He then added: "You can approach Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online in any number of ways. If you're a hardcore gamer, you can find it super compelling. If you're somewhat more casual, you can find the experience super compelling. There is so much there now that you can very much define your own experience and create that for many, many hours of wonderful entertainment".
