Character Switching – Grand Theft Auto 5

As frustrating as its constant re-releases may be for some, Grand Theft Auto 5 has more than earned its place among gaming’s greatest. The sheer attention to detail in its world; the level of realism and authenticity given to NPCs and environments; and the incredible presentation and story still make it a must-play game. It also brought about something completely new to the franchise – character switching, which allowed for changing between Michael, Franklin and Trevor at almost any time. Quick and seamless, it also played a huge role in the different heists and story missions, expanding on the gameplay opportunities involved.
