Going by the YouTube handle 'Fysho,' one inventive gamer has taken advantage of GTA V 's seemingly unlimited spawn code cap (predecessor GTA IV only permitted one vehicle cheat at a time) to create a series of explosive chained blasts. Utilizing the game's single-player-only cheat codes — available in full below — Fysho was able to pile over one hundred vehicles atop famous landmarks like Mt.

After Michael went into "retirement," Trevor relocated to Sandy Shores and decided to do what he does best -- be a redneck. He lives in a trailer, has terrible hygiene, is promiscuous with all the wrong people and associates with...let’s just say the "the wrong crowd." Even though he has delusions of grandeur thanks to his shell company "Trevor Phillips Industries," he’s a broke loser with little to show in life. After finding out that former accomplice Michael is alive and well under a different name, he decides to drive down to Los Santos to pay him a visit. Soon all three characters are thrust into the plans of a crooked FiB agent (guess what initialism that’s a play on) and some notorious gangsters in the city and have to work together to survive and bring in a handsome payday while they’re at it.

Another benefit to the multi-protagonist setup and also one of the biggest new features to mission portion of the game are heists. While the majority of missions are either driven by a single character or are like the aforementioned one, there’s a handful of heists sprinkled throughout.
