‘Rockstar releases trailer, the world stops to draw breath.’ That’s pretty much the headline being carried on the front of every gaming website in the world right now in the wake of the release of GTA V’s second trailer.

All joking aside it’s getting rather staggering just how massive Grand Theft Auto has become in terms of entertainment industry events, what with the first GTA V trailer getting 27 million hits on Rockstar’s YouTube channel alone – not quite ‘Gangnam Style’ perhaps, but impressive figures nonetheless, particularly given most gaming sites will host the trailer themselves.

A cursory glance seemingly confirms three main protagonists, parachuting, the chance to fly planes and the presence of pet dogs, so confirming most of the rampant speculation that's been emerging of late around the hotly anticipated title.

What more can I say? Watch, enjoy, speculate and get on board the hype train.
