Sharks! New Grand Theft Auto V Screens Sink Their Teeth In
Written Monday, December 24, 2012 By Lee Bradley
View author's profile

Rockstar has released five new screens for Grand Theft Auto V, teasing some interesting new (potential) gameplay elements.

There's gonna be sharks! Big, fat, teeth-filled sharks. In fact there's gonna be scuba diving and what we guess is a remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV) too, which will add a whole new element to the game. Other than swimming and driving boats, I don't remember there being too many exciting water-based gameplay elements in GTA IV. Judging by these shots, that's all about to change baby.

Of note elsewhere, is a new screen of a fighter accompanying what looks like a jumbo jet, suggesting there's going to be some kind of mid-air escort missions going on. But enough chatter from me, have a look at the screens below.

Grand Theft Auto V is out in Spring 2013.

Sharks scare me in Far Cry 3, now they will scare me in this too. Yay.... Also that shark looks over weight.

This will easily be GOTY!

I'm only down with the sharks if I get a mini-game where I get to play as one. With the objective being to eat as many swimmers as possible.

I became terrified of sharks and underwater levels in video games after playing Tomb Raider on the first Playstation!

Screens look incredible though.

All those people saying this will be GOTY don't be silly, of course it's gonna be. That shark looks killer. I think there's a shark in the last picture aswell. You can see a shark fin I think it is to the left a bit.

These look awesome... but this generation of xbox surely won't be able to run it smoothly, it struggled to do GTA4 at times. I wish they'd made this a launch title for the new console!! Feels like a wasted opportunity. GTA5, Project C.A.R.S and Battlefield 4. 3 ideal launch games.

What is the deal with people claiming something as their GOTY before they've even played it? It's like they've never been brutally disappointed before.

Anyway hopefully Rockstar unveil The Black Guy's personality soon because Trailer #2 didn't do much for him.

Fat shark?

By the looks of it its a Bull Shark, and if I'm right there is probably a joke about Bull Shark Testosterone from GTA 4 somewhere in the game.

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah finally they bought sharks to us for hunting them down and VS. them lol

I loved some sharks in some games like Far Cry 3, Batman: Arkham City, Endless Ocean series, JAWS Unleashed, Scarface: The Game, original Tomb Raider, Banjo-Kazooie, Tomb Raider: Underworld and Crysis. I had played them all and remember those got sharks in it. I knew JAWS Unleashed is all about you played as Giant Great White Shark. I wish new developer bring JAWS Unleashed 2 or new IP game for all about you play as shark will be hell great. Look forward GTA V so much and much. One of top anticipated of 2013's games. :) :)

@612 PETA should more concerned with Far Cry 3. You can kill innocent turtles. I had no issue gunning down human beings, but felt so horrible the one and only time I killed a turtle just to see how much it's "hide" would get me in cash. But fuck those komodo dragons. I blast the shit out of them the second I see them.

This is the first time in many, many years that I've debated purchasing a GTA game or not; every other one has been a day one purchase for me. I'm just not crazy about playing as three characters whatsoever, but maybe it won't be so bad once I see gameplay of it before release.

#17 There more and lots then 1 open world game in 2013. Like Leo City for Wii U, there will be some RPG games for open world in later time in 2013. I believe next Fallout will be confirm in E3 2013 by Bethesda. So no GTA V is not only game for open world in 2013 lol

Shark isn't fat it was just screen grabbed at an angle, you are seeing the bottom and the side combined, which is why it looks fatter. This is obvious when you look at the fins and the ones on the back side are longer and the ones closer are short.
