What are the benefits of open world games? You can get lost in them and run away to adventure. What awaits us around the next corner - a saving oasis, a cunning robber, a majestic castle? Unexplored corners intrigue, beckon, and invite you to go. This is exactly what attracts people in open world games - complete freedom. You set your own goals. Want to explore the nearest hill? Go ahead, what are you waiting for! Interested in a rock-cut cave? Grab the torch and go down!
However, GTA, unlike fantasy RPGs, offers a different kind of freedom. Here you choose exactly how to spend your leisure time. Yes, no one forbids you to go conquer wastelands and explore the mansions of Vinewood in the same way, but, you see, this is not as exciting as the opportunity to crash into a strip club with your own cousin. To paraphrase the heroes of the series, the USA is the land of opportunities, and Rockstar does not skimp on developing these same opportunities in their games. Los Santos and the surrounding areas are a huge testing ground for a wide variety of entertainment. Largely because of their abundance, the simulation of life turns out to be so reliable: what is life without sweet fun and self-indulgence? The editors of "Gambling" present their top ways to have fun in the new Grand Theft Auto.
Strip club, prostitutes, bars
What do they usually do with prostitutes and strippers in the GTA? If we asked Jack Thompson, the answer would be clear: first they fuck, then they kill. But let's not listen to old Jack.
In GTA 5, everything is strict with this: if you have ordered a private dance, be so kind as to behave appropriately. We, of course, understand that bare breasts can drive any man crazy, but you still shouldn’t give up - a security guard will be watching you and your “chosen one”. So everything here is like in real strip clubs: look, but don’t touch. Although, of course, you can touch it - the main thing is that security does not notice it. Be gentle (your arsenal includes affection, ostentatious throwing of banknotes and, of course, compliments), and the girl will voluntarily invite you to her home. For tea and watching movies, of course. But not everything is so simple, first you will have to spend a considerable amount of money on dancing in the VIP area (it is very, very difficult to seduce the enchantress at one time), and the guards are not to be trifled with - they almost throw you out into the street.
If you are one of those who prefer to skip courtship, you always have the opportunity to “buy” a little love. You drive up to a night butterfly, honk your horn... and it’s done, all you have to do is choose what exactly you need. There are three types of sexual caresses, and the more intimate the process, the more money they will demand from you. And if in the case of an acquaintance from a strip club they show you absolutely nothing, then during orgies with courtesans, on the contrary, through the car windows you will see all the details.
Well, if nothing works out with women, and you don’t want to contact an escort service, there is always an alternative way out - get drunk. True, if you feel sadness with someone, and not alone, for some reason the drinking process will be skipped. But no one will certainly be able to stop you from enjoying one of the main entertainments of GTA - drunk driving.
Going to the cinema and watching TV
Just as many people associate Morrowind with beautiful sunsets, GTA after the fourth part is inextricably linked with the simple joys of life. Stop pretending to be a progressive and purposeful rebel! Put on your old family boots, put on an alcoholic T-shirt and uncork a bottle of beer - isn’t it great to just lounge on the couch and, with your head turned off, watch the characters of your favorite TV show? Attention, an important feature - now you can smoke a joint or two right while watching. However, this will not happen without consequences; you will have to listen to the characteristic urges caused by Datura weed: “I’m so cool,” “I need to call my mom,” and so on.
But why sit at home if you can go outside and go to the movies? This time, Rockstar has prepared even more hell for both the small and big screens: a racist show about a private detective fighting communists and other enemies of the United States, a local equivalent of COPS and, of course, advertising during which they play election videos gubernatorial candidates. Full-length films are one better than the other - cruel, mocking and at the same time hilarious. A striking example is “The Loneliest Robot in Britain,” a film in which the protagonist’s beloved was programmed to please male representatives. There is only one downside: once you turn on the TV or pay for a movie session, that’s all, consider that you have fallen out of reality for many, many hours.
Internet and social networks
As such, the Internet was present in GTA 4, but virtual reality began to shine in all its colors only in the sequel. Now the main characters not only surf the World Wide Web and clear out mail trash, but also actively use social networks. Many popular services received their computer counterparts: Facebook became Lifeinvader, and Twitter became Bleeter. The sites are well designed and will take you a huge amount of time to read. There are news resources, dating sites, and even home pages of famous TV shows and video games.
