last of Us, you could get a deal on it if you were upgrading from the old console. But still, I'm not all that into spending $60 to a game company twice just to play an upgraded version a year later...

So...Did I hear that you can copy your Xbox 360 saves over to the Playstation 4 version? Because if so, that's pretty funny.
