2. The Multiplayer

As if the single player campaign won’t be vast and immersive enough, GTA online will feature over 500 missions, some of which can be completed solo but others which are more complicated and will require you to buddy up.

You will also be able to:

– Rob a bank/liquor store with your friends and then turn on them when it comes to dividing up the money. Obviously, your friends may not take that very well and will chase you around the whole map to get what they’re owed.

– Race other players by dropping a pin on the map and letting everyone know you’ve set up a track.

– Play golf and tennis and other mini-games that are way less stressful than robbing banks and stealing planes.

– Visit a strip club but make sure you don’t touch the girls when the bouncers are looking. If you keep breaking the rules they’ll break your face and throw you out. There’s even a “make it rain” button.

– Get stoned off virtual weed as you jam with other players on your couch in your in-game flat watching specially produced in-game TV.

– You’ll be able to go to the movies with up to 16 other players. Rockstar haven’t released much info on this but it definitely sounds intriguing.

– You’ll want to stick all your money in the bank and draw from an ATM whenever you need it, because Los Santos isn’t the safest place to be walking around with thousands in cash in your pocket.

– Create-a-mission means you’ll have a whole bunch of editing tools to create your own mission scenarios in case 500 in-built ones aren’t enough for you.