Rockstar would not be Rockstar if they had not once again tried to ridicule society in a satirical form. It turned out terribly funny. For example, in Bleeter you can read something like this: “I am a former gangster, but I have a vulnerable soul. I write poetry, wear dresses, go to ballet and cry like a real artist. I'm making vodka. Just like a real artist. #be yourself". And also Bleeter, like radio in Fallout, reflects people's reactions to the events taking place in Los Santos. So look here often, you will probably see something about yourself.
Integration social networks helped revitalize the city. In GTA 5, it’s quite normal, while walking along the beach, to stumble upon a granny taking a photo of herself or a passerby buried in his phone. Yes, you yourself can take out your mobile phone, take a photo of some landmark, and then post it on the Rockstar Social Club. Why not Instagram?
Sport is the key to health
By the way, Rockstar promotes violent behavior and drugs in their games. GTA 5 offers you a wide range of sports opportunities. The most obvious are tennis and golf. There are many specialized courts throughout the city (Michael even has his own court), and there will always be people who want to play. Inventory in hand - and go ahead, conquer the peaks. Although golf and tennis are only small part GTA 5, sports entertainment here is no worse developed than in many thematic simulators. The controls in the mini-games are simplified as much as possible, which, however, does not make them completely simple or unrealistic.
But that's not all. What about triathlon? Rockstar spared no effort or money: the competition, as in life, includes three stages - swimming, cycling and road running. And victory, believe me, will not come easy to you; you will literally have to pull it out with your teeth.
In GTA 5 you can finally try what you were afraid to do in real life, - do base jumping, scuba diving, ride cross-country on a motorcycle, climb a mountain, hunt animals with a rifle. Regarding the last point, Rockstar even took into account such little things as which side, downwind or not, you are approaching the victim. Well, of course, they will also give you a decoy.
Don't forget about less exotic sports, such as cycling: in particular, BMX (you'll have to work hard before you learn to perform some tricks correctly), ATV and jet ski. Why, if you want, you can even sign up for yoga! In short, GTA 5, like FIFA, - perfect option for lazy sports fans.
Meeting strangers
One day you may get tired of the wild lifestyle and go to the streets of Los Santos - to breathe fresh air, admire the girls in bikinis. But you won’t find peace here either: sooner or later, Michael, Trevor and Franklin will begin to stumble upon crazy strangers whom this city attracts like a magnet. If you watched Californication, then you roughly understand what we are talking about: journalists eager to capture the sexual act of a young pop diva, an elderly couple collecting personal belongings of stars, supporters of the legalization of marijuana handing out “samples” left and right... And to everyone I need your, yes, exactly your, help!
These tasks are in no way related to the main quests and are given out by random passers-by, but you are guaranteed not to miss them. The city of angels remains the city of angels even in virtual reality - madmen will overtake you wherever you hide. There is no need to look for adventures in Los Santos, just go outside and look around.
"Slaughterhouse" and real estate
And now about the rest. Did you miss "Slaughterhouse"? The favorite mode of all sadists is finally back. Switch to Trevor, find the desired icon and begin to temporarily chop up everyone and everything. Do you like flying? Sign up for flight school, and you will be taught this difficult task in no time.
And for dessert - buying up real estate. By acquiring an additional business, you unlock side missions. By paying for the McKinsey hangar, you can engage in illegal activities, namely the transportation of weapons. Golf clubs, houses, shops selling medicinal marijuana, and much, much more - all this is at your service. The acquired property will take a considerable amount of money from you, and at first, before the establishments begin to generate any income, you may even drive yourself into a financial crisis. Decide money problem possible in different ways. You won't be satisfied with robberies alone, so we would advise you to play on the stock exchange. But be careful - it’s important not to make a mistake here.
Contest
on Look At Me:
Win GTA V
Conditions of the competition:
Sport
Elite sports such as golf and tennis will be available in GTA5, Moreover, golf lessons will be held in a closed club for successful businessmen, show business stars and multi-billionaires. More liberal alternatives include triathlon, which first appeared in GTA: San Andreas, or cycling. For "lonely psychopaths and aspiring sex offenders" the game will allow you to go hiking in the mountains in order to "get beaten up" wild animals, thinking about women and lights next to the tent that are definitely going to kill you.”
