GTA 5 PC gets 4k support and first person mode @ PC Gamer

Now this has me excited for playing GTA5 on the PC.

The PC iteration will be the most visually impressive version of GTA 5, according to CVG's latest  hands-on account. GTA 5 will run at 4K resolution on PC, and all 'next gen' versions of the game will include a fully-supported first person mode, complete with modeled car interiors and proper first-person shooting.

As Dan mentions in his preview, "It's not just a case of plonking a new camera within a character's head, just because they could, but an extensive rework of the game's movement, driving and targeting engines. There are thousands of new animations for gun reloading alone, no to mention the first-person views of parachuting, carjacking etc."

First-person extends to GTA's sandbox online mode, which creates space for proper FPS modes within GTA. Multiplayer heists—a long awaited feature for console players—are also nearing completion.

4K has really become big news lately, panels are getting cheaper (rather fast I might add) and high-end graphics cards are adding proper support for the new resolution.  Seems I might be buying one sooner rather than later.

If anything, to play GTA5 at 4K  happy smile
