My lawyers are actually studying that contract to make certain that I have a clear title to remake my picture, and I will remake Grand Theft Auto.' Common elements Gameplay Each game in this series allows the player to take on the role of a criminal in the big city, typically an individual who plans to rise through the ranks of through the course of the game.
The player is given various missions by kingpins and major idols in the city underworld which must be completed to progress through the storyline. Assassinations and other are featured regularly.
Occasionally driving, or learning to fly and are also involved in the game. In later titles, notably those released after, the player is given a more developed storyline in which they are forced to overcome an unfortunate event (e.g., being betrayed and left for dead), which serves as motivation for the character to advance up the criminal ladder and ultimately leads to the triumph of the character by the end of the storyline. The Grand Theft Auto series belongs to a genre of free-roaming role-playing video games called games, and grants a large amount of freedom to the player.
Traditional action games are structured as a single track series of levels with, but in Grand Theft Auto the player can determine the missions that they want to undertake, and their relationship with various characters are changed based on these choices. Influenced by the earlier game, the cities of the games can be roamed freely at any point in the game, and are examples of video game environments which offer accessible buildings with minor missions in addition to the main storyline. There are exceptions: missions follow a linear, overarching plot. These missions are required to complete in order to unlock new areas in the game. Grand Theft Auto III and subsequent games have more voice acting and radio stations, which simulate driving to music with disc jockeys, radio personalities, and American culture.
The use of vehicles in an explorable urban environment provides a basic simulation of a working city, complete with pedestrians who generally obey traffic signals. Further details are used to flesh out an open-ended atmosphere that has been used in several other games, such as, which has less emphasis on crime or violence, and, which reverses the roles of police officer and criminal, although the player goes undercover in gangs for a portion of the game. Criminal activities in Grand Theft Auto games do not go unnoticed by the police. As the player engages in these in-game illegal activities, they may gain a 'wanted level', represented by a maximum of five or six stars. A small crime, such as running over a, may create a one star wanted level situation, while shooting an officer may earn more stars. As the number of stars increase, the amount and strength of the response will increase; a single star might have a few police cars chase after the player, while at 5 or 6 stars, tanks and attack helicopters will chase down the player. Many in-game missions will automatically give the player a wanted level after completing a certain event which they must then get rid of before the mission is complete.
Often, trying to keep away from the police while wanted will cause the player to gain even higher wanted levels. The player can remove their character's wanted level by avoiding detection or spending in-game money at specific locations to elude the police (such as a mod shop to repaint their car).
Alternatively, if the player-character dies, they will at a hospital and the wanted level will be removed, though the player may lose money, guns, and other benefits they had before being chased. The 'wanted level' gameplay concept has become common in other GTA Clones and similar open world games.
Setting The Grand Theft Auto series is set in a fictional version of the world, in a number of different time periods. The original introduced three main cities: Liberty City, based upon, Vice City, based upon, and San Andreas, based upon mostly parts of. In the first Grand Theft Auto game, San Andreas was based on San Francisco and parts of Las Vegas. Expansion packs later set the game in London. The second entry in the franchise, set the game in the future in a locale named 'Anywhere City'. Subsequent games in the series have re-imagined and expanded upon the original locales.
Is set in a different rendition of Liberty City only loosely based on New York City. A revised Vice City and San Andreas are depicted in and, respectively, the latter of which takes the form of an entire state, instead of a single city. The state of San Andreas is based on the states of and, and consists of three major cities: Los Santos , San Fierro , and Las Venturas. Surrounding towns and areas of desert, water, woodland, and countryside lie between the three cities. The GTA III rendition of Liberty City is also briefly featured during one mission. And, originally released for handheld console and later re-issued for other consoles, are set in the previous depictions of their respective cities, but in different decades. The maps for the two cities remain the same, with some differences in terms of buildings and geography to reflect the different time periods.
