Sorry folks, but thems the rules.

Yep, most people got to see them anyway. We're both just doing our job !

My God, this game is going to be f***ing glorious!!

And we still have the multiplayer info to come yet.

So what does everyone think about the 3 protagonists? I like the fact that they go about their business when you're not controlling them, who knows where they'll be when you switch to them!!

i'll take a pm too if possible

Quick little summary.

General Information:

• There are 3 playable main characters. Their names are Trevor, Franklin and Michael.

• You can switch between them at any point when not on a mission. When you switch, the camera zooms out into the sky and then back down to the character you switched to.

• Each one has its own personality, motivations and skillset. When you're not controlling them, their lifes continue and you may be surprised to see what situations they find themselves in when you switch back.

• Some characters from GTAIV will make an appearance in V. Niko won't be one of them.

• No celeb voices

Features:

• You can flip off other characters in the game, and see interesting results dependent on who you're flipping off.

• Vehicle physics have been updated. "The cars hold to the ground a bit better". It now feels more like a racing game, compared to GTA IV where they felt "big and boatlike".

• After a hiatus in GTAIV, Ammu-Nation is back!

• A lot of new side activities, including yoga, jet sking, base-jumping, tennis and golfing on a full golf course!

• Rockstar felt that dating wouldn't fit in this game and have stripped this feature.

Character Profiles:

Michael

• Michael is a retired FBI agent, currently in the witness protection program.

• Lives in a mansion in Rockford Hills (based on real-life Beverly Hills.

• Married to wife Amanda, and has a teenage daughter named Tracy and teenage son Jimmy.

Trevor

• The white bald character.

• Lives in a trailer in Blaine County (desert).

Franklin

• In the demo, he was driving around Vespucci Beach in his 9F (equivalent to Audio R8).

Michael is a retired FBI agent, currently in the witness protection program.

Thanks for the summary but Michael is a retired bank robber who made a deal with the FIB.

Getting it all from here

Thanks for putting the effort in but id recommend reading the article yourself. That website your taking your info from has numerous mistakes.

Hmm, a little dodgy on this. I cant see any complete random acts from the other characters when you're not them. It's probably a set few actions that they do when not being played. I assume you'll have to play them too, so if you really dont like one, I doubt you can just skip his missions and continue playing as the one you do like. Keep on seeing on other forums "If you don't like it, just play as one and continue on". There's no chance Rockstar will have implemented this and allow people to not play as them

Have to say I am kind of disappointed you cant buy property.
