They tend to present these vast game worlds that look very pretty but are completely devoid of any gameplay, which is why I'm not excited in the slightest about GTA5.
I want city-sized playgrounds in which I can build up a criminal empire (you know; GAMEPLAY) not city sized backdrops for a wannabe director/writer's stab at storytelling (Like L.A.Noir).

It's got levels and it's very shooty and stuff. But it does have the bad movie vibe going on. But I can't make my mind up about that aspect of it.
I saw a trailer for it at the cinema in between trailers for movies, and I couldn't decide whether it looked more like a great game or a terrible movie. Which is a shame because I shouldn't have to make that comparison. Games aren't movies. So they should't be advertised as such.
