Grand Theft Auto V Review - Southland Sprawl
Grand Theft Auto V deserves accolades for its innovative triumvirate of antiheroes, its many and varied missions, and the sprawling depiction of Los Santos and the hillbilly outbacks. But to rip off what an erudite author once said about Oakland, there is no "there" there.
Great script and most fully structured game in the history of the GTA franchise; Los Santos has been brought to life with its incredible size; scope; and realism; Brings back the gleeful comic-book nihilism of earlier GTA games
The overwhelming Los Santos lacks a strong sense of place; Open-world play lacks the unfettered thrills of earlier games