And its subsequent expansion packs and are set in a third revision of Liberty City, set in 2008, which is a closer analogue to New York City and its boroughs than the GTA III version. Is also set in this version of Liberty City, although the Alderney portion of the map is not present., released in 2013, is set in a revised depiction of southern San Andreas that only features Los Santos to the south and the rural Blaine County to the north. It includes revised landmarks such as the 'Vinewood' sign (instead of ), Rockford Hills (instead of ), Del Perro Pier (instead of ), Los Santos International Airport (LSX) (instead of LAX), Los Santos Golf Club (instead of.), and Galileo Observatory (instead of ). The game also features the town of Ludendorff in the fictional state of North Yankton. Los Angeles was extensively researched for Grand Theft Auto V. The team organised field research trips with tour guides and architectural historians and captured around 250,000 photos and hours of video footage during these visits. Since the release of the game, hundreds of in-game buildings have been identified as being based on real-world landmarks.
's Sam Sweet notes that, with sales of game reaching thirteen million copies, 'there will be more people living in the imaginary state of Los Santos than in the real city on which it was modelled.' In both Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto V, Los Santos and the state of San Andreas are depicted as being on an island an undetermined distance from the US mainland. In both games it is possible to circumnavigate the state by boat. Similarly, the versions of Liberty City and Alderney in Grand Theft Auto IV and expansion packs are also completely located on islands, as is Vice City. The GTA III rendition of Liberty City however, while mostly island, is connected to mainland on its Northwest corner (a region the player cannot navigate).
Only the expansion packs for the original Grand Theft Auto, and, set in, have featured a location outside the United States and used a real-life location. Voice acting The series has included a wide variety of. The original, its and its, as well as and did not feature any voice credited to specific roles. The first game in the series to do so was which, despite a limited budget and the series' low profile at the time, featured several notable actors from film and television. These included, and, who all had prominent roles. At the time it was rare for a video game to use such high-profile actors, and Grand Theft Auto III is considered a pioneer in doing so.
The next game, featured more film actors, including as the player character. Although the following title, also featured many notable film actors—such as, and —it had been decided that the use of such actors should be reduced, particularly for leading roles. As a result, many of the prominent roles in San Andreas were voiced by lower profile actors or rappers. From through to, the series has continued using lesser known actors to voice main characters, but still uses celebrities and real-life radio personalities to voice the DJs of the many radio stations featured in each game. Some games also feature celebrities portraying themselves, such as, and. Controversies According to The Guinness World Records 2008 and 2009 Gamer's Edition, it is the most controversial video game series in history, with over 4,000 articles published about it, which include accusations of violence, corrupting gamers, and connection to real life crimes.

See also: The controversies flared up again with, since the 3D graphics made the violence more realistic, and players could pay for the services of prostitutes to restore their health, and if they wished, kill them to get some of their money back. There is also criticism from the focus on illegal activities in comparison with traditional 'heroic' roles that other games offer. The main character can commit a wide variety of crimes and violent acts while dealing with only temporary consequences, including the killing of policemen and military personnel.
See also: The sixth game in the series, also came under criticism. One mission in particular, in which the player must instigate a between Haitian and Cuban gangs, has been controversial. Haitian and Cuban anti-defamation groups criticised the game. Jean-Robert Lafortune of the Haitian American Grassroots Coalition is quoted as saying that 'The game shouldn't be designed to destroy human life, it shouldn't be designed to destroy an ethnic group,' for this and similar scenarios, including lines in the game's script such as 'kill the Haitian dickheads' said by character 'Diaz' during an altercation between the player and a Haitian gang.
After the threat of a lawsuit by the Haitian-American Grassroots Coalition, Rockstar removed the word 'Haitians' from this phrase in the game's subtitles. Main article: San Andreas was criticised initially due to its 'gangster' elements, which include drugs, prostitution, and murder; but later due to the discovery of disabled interactive sex scenes, nicknamed Hot Coffee, which was a sexual that was cut from the game, but remained in the game code, which was discovered in both the console and versions of the game. Dubbed the ', the minigame allowed players to have sex with their in-game girlfriends. After the release of, managed to find the unused code in the game and released for the and (with a ) as well as a version through the use of an code enabling the player to engage in these sexual mini-games (dubbed 'Hot Coffee' in reference to a euphemism for sex used in the game). These mini-games were left partially intact in the game's code. This prompted application of an AO (Adults Only) rating to the version of the game containing the leftover code. Take-Two Interactive was forced to re-release the game in order to restore the M (Mature) rating.
A class action lawsuit against Take-Two was also filed as a result of the 'Hot Coffee' code. Grand Theft Auto IV. Main article: One of the controversies involved with this game was 's (MADD) criticism of the ability to as a new feature.
