Graphics:

The graphics are very realistic. It's like looking out a window. The sunset and sunrise are really beautiful. You can see orange, blue, when the sun has already setted. When the sun starts setting you can see orange and yellow. That's what GTA’s sunset looks like. The shadows are good but kinda similar to real life. When you go outside you see a pole or a person you can see their shadow right next to them. The waves from the ocean are not really like you see in real life. it doesn't really reflect like it does in real life, but the graphics are still pretty great. If you go to the beach you will see that the waves build up then collapse on land. The textures on cars are as similar as compared to real life. When the sunlight hits the car it's not really as reflective as it is in real life. Mountains and grass are good, the textures on the mountain are not as good as real life. The grass looks realistic, the grass blades are tall like the real ones, and are green. The game can be laggy sometimes when you internet can’t not handle the game’s graphics.    

Characters:

There are three main characters in GTA one of the characters are Micheal and he is voiced by Ned Luke. Michael is a criminal. He has a lot of problems with his family because of the way he acts. Micheal becomes a criminal again because he robbed a jewelry store to give this guy money. When his wife found out that he was a criminal again she was angry at him. Micheal tries to have some father and son time with his son but he doesn't like him. Ned luke the actor of michael he is an american actor. He is 62 years old. I think they picked the right guy to voice Michael.  

Another one of the characters is Franklin. He is voiced by Shawn Fonteno. Franklin is one of the three main characters in GTA he lives in a city called Los Santos which is based off Los Angeles. Franklin is a criminal as well but before committed small crimes and worked for a dealership with his friend Lamar and has a dog named Chop. Franklin wanted to do something bigger than he already does. He became a criminal after Michael De Santa taught him how to be a criminal and that made him a successful criminal. Franklin’s voice actor Shawn Fonteo is an American actor and is a cousin of a rapper called Young Maylay. Shawn is 52 years old and was born on April 8, 1968.

The last main character is Trevor and he is voiced by Steven Ogg. Trevor used to be a successful bank robber but with a lot of problems . He founded his company which is called Trevor Philips Enterprises. Trevor’s friends Ron Jakowski and Wade Herbert are members of his organization. Trevor believed that Michael faked his death for 10 years because he wanted to retire. Now, 10 years later, when he founded out that Michael faked his death, he had a bad relationship with him. Trevor is known to have aggressive behavior. Trevor’s actor Steven Ogg is a Canadian actor. He is 46 years old and was born on November 4, 1973. He has appeared on many tv shows and movies. He has been on a popular tv show called The Walking Dead as Simon.    

 Special/Great Features:

There are alot of great features. You can customize cars the way you want them to look. You can upgrade the engine, upgrade the brakes, customize the looks, and respray them. You can also buy clothing. It’s like going into a clothing store in real life. You can fly planes, planes are personally what i like to use in GTA. There are jets, private jets, and more. There are some houses and apartments you can live in. Some of the houses are down in the regular neighborhoods, but some are up in the mountains. You can’t customize the houses, but they look cool in the background. The features that I like most are the violent action . Some parents don’t let their kids play GTA because of the violence but I think that’s the best part. 

Things I would change:

There are some places that look like you can go into but you cannot access it. I wish that they add more places that you can enter. The driving is pretty boring for me because there are far places that you have to go to. The best vehicle to use to travel across the entire map is either a helicopter or a plane. I wish that GTA would add more flying cars.  

How this game compares to competing games:

There are some games that are kinda like GTA like Call of Duty. They both have violence and driving. Here is how these two are different: GTA has third and first person but Call of Duty has only first person. They both have good graphics but the texture moves differently. For example in GTA the clothing and hair don’t really move when they move but Call of Duty does.

This is not my favorite but it isn't the worst. There are other people that enjoy this game a lot and there are some people who should try it.
