    Who picked it up? I got my copy on PS4 but haven't played it yet. I won't be able to for another 2 weeks.

    The re-release is GOAT apparently, it has (or had) the highest Metacritic score for a video game ever.

    What are some major differences from the ps3 version?
    Are there new missions? online Heists?

    I haven't really played it too much so far...about an hour. But graphics are way better, more songs and there's supposed to be more missions

    So is the consensus that the next gen version is worth getting then? I'm contemplating picking it up on PS4.

    I like it...if you don't mind playing it again, the new graphics and other changes made it worth getting for me. Plus I'm a big fan of online so I'm hoping that will pick up

    Do you happen to know how much extra content Rockstar added to the NG versions?

    honestly I haven't played enough but check out this link: http://www.ign.com/wikis/gta-5/GTA_5_Xbox_One,_PS4_and_PC_Differences

    One cool thing I noticed is when you're wanted by the cops on PS4 your controller blinks red and blue and cell phone calls come through your controller. All of the ringing and audio for calls is through the controller

    How's the online? I heard it had problems on the last-gen versions, and I never even tried it.

    Traded in some old games (including GTAV last-gen version) and ended up getting this for nothing.

    First person mode is definitely cool as f---, and the peyote hallucinations are mildly entertaining (you can find random peyote plants and they turn you into one of many animals). Draw distance is better, resolution is better, more traffic + variety, increased peds, if you call someone to hangout sometimes they'll come to you instead of you having to get them, neon kits on cars, new skins for weapons, a few new cars (as well as all the DLC cars, which spawn in traffic now), etc etc.

    It's more than just a port. I wouldn't pay full price for it tbh, but it's the definitive version.

    Got it the first night, and went straight to online to find myself alone in every world I entered. The next day I couldnt even get online. The day after I was able to get on, and it was fun. Rolled around with @skitershady for a bit. Harder to lose the cops with all the traffic. Was going down an alley when a big moving truck just backed up into me. Was pretty great.
    I do find myself on foot and trying to summon my 'Destiny' speeder bike :'(

    I imagine for most Americans GTA is kind of like reliving your real life on the screen.

    I have had so much fun with this game. 4 of my co workers play it with me. I havent seen any of you guys online. Some of the custom games are fun as s---. I played this punching versus game it was hilarious

    Is this actually worth getting if you already played a good amount of the last gen version?