MADD had even requested to change the rating of the game from 'M' for ages seventeen and up to 'AO', for adults only, because they felt it was inappropriate for children, even at the age of seventeen, to experience drunk driving in such a manner. In the final game, drunk driving is a playable event, but it is a crime that automatically generates a wanted rating and main playable character loudly (and drunkenly) proclaims that it is a 'bad idea' and that he 'should know better'. Notably, it is impossible to drive while drunk in the GTA IV expansions, The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony.
These were released after the criticism. It is, however, possible to drive drunk again in the successor, Grand Theft Auto V. The Lost and Damned. ” Dan Houser, on the making of Chinatown Wars for the There has been some controversy over a drug dealing minigame along with comments that some Nintendo games are being aimed at children (despite the fact that the game was rated Mature).
The drug dealing mini-game allows players to peddle six types of drugs around the city, but the profit the player makes depends on market conditions, which will be based on the area in which they deal, and the level of regular service this area receives from them. Grand Theft Auto V. Main article: A segment in the latest instalment caused controversy for scenes containing player initiated torture.
The mission 'By the Book' features graphic depictions of kneecapping, electrocution, dental extraction and waterboarding, and the player is required to perform the acts in order to progress in the game. UK-based charity publicly condemned the use of torture scenes in Grand Theft Auto V.
The organisation, who works to rehabilitate survivors of torture, joined other human rights charities who were outraged at a torture scene in the game in which the players have to pull teeth and electrocute an unarmed man in order to extract information. The charity's CEO Keith Best stated: “Rockstar North has crossed a line by effectively forcing people to take on the role of a torturer and perform a series of unspeakable acts if they want to achieve success in the game.' The game has also been accused of sexism. The considered the game's satirical portrayals of women uncreative, and added that violent and sexist themes hurt the game experience.
Edge noted that while 'every female in the game exists solely to be sneered, leered or laughed at', it treated its all-male lead characters in a similar vein through their stereotyped tendencies towards violence., Rockstar Games co-founder, felt that the development team sometimes overlooked their portrayal of women in Grand Theft Auto games, but that the weight towards male characters 'fit with the story we wanted to tell'. Lawsuits Several celebrities have sued Rockstar Games and/or Take-Two Interactive for purportedly violating their or rights, including hip-hop artist, Karen Gravano of, and actress.

GTA Online is adding its first heist since the game mode launched in 2015. The Doomsday Heist is the biggest GTA Online adventure to date, and is now available to play on all consoles.
The Doomsday Heist opens with a billionaire and his advanced neural network stumbling upon clues that Los Santos is under imminent threat from an unknown country. Lester gets involved, and calls you and your pals to help save the day (and get a sweet paycheck). To start The Doomsday Heist, players must have an assembled Motorcycle Club or Organization.
Someone in the group also needs to purchase one of the underground IAA facilities, with the cheapest coming in at around GTA$1.2 Million. This facility includes an advanced planning room, something fancy apartments don’t have.
Rockstar says every mission in The Doomsday Heist can be completed with only two people, unlike other heists, or with four if you have a full group of friends online. Unlike other heists,The Doomsday Heist requires players to play through minor missions in Freeplay mode. During these missions, teams collect and steal resources from each other for later missions. When tackling these objectives, players can call in recruits from their Motorcycle Club, bringing the total number of players involved to eight.
Read More. Because the heist requires the purchase of an IAA facility, those who buy the facility will have access to the Avenger.

This experimental helicopter/cargo vehicle comes packed with turrets, optional vehicle upgrades and a weapon station that includes some new upgrades for older weapons. The Doomsday Heist also includes eight new Achievements/Trophies players earn by completing the Elite Challenge objectives for the heist missions. These typically require players to perform some hard task like hit a certain number of headshots during the mission or finishing under a certain time limit. Additionally, this update will introduce a number of new clothing and character customization options. Rockstar says there are new vehicles and weapons coming as well as the long-awaited Mammoth Thruster jetpack. There’s also a new radio station to pump some tunes, but Rockstar didn’t say what genre of music the station is, or what new artists will be featured. So what do you think?
Are you excited to get your crew together to tackle the Doomsday Heist? Do you have some work to do so you can afford one of those IAA facilities? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