Flashback:
In addition to the triathlon in San Andreas, in GTA 4 you could play bowling, billiards and darts with your friends and companions. And in GTA: Vice City there was a mission in a golf club with a golf cart chase and a murder with a golf club.
Shooting
In addition to shooting at live targets and gas tanks, the developers included competitions in the shooting range and hunting for wild animals. Having captured a police car, you can, as in previous games in the series, hire yourself as a thug and shoot several large drug dealers or terrorists for a good reward. Also on the official website of the game there are mentions of private security companies with which it may be possible to establish cooperation.
Flashback:
It was possible to steal a police car and hunt for criminals in all GTA series. Shooting range competitions were available in Vice City and San Andreas, but in the fourth part, an unauthorized shooting range could be set up in the Cluckin'Bell diner.
Extreme Sports
Players will be able to engage in base jumping and parachuting. In addition, you will be able to ride around the city on a BMX, as well as make long, deep-sea dives among sharks. However, you can protect yourself from them by first finding a submersible.
Flashback:
Before GTA 5, bicycles were the most important component of GTA: San Andreas. With their help, the heroes traveled through their poor, depressed area at the very beginning of the game. Pedaling increased endurance and gradually pumped up muscles. Parachute jumping appeared there - in one of the missions, the main character Karl even had to escape from a plane burning in the air. In the addition to the fourth part of Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony, one of the mini-games was related to base jumping.
Race
In gameplay videos, racing over rough terrain using different types transport, country races on ATVs and competitions on scooters. Surely, classic street racing will not disappear from the game. Another promising direction is racing with air vehicles, of which, judging by the screenshots, there will be a lot in the game.
Cars and tuning
“Thanks to the foresight of the automobile, oil and tire industries, Los Santos abandoned public transportation 60 years ago,” the official website reads, meaning that the car remains a necessity in the game. The metro, which was in the previous series of the game, may disappear (nobody used it, but it’s still a shame). Cars can be tuned in the LS Custom workshop. “After all, the main proof of good taste is neon,” say residents of Los Santos.
Flashback:
Car tuning first appeared in San Andreas - then players drove around the area with joy, bouncing happily on their lowrider, and could turn on nitro acceleration during races. In the fourth part of the game, tuning was removed, but it could be integrated into the game using mods.
Stock market games
For the first time in GTA series the user will be able to play on the BAWSAQ network exchange, as well as invest in shares of those companies “about which you have read a lot of good things” or engage in “insider trading and corporate espionage.” Most likely, the purchase of houses and other real estate from past games will not go away and will only become more widespread.
Flashback:
For the first time, the opportunity to buy real estate and, after several tasks, make it profitable appeared in GTA: Vice City. In order for the old ice cream factory to start making money, it was necessary to ride around the neighborhood in an ice cream maker’s van and sell drugs to the city residents who flocked to the ringing melody. In an abandoned film studio, it was possible to start filming films for adults. And so on. There was nothing as fun in other series of the game.
Shopping and care
behind you
Los Santos positions itself as a mecca of shopping and glamor. Elite boutiques and beauty salons are concentrated in the Rockford Hills neighborhood. Outside of it there are other shops, hairdressers and tattoo parlors of various specializations and qualifications.
Flashback:
In GTA: Vice City, for the first time, it was possible to exchange a Hawaiian shirt and jeans for another set of clothes, for example, a golfer's suit. In San Andreas it became possible to customize clothes, purchase accessories and decorate your body with tattoos.
Spiritual practices and self-improvement
As in GTA: San Andreas, characters can be kept in shape in gyms. You can take care of your inner world during yoga classes (among the positions of the local sensei are “Fucking Fish”, “Bent Down Camel” and “Happy Triangle”) or by contacting the nearest New Age cult through the official website. However, no one is stopping you from spending this time on the beach, sipping a cocktail and occasionally going out into the open waters on your own yacht.
