GTA V mod lets you suit up like The Flash

The mod lets you walk on water and run up walls, but those colored streaks that trail behind Flash? That's the real killer feature.

Ever have a hankering to give up your car-jacking ways and run full tilt around GTA V's version of San Andreas? Per DSOGaming, a new mod from modder 'JulioNIB' lets you suit up as the DC superhero The Flash and do just that, plus a whole lot more.

Don your red tights and tap into all sorts of speedy features such as super jumps made possible by the character's super speed, optional slow-mo toggles to better follow the action, and walk over water and up walls (though some technical details do prevent you from scaling certain surfaces). You'll also gain the ability to regenerate health automatically and see colorful rays that trail behind Flash as you zip hither and thither.

And, I mean, sure, you can still hijack vehicles, but why would you want to? Show pedestrians and their antiquated four-wheeled mechanical carriages what you really think of them by running circles around them and creating tornadoes!

The Flash mod is up for grabs on JulioNIB's blog, where he also posts sundry other scripts that let you HULK SMASH all the things and swing around using Just Cause 2's grappling hook, to name just a couple.
