    How did the protagonist seem? Were they as likable as CJ, Tommy Vercetti or even a Niko Bellic?


    I'm hoping this game has some Breaking Bad levels of intensity and writing because each Rstar game has been influenced by movies and tv shows so far.



    Edit: Listening to you guys describe Michael I can see that it does have that AMC tv show quality. I love well written characters in crime stories, I hope the actual game is good but who am I kidding of course it is. Its Rockstar.

    no pc = no buy, the pc version of 4 was so much better that me and my friends can not even play the 360 version anymore because it is so boring

    I would be surprised if GTAV didn't have a PC version months after the console versions come out.
