GTA 5 is now the best selling video game of all time.

[Malik1time]

I played it for the first time last summer.

It was definitely fun and worth the play through if you can, but putting it above GTA V like others do....nah son. Story was better but that was about it.

I think my personal opinion of it might be a little more jaded than others because I played it after playing GTA IV and V.

will cop this weekend

Racism

Racism in GTA V comes generally in the form of how white pedestrians react to different things that Franklin does. For example, there are countless videos on internet showing police officers attacking Franklin for no apparent reason, including when he just happens to be standing near them. This may be due to his ethnicity and skin color.

It must be noted that Rockstar denied any claims of racist behaviour in GTA V, when players claimed the police were more aggressive and/or responsive to Franklin than any other protagonist in the game. They claimed that This is absolutely false, the in-game police don't treat one lead character any differently from the others[1]

Also, when roaming around rural areas with Franklin and Trevor, two or three quads appear along the player. Then the people on quads start to taunt the protagonist, depending of the choice. For Franklin, the taunts are about him being black, and for Trevor, for being a Canadian. After few taunts are said, they begin to shoot the protagonist, killing him.

Test
Players did tests at the different stations around the state. It is a well-known fact that rural Americans, who are Caucasian, tend to dislike African-Americans more than city folk, who would just be used to living side by side them. The tests involved Franklin standing near the police and saying something to them five times at every station in the game. The reactions were then put into a table. The player then did the same with Michael and Trevor, to compare the reactions to African-American Franklin with Caucasian Michael and Trevor. The results showed that the police reacted aggressively to Franklin more times than they did with Michael and Trevor, mostly at the Davis sheriff Impound. This ranged from pointing at him with a gun and arresting him to point blank shooting him, whereas Michael and Trevor were usually just acknowledged with little reply. Another thing to note is, that the police in the rural police stations reacted more aggressively to Franklin than the ones in the city.

It can be concluded that Franklin gains more wanted levels on average due to his significantly more superior Special Ability, as well as the ability to throw the ball, exclusive to him, which has the same melee properties as other thrown weapons, thus gaining a wanted level in strange circumstances.

Trivia

• Police dialogue when chasing Franklin is known to include some racism, such as one who says I will lynch you!
