GTA V, PS4, Xbox One and Why It's Coming

  
              Possibly the biggest game to drop this year was Grand Theft Auto V, it pulled in roughly $800 million in the first day alone and rounded out the $1 billion mark just 3 days after.  Just take a second to let that sink in for a bit, that is enough to buy the Chicago Cubs or build the Real Madrid Island Resort and is more money than any movie has ever made in an openning weekend.  Clearly this game is fantastic, everyone I talk to said that they love the story, the characters; even the graphics look great considering that the hardware is eight years old.  It seems Rockstar took all the things we wished they put into GTA IV, added it to the things we already liked and topped it up with some fresh shiny features.   

                I am dying to get my hands on this game, I LOVE the Grand Theft Auto series.  The amount of time that I spend glued to the screen playing Vice City would probably make an optometrist cringe and might have something to with the thickness of my glasses, but that is beside the point.  San Andreas and GTA IV were also excellent games, so naturally I was particularly excited for the release of GTA V.  I stayed up to date (or so I thought) with the news and watched all the trailers and videos but somehow I seemed to have missed one small detail.  The fact that there was a version planned for the PS4 or Xbox One
