Grand Theft Auto V screens: fighter jet; bicycle; automobile

Having recently teased that jets would return in Grand Theft Auto 5, Rockstar today showed off one of the metallic birds we'll get to fly around Los Santos in its open-world murder simulator--a honking great fighter jet. The revelation comes from a trio of new screenshots, which also show a shiny automobile and another mode of transport missed in GTA IV, a bicycle. "More to come this week..." Rockstar said. That's good. The official site has blank spaces for another three screenshots, so that's probably what we'll see. A video wouldn't go amiss, mind. Rockstar hasn't confirmed platforms nor a release date for GTA V yet, but one imagines it'll hit PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. If you demand GTA-y stuff now, rewatch the announcement trailer.

On yer bike, son

        :) yes indeed \m/ good times. So which ones do you already own out of the list or are getting? Been a crazy month I can hardly keep up.
        
        Man when TL2, BL2 and GW2 drops I not sure what I am going to do, it will be insane.

        Darksiders 2 is taking up all my gaming time then i'm moving on to Sleeping Dogs. I love the end of console generations when PC gaming makes a resurgence. sure, they might be "just" ports, but they're GOOD ports.

        Nice I love that game to death its pretty much perfect minus the Shadow LOD @ 5760x1080 man if I could some how tweak that. One other small thing when you go into you menu system or save the FPS get all jacked up.
        
        The loot and spell trees are just freaking EPIC the game is fantastic my fav so far of the year.
        
        Yeah its the best of times, I think it may stick around this time and even be able to run in parallel with the new consoles if not surpass the threshold we shall see.
        
        Totally agree, SD is money its very good as well, gonna be good times.

        unfortunately sleeping dogs was not ported to pc controls well at all. mouse controls are schizophrenic.

  Haha, I love it! That fighter jet is a combination of a F-16 and F-18, they always blend influences in their designs, it's never a straight copy of one thing, especially with their cars.
