Wow -- that was shockingly boring.
That gave me no joy, no excitement, no anticipation. Just modern-day LA? Yawn.

Looks fabulous.

In what way?

"Looks"
The engine does look good. The environment looks good. The trailer is pretty poor marketing though. Lazy!!

I don't see any improvement over GTA IV. Maybe I missed it.

It's nothing compared to the usual graphical step up, and we didn't see any gameplay...

Wow are you guys shitting me? ive got fucking chills. this looks AMAZING. from the looks of it, the NAILED the feel of southern cali. i think they showed just enough to confirm the location, the graphical update, and some of the returning features (like planes etc). i LOVE it.

Sure, it looks like LA. But there was nothing that made me say "I want to do THAT!"

whatd you expect? time travel? its gta. you get cars, you get planes, you get guns, you get a massive, detailed open world to rampage around. what more could you want? plus, you dont even know anything about the gameplay yet. all it shows is the environment, and some car chases. are you really going to be so quick to negatively judge? ive enjoyed every single one of rockstar's games to this date, so i trust they know what they are doing and it will be a BLAST to play through

Fun. Cool, interesting shit that I don't feel like I've done for hundreds of hours already. Especially in a first trailer. There weren't even any examples of cool GTA-style stunts, shootouts, etc. Believe me, I want to LOVE this game, but I was completely underwhelmed.

might i direct you to rewatch the initial trailer for gta IV again?

yea wow, that was intense. i see what you mean. they should have made the GTAV trailer more like the GTAIV trailer.
all sarcasm aside, there was more going on in this trailer than the first one that was released for GTAIV....

Really? I think it looks incredible. I haven't even been extremely excited about it yet but that had bits of everything in there; it opened with a Vice City vibe, then showed lots of Liberty City and even some clips of Vinewood and other various San Andreas locations.
There were some aircraft in there, including some sort of jet fighter (Hydra?), so I'm definitely expecting to be able to explore multiple regions from the past. And mountains!
If this trailer is anything to go by, the graphics look fucking sexy.

Not sure about the Vice City and Liberty City ideas. I think they are just different parts of Cali. There were fields from Northern Cali, beach areas, city areas, the mountains, windmills, etc.
It looks like its going to be San Andreas with new graphics and a MASSIVE area to play in.

Sounds good. I just hope they take a new approach with multiplayer (or leave it out completely).

I think it would be awesome if they went in a direction like Red Dead Redemptions multiplayer. A "Free Roam" where you can wander around the city with several other people. You can all screw around or you can do different events. Gang Hideouts would still work, as well as the different game modes and co-op missions like RDR. The Hunting Grounds are the only modes that wouldn't work in GTA but they could be replaced with something involving races or car chases or something I'd imagine.

Correct.

Indeed it was. It also cuts off at 1:06 for me.

I get cut off at 1:01 :/

You didn't miss anything. Driving. Helicopters. Some guys with guns. Even the music was just so... nothing.
-1
The city looks amazing! And the music is a 1960's classic, don't go dissing. It's the first trailer and it looks great.

Still reckon you're going to buy it though.

I guess the OP has never seen the lead up in game trailers for Rockstar Games. Same thing happened with GTA 4. First trailers were pretty vague, city shots, then they got better and better.
I can't wait for the next trailer.

I SAW A FIGHTER JET! YOUR ARGUMENT IS INVALID!
