Franklin and his close friend Lamar Davis also have a dog named Chop, that we can play as too in a mission. The stories of Franklin, Trevor and Michael are intertwined, and we can change how the story ends with our decisions. The other character we can control in the game is Franklin Clinton, a member of Chamberlain Gangster Families.

Switching between Michael and Trevor, we fight the police, and the game kicks off, sending us to Los Santos, to never leave again. As the game progresses, we steal some good cash, only to be rounded up by cops as we leave the building. Then, the game tells us to switch to Trevor Philips (a sort of a freak) to shoot this security guard in the head. When playing as Michael, we are apprehended by security personnel, who holds us at gunpoint. This was revolutionary when it was first launched. Starting off in a very dramatic heist scene in the fictional city of Ludendorff, North Yankton, the game teaches us how to switch between characters during active gameplay.

Now, we are going through a pandemic-riddled 2020, but the weather of Los Santos, its ghettos and crime still intrigue us, awaiting the game to be released on a newer generation of consoles. Yes, the weather is usually nice in Los Santos, a replica of real-life Los Angeles.

” said Michael De Santa, the game’s main protagonist, in the first moments of the trailer. “Why did I come here? I guess it was the weather. Quickly unlocking my iPhone 4, I started watching the video, just the first few seconds enough to reel me in. I was studying at my university’s library when I suddenly remembered that Rockstar would reveal Grand Theft Auto 5 on its website.
