That would really make a good movie.

"GTA V" has a lot of "Heat" elements, but not enough that a screenplay wouldn't work. If you strip down some of the pop cultural elements from "GTA: Vice City" (The "Miami Vice" and "Scarface" elements especially)it could be done, but it would likely be flat. Here's what I say: both games are cinematic video games, so maybe they already had their movie treatment.

No, GTA 4 is the only one that would make a good movie. This borrows SOOOO much from Scarface and Miami Vice.

No, GTA III would make for a better movie. And then Vice City and San Andreas to make it a trilogy.

GTA 3 is very similar to the movie Payback with Mel Gibson.

Story wise, sure. But as for the look and feel, I don't think anything really comes close to the GTA games. Maybe at times, the Fast and the Furious movies.

"Maybe at times, the Fast and the Furious movies."

This is the best example you could come up with?

What the hell are you talking about?

Cocaine is a hell of a drug bro!

I'd rather see a GTA IV movie too.

Then, JohnMcCock would say that this movie already exists: Scarface.

Yep, this game borrows so much from Scarface, but thats what makes the game great. The feel, the vibe, its amazing.