Flashback:
In San Andreas you could meet a girl, Katie Khan, who practiced martial arts in the San Fierro park. She refused to eat fast food and worked as a nurse. After a few dates, the player stopped paying the fine when he was admitted to the local hospital and kept all of his weapons.
Radio and TV
Rockstar, always meticulous in matters of musical accompaniment, are ready to present radio stations for every taste: from country and punk rock to hip-hop and classic American talk stations. Among the DJs are old man Lee Scratch Perry (reggae), progressive electronica adept Stephen Ellison, better known as Flying Lotus, rapper Big Boy, electro-rock group Soulwax, Knight Williams and Stephen Pope from the lo-fi group Wavves. Anyone for whom listening to the radio is not enough can turn to the cable channel CNT or the animated series about heterosexual fighters against debauchery, whose costumes are painted in the colors of the rainbow - Kung Fu Rainbow Lazerforce. Promos of several radio stations can already be listened to on the Internet.
Flashback:
Among the most memorable musical moments in GTA are two R"n'B radio stations in San Andreas, a Russian radio with singer Ruslana as a DJ in the fourth GTA, as well as her colleagues Karl Lagerfeld, Juliet Lewis and Iggy Pop. A special pleasure in all episodes of the game was to listen to extremely absurd talk radio, where the most obvious cliches of American mass media were ridiculed, and listeners most often called in to solve their sexual problems, sell their family into slavery, or talk about crimes committed.
Besides
1 According to unconfirmed information, it will be possible to play GTA5 in a casino (one of the heroes, Michael, abuses this).

It’s already coming to an end, and if you don’t want to part with the character - the main character - you don’t have to be upset at all. All this is because a feature of the GTA game is the presence of a free mode, entering which you can do whatever you want. At the same time, simply driving a car through the city streets is not so exciting, so the developers threw it into the game a large number of entertainment. They are ideal for those players who have finished their career, achieved success and completely completed all the established missions, having spent a lot of time on it. And when looking for an answer to the question of what to do in GTA 5, players will be overwhelmed by so many entertainment options.
Entertainment in the game GTA 5
One of the most popular adventures, although dangerous because the police can catch you in hot pursuit, remains robbery. When choosing what to do in GTA 5, you should immediately focus on the first option. These are robberies. Indeed, the offer is tempting, especially when you have so much experience behind you in carrying out missions.
To try yourself as a robber, you first need to go home in a car with a partner, who will somehow cover you in case of danger or do some of the dirty work, and only then head to some boutique, atelier, or jewelry store. To simply take all the money, you need to point the gun directly at the seller, threaten and receive your reward. True, it will take a long time to escape the chase, but what an adrenaline rush it is!
You should not miss the races, which will be great entertainment if you play with a group, for example, with your friends. Such a pastime can also bring a lot of fun, especially since the pursuit of some kind of prize will be much more exciting than the race for the title of winner. In general, driving cool cars with friends around the city or outside is an excellent option for what to do in GTA 5. By the way, tuning has not been canceled, so anyone can try to improve their car beyond recognition. All you have to do is visit a car dealership, indicate your wishes regarding the appearance of the car and wait for the finished result in a couple of minutes.
If regular chases can get boring, then action in the air will be to the liking of many players. When entering free mode, you can steal a plane and surf the airspace of the game, however, there is one caveat: the player is not alone in the sky, and therefore the character can be caught or killed by the police as a particularly dangerous criminal. In general, you can achieve something honestly, but this is Grand Theft Auto 5 - why complicate everything?
Sports entertainment - what developers offer in this area
For those who have already tried racing and perhaps weren't too impressed with the results, or are simply moving on and looking for another way to have fun in the game, it's time to take part in the sporting events. But what about GTA 5 and where should you go? What types of sports do the developers offer?
So, classic sports games such as tennis and golf are prepared for the stars, elite and billionaires. They take place in closed areas of the game, and that is why they are so popular among the rich. If participants like this quiet pastime, then why not play such a game? funny toys? Moreover, while playing golf, a “Race” situation may arise when players get on golf carts and kill participants with a club. The spectacle is funny, but not for the faint of heart.
