Steven Ogg, the actor who played Trevor Philips in GTA 5, has spilled some beans about the canceled GTA 5 story Dlc.
As first reported by The Loadout, Steven was recently part of a live Q&a along with his GTA 5 co-actors Shawn Fonteno aka Franklin and Ned Luke aka Michael. During the session, Luke revealed,
“Originally they were gonna do continuing stories of Michael, Franklin, and Trevor.”
To this Ogg added,
“Trevor was gonna be undercover – he works for the feds. And we did shoot some of that stuff with ‘James Bond Trevor’ – he’s still kind of a fuck up, but he’s doing his best to pretend to be like [a secret agent]. We shot some stuff and then it just disappeared and [Rockstar] never did it, they never followed up on it.”
Conversation around the Agent Trevor Dlc began last year when the intel was datamined from GTA 5’s source code.

At this rate, it looks as if a movie based on Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto is likely to become a reality before the video game series’ long-awaited sixth installment ever materializes. Having just recently celebrated its seventh birthday, GTA V continues to make money hand over fist for the title’s aforementioned creator and publisher Take-Two, not just with game sales (which somehow keep on topping the charts) but with microtransactions available in its online component.
Fans in their millions still make regular day trips to Los Santos in order to mingle with other like-minded players and partake in the mode’s cornerstone Heist content, all with the ultimate goal of making green to spend on digital life luxuries. With even more updates due to arrive before 2020 comes to an end, then, you’d be forgiven for thinking Rockstar’s priorities still very much lie with supporting GTA Online instead of delivering a sequel.

Rockstar isn’t exactly known for the use of subtlety in its games. Both of the developer’s flagship properties, Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto, go in heavy on their overt satire of American culture but, in Grand Theft Auto V‘s case especially, the unabashed studio decided to take a step back and reconsider.
While at McM Comic Con in London, voice actors Ned Luke (Michael), Shawn Fonteno (Franklin) and Steven Ogg (Trevor) collectively hosted a panel in order to answer the attending crowd’s burning questions. As part of the Q&a, Fonteno revealed that Rockstar, in editing his recordings, had to remove over 15,000 instances of the word “N***a” being used. Fans who have spent endless hours touring Los Santos will be well aware that the word remains present in-game, of course, but Fonteno notes that Rockstar’s edits were simply a result of his...

When Grand Theft Auto V first launched in September 2013, I had originally planned on picking it up right away. After all, I had been a fan of the series since 2001, and it had been 5 years since we’d seen a proper entry. As the months went on, though, I, like many others, began to think about the possibility of the title coming to the recently released Xbox One and PlayStation 4. It made sense, as plenty of publishers do the same thing, and Rockstar Games has ported previous entries in the series over to several different platforms in the past.
So, I waited. And waited, and waited, and waited for Rockstar Games to announce something. Rumors popped up for months, but it wasn’t until E3 2014 that we got an official confirmation that the title would be coming to current-gen platforms, as well as PC. Now, after 428 days of waiting, I...

2014 will see the arrival of more adventures for GTA V's trio of criminal protagonists, Rockstar has announced...
By now most GTA V players have completed the story campaign, and have well and truly dipped their toes into GTA Online. We've already had one Dlc in the form of the Beach Bum pack for the online component, but Rockstar isn't ignoring the solo experience.

"For those ready to jump back into the story of Grand Theft Auto V, we have big plans for substantial additions in 2014 continuing Michael, Franklin and Trevor's action, mayhem and unexpected adventures in Southern San Andreas," said the announcement.

A slip up at Comic Con 2013 could have spilled the beans on a possible batch of GTA V Dlc...
It's been reported on Kotaku that an accidental leak by Shawn Fonteno, the voice behind GTA V protagonist Franklin, has revealed that GTA: San Andreas' central character, Carl “C.J.” Johnson may be returning to the series, possibly in future Dlc.
At a panel at Comic Con 2013, Fonteno was asked which past GTA Protagonist he would have liked to have voiced, and he responded with San Andreas' hero, C.J. However, he then said he wasn't so disappointed he missed the chance, as he's working with C.J.'s voice actor, Young Malay on another project. He was asked to elaborate on this, but promptly changed the subject, hinting that he wasn't actually supposed to reveal that juicy bit of information.

Grand Theft Auto V is now out in the wild and hopefully, most gamers have already sunk their teeth into it. Personally, while I’ve only completed 10% of the game so far, I’m loving every minute of it. Unfortunately, not everyone is having as positive an experience with the game as I am though.
Yesterday, PS3 owners were reporting issues with installing the digital version of the game. Apparently, some gamers were receiving an error code when trying to install. Sometimes it would pop up after having already waited several hours for the game to download.
Sony has now confirmed that this issue has been resolved:
“For those of you experiencing error code 80029564 when downloading or installing GTA V please accept our apologies,” a statement read. “This is been worked on as a high priority and we hope to have it resolved this afternoon. “Please delete any GTA content...
