@Sora278 Baffling.

Why would GTA fans be crying? We're playing perhaps the best game ever made daily, and the online mode will be live tomorrow.

Why do we have any reason to be sad?

Hell, the fact that Gamespot is going out of its way on a regular basis to try to counter the hype and success of GTA V is funny and enjoyable to watch as a GTA fan.

@Blasterman4EVER Because despite the unending praise and promotion Gamepot is doing for Grand Theft Auto everyone still complains that it is not enough and "they are being mean!"

@uprentiss @Sora278 Yep anything that is not calling it the greatest game or the most perfect game ever is just unfair criticism. Really grow up.

@Sora278 @Blasterman4EVER They are not giving it praise they are trying to downplay its ability. They are being oppinionistic and unrealistic in ther views. where is a video from 100 games that does things better then saints row 4. or 50 games that does things better then sleeping dogs?

Just Cause 2 does vehicle mechanics much better than GTA5, it's a nice balance of the realistic physics in GTA4 and the dumb arcade GTA5 physics.

@TheZeroPercent It's actually amazing how some gamers treat critically acclaimed games as a sort of religion that cannot be questioned og criticized - it was the same with The Last of Us.

You cannot think that another game is better or does elements better than this game and you cannot question its story or gameplay elements - it's like the game is its own holy entity and if you don't blindly praise it then you are heathen/troll.

@TheZeroPercent best selling does not mean best. GTA 5 was pretty fun. But I would rate other games higher. Especially considering the annoying bugs GTA 5 had on release.

Okay I watched this to the end, finally gamespot is doing some reports about something else then Skyrim, and uninteresting things...CONGRATS!!!

Second 5 things done better then GTA, yep might be true.... but those 5 games all only do one of them things better...GTA does all of them at once... hmmm?

It's like saying that a Ford GT is a better car then a Rolls Royce just because Ford GT handles curves better.....

GAMESPOT is making a parody of itself I think.

I'm expecting another 10 things done Better pretty soon....

Those other 5 games don't engage the Player the same way GTA does...

either the movement feels stupid...the missions feel stupid.... or something else is off.....

you can tell all you want, and a few People (probably relatives or Close friends to gamespot stuff) will agree.... but GTA is just better when looking at the whole Picture then all of em...

And GTA vanila is better then Skyrim Vanila...

because let's face it Skyrim is a boring waste of nothingness...random generated missions that noone gives a crap about....

@robert83a2 are you sure you watched the whole thing? at no point did they say that those games are overall better games than GTA5; they even call GTA5 "the king of sandbox games" and say "the bar has been set so high by GTA5"

you're looking for criticism where none exists just because you're butthurt over a 9 out of 10

@Sword-Demon @robert83a2 It doesn't look like his comprehension level is very high does it? Not to mention the video starts with the stuff gta 5 does better then everyone. I guess it's not surprising that fans that got upset with a 9.0 (great) with an editor's choice award would be offended by the mere suggestion that any other games might do one small thing better then gta.

@lonewolf315 Yeah because you here alot of athletes say "im good but these people are better" gtfo out of here. In a competitive industry/profession you should think you are the best always if not then you are settling for second. Growing and improving has nothing to do with how good you think you are. if you are the best it takes improvement to stay that way...get your mind right

@Cell_kl I liked Sleeping Dogs but it wasn't amazing, the graphics were lacking and the combat was fun but seemed wooden at times, probably due to the shoddy animation. There's a reason why people outside of teh hardcore didn't play it.

I would've put SR2 on the list instead of SRIV. Don't get me wrong, I loved SRIV, and it was a HUGE improvement over SR3, but IV was a superhero game, like Infamous or Prototype. SR2 was a true open world crime game.

THANK YOU! GTA V looks good, but is not the only good open world series. That's why I hate the term "GTA Clone". Hopefully it dies soon, like "Doom Clone" did by 1997. I liked Saints Row better than SA and IV. Sleeping Dogs is HIGHLY underrated, and plays nothing like GTA. It's like an open world brawler.

OWG? Seriously?! I like the term FRAG; Free Roaming Action Game.

State of Decay? Never heard of it. May have to check it out.

STOP CALLING THEM OWG's. Sounds retarded!

@DrKill09 You are wrong, true crime which is sleeping dogs previous titles was cloned from gta and so was the original saints rows. they have not been original enough even to date to get away from the clone title. be smart.

@uprentiss @DrKill09 If you had any knowledge of video game history, you would know that GTA was as much a clone of older games as Sleeping Dogs or Saints Row are of GTA.

Be... less ignorant?

@Flonne_N_Etna @uprentiss @DrKill09 unfortunately i have to agree with the troll. GTA 3 was genre defining. #d sandbox games with living worlds didn't exuist before that. it's a historical game. True crime and SR awe their existence to GTA3

I liked this video. I'm always partial to a lesser game if it offers something unique that even the best doesn't offer. It can't be complete crap though. I loved how the original True Crime basically had the mechanics of four genres in one game.

I love all the people just scrounging for anything negative in this video.

It makes me think none of them even watched it, and only looked at the title.

Never once do they say, "Hey, GTA V sucks at this stuff, and these games are way better, play these instead."

Instead, they say, very clearly, "Hey, if you ever get tired of Los Santos, and feel like trying out a different sort of Open World Game that may do one or two things a bit better, try these out."

@stefa18 This isn't ill speaking you know, they're only comparing the game to others of it's kind. Also, just stop talking about GTA getting a review you didn't like. It's time the pointless rage surrounding that topic died down for good.

On a serious note, Mary Kish has an excellent voice for game narration. She reminds me of the in game voice for the racer Blur.