Extreme sports in the game
It has always been famous for its original adventures, and in the fifth part, after completing all the missions, the player can go parachuting and base jumping. It's dangerous, but pretty cool. Those looking for an adrenaline rush may enjoy others interesting options, such as diving into the depths of the ocean with sharks. By finding a submersible in advance, you can protect yourself from these jaws, but at the same time get a lot of emotions.
Also, anyone can climb mountains alone, and at the same time be beaten by the animals living in such an area.
Interesting entertainment for a company in the game
Of course, completing missions can be completed with some friend or partner, and therefore created for such participants special conditions what to do in GTA 5 for a group of participants. For example, anyone can go billiards or bowling, or just play a couple of darts. Those who are looking for how to go diving in GTA 5 should purchase equipment, and only then get to the coast, where they can have a blast.
No less interesting is the development of other options for an interesting pastime. For example, if a player likes self-improvement, then why not try a number of activities in this area? Physical form characters will be in the hands of the participant, as in GTA 5 it is possible by getting into any specialized city center.
Character: beauty and appearance is another branch of entertainment
Beautiful clothes, tattoos and finding your own style are other options to do. In GTA 5, you can visit beauty salons and boutiques in the famous Rockford Hills quarter. This is where you will have a chance to change to something more interesting and attractive. To get money for such purchases, in the meantime, you can try yourself on financial exchanges, one of which is BAWSAQ. Investing in this company can bring profit.
Those who are tormented by the question of whether it is possible to have sex in GTA 5 will have to hear an ambiguous answer. In an ice cream factory, you will often have to sell drugs, and moving into a closed area at the factory, you can make films for adults. Those who wish to participate in this will also have a chance.
Additional entertainment in the game
Of course, this is not the entire list of games; there are other options: for example, inhale weed. Relaxing at home with friends and smoking is a very fun pastime, especially since it is easy to do. You can do everything at home: smoke, smoke, just stand in the shower or, as in GTA 5, do “adult things” with a girl.
Outside your home, you can go to the cinema and watch something interesting there. As for the “strawberry”, a strip club is open to everyone, where there is definitely something to admire. If this seems boring and dull for the players, then perhaps they are mistaken - it is also very interesting and unusual.
Create your own missions - new from the developers
It would seem that there is nothing else to do in the game, but the developers never cease to amaze with the innovations that they introduced in GTA 5. For example, any gamer can create his own mission: chasing, shooting, fighting, finding, searching - all this is invented by the participant and carried out in special editor from Rockstar. In this case, the created racing scenario takes place in deathmatch mode.
Unique features in GTA 5
If you can’t wait to try something exclusive in GTA 5, what should you do after finishing it? The casino is just that unique option. Michael, one of the characters in the game, abuses this very much, so to visit such a place you need to find him.
Taking the position of governor is a very unusual idea, especially since competitors for this post have long gone beyond all boundaries of reason and are doing incomprehensible things, making life difficult for citizens. By becoming a leader, it will be possible to restore order, and such an idea will become very original.
Not to the deputies, not to the casino or to the club - where else can you go?
When you want something radically different, maybe it's time to rob the convenience stores and build your own business? Such an economic idea, of course, is difficult to implement, but, according to some legends, it can become a virtual reality.
An interesting way to spend your time would be to improve your skills. They are unique for each participant, so with a little training, a fighter can be pumped up to 100%. By the way, after playing sports, it’s easy to go to an arm wrestling club, where you can try to test your strength and fate.
Finding secret places is also part of the fun of the game, especially since they are quite impressive, dangerous or just fun. Finding UFOs, ghosts, cultural treasures and the past of the main character Carl can take quite a long time. Considering the complexity of their location, finding each secret exhibit can be incredibly satisfying. Why not experience such emotions if the missions are over, but you still want to play GTA 5?
Summarizing...
In general, GTA 5 has prepared a lot of interesting entertainment for participants who have already tried their luck in missions and completed them completely. Such adventures are interesting, so you shouldn’t refuse them, especially since you can view them and participate in the passage not alone, but as a team.
Such a large list of entertainment is suitable even for the most experienced player; all that remains is to try your hand, find something to do in GTA 5, and get incomparable pleasure from it.
