Should I get this on next gen?

So I've been saying this for ages but it's finally time to upgrade. I've ordered my Xbox One (I wanted a PS4 but I still have a Xbox Live subscription which makes it a bit cheaper) and am waiting for it to arrive.

 

I'm getting Fallout 4 with it and at this moment in time I am just looking for older next gen titles as that's all I can afford. I'll be getting Assassins Creed Unity for definite as I like Assasins Creed games.

 

With GTA though I''m really undecided. There's first person and better graphics, which are self explanatory. I know there's low riders but that doesn't particularly bother me.

 

Only other thing I can think of which I've heard of is freeroam events but as I haven't played them I have no idea whether they're good or not.

 

So are freeroam events good? Is there anything else which means I should get an upgraded copy? Sell it to me like you're the Houser brothers.

Also, no hackers. Glitchers sure, but they're few and far between. It's almost....calming.

Look up some gameplays on the free mode events and then see how they turn out, otherwise you're going purchase the game and try it out for yourself.

O/t but I couldn't get into unity.

Much preferred black flag

Yea, get it on Current Gen... But take a sledgehammer to your XB1 first and then go buy a PS4

I say yes, buy it used. Its pretty much all the same as on last gen with some graphic upgrades, new cars and a better working passive mode. Pretty much 70% is walking around in passive ghost mode to avoid being trolled.

I don't have a problem getting a next gen console for the better graphics and new functionality got GTAV/GTA0. The thing that is keeping me from upgrading is that I still haven't seen an announcement about the upgrade to a next gen player community. :p

Black flag was the sh*t, best in the series

Yes. Freeroam events can really spice up lobbies a lot of the time. And honestly, the difference might not be that much, but the improvement on graphics is definitely noticeable.

 

Also, it's still going to get new content updates. So there's that.

If you're upgrading to CG, I'd definitely get a copy of GTAV.

 

I have, and never looked back. Still the game that I play the most, two years on. Even bought a second copy for the other half to play too... no regrets.

Seconded.

 

Free roam events are fun but not a good means to make money so if you don't expect to get rich and just enjoy some free roam competition then you'll enjoy them.

 

This is a must have game for a new CG owner. Its just beautiful to look at some times.

Lets just be honest.. GTA V is the only reason(or at least the first reason) anyone bought a next gen console.

What about those who bought the console in 2013? Or even those who don't even play GTA?

You mean current-gen? Yeah.

 

GTA Online is the only reason why I have Playstation Plus.

Mainly played only gta lV and V on the 360.. bought the one specifically for V.

 

I play other games too, but gta is always the fallback game. :cool:

if you still enjoy gta, getting the game in newgen is not a bad idea.

That's not really relevant to this topic, but thank you for your pointless opinion.

Yes you should, if your a big GTA Online player.

 

As soon as you get it you should:

 

* Transfer your character from 360/PS3, all of your online progress, properties and vehicles will transfer across. You may also be eligible for returning player bonuses, depending if the 'offer' from Rockstar has expired yet or not:

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B1Cgov6IAAAt6H7.jpg

 

 

* Buy the vehicles exclusive to current gen - Dodo Seaplane, Imponte Duke O’Death (unlocked in a SP mission - SP only), Kraken Sub, Cheval Marshall, Dinka Blista Compact, a faster and more maneuverable Blimp, compliments of Xero Gas and others

 

 

* Buy the Rail Gun (SP only) and Hatchet

 

 

* Enjoy the extended draw distance. You'll find that you can snipe people MUCH further away, and the Lazer/Hydra cannons have a much further range as well.

 

 

* Drive around the map and enjoy the vastly improved lighting, framerate and level of detail

 

 

* Go to a well vegetated area and enjoy the vast amount of extra foliage (grass, bushes etc) added to current gen

 

 

* Enjoy the extra SP missions and challenges added to current gen - Michael's 'Murder Mystery', Franklin's 'Wildlife Photography Challenge', Stock Car Races, find Peyote Plants and 'Monkey Mosaics' (which unlocks the 'Go Go Monkey Blista' once completed)

 

 

* Enjoy up to 30 players in freemode in Online (up from 16 on 360/PS3)

 

 

* Enjoy the freemode events in Online, they are actually quite fun and their is a wide variety of challenges

 

 

* Look forward to ongoing Online DLC, which PS3/360 will no longer unfortunately receive

 

 

:)

I have a ps4 but haven't bought gta for it.

That said, if OP still plays a fair bit, it's worth getting.

Buy it again to play it in 30fps, I wouldn't if I could go back.

 

Buy it on PC, blows even the Xbox One clean out of the water.
