:I don't believe that is correct. For a start, we've only seen 2 trailers, and the journalists have only seen a mission or two. They won't give away the overall plot at all this early. All we know is the 3 guys become friends and start doing heists together.

:Secondly, Rockstar have said that [[Trevor Phillips]], who is an absolute nutcase psychopathic criminal, will play the part of an antagonist to some extent. It will be interesting to see how these characters play off each other - particularly when we will know things that the other protagonists don't. We might even have an endgame where the player has to choose which character 'wins' the game!

:Don't expect a really simple stop-the-bad-guy plot, not even a single-twist plot like the corrupt police of SA or the backstabbing of [[Big Smoke]] or [[Dimitri Rascalov|Dimitri]] - expect something complex and interwoven on a scale we've never seen in a GTA game. Seriously. Knowing how much attention Rockstar are putting into the storyline (just as much as on the city), I can promise you they will NOT miss out anything as vital as an antagonist, and the storyline will be epic.

The GTA V page says "one of the protagonists will be the antagonist" but since we know that Rockstar have said that Trevor would be the antagonist, shouldn't his name be added to that paragraph? -[[User:IanPhoenix|Ian Phoenix]] ([[User talk:IanPhoenix|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/IanPhoenix|edits]]) 17:11, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Where did Rockstar say that Trevor is the antagonist? If this true, could someone please show me a link where Rockstar has stated this? [[User:DwayneBellic|DwayneBellic]] ([[User talk:DwayneBellic|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/DwayneBellic|edits]]) 23:23, 10 May 2013 (BST)
:The quote is here in the [http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/10/arts/video-games/q-and-a-rockstars-dan-houser-on-grand-theft-auto-v.html?pagewanted=all&_r=2& New York Times] where [[Dan Houser]] says the following:
{{quote|Just at the conceptual level, the idea was three separate stories that you play in one game. The next bit was, let’s not have the stories intersect once or twice but have them completely interwoven. It felt like it was going to be a real narrative strength: you get to play the protagonist and the antagonist in the same story.}}
:So to be clear - there is no official source or quote stating Trevor is an antagonist, but that at least one of them will plan an antagonist role. And to be clearer, 'antagonist' does not mean 'bad guy', it just means making life difficult for the protagonist/hero. I personally expect that Trevor would draw Michael back into a life of crime, and that would be the first part of the story. However no doubt it will get a lot more complex than that, so we should not second-guess what I know will be an awesome story. [[User:Gboyers|gboyers]] <sup>[[User_talk:Gboyers|talk]]</sup> 02:45, 11 May 2013 (BST)
I see, so being the antagonist doesn't really mean you're the bad guy. Meaning that based on that definition, it's makes sense for Trevor to be the antagonist because of his explosive personality. Thanks for putting things in perspective. Also, the Game Informer magazine already made it clear that Michael is drawn back into a life of crime because he's running out of money, not because of Trevor.[[User:DwayneBellic|DwayneBellic]] ([[User talk:DwayneBellic|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/DwayneBellic|edits]]) 04:00, 11 May 2013 (BST)

==Strip clubs==
Someone with editing ability on this article might want to add that the April 2013 trailers appear to confirm that strip clubs will be making a return in GTA V. [[User:23skidoo|23skidoo]] ([[User talk:23skidoo|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/23skidoo|edits]]) 05:41, 17 May 2013 (BST)
:Done. '''[[User:IanPhoenix|Ian Phoenix]]<sup>''[[User talk:IanPhoenix|talk]]''</sup>''' 18:53, 17 May 2013 (BST)
== PC platform in the infobox ==
It needs to be removed until Rockstar announces that there ''will be'' a PC version. I get that the PC side of the GTA community wants to play and mod GTA V and I feel for them, I really do, but as it stands the game appears to be going the same console exclusive route that ''Red Dead Redemption'' did and this needs to be accepted. [[User:Ghost Leader|Ghost Leader]] ([[User talk:Ghost Leader|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Ghost Leader|edits]]) 07:41, 20 May 2013 (BST)
:Actually, Rockstar has said that "everything is up for consideration", referring to PC and possibly even Wii U. Right now, however, the focus is to get the game ready for the confirmed platforms. This is also consistent with the history of the series, which has always seen console versions released before PC versions. I think it's fine to keep PC in there for now (as long as it's clearly marked as TBC), until we have a solid reason to believe that there won't be a PC version. '''[[User:JFletcher|JFletcher]]<sup>''[[User talk:JFletcher|Talk]]''</sup>''' <small>(formerly User:Biggest gta fan ever)</small> 02:16, 21 May 2013 (BST)
:JFletcher pretty much summed up my thoughts as well, but I just wanted to add the mention that there is a bar on the top of the page that says the game is unreleased and some information may be speculation, and the PC version is at this point the part that's the most speculation, as the majority of the information we're getting is coming straight from Rockstar. '''[[User:IanPhoenix|Ian Phoenix]]<sup>''[[User talk:IanPhoenix|talk]]''</sup>''' 02:39, 21 May 2013 (BST)
::It's the ''only'' bit of speculation on the page. One could add every console dating back to the Magnavox Odyssey to the list using "everything is up for consideration" as their justification, even though all three of us know GTA V won't be on any of those platforms. I have no qualms with speculation on a PC version being on the page, but the infobox should be kept for confirmed information. I think it would be better to leave PC and Wii-U out of the infobox for right now and amend the last sentence of the opening paragraph to say, "PC and Wii-U versions have not yet been confirmed, but are under consideration by Rockstar", with a link to wherever JFletcher read this "everything is up for consideration" quote tacked on as a confirmation source.

== Starting protagonist ==
I don't want to post anything yet as this is just speculation, but based on the Official Trailer, it seems logical that only [[Franklin]] is available to start the game, then [[Trevor Phillips|Trevor]] shortly after, followed lastly by [[Michael]]. Thoughts? '''[[User:IanPhoenix|Ian Phoenix]]<sup>''[[User talk:IanPhoenix|talk]]''</sup>''' 19:16, 29 August 2013 (BST)
:I had the idea that Michael would be the first protagonist. That would be logical since the first trailer was focusing on him and his backstory ("Why did I move here? I guess it was the weather."). Besides, Michael was also the first one to be presented in the three protagonist trailers. What makes you say Franklin would be first?--[[User:Loadingue|Loadingue]] ([[User talk:Loadingue|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Loadingue|edits]]) 19:49, 29 August 2013 (BST)
::The fact that Michael wasn't completely sure about the idea of going back to the life of crime is clearly in play here, but that could also be the reason he is used first, and that Trevor and Franklin come up later. After more thought, the scenes with Trevor encouraging him to get back into it, could be the first, if not within the first few missions, and pass kinda quickly. As far as the quote in first trailer, I don't think that is really part of the game unless it's the opening cutscene. A lot of lines in trailers aren't used in the actual game. But Rockstar do like to surprise us so I wouldn't really count on any one protagonist being the first available. It could be any of them.

== Wrong name Trevor Philips ==
As per the game, Trevor has one L in his surname, but the article spells it as "Phillips" with two Ls. [[User:SimonG|SimonG]] ([[User talk:SimonG|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/SimonG|edits]]) 18:46, 17 September 2013 (BST)
== GTA V Cut Content ==
Some people in [http://gtaforums.com/topic/678397-the-gta-v-beta-hunt/| this GTAForums thread] are doing a good job digging in the game files and finding proof about a lot of cut content from the game. I posted our wiki there and invited these guys to come over and share their finds. The other wiki is treating them as vandals. I say, let's not repeat their mistake.
Just thought I should leave this here. ;)
