Grand Theft Auto V - PS4 Release Date

Finally we can put to bed all the rumours that have been circulating about the release date of GTA V on the PS4.

Rockstar Games is proud to announce that Grand Theft Auto V will arrive on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on November 18, 2014 with the PC version to follow January 27, 2015.

According to Rockstar, players can expect a range of additions and improvements including:   -       New weapons, vehicles and activities -       Additional wildlife -       Denser traffic -       New foliage system -       Enhanced damage and weather effects, and much more. 

If you pre order the game you will get $1,000,000 in-game bonus cash to spend across Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online (GTA$500K each for your Story Mode and for your GTA Online in-game bank accounts).

GTA Online will see an increase in player count, online play will now feature up to 30 players, chaos will reign supreme :)  Naturally, all existing gameplay upgrades and Rockstar-created content released since the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online will also be available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC with much more to come.

I’m so excited about this as it’s one hell of a game and it will look positively stunning on the PS4.

Playstation has a scheduled maintenance planned for tomorrow, Monday 25th August, however, as of the early hours of this morning many gaming servers have come under Denial of Service attacks and this has also extended to PSN.  As of now, the service appears to be down worldwide. 

According to Blizzard, several tweets were being circulated last night by the group responsible for the attacks. 

I personally thought it was just in the UK until I started to check through the net.  About 20 minutes ago a message finally came through the PSN network that it was down for maintenance.  I can only imagine that they are now busy trying to restore the servers.  Lets just hope that they can do this a lot quicker than the events of 2012 when the servers were offline for 24 days.

Forgot I had these.

Totally forgot that I had these on the PS4.  I was trying out Infamous Second Son Photo Mode.  Interesting and you can get some good results if you play around with it for long enough.  I did find the camera controls a bit clunky as far as positioning was concerned.

It would have been fantastic if Sucker Punch had designed the controls similar to the dolly cam you can use in Black Ops II, but hey, not complaining.  It's all good fun.

What about you, have you tried this out for size?
