Copied from a fb post. Grand Theft Auto 5 Preview Summary.
Summary
Features
1)-You can buy property; houses, garages,
businesses and marinas can all be purchased for
extra revenue sources.
2)-You can pick up hitchikers, do stunt jumps and
flying challenges, take part in yoga, golf, tennis,
bike races and triathlons.
3)-iFruit, the game's new phone, can be used to
snap pictures and upload them to
Rockstar's Social Club
4)-The phone also has apps. In addition to the
camera there is internet, contacts, social media, a
calendar, and a replay missions app. There are
three more Rockstar hasn't yet revealed.
5)-A combat roll has been introduced for moving
between cover
Liquor store and ATM robberies is possible.
6)-Side missions will be making a return. One
would involve Michael in Vinewood Boulevard
racing a starlet away from the paparazzi.
7)-Citizens will react to what you do, and if they
see you robbing someone they could alert the
police, film you, or even try to take you down
themselves.
Hunting animals.
Customization
Player customization - tattoos, haircuts, clothing
Vehicle customization - paintjobs, wheels, window
tints, grills, spoilers, along with robust
performance upgrades to suspension, engine,
brakes, and more that make meaningful changes
to the way vehicles feel and handle
Weapon customization - Silencers, scopes,
extended mags, laser sights, and more
Police Encounters:
1)-The classic wanted system will be making a
return - with five stars instead of the usual six.
2)-They make the police encounters sound better,
too. In this new game, we can still try to escape
the circular zone that flashes on the mini-map
when cops come after our malcontent protagonist
(s). But, this time, we'll be able to try to hide inside
that alarm radius, if we'd like. The cops will use a
line-of-sight system, so they won't just magically
know where you are. If they have a helicopter in
the sky, they'll be able to see plenty. And you'll see
them use hand signals to communicate what
they're doing.

Skill Categories:
1)-Each character is rated in a series of skill
categories: Stamina, Shooting, Strength, Stealth,
Flying, Driving, Mechanic, Lung Capacity.
2)-Each character has a 'Special': Franklin is an
adrenalin junkie and can slow down time while
driving; Trevor has a frenzy mode, where he does
double damage, takes half damage, and has a
unique melee attack; Michael has his own version
of bullet time
3)-Specials are governed by a meter, it drains after
use and recharges slowly
Other skill categories are shared and can be
improved by completing missions, side missions,
activities and more
4)-Trevor will always be the best pilot, Franklin will
always be the best driver but each can improve
their proficiency a little
5)-One of the skill categories is stealth, suggesting
players will be able to take different approaches to
missions
Map
Similar to previous GTAs, the map isn't landlocked
(surrounded by water).
The map 3.5 times the size of Red Dead
Redemption in terms of playable area above
ground. Five times if you count underwater area.
The geographical scope is huge and spans:
Mountains
Rivers
Lakes
Military bases
Farmland
Desert
Dense urban environments...and more
An underwater ecosystem exits, "the sea is
teaming with fish and sharks"
A deer and a wildcat were spotted in the
mountains.
Treasures can be found underwater, but NPCs will
be looking for them too
Shipwrecks, sharks, hidden treasures and more
could be found underwater
The entire world is populated with fitting wildlife
and inhabitants unique to specific areas
Heists/missions
1)-'Mini heists' are used to teach the player about
preparation. Players must secure vehicles, outfits,
masks, the getaway vehicle.
2)-These build up to a bigger heist where the
execution must be flawless. They'll require the right
crew (which you can recruit) and players will have
to decide on the cheap option, which results in less
skilled people, or paying more for skilled crew
members that will take a larger cut of the money.
3)-These additional characters will be able to
specialize in different areas such as wheelman,
gunman, technician, and so on.
4)-Hiring the same crew members across several
heists (assuming they survive) will allow their skills
to improve
5)-There will be visual and audio alerts from your
other characters so you're not completely caught
off guard in case things get hairy.
6)-You can attack targets by stealth or brute force.
This will affect the content of the heist.
7)-A huge payout to split between the crew
After-action report that tallies your total cash haul,
each surviving member's cut, and any profit you
managed to earn
Refinements to combat:
1)-Weapon selection has been overhauled: You
now select your weapons from a weapon wheel.
2)-Fluidly run and gun from the hip while still
maintaining complete control of the reticule
3)-'Combat jog' that allows you to move at high
speeds with your weapon out, but not raised.
4)-Camera pulled back when zoomed in over the
shoulder to open up players' field of vision
Combat roll to move strategically from cover and
evade incoming fire
Reticule switches from white to red to identity an
enemy
Tiny 'X' flashes over the reticule when targeted
enemy is killed
Variable targeting options including free aim, soft
lock, and hard lock (similar to Max Payne 3)
Smoother transitions when moving in and out of
cover
General
1)-The character selection wheel is split into four
triangles: Franklin, Trevor, Michael, and your
multiplayer character
2)-Some boats will include gear such as wetsuit,
flippers and tanks for diving
GTAV rewards exploration, there's no signposting
underwater, so you'll have to find the treasure the
hard way
3)-Dives won't offer massive payoffs, but will "help
grease the wheels"
Pressing Down on the d-pad will drop the play in
and out of multiplayer.
There are subtle differences in the way each
character moves to reflect their personalities;
Michael is slower and deliberate.
4)-Rockstar says there will be five times as many
pedestrians in GTAV as there were in Grand Theft
Auto IV
There's a "crazy level of detail": Tourist buses can
be boarded for a tour of celebrity homes, film
posters are plastered on the walls, men in comedy
costumes try to corner you outside the Cathay
Theatre, including the Superman-like Impotent
Rage and Master Chief riff, Space Ranger.
5)-You can switch between Franklin, Trevor and
Michael during a cutscene, manually, or
automatically when the AI takes control for you
Each character has a job to do, how much you
switch yourself in or let the computer do, is
entirely up to you
If you die the game reloads to the last checkpoint,
even if two other characters are alive
Although it's up to the player when they switch,
dialogue will suggest ideal moments. For example,
when Michael and Franklin are being overwhelmed
by snipers, Michael might ask for Trevor's help.
6)-There is a wider field of vision, and players can
run-and-gun
There are some restrictions to character switching,
such as how you can't abandon a character while
you have a Wanted Level. Lose the heat first! The
character selection meter will let you know when
you can swap out.
Michael's obsession with classic films translates
into in-game set pieces based on real world
movies. In the demo the three characters mount a
heist very similar to the one from Heat.
Fun Facts:
Franklin alone has more textures than the entire
ped population of GTA: San Andreas
Largest selection of vehicles in any GTA game
Largest selection of weapons in any GTA game

gta5 pc is probably 1 year away
i know that but just imagine the config

should be similar to GTA4's spec. So current hardware should be able to easily handle it highest settings.
Rockstar made two back to back bad ports, really bad ports - Bully & GTA4.
So they might/should learn from the past & make a brilliant port. To make that easy, PS4 sports PC like spec

gta 4 had 7 patches. I hope they release bug free game rather than releasing performance patches every now and then

That'd be great. Or the cheats shouldnt work on the pirated version

^not everybody uses cheats
This kind of DRM was used in Serious Sam BFE. if it was a cracked version, then an invincible giant scorpion would spawn and kill sam, making the game unprogressable.

i admit i have played with cheats,
.

but doing it without cheats forces you to consider other, much more fun ways after you have failed in the most straightforward, most obvious route.
thats what gta4 evolved into... and gta5 is holding that up even higher

The graphics doesnt look amazingly awesome, so any current gen Gaming Rig should be able to handle it (provided it is ported properly)
