Grand Theft Auto V makes $500 million on release in 24 hours... Wow. Nearly as shocking was it cost $170 million to make... Bring back Kevin Toms, who coded Football Manager on the Spectrum in his bedroom....

Well it's a hell of a game, even for some of us middle aged men. I bought a copy for my son yesterday and found myself playing for hours. I already love Trevor. I think the game combines every great aspect of San Andreas and Red Dead Redemption. You literally can't stop playing and the map is ridiculous. The salt lake alone is bigger than the entire world in RDR.

The game is unlike anything I've ever seen. The map is indeed ridiculous. You can literally find yourself just exploring for hours, and do nothing else. So far, one of the best games I've ever played. Rockstar are really the best video game developer out there, at least as far as creating open worlds, and writing compelling characters. Plus, the satire aspect of the game makes it much more than the mindless, over the top violent fun many think it is.

I'll have to get this I think. I used to play the first two in the series. They've done over $1 billion in sales already.
