Well, it had to be expected. Although some have managed to get into GTA Online without issue and are playing it lag-free, others are needing to wait to get into a server, with some having to hold out for over twenty minutes. Meanwhile, PlayStation 3 players don’t even have their patch.  It had seemed that the Grand Theft Auto Online launch would be relatively struggle-free, but that’s turned out not to be entirely true. Fans are stuck at the ...

You've played all the tennis, pulled off all the heists, even checked out some of the Easter eggs... now it's time to take your Grand Theft Auto experience global, with the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online.

Nintendo have released a system update for the Wii U, and it contains with it what a regularly requested features for the system. You can now use the Wii U gamepad as a TV for Wii games. This is pretty huge for those of us with a back catalogue to get through, and although you still will need to use a Wii remote, it's a step in the right direction.

It's not necessarily something you'd come across too heavily in the main story, but every thread is there to follow the mystery through to completion, to find the culprit and to find his victims, if only you have the time and energy to pull it off.

Fancy something a little bit Trials on the iOS app store, but not sure what you want? Maybe you search, only to come across Real Flying Racing Rider Hero from Li Huizhen. It seems familiar somehow. Why? Because they ripped their logo directly from Mario Kart.

Rockstar's latest Grand Theft Auto, a game some are already saying is the best title of this generation, has been knocked from its top spot on the UK sales charts in only its second week. Despite record sales, FIFA 14 has outdone its second week figures, claiming first place.

Fancy that golf course but don't want to part with a million and a half of your hard earned cash? Don't worry, internet users have found a way to have their cake and eat it to, with a glitch that allows you to buy each and every piece of property in the game... absolutely free.

Internet users everywhere are attempting to play the BAWSAQ, Grand Theft Auto V's Social Club-linked stock market. They hope to do this by buying cheap stocks in their millions, causing the value of them to go up and big profits all around.
