Re: Soapbox: Why Grand Theft Auto V Isn't For Me

I'd definitely go for Zelda over GTA any day. But there's a bit of desperation to this article, that's for sure "Don't play this new iteration of a hugely popular franchise, play this nintendo remake instead.". Lol, sorry but I'm not buying a Wii U just for bloom lighting.
And the sexist suggestions are just ridiculous. It's a game about criminals for god's sake. Are there plenty of strong women with admirable roles in the criminal classes then? And also, if you're gonna license yourself to pass judgement on the ideas in a game, it's a bit worrying to criticise the role of women but say nothing of the fact that you get to murder thousands of people. A rather worrying set of priorities.
(btw I think you meant commercial failure of chinatown wars, not critical failure)
