tom_p1980 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) I wouldn't trust anything The Scum says about anything, all they are good at is taking barely 18 year old models and having them get their tits out and ask these models to offer an opinion on the topic of the day. If the Scum says it's takes an hour, it really takes about 25 mins. Unless of course they've hacked the phones of the Housers and Rockstar offices and got that info from there, which really wouldn't surprise me either. In about 3 weeks time they will be calling for it to be banned because of the x amount of teen deaths that they at The Scum will attribute to the game, using flimsy evidence based on gossip and hearsay, and passed off as fact.

ryuclan Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 The map takes a good hour to drive around.... English isnt my native lang. Is that an expression? It's grammatically correct, but factually wrong. He also says that that is while driving 100mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FranklinDeRoosevelt Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Well the 49 sq mile map is TRUE. So who knows how long it will take to drive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apex. Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I would imagine the whole 'good hour' thing is complete bullsh*t and they just sort of guessed. The Sun are known to just spew complete and utter bullsh*t and not really care about it. However of course I could be wrong, and it may take an hour to drive from one end to the other, for once I hope The Sun is right about something.

The__Phoenix Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Hyperbole much. But yeah it´s The Sun, a newspaper aimed at ignorant British rednecks, what else can you expect? f*cking moronic sh*t and loads of rubbish, that´s it. I wouldn´t even wipe my ass with that paper. You´re setting yourself up for disappointment if you believe them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoochie_Boochies Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Brit game? Really? GTA is pretty much a british parody of American culture and mannerisms, but the game uses mainly American voice actors, and Rockstar has offices in America, but their headquarters is in Scotland, i believe.

ChocoFrosty Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 There is no way it takes an hour to drive around the map. I really, really feel bad for anyone who gets their hopes up for this, because they are going to set themselves up for major disappointment.

I really, really feel bad for anyone who gets their hopes up for this, because they are going to set themselves up for major disappointment. It doesn't sound that ridiculous to me that it could take that long. It is probably an overestimation, but the game does look quite large. I'm not saying i believe it, but its not impossible, but i'd rather assume it's wrong and be pleasantly suprised than assume it's true and be disappointed.

Cilogy Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Nice to see some media GTA coverage, hopefully the casual gamer will put cod down and try a real game now I doubt it, GTA isn't nearly as mindless/generic/rehashed enough for casual tastes.

MintBerryCrunch Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 The Sun? I thought they were like a Fox News newspaper for Brits; but they're previewing GTA V? I don't understand. British people explain. It's not like Fox News, it's far worse! They're bigoted, racist liars and hypocrites who openly publish softcore porn in their paper (which even little children have access to). I'd prefer Fox News any day over the Sun.

Kemo66 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 "Thousands of people around the world will queue for the midnight release of grand theft auto v for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 or PC" Lol. More detail on the soundtrack is good though. This is the sun, I'm surprised it wasn't a 4 page hate article saying how the chemical attack in Syria is because the tyrant leader once played GTA... nope... that due in The Daily Mail tomorrow (aka The Fascist Daily) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and did I fail to mention the topless page 3 girl's minimum age in their paper was changed from 16 to 18 in 2003 ONLY because the law changed. Add that one to the sh*t heap! Here's the proof. Read the history section. I'm really sorry if I'm sounding bitter and ranting on but I really f*cking despise everything this paper stands for! Any GTAV news they have is automatically INVALID as far as I'm concerned unless some other media site confirms it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M22 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) An hour to drive around the map, what a load of old sh*t, i did a test with GTA IV from the Airport to the Industrial Park and got 16 minutes driving like a civilian, so GTA V could be 30 to 40 mins to drive around the map, but no more then 45 mins.

Magic_Al Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 If you accept our scale estimate (landmass shape 20.5 square miles give or take — it is definitely not 49 square miles unless you count a lot of water around it), an imaginary road following the entire coastline would be 20-21 miles. The real route is probably longer and one wonders what kind of average speed one can maintain with traffic and turns and so on.

ROCKSTAR MANIC Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Love how everyone is thumbs up on the one hour to drive around part but fails to even read the "releases a game every few years" and various other errors. Newspapers are dead for a reason. No not really, I guess they didn't do extensive research. Good read by the way. I noticed Trevor wearing a different shirt.
